We want you to have your LILY as soon as possible. Here’s our plan to achieve that:

The professional sourcing company we've partnered with has manufactured other gadgets, as well as high tech gear. They have an experienced team in the field to assist with quality control, shipping and and other logistics.

We have manufactured and brought other products to market, but for a project of this size and complexity we'll be using a pool of experts in the field to make sure the LILY is truly a 21st Century Cellphone CASE!

Also if by the delivery date your iPhone model has changed we will upgrade the Lily you purchased to your new iPhone model!!!

!!!AWESOME NEWS!!! We here at 3 Dots worked hard to bring you Lily sooner then it was planned. We are happy to inform you that we are moving delivery date, from March to January! You will receive Lily 2 months sooner!!!

Risks and challenges

No one wants to see a good idea executed poorly, especially one called the SMARTEST. We have worked extremely hard to ready this product for Kickstarter and full-scale manufacturing and fulfillment, but here are what I see as the risks:

MANUFACTURING: Creating the tooling to manufacture a product of this size is expensive and requires expert knowledge to get it right. There is typically a 60 day lead time to create the molds for a product of this size and this is where delays could occur. To minimize that possibility we're working with tooling manufacturers partners with a track record for prompt quality.

PRODUCT ADJUSTMENTS: As the LILY gets geared up for production, there will likely be some minor adjustments to improve the final product. Pre-production prototypes are made to test and refine the product and allow us to incorporate our adjustments and those suggested by experienced manufacturing partners. These will always be for the benefit of you, the consumer, and we will let you know exactly how and why any are made.

FULFILLMENT: Sometimes things go awry that can’t be planned for: a supplier misses a deadline, a machine breaks down, or a shipment gets lost. Those things could cause a delay. To minimize the possibility of manufacturing setbacks we will enter the manufacturing stage with at least one back-up supplier for each component pre-located and my product commercialization experts will help ensure smooth sailing from our suppliers and factories.

We will be working with manufacturers who have years of experience delivering excellent products in tremendous quantities. There will no doubt be some surprises along the road, but any obstacle will be addressed by combining our internal knowledge with external expertise, and an overall goal of making the best possible product for you!

Any pledge amount brings us one step closer to our goal. Help us make the 21st Century case the LILY product by clicking the ‘Back This Project’ button at the top of the page, or by helping us spread the word by sharing our page.
