    Packaging Question

    Being in the USA, I'd presume there'd be a large variety of packaging companies to choose from, even in your city/town. Make a mock-up of yourr product and take a drive out to these companies. Ask them in person about what packaging would work (not what they'd use), and then you decide, based on...

    Wanna buy a Bentley? CHEAP?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Sure, I'll take a second one for the hell of it ;-) I'll make room for it next to the Maybach by selling the Rolls. I'm not into those low-brow Royces anymore. Too ghetto for my liking.

    Update - Quite sick today. Still working hard. - Got stuck into the boring part - collating information and storyboarding the whole thing. Done. - Saw the voiceover, graphics, images and music bed in a mock-up 30 second clipfor the first time today. Wow, what a feeling! From concept to product...

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    Oh, and list the product on Amazon.com with your website linking directly to the amazon sales page. Drunken pongers from all over the US and the world can then buy them from you! Warning though: the Amazon commission is about 55% (yes, fifty-five percent) but they take care of virtually...

    Best way to stay positive in very negative times...

    MINDSET 
    I agree. News sucks big time, but I've been a little lost on my path this year, and quick visit to a news website was a short escape from what I was doing... but little did I realise how bad it is for your motivation. I'm having difficulty being as positive as I normally am lately, but I...

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    They're not too bad :-) Maybe make a batch and see how they go, and use the funds from that to get a ping pong ball manufacturer to make ones which are a proper flesh colour. Maybe have a 6 pack like the other guys suggested, but have two Caucasian, two African, and two Asian flesh-coloured...

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    No problem :-) You don't need to name the company that. Just name the product "Boob Pong" or something, trademark it and protect it in other appropriate ways, and away you go. You can name your company anything you like. Maybe buy an old beater of a car and glue a zillion boob pong balls to it...

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    Last one, I promise: Your product logo could be the top half of a naked woman with 3 boobpong balls where her breasts would be.

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    Accessories you could sell for your brand: a flesh coloured t-shirt with just a big nipple in the middle of the front and the back, and your URL under it. $20. Cost $3. It could be the new "Vote for Pedro" thing. Sorry for multiple posts, I'm busy developing my own product on a deadline and I'm...

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    Maybe also make your own limited edition bats/paddles/whatever they are called. Of course, the surface is flesh-coloured with a nipple on it. Sell four of those plus a pack of 24 boobpong balls for $30 or something.

    My potential business - what do you think?!

    Perhaps make the ping pong ball flesh-coloured and print a nipple on one side of it. Sell a "six pack o' boobs" for $10 or something. Distribute boxes to each business selling beer in the vicinity of a campus, every convenience store, etc. Perhaps print a small sheet of new games involving your...

    Elasticity: Your best friend

    I don't really have much time, but I can't read this without adding my two cents. Your effort in providing this info is very commendable, but the information is simplistic and does not take into account a number of factors, while using assumptions which are appropriate to some and inappropriate...

    It's amazing what a real deadline, motivation and the Pareto Principle (80/20) can do for you. I've done more in developing this product in the last two days than since it was slated for production a long time ago. It's come from being a single entry on a production slate with minimal...

    Thanks so much for the inside advice. There is a massive church near me which has 4500 members and its own school, but they are already excellent at their own product development, so I'll have to see what I can do. Maybe they'll let me in because I plan to donate a good proportion to a local...

    Thanks, Fanocks. I've already got some trailers planned for youtube and other video sites which will include a clip and then a quick plug for the DVD at the end. :-)

    A couple of great ideas I hadn't thought of yet. Thanks! The DVD is not music. It's just got bible-related stuff in an inspirational kind of format. I'm sure it already exists, but this is a two-day product design so I can't differentiate it that much, so I'm focusing on selling it well...
