Business Concept Development, Plans & Funding
In the earliest stages, we often assist businesses with concept development to determine if there is a true market need and analyze the solution your product or service offers. A key component is to develop realistic business plans based on budgets, timelines, competition and viability.
We know that these plans are foundational and require updating to reflect market changes and business growth. We help our clients identify sources for start-up capital such as loans, grants, investors or determine the feasibility of establishing a public-private partnership.
Raw Materials Sourcing, Research & Development
The quality of your end product is only as good as the materials used. That is why Gobo spends time sourcing only the highest quality raw materials from suppliers we know and trust. We will determine all the materials needed to create the right specifications to produce your product.
By combining the raw materials and formulas, Gobo develops pre-production specifications of your product. This is the specific formula used to create your product from start to finish. Highly efficient, well- managed processes are crucial when developing new products. Prior to manufacturing, we will conduct research and develop the appropriate formulas to duplicate your product in mass production. This may include recipe creation, adaptation and testing or product guidelines for non-food products.
Gobo's standards of excellence are reflected in how we implement every stage of manufacturing. Gobo maintains a network of qualified packers to produce our clients' products. We will first determine which packer best fits the needs of each client and product by evaluating their relevant experience, track record and resources. We feel it is important that our clients and co-packers have similar philosophies to ensure a successful product partnership.
Quality Control Validations & Quality Assurance Program Implementation
Gobo will develop checkpoints for co-packers to have in place to ensure product consistency and safety. A set of standards is established that the manufacturer will follow during production. This will ensure proper product handling and that the product is completely traceable at all junctures. The program also certifies the ability to react swiftly and address potentialissues that may arise.
Project Management
Gobo appoints a project manager to oversee all steps of production including materials sourcing, manufacturing, inventory, order processing and distributing.
Processing Flow Charts & Costing Models
Timelines are developed to outline and catalog all steps and internal checklists involved in production. These flow charts promote timely and efficient production and include a listing of all key management involved in each area of development.
Gobo excels in creating and refining a thorough and strategic pricing matrix. The model will consider raw materials, production, distribution and marketing costs to determine a product price point that is attractive to both wholesalers and buyers.
Sales, Marketing, Media and Public Relations
