Comprehensive product design and development services

While 3D printing and other technological advancements in CAD design and manufacturing have changed the game, the core fundamentals of the product design process will always stay the same. Product design and development is often a non-linear process involving many revisions, reimaginings, and recalibrations. Even so, an effective product design process is characterized by three core phases: Analysis, conception, and implementation. These stages are not wholly distinct, as the designer moves between them during the design process. 

  • Analysis: This is the initial stage where the goal is to identify what problem needs to be solved by the new design and determine the most efficient route to solve that problem. This is a critical stage in the design process. The design problem becomes the product's selling point, and the value proposition can offer customers down the road. The product design and development are centered around providing an elegant solution to a real-world problem. This is the phase of the design cycle when preliminary research is undertaken to identify the problem and channel the direction of product development. 
  • Conception: The product begins to take shape. The problems identified during the analysis phase become the product's design goals to succeed in the market. The niche into which the product will fit is clarified, and focus is given to the design project. This phase represents the shift from identifying problems to thinking about the product that will solve them.
  • Implementation: This phase takes place in tandem with the conception phase. Brainstorming is the method, and innovation is the goal. The idea is to develop a limited selection of feasible and appropriate solutions. It now becomes possible to develop a plan for creating the product. Prototypes can now be generated and compared, materials selected, and the contesting solutions can be evaluated to determine the ideal implementation. 

We help our clients through any or all of these design phases. The right freelance product designer can guide your project through each step of the process. Our services are flexible to reflect the different points where inventors and entrepreneurs may need assistance in the design cycle. We offer professional, experienced designers who can assist you with the initial analysis and custom-tailored services to help you meet your project goals at any other stage of development. Let us know where you are in the design and development process, and we'll meet you there.

They say you can't judge a book by its cover, but they also say a picture is worth a thousand words, yet we keep putting covers on books!

Today, more resources are available for new inventors to receive the support they need. Cad Crowd believes in the power of new ideas and creativity, and we pride ourselves in supporting the efforts of new inventor ideas. 

Our designers can work with you to turn your concept into a realistic 3D rendering and develop your proposed item into a 3D printable STL file for prototyping.

We are a one-stop shop for your invention design needs as we work with product designers, freelance engineers, and rapid manufacturing firms to help you move through the product development process.

3D Modeling Services – 3D modeling and rendering are essential tools numerous industries use. For example, 3D modeling allows fashion designers to create clothing designs for virtual models. From there, you and your company can quickly and efficiently alter clothing as you see fit. As a result, you can test and showcase designs without going through the physical manufacturing process until you are sure about your design plans.

We understand that exceptional product design is crucial to product development, whether you are developing a new toy or building a unique electronic device. That is why Cad Crowd has partnered with a global network of freelance designers. We are dedicated to connecting you with world-class and pre-vetted professionals committed to creating product designs that meet the expectations of you and your clientele.

The benefits of outsourcing your product design services

Product designs let you see how your new idea will function, look, and operate in the real world. It also allows you to model your work for marketing and branding purposes. However, hiring a full-time in-house product designer can be expensive and time-consuming. This reason—among others—is why outsourcing your product design needs to a freelancer is the way to go. Here are a few additional benefits to outsourcing your product design services:

  • Find someone that directly fits your niche – Maybe you need someone to create a model of an innovative type of clothing or a specific electronic product component. Outsourcing your product design process allows you to find someone with this experience.
  • Save time and costs – You only pay for what you need when outsourcing your product designs. As a result, you can better plan out the time required for a project and budget to only pay for a specific block of work time.
  • Free up your current staff – Whether you are a staff of one or 20, your team must work on core business activities they are familiar with. Outsourcing the design process lets them stay focused on events specific to your business operations.

These advantages only scratch the service of how outsourcing truly benefits your company. If you are ready to outsource your product designs, check out our flexible matching process that takes the difficulty and time out of finding the best talent.
