OSE Growth Strategy

1. Document a $1000/day Extreme Manufacturing revenue model for bootstrapping R&D work
2. Educate candidates on this via immersion training. 3/4 of it is online, 1/4 is on site for the exam.
3. Publish e-Book on starting a 3D printer business
4. Develop operations and marketing for 3D printers. This involves:
   1. Positioning as R&D that matters, plus publishable R&D
   2. Lecture tours
   3. OSE Club startup
   4. Research abstracts to Dr. Pearce, with OSE Clubs and Curriculum Projects directly tied to Abstracts

   6. Recycling angle
5. Hire one person per subject area, as product owner for one of the GVCS 50
