As you can imagine we (here at Shapeways) meet many very
\ninteresting people, visit fun and inspiring events, view lots of different
\nwebsites…..and in doing so gain a lot of market insight.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Many of them we use us to improve our product and services
\nbut many of them are more relevant for you as product designers.<\/p>\n

As you help us by offering many great designers in you shops
\nwe want to help you by sharing these insights and ideas for you to use in your
\nadvantage.<\/p>\n

I’ll be doing this more frequently if you guys like it…..<\/p>\n

The first insight is this:<\/p>\n

We get many requests from customers that they would love to
\nbe able to order our Ringpoem<\/a> as a ring or bracelet.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We will leave our Ringpoem Creator for the napkins so if you
\nare interested, design a beautiful ring and \/ or bracelet and offer it on the
\nCo-Creator Platform<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Once we have some good designs we will feature them from our
\nhomepage. <\/p>\n

\n

 <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Some tips:<\/p>\n

– Might be good to offer them in the different materials …. Summer
\ncolors<\/p>\n

– Keep the wall thickness in mind especially for the metals
\nand Alumide <\/p>\n

-Offer it via the Co-Creator Platform<\/a> 
\nso people have ordered the model before you start doing the customization work<\/p>\n
