Welcome to 2016 – it’s time to start writing out your goals and aspirations for the year! Here’s a few tips to keep in mind:
- Set Realistic Timelines: If you are starting your product from scratch, just know that it is going to take time. Depending on where you are in the inventing process, the time allotted will be varied.
- Know What You Want Before You Plan: This is a common mistake – you have to plan for the goals you want to achieve. Yes, things will come up along the way, but you need to be solid with your ideas and mission before you start planning.
- Handle Speed-bumps with Grace: Issues will come up. Problems will likely arise during the inventing process. That’s OKAY! When those speed-bumps happen, don’t get overwhelmed. There is help out there, for you. Never let anyone tell you that you have run out of options.
- Be Okay With Change: You may figure out a new way to innovate, finances may change, product details may change – it happens! If change is the best scenario for your product, you’ll know. Many products go through 4+ revisions during the initial design phase – don’t let it scare you.
