Great video. I was hoping to learn something new, but all I got was validation that I've been doing the right things. That's a good thing! Thanks! I'm sure these videos will help others who maybe haven't thought of these aspects.
Your videos are really helpful because you focus on the crucial aspects of risk management in design, production, and shipping. This advice is invaluable for startups looking to adapt their projects to minimal viable standards, boosting their chances of success. Great work!
Great feedback, thank you for sharing!
@@PredictableDesigns I can only agree to what @gileneusz said. Thank you for the great videos you make.
I have been thinking about a product which does something never done before. Not because there is not a market for it but because no one has thought about it yet. It's niche but enough to sustain decent sale. I know this market pretty well. The problem is I'm not an electronics engineer but a software engineer with an mba. I have been collecting information and your videos have been very helpful! Thank you!
Being a software engineer and having an MBA is a great combo of skills for doing this. No one has every skill needed, so you know software and business which is a great start.
Open ended conversations are hard. Learning to start them and engage with the other party is worth getter better at, even if not doing development. Shut up, play dumb and ask questions and pretty soon you'll know where you were dumb and where you aren't.
Great video!
Agree, and it's definitely hard especially for introverted people like myself. Thanks!
this has been very helpful information 🙂, i also have a hardware based startup together with some friends we are currently pursuing
Great to hear! Good luck!
Hello ! I wonder when should the product be patented ? Great video ! thanks for the help !
As late as possible:) I'd start with using just NDA's, then once you're ready to share it more broadly submit a Provisional Patent Application (PPA). They cost only a few hundred dollars and you can do one yourself. The PPA gives you one year of patent protection. Then after that year, if the product has proven it will be successful, then finally file a utility patent.
Also consider design patents which are easier and cheaper to get than a utility patent.
@@PredictableDesigns Thank you so much for your great insight, much appreciated !
fyi, a solo engineer built a cell phone brand in 2013. Fairphone. It is an opensource cellphone platform.
Interesting, thanks for sharing that, and I've never heard of the Fairphone before. However, developing an opensource platform though is a bit different than developing and manufacturing a commercial product. Thanks for commenting!
@@PredictableDesigns it is also a manufactured commercial product. It's just opensource so you could in theory build your own.
