New Goals and Manufacturing Update
Kickstarters,
Thank you all for the continued pledges and the tremendous support you have given us! Here is a quick update for the end of the week to let you know what's happening.
Manufacturing
I am meeting with the manufacturer on Monday morning in New York and we are issuing a PO to begin production. Building of the molds will take until about when the project date ends. So we expect to be running production units within a few weeks after that date. At this point, your pledges are about 2000 units. But don't worry. We have discussed with the factory 10,000 and 50,000 as well. So there will be plenty of Bobine to go around for all of the new backers.
In our meeting, we will also be setting up our production schedule of how many units they will be producing per day and the testing and inspection process. These steps will ensure that your Une Bobines arrive in perfect condition.
New Goals
You spoke and we listened! Our factory is finalizing prices for a 3 foot extension cable. I hope to have the final details by Monday and will post an update as soon as the costs are finalized. But I just couldn't wait that long to tell you!
With the success of this project, we expect to have additional items added over the next few weeks also, so stay tuned!
Don't forgot we need your help with the Buckyballs/Brookstone contest. You can vote once per day at http://www.thewilliammcshanefund.com/vote/
I'm still free much of Monday and would love to meet some of you over coffee. Send me a message if you're interested.
Thanks Kickstarters,
Jon
