If you want to know more about product development and elevate your engineering knowledge: 1. Listen to the productengineeringpodcast.de (in german) 2. Follow me for Threads around developing mechatronic products (english)

@TweetsOfSumit I have that working on my local machine using whisper 🧐🤓 I use it to transcribe my podcast and create text content from that. Should I create it as a service?

A tool we’re still missing: Automatic transcript of 🇩🇪 German podcasts and summarize all via AI. All solutions we tried are messy and won’t be able to properly transcribe a normal person speaking (including lots of English words). I smell business opportunity.

@jeremynickmoser Playbook

I've never done this before, but... I'm giving away our entire Social Media Playbook that has gotten our clients: • 3,000,000 followers • $70,000,000 in sales Completely FREE, just: • Like this • Comment "Playbook" & I'll DM you the full thing *NEED to be following me*

@erwanlier I think you should differentiate between work and being busy. Work: adding value to the customer. Anything else is being busy. There is nothing wrong with being busy, it should just not be at the expense of working.

Do you consider reading non-fiction books as work for your business? Genuinely curious.

Was meint ihr? Lädt das zum hören ein?

Mission Der Product Engineering Podcast bietet Ingenier:innen und allen Beteiligten in der Produktentwicklung nützliche Informationen, Ratschläge, Insights, Ressourcen und Inspiration für die Entwicklung großartiger Produkte.

Wenn man ein Buch liest, sollte man das neu gelernte auch anwenden. Da ich gerade ein Marketing Buch lese, überarbeite ich die Texte für den @ProdEngPodcast

@TweetsOfSumit @snocks_official Grundstoff.net CO2 neutral, Bio, fair, günstig und langlebig.

German friends: Wo kauft ihr eure Basics? (Boxer, Socken, usw für Sport, Sneaker, every-day, Anzug, etc)? War 5 Jahre @snocks_official Kunde aber das ist nur noch Trash. Suche eine neue Marke der ich 10 Jahre treu bleiben kann.

@ontourwithchris Sounds great! I love seeing your content on LinkedIn ;)

@GMSchweitzer Yes! 95% of our subscriptions come from content (Google, Social Media, Downloads on our Website, Content Newsletters etc.) We do not spent any money on Ads right now. Can’t say if this will be the case forever, but right now it’s the best way for us

Just started reading. Is this still useful today? What has changed since it was written?

Of course I make sure that my job is not affected by this.

Flexibility of your time is a luxury. I am working a 9-5 and building a podcast. Now I am pausing my 9-5 for 30 mins and having a call with a future podcast guest. Very grateful to have the opportunity!

@Patticus Wow, I am at Episode 17! Never thought that this is an achievement…

@levelsio The same thing here in Germany with some influencers selling pizza („happy slice“). Unfortunately the reviews of the quality are really bad…

This is really really interesting: 🍔 MrBeast Burger is a virtual brand tied to an influencer but executed by a third party for a % and/or licensing fee Kylie Jenner does same with her cosmetics brand as Coty produces it Rihanna sells Fenty Cosmetics and it's all done by LVMH It's like dropshipping for celebrities I was expecting this to work but the economic challenge is you outsource your brand and it can be hard to control the quality

@p_millerd Having to clean and maintain more space than you need is something I never understood. Why does everyone wants a big house? I prefer having the space I need and less things on my mind.

I agree. Why do some many people want extra guest bedrooms with a room they use 4 nights a year.

@TheJackForge Please fix it! They are not built the same today. The new one will never last that long. Plus, I believe products that are built and in use should be kept in use for as long as possible!

@TrungTPhan Very interesting case! This is also done when shipping large machinery. It is broken up into smaller boxes that can be labeled and shipped with minimum cost.

Tariff engineering is fascinating. Take Converse Shoes: a fuzzy fabric covers large sections of the sole, but it’s not for fashion reasons. The placement of the fuzzy material classifies the shoe as a slipper, which has a much lower import duty (<5%) than for wholly rubber sole shoes (30-40%). Today, tariff engineering — the practice of tweaking a product to get classified in a lower duty bracket — is commonplace in apparel and toy manufacturing. What was the first tariff engineered product in the US? Sugar imports during the end of the 19th century. White sugar had a higher import duty than dark sugar. So, some producers coloured white sugar with molasses to get a lower rate. Courts ultimately ruled that this evasion was not allowed (should have added fuzzy fabric instead of molasses).

New paper published! This study is part of our strain of research about the Engineering Graph, which offers valuable support in making design decisions throughout the product development process. researchgate.net/publication/37…

Impressionen vom Engineering Process Day 2023 Es war toll, viele alte Kollegen, aktuelle Partner und neue Kontakte zu treffen! Spannende Vorträge und gute Gespräche haben die beiden Tage speziell gemacht. #epd2023 #plm #mbse #engineering #produktentwicklung

Ich freue mich sehr auf meinen ersten EPD! Viele alte Kontakte wieder sehen und neue knüpfen, eine Session halten und spannende Vorträge hören: das werden zwei aufregende Tage! Ich hoffe wir sehen uns dort! lnkd.in/emgnHA8y
