Question 1:
I understand that this questions will have many variables and is highly subjective, however, does anyone have a ballpark $ amount on how much it would cost (from concept to final product) to produce a headset type product with bluetooth and noise cancelling (including FCC and other licensing aspects)? So far, most of the product design firms i've gotten initial quotes from start at around $4k for just Industrial Design drawings. Note: I know there are products that already exist with these specific items, however, my current product concept adds a few more functions that would make this unique.
Question 2:
I'm currently self funding this project with the intent to create an Indiegogo or Kickstarter campaign so that I can go forward with the product development process. Is this a stereotypical, "which comes first, the chicken or the egg?" kind of dilemma? Should I prioritize creating a legal business, seek funding, then go forth or product development?
Overall note: I have received overall positive responses for my product concept questionnaire via SurveyMonkey (250 individuals, very broad and not specifically target; this will help narrow my target market).
Looking forward to your responses!
