Win the Crowd: Crafting a kickstarter pitch that reaches

Issue

Every year, individuals and businesses struggle to get the products they need quickly and cost-effectively. This is due to a traditional manufacturing process that is slow and expensive , leading to frustration and delayed projects. The issue is particularly relevant today when fast-paced innovation requires quick and efficient solutions to meet customer needs.

Consider a hypothetical example. A business owner, Sarah, needs to launch her new product but is limited by Manufacturing lead times . She has to wait weeks or even months to receive her products from overseas manufacturers, resulting in a delay in the launch of her new product line. This delay means lost money and customers for Sarah.

Another issue is that some customers need a custom solution. They want a product that meets their specific requirements , which is not always possible with traditional manufacturing processes. Sarah needs a more efficient and reliable solution that can meet her needs while saving time and money.

• What is the problem? Traditional manufacturing processes are slow and expensive, causing many projects to be delayed.
• What is the relevance of the problem? The problem is highly relevant today, especially when fast-paced innovation demands quick and effective solutions.
• What is the current solution for the problem? The current solution is to rely on foreign manufacturers, which is unpredictable, expensive and time-consuming. Small-scale in-house manufacturing using bulky machinery and outdated technology isn’t always viable either.
• Why does the problem exist? The problem exists because traditional manufacturing processes have been around for centuries and have become entrenched in industry. Change is difficult to adopt and takes time and resources.
