Transforming a creative concept into a real product may seem like rocket science but with some hard work and an action plan in hand, it is a manageable process. Join us to address 8 essential steps that will get your project on a path with a solid foundation.
There is a lot of conflicting information out there along with many traps and pitfalls. How do you know what to do first or next, where and when to invest, or what to do when you get stuck? If these are among your concerns, and you want to save yourself time, money, and aggravation, make this workshop your first stop.
For start-ups, entrepreneurs, creative artists, anyone with an idea for a new product regardless of prior experience or stage of development.
An information-rich session will cover the pressing issues that separate successful ventures from those that fall by the wayside. Includes:
• How to avoid the most common mistakes that can prematurely doom a venture.
• What steps you need to accomplish before deciding to invest your money.
• Decoding the development process one step at a time.
• A plan to validate the merits and prospects of your product idea.
• Lessons learned from 30+ years in the trenches of the inventing world.
