I need some marketing information. Please let me know what you think this is. It is a product that I am in the process of making. It will be ready for sale in May. I am curious to know if people will know what it is by the design. All input is appreciated.

I don't know what it is, I don't understand it, and I don't have any use for it myself.  It is, therefore, an assault-something and no one should own one and we need a law banning them.

Well, the unit on the right is or should be for improving your putting.
Now as far the unit on the left.........


WHY, I ask WHY is it necessary for us to be able to identify your "unit" before decideing on whether or not to buy ????

As loyal American consumers we've proven again and again we'll buy practically anything whether or not "it" has any practicality, value or utility.

I've just moved and can say totally without exageration that I have at least 12 Tons of completely worthless crap that it's impossible for me to live without.

How about a strobe light and mount? I think it has a battery compartment, or some other type of electronic access panel.

The thing on the right is something to hold up a magazine, like SAR, so that you can read and play on the net at the same time without taking your hands off of the keyboard/mouse.

The thing on the right is an automotive oil filter with a digital display to tell you when you need to change your oil. It will replace the ugly little sticker on the upper left hand side of your windshield and will make it necessary for you to crawl underneath your car to check and see if it's time for an oil change, while only increasing the price of filters by $163!

On the domed structure, is that a battery compartment, with two screws?

That would make it fairly small, in which case I'd say Ratters idea about a pencil sharpener is a pretty good guess.

Got any shots from a different angle, or can you give dimensions?

That is a battery compartment. It is about 4" wide and 6/7" high. Not a pencil sharpener. Thats been done to death.

So the oil filter takes batteries? Oh, I get it! It's a reusable battery powered oil filter!

After further study of the diagrams, I have changed my mind on the object on the right. It is not a magazine holder to be used in conjunction with surfing the net.

It is a single rifle rack that is to be mounted on the [b]Segway Human Transport[/b]

What the hell dude... its a wireframe drawing of some basic shapes. I can make something that looks exactly like it in AutoCAD in about 15 minutes. I mean seriously how subjective can you possibly make it? Don't get me wrong. It's a fun exercise... but there is a million things this could be.

Are you targeting the Hollywood market? Or perhaps San Francisco?

It's obvious that the device on the left inserts gerbils into your rectum, and the implement on the right removes them.

They can be assembled to form a contraption that will rapidly insert and remove gerbils from your rectum.

Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids, but rodents are not for your anus.

The drawing sucks.  We don't have tech specs.  You haven't shown us how the 2 pieces fit together.  Perhaps you are the one who is isn't too sharp.

Let me give you a little bit of marketing 101:

You don't present something to an unknowing public and expect that they will know what it does simply from its shape.  You present the product, show them (the public) what it does and how great it does whatever, and you tell them exactly why they must fork over $xx.95 to own said product.

There endeth the lesson.

Geez Redmanfms don't have  a heartattack. This is just a little survey for me to determine if this product looks like the function it will perform. I am also getting a kick out of the responses. Just a little fun. Thanks for the marketing lesson I'll bet you are a millionaire.
