Answer:
Hi Mark,
You worked in Africa, I suppose. You know how tricky it gets penetrating the market. Main constraint being the lack of awareness as also the advent of cheap "me-too" products from China. Promoting your product through NGO's is one idea that would make sense, but this too has its own negative effects, such as bureaucratic delays, etc.
I'm based in Mozambique and Tanzania. Do keep me posted about the availability of your Solar Flash Lights in these countries. I would like to see how they work.
All the best in your endeavor.
