The Product
Innovation
Is this a truly new product that you can’t find on the market? Or this a product that defines an entirely new product category. In some cases, the combination of several features into one or the introduction of a new feature to an old product are also considered to be an innovation.
Bed tables, lunch boxes, and other similar products that might seem similar to Couch Console…But it will eventually stand out with its modularity, adjustability, portability and design! You don’t usually get to charge your phone with your lunch box or to place a small box on your pillow for your movie snacks and remote control. Couch Console is a new solution to the old problem of convenience all of us have been facing for some occasions.
Competitiveness
How much better is it than the competition? Is it faster? Bigger? Cooler? More affordable? There needs to be a solid reason why you should back this project over any other.

The Team
Reliability
How capable is the team? Have they developed something like this before? Do they have crowdfunding experience? Manufacturing experience? A lot of campaigns fail to deliver their product because they don’t know what they’re doing.
Couch Console is the very first crowdfunding campaign of the Ebite team. As they mention, they are a small team of designers fond of new challenges. It is the pleasure they feel when having their favorite beverage in the car that drove them to step ahead in the luxury of life and come up with a cupholder set for a couch!
They have designed a humble website to symbolize their first step in the world of crowdfunding. Based on the $494.616 they have managed to raise within just 8 days, one can assume backers have belief and sympathy towards them!
The campaign story page represents a thorough explanation of the details and the specifics of the product and introduces well-justified reasons to incentify the potential backers to support the Couch Console project!
We’ll keep monitoring the progress of the team to explore more about how they do in their future activity and whether they manage to maintain the positive vibe throughout the time the campaign is live and also after that!
Attitude
How transparent are the campaigners? Do they give their backers valuable updates on their progress? Do they engage with their backers? Crowdfunding is all about community, sharing information and building a meaningful relationship with the people who fund your project.
Let us see how the team members do in communicating with their backers.
A suggestion by a backer, and a welcoming reaction by the team. Also, it is crucial to notice that the majority of the comments are replied to within several hours.
More suggestions and the team meets to be trying their best to satisfy the needs of their backers.
Overall, the team puts a reasonable amount of effort in getting back with their backers, catching up with their questions, and considering their recommendations for future projects. This demonstrates some high level of responsiveness and promising customer service for the first crowdfunding project.
Conclusion & Public Opinion
For a new team like the Couch Console has, the beginning seems to be promising! A responsive customer service, a unique and original solution in the form of an innovative product, eagerness to be environmentally sustainable, and a dedication to creating a reliable brand image.
The team is new to the public, therefore, the public is still in the stage of exploring the team, the product and the mission of the brand.
It can, however, be assumed that the team has already managed to earn some trust from the backer community as they keep actively supporting the project and contributing to its progress.
