About 5 years ago I invented a tool and technique that allowed the end user to speed up their computer.
It took off and we were selling as fast as we could make them for almost 3 years.
Over the past two years, sales have slowed. A couple of reasons.
1. It's a technical product that requires some risky operations, risky for the average person who is not real sure which end of a screwdriver to use.
2. I have not advertised at all.
3. Covid??
4. China.. copied my product and sells it for 25% less. (Identical copy at that)
Anyway, I have two mills and a couple of guys that can run them very well as well as a bunch of supporting equipment.
We could manufacture other things if we desired.
I dabble with guns in my spare time and I've noticed that every time I go to buy something it's out of stock.
From the lowly flash hider to complete guns and everything in between.
What are the quick pros and cons of making gun parts??
Thank you,
James
