Agree very much.

A good way to budget for modules.

dieter says:
"The pc boards of the new batch of modules (A-101-1,
A-101-2, A-138c, A-143-1, A-143-2, A-143-3, A-152)
will be manufactured about end of June (only the
boards) and our manufacturer asked about the assembly
order. We will ask him probably to assemble the boards
in this sequence: A-101-2, A-101-1, A-152, A-138c,
A-143-1, A-143-2, A-143-3). As the front panels are
not yet ready I assume that the first modules (A-101-2
and -1) will be available about end of July. But as
mentioned earlier we will probably ship the modules
not before the manuals are available. We had a lot of
checkbacks of users who received modules in advance
without the manuals. To answer these questions took a
lot of time - may be in the range of the time required
to write resp. translate the manual. So we consider
not to ship modules without manuals.

We also will probably introduce "the module of the
month". This will be kind of subscription period of
one month with special prices (probably 20% off) for
all orders we receive during the "module of the month"
period. This will help us to recognize the acceptance
of new modules and to get back the initial costs for a
new module (we manufacture at least 100/250 pieces of
new modules and this causes a lot of initial costs for
each module: developing charges, initial charges for
pcb, front panels and printing, fees for user's manual
and translation, and the costs for the electronic
parts and assembly of 100/250 devices)."







ANY COMMENTS
I THINK THE "MODULE OF THE MONTH"IS A GREAT IDEA.DO
YOU AGREE
