The experience I could do over (Please correct the paragraph) Thinking about the experience I could do over I would name my nearest project. At the first stage I made a good analysis in regards with the product production: the best material to choose, the most effective technology to apply, the people to make the product and also I determined all key risks in regards with the process organization. Additionally I did some research about potential sales. I pretty well described the client profile and why they could buy the product. But I didn’t focus much on the market share and this was the key problem. The market share turned out to be much smaller than expected at the beginning and I had to make a lot of efforts to sell produced product. Considering this experience now I could say that I would definitely do more analysis about the market share and the sales channel.
