Inventing for the first time, after years of experience with importing
FTE SOURCINGI love product development / invention threads so I'll be following. I think there are even more features you could add to differentiate yourself even further from the competition - by offering designer prints, patterns, color schemes, etc. and also then venture into other accessories later down...- Eskil

Launching oKickstarter: A premium dress sock that can confidently be worn from the office to the gym
EXECUTIONYup. I had a relatively low goal (35k) on my Kickstarter too, which definitely helped because of how their algorithm for exposure works. Once the goal was met, it just went upwards from there. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk- Eskil

Launching oKickstarter: A premium dress sock that can confidently be worn from the office to the gym
EXECUTIONI was really impressed by the video you showed me at the meetup a few weeks ago. Stellar job on that! As I mentioned earlier though, the page loads pretty slow on mobile so you might want to reduce the number of heavy gifs and images and see if you can replace at least some of it with text.- Eskil

Shall I make the prototype myself? / Some good, trusted companies in the U.K?
Like @maverick said, 3D printing sounds like your best option starting out, assuming the product doesn't require to be heavy duty or take physical stress.

All Meetings Are A Vain Waste Of Time - No Exceptions!
RANTVery valid point, and we can't generalize and say ALL meetings are inherently bad. I do think they serve a purpose if done right. But the problem is, in most / almost all mid to large size companies, they are just a big timewaste, and a way to SEEM productive. Execution is really the problem...- Eskil

All Meetings Are A Vain Waste Of Time - No Exceptions!
RANTOmg... lol, meetings were the bane of my existence when I had a job. They were the most useless, sleep-inducing, and wasteful use of everyone's time. Let's sit around for 1-2 hours, 3-4 times a WEEK and discuss shit that we could easily have sorted out in a group chat or a few emails..... For...- Eskil

Starting towards the old dream at 40
EXECUTIONGood for you on sticking through and not allowing yourself to lose focus, despite the challenges. And also, those of us who are/were married with kids can all relate to the challenge of the work vs family balance. The single guys with no kids DO really have an advantage, and it took me years...- Eskil

How to build a $720k/year marketing agency by selling quizzes
MARKETINGI love this and how well you guys executed it.

What are people NOT talking about anymore?
