From OEM to ODM to OBM

We all understand the importance of good products to compete and win business. In China, some traditional OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) business have taken a first step to transform to ODM (Original Design Manufacturer) by hiring product designers, so they can offer added values original product design services to their clients.

Lack of Original Design in China

However, the quality of the ODM services are limited to the capability of their product designers; though there are some good designers in China, most of ODM service are still lack of originality and remaining a culture of copying from the west.

While copying design require little investment and able to make some quick money in China, this is not a right practice if you want to build a sustainable business; not to mention the ethics and intellectual property copyright concerns.

Original Brand Development

As China economy slowing down, China government encourage local business to develop original products and original brands to add value, as well as going out to international markets.

This creates many challenges for Chinese companies to enhance their Original Design capabilities to compete in international markets, as the Intellectual Property laws are lot more stringent in the western markets.

Developing an Original Brand (OBM) is even more intimating, as it requires more original story and products, also investment in brand management & operation strategy.

MNC Consulting are Expensive & not Practical

Some established company will bring in international product & brand consultants to help develop new products and new brands. However, the service will cost them arms & legs.

Worse yet, I’ve witnessed many cases in MNCs (Multi-National Corporations), the consulting solutions are good on paper but lack of practical implementation consideration, so end up executed poorly and cannot meet expectations.

China Consulting are inexperienced outside of China

For a less established business, they will use lower cost local designers and consultants, who are mostly good at copying others but not original designs. And most of these local consultant companies are lack of experience in international markets.
