Action Steps

Deciding whether you should make your own prototype of hire a professional is not a decision to take lightly. Your prototype could end up being the example you take to presentations. If you can put your prototype together with materials found at a hardware store — and it looks professional — you can save thousands of dollars in doing it yourself. However, if you prototype is more complex, you will want to find an expert to make your prototype.

If you decide to hire a prototype maker, research various ones. Decide what qualities are most important for your situation. For example:

Do you want someone local? This can be convenient if you want to monitor the prototype making with regular meetings and inspections of the prototype. This not critical, but some people prefer being able to oversee the process. If the prototype maker is not in close proximity to you, be prepared to add some extra time for shipping of the prototype, as the manufacturer may send it to you at different stages of production for approval and feedback.

How much do you want to spend? Find a balance between cost and quality. At this stage of the invention, you have made no money and still have no real guarantee that you will. On the other hand, as mentioned before, your prototype is an important step in the invention process and not something that should be thrown together.

Which of the prototype makers are most knowledgeable about the type of product you plan to have made? Choosing a prototype maker with experience in the industry will save you time and possibly money. They will know the “way things are done” in your particular industry, and you have the added bonus of that extra experience.
