Hello

I was thinking on starting with an android robot, but considering it's complexity and small market, it doesn't seem to me like an ideal product to begin with.

What does the I Ching say?.

Hexagram 14 -> 56

Lines: 1, 2

Interpretation: It seems there is lot's of potential with this idea, but the I Ching is asking me to focus on something. Not going from this to that, but focusing.

The relating hexagram of 56 (the traveler) suggests that you will not be considering this question of a robot as your first product for very long.

I see the emphasis being on the quality of product and merchant (marketing may be included in there as well). These days, those are niche markets, so I think your "focusing" is right on the money. Find a niche, fill it.

I keep getting train images, for some reason.

Anyway, good luck with your venture!

Thank you, it does makes sense to focus. My company is about robotics and so an android robot makes sense. Changing to another product could be more difficult than it seems.

It's interesting that you mention trains, because I have been thinking of that a lot. Trains have been a symbol of progress and the industrial revolution.

Maybe I will start a revolution. ;)

I just realized, the seed of the train impressions may have been planted from line 2: big wagon for loading. There's also the fast moving aspect of fire upon the earth, in 56.

I've found line 1 sometimes refers to critics and naysayers. It's ok to pay no attention. I would consider a visionary as possessing great vision.

About what to focus on, if you're already focused on android/robotics, apps software is the hottie right now, the proverbial fast mover, but it doesn't carry heavy loads, unless it refers to efficiency and/or bandwidth. If you're envisioning real time robotics, finding a specific niche within that general field is still about focusing on that need.

In general, inside-out marketing works by convincing the public that they need this product. Outside-in marketing observes and listens to what the market is asking for, and provides it. Though there've been some home-runs with inside-out marketing, the vast majority of successful ventures happen from the outside-in. But either is possible. You do need big wheels, axil and wagon to sell a new idea.
