Jon Naylor Email & Phone Number

Since 1995 I have been involved in designing, manufacturing, project managing or selling technical products.From an apprentice to a senior manager, I’ve walked every step of the journey in businesses of all shapes and sizes in the UK, USA and Spain.Along the way I’ve tried to learn all I can about how ideas are defined, designed, developed and ultimately dragged across the finish line into saleable products.In July 2021 I got the opportunity to put everything I’d learned from 20+ years’ worth of projects into a single product with a UK tech start-up.That tested me in ways unlike any job has ever done before.I built a small team and together, with a bit of help from our friends, we turned a prototype into a fully approved product which was deployed at opposite ends of the globe.During those two frenetic years I saw with my own eyes the enormity of the challenges and issues that the start-up faced whilst trying to turn their idea into a product.Simple issues that larger businesses deal with easily can become an Everest for start-ups.In July of 2023 I left that business convinced that other start-ups making products face similar challenges and may not have the experience, resources or contacts to solve them all.Building a product, reducing risk and increasing the value of the business is a process. Like any process, it is definable, manageable and repeatable.In a start-up that process needs to be done as quickly as possible before the money runs out.If you want to learn more about the common challenges and the areas I can help with, check out my website at:www.fiverisetech.com If you are a founder or working in a tech start-up looking for advice drop me a note at:jon@fiverisetech.com
