✨ Stuck Between "Genius Idea" and "How Do I Manufacture This?" I Can Help. ✨ Product development is confusing. Patents ARE overwhelming. And new freelancers will ghost you mid-project with a nonfunctional prototype that's not manufacturable. My Stats: Senior Industrial Designer | 14+ Years | $50M+ in Client Revenue | $756K+ Raised on Kickstarter | $1.5 Million ecommerce brand co-founder. Got a brilliant idea? I turn your napkin sketches into money-making products fast while you avoid the $100K+ mistakes I've already seen (and fixed) a hundred times. I've personally launched my own products too, so I know the exact road you're headed on from idea all the way to a customer holding something they love and buying again. Not happy with the first draft? I'll keep designing until you love it. 🚀 Real Results That Speak for Themselves ✦ 1 Billion social views. ✦ 137+ products designed, developed, and launched to market ✦ $100M+ in total revenue generated for product-based businesses ✦ $756K+ raised on my personal Kickstarter product launch ✦ $10M+ raised on client Kickstarter product launches ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 47+ 5-star reviews from founders who've successfully launched "Jake's a FORCE. He's helped us raise over $756K+ on Kickstarter, developed all the SeatMate products, Kickstarter funnels, Facebook Ads and handled supplier sourcing and negotiations." —Andrew Mueller, CEO SeatMate Here's what you get ✦ End-to-end product design & development. From concept to factory-ready files ✦ Industrial design & sketching ✦ CAD modeling & photorealistic 3D rendering ✦ Rapid prototyping & 3D printing ✦ Functional prototype development ✦ Material selection – not sure what material to use?

Connections to trusted affordable IP lawyers ✦ Someone who's made the mistakes already so you don't have to, and deeply cares about your success I Keep You Aligned Every Step of the Way I'll ask the questions others miss, propose alternative concepts that actually work, and make sure we're 100% locked in on your vision while keeping it cost-effective and wildly profitable for your business. When we work together, you don't just have someone who knows how to create the files. You have someone who's already lived the full journey, collected notes from inside Fortune 500 brands, built a million-dollar product of their own, and knows every pitfall waiting between here and launch day. ✅ Ready to Launch Your Product? Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur with a napkin sketch or a brand ready to scale, I've got the experience and resources to make it happen. Send me a message or invite me to your project. Nothing makes me happier than to help someone create and launch their product. Product design and development is my lifelong obsession disguised as a career. :) Let's build something together. - Jake Singer Keywords: Industrial Design, Product Development, CAD Modeling, 3D Rendering, Prototyping, Manufacturing Strategy, Packaging Design, Kickstarter, Product Launch, Consumer Products, Vendor Sourcing, SolidWorks, Product Visualization
