“I've been following the Institute of 3D Printing back from the time they were called rigid.ink. They always had good content.
There are two things (among many others) that I would point out. The first is a Friday Factory newsletter. There is always a nice story with a good point. You will learn something from it, or it will make you think about your business (and life).
The second thing is an "Innovative Product Accelerator" program. This program has clearly defined steps from market research to a sellable product. Ed is a great teacher, he is not concentrated on 3D printing alone, but on the whole process. He helped me to rearrange my work hours and increase my efficiency through his advices. I appreciate his guidance on every step of the program.
I highly recommend Ed and his IPA workshop.”
“Great work!
Appreciate the thought that goes into them
Interesting ideas and a different viewpoint.
Really enjoy most of the Friday Factory offerings”
“I have pretty much always gained something with these emails. Whilst they are never a short read, they are insightful, worthwhile, and relevant to my goals. I have always gained in my conversations with Ed. He has done his homework. He has laid the foundation ahead of me. He brightens my path with the mighty torch of his experience.”
“Ed’s Friday Factory is FREE GOLD!! Sign up for this valuable newsletter now. Ed is super clever, and combined with his practical approach, he delivers a wonderful product. We plug the I3DP all the time, highly recommended!! He has helped BeeThreeDee.com become a thriving business.”
“I have always looked forward to EDs look at what he not only knows but what he know’s
I can honestly say that the majority of the time I can see where he is coming from,
The wealth of knowledge that he has most of the time knocks The Bloggers on UTUBE completely Misinformed ! Because all they seem to do is give the Information that the companies want to hear for the what I would say would be the PAT ON THE BACK just to keep the freebie’s going and to keep the money Rolling in
I AM SUGGSEY AND I WILL SAY AS IT IS.!!!”
“I went to see Ed once when I was in the UK on vacation (he gave me some free filament samples). I still follow his writing. It's insightful, should be obvious, but to most, probably not. It always helps to hear it, out loud, again.”
“I've been a member at IO3DP for over two years, and in that time my knowledge of 3D printing has increased exponentially, at a pace I would not have achieved by simply trying to watch videos, etc. Ed has been there, done that, and has a wealth of information for the hobbyist as well as the entrepreneur. Jess never sleeps, and is right there when needed, on time, every time. The community Experts are truly experts with advanced degrees, and I'm pretty sure Luke walks on water in his spare time. All of the IO3DP community is relaxed and laid back, and a wealth of info for the novice and professional alike. IO3DP's partnering with other 3D printing professionals in the industry demonstrates business relevance and longevity and makes them one-stop shop for 3D printing design and manufacturing curriculums.”
“With hand on heart, IO3DP are amazing and worth the cost. The support from Ed, Jess, all the staff and also the members has been brilliant and very helpful and supportive. No-one has a 'high and mighty' attitude, just one of 'lets help this person to overcome their difficulties'. In every way, they are so helpful. I have no hesitation in recommending IO3DP to anyone, whether one is new to 3D printing or an 'old hand', they will be a great help in so many ways.”
“the friday emails are a welcomined treat in my inbox, and inspire me to get motivated to push all weekend, trying to launch my 3d business on the side.”
