Safety first

Safety comes first!

Here is the cheapest way to guarantee the safety of your products with an example : The safety socket.

Safety sockets should protect you

Unsuccessful safety socket plugging attempt
Careful plugging process
Plugging in safe socket is tricky
Blocking safety socket
Desperate attempt tp plug in
No way to plug
Not using is always safer

Next time you meet a problem to plug in a safety socket think about me.

What’s a Niche Market ?

A niche market is a market where customers pay more to satisfy specific demands. This looks like an enviable place sheltered from the dog fight simply focused on  prices.

Niche means also doghouse in French
Full dog house
beware of a too narrow nich market

Unfortunately it also attracts competitors and the dog fight is back. From my own experience as a group controller it’s hard to keep away competitors once they have specialized in the niche products. It’s just as difficult for you to move on yourself. The worst is when a refurbisher and second hand dealer still dreams to join the club when it’s already overcrowded.
