In this episode of the Invent With Me podcast, we're tackling two of the most critical aspects of bringing your invention to market: manufacturing and selling strategies. If you've ever wondered how to navigate the complex world of product creation, especially when working with overseas manufacturers, or how to effectively sell your products, this episode is packed with insights that can help you succeed.
Introduction (00:00 - 02:00):
We kick off the episode by setting the stage for what’s to come—an in-depth discussion on the challenges and strategies involved in manufacturing your product and getting it into the hands of customers.
The Pain of Manufacturing (02:01 - 18:00):
Manufacturing a new product is rarely a straightforward process. We delve into the challenges faced when working with global sourcing agents like Citi Global, from initial prototypes to dealing with frustrating delays and unexpected cost increases. Learn why inventors often struggle with overseas manufacturing and why it’s essential to find the right partner who truly understands your product.
Grant shares his experience with sourcing agents who are more focused on volume than helping small inventors.

We explore the complexities of dealing with trading companies on Alibaba and the importance of knowing the true cost of your product. Grant discusses his experiences with trading companies and how to avoid common mistakes when sourcing your products fr
