That is super impressive. This means you must be looking at selling big numbers?

I am running a small company that is making e-paper calendars and smart screens.

(You can check them out here: https://shop.invisible-computers.com/products/invisible-cale... )

My number one struggle is that at the low volume I am selling, my choice of screens that I can procure is extremely limited and expensive. This then also drives the price of the final product.

I guess I am kind of stuck in a local optimum (niche product) , where the other optimum is a high-volume, more mass-market product which would allow me to source a cheaper screen at higher volumes.

I am obviously super curious what kind of screen you are using and who you are sourcing it from. I totally expect that you don't want to share, but on the off chance that you want to - my email is mail@konstantinschubert.com.
