Mixing Products and Services - It CAN Be Done!
It's been said that the road to successful products is littered with services companies that have tried and failed. It doesn't have to be that way! Join moderator Cynthia Gilmer, founder of Opus Plus, Inc., and Certified New Product Development Professional, as she talks with three panelists who are succeeding at developing products out of services companies. Learn how they've faced the challenges and see how they've dealt with key questions such as:

Do I seek investment or bootstrap?
How can I deal with the cultural differences between services delivery and product development?
How do I organize to achieve success?
How do I capitalize on synergies between products and services without affecting the success of each individually?
