How to find the right sex toy (or lubricant!) manufacturer for your idea
Looking for a manufacturer to help you create a pleasure product, vibrator, bluetooth sex toy, sexy handcuffs or a lubricant in a flavor you’ve dreamt up? At ARIES Brands, we know the process can quickly become overwhelming.
You’ve got questions like “How much does it cost to manufacture sex toys?” or “Should I manufacture my sex toy idea in the US or overseas?” “How do I find a supplier I can trust?” just to name a few.
Having tackled these questions, and many more, ARIES founder Sally Cotching knew there was a need for a US-based manufacturer of pleasure products who could help those with a great idea for a sexual wellness product or brand but minimal knowledge on how to create it. So, ARIES Brands was born.
At ARIES we specialize in designing and producing your own physical products from start to finish. With a wide network of industry-vetted, tried-and-tested factories, suppliers and manufacturers each with over 15+ years of experience, we’ve mastered the process of creating products so that you can focus on what’s most important - building your brand.
The benefits of finding the right manufacturer include:
Having access to expertise in the specific industry you’re looking to enter
Being able to save time and money on things like sourcing materials and managing production schedules
Finding the Right Manufacturer
Here are a couple of things you should consider when choosing the right factory for your product (and this is something we help with!)
The first step in finding the right manufacturer for your physical product is to assess cost and quality. You want to find a company that can produce your product at an affordable price, while also providing high-quality materials and workmanship.
Investigate manufacturer history and capabilities. It's also important to know how long a potential manufacturer has been in business as well as their track record of success when it comes to producing similar products as yours. Make sure they have enough experience working with similar materials so they know how best to handle yours!
Understand quality control standards used by potential factories before you hire them (and make sure these standards align with yours). You'll want someone who takes pride in making sure every item meets your standards--not just passing them off as good enough!
Questions to ask when deciding on a manufacturing partner:
What are your production capabilities?
What are your quality control standards?
Do you offer a warranty or guarantee on your products?
What's the lead time on product development, from initial concept to finished goods? This will vary depending on how much customization is involved in creating your product. It's important to find out how long it takes for a new design to go from CAD drawings to mass production so that you can plan accordingly with marketing campaigns and other initiatives related to launching new products or lines.
How much does it cost per unit? This may seem like an obvious question but some manufacturers don't include this information until after they've been hired by a client (or if at all). Be sure that before signing any contracts with potential vendors/partners who manufacture physical products that you understand their pricing structure and aren't hit with any hidden fees later down the road!
Finding the right manufacturer for your physical product is an important step in bringing your idea to market. It's also something that can be intimidating and confusing, especially if you don't know where to start or what questions to ask.
It’s important to start by asking the right questions and doing thorough research and planning. We’re here to help you turn your big, sexy idea into a reality!
