About The Product Developer
Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Shawn Tait and my passion is, and always has been to solve a physical problem, create a solution to the problem in the form a needed product, and then successfully bring these new product concepts to market and enjoy the rewards.
As a Manufacturing Engineer exclusively working with New Product Development Teams, I successfully developed patentable new products for Siemens (Medical Device div.), Bendix Electrodynamics (US Military Vendor), Echlin Corp. (largest Automobile Aftermarket Parts Mfg.) and the Aerospace and Racing Industries.
Please allow me to give you all some perspective of myself and brief history. Do you want to hear the longer 2-3 minutes " Go-Fast Story ". You'll find it in the Appendix section, it's a page long... it's a fun life.
At the age of 56, I am a proven successful entrepreneur of 25+ years’ experience, small business owner, manufacturing engineer and consummate realist. Product Concept to Market Success is what I do best.
Why I Am Here :
Allow me to give you some perspective of myself and brief history. Normally I self-fund my new product ventures… however after the economic crash of 2008, this depleted all my resources.
Three years ago, I began to create conceptual idea and the initial product design for a mass market consumer product that would be virtually immune to negative fluctuations in the economy. And for a recession proof business and or products that would still be in high demand during these downturns in the economy.
Over the last two years of full-time 80+ hours a week of using the Premier CAD Software to design, I developed, and tested multiple iterations of CounterWatch™. To help finance this project, I sold my rare vintage motorcycles collection of over 25 collectibles valued at over $150,000 to self-fund CounterWatch™ from concept to patent pending status, and ready for market exploitation.
I Shawn Tait the Inventor, has provided the value of concept, 2-3 years of unpaid development time, designing and prototyping product, and to patent pending status.
The Pet Industry provides the stable platform for steady income revenue for the right product that I was looking for. CounterWatch™ is that right product !

About The Market
Well I'd like to take a moment to speak about the Pet Market and the Market Potential of the New Product CounterWatch™.
After presenting you with this product, I am confident you will see the Market Potential of CounterWatch™, and the profits it can generate for our team.
Real Quick !...
How many Pet Cats are in the USA ?, how many in other top ten major countries ? (127M)
I could tell you exactly, but we all know to say the least, it's a lot !
USA (95M*, 76M***) | Top Ten Major Countries (127M*) That's 193M* Pet Cats in the World's Top Ten Countries.
Over one third of Pet Cat Owners in the USA, own 2* or more cats, and over one quarter of Pet Cat Owners, own three or more cats...
People love and spend money on their beloved cats... AND Lots of money... from fancy pet foods, fancy pet toys and while the pet owner typically also likes their fancy kitchen countertops, fancy floors and carpeting, and fancy furniture (clean & intact)... Unfortunately... our feline friends often do not respect these cherished belongings the same way as us humans do.
Well we all know the rest of the story from here...
So... What do you think is the number one, pet-peeve of the cat owners ?... yes you are right, getting on counter tops, also soiling and spraying areas, and, oh yes also climbing on drapes and hanging out or escaping from entry/exit doors.
Pet Cat Owners have been searching forever for a low cost pet deterrent or training device and or method, that can prevent cats unwanted behavior and or intrusions, including all the above "pet-peeves" we talked about above.
You know... if such a device and or method became available, perhaps the pet owner may want "to use this" in the kitchen, the living room and the bedroom etc.
No-doubt that once a pet cat owner finds something that works so effectively as CounterWatch™, they will want to purchase 2-3 of the CounterWatch™ Deterrent and Training Devices and place them strategically though out their household, for total household coverage.

“ Even during the Great Recession, which slowed demand throughout most of the retail sector, the industry continued to yield revenue growth. This trend was mainly driven by an increasing number of pet parents, or pet owners who treat their four-legged friends as family members. “
“ In the five years to 2014, industry growth has largely been attributable to higher pet ownership and accompanying demand for pet products. ”IBISWorld 2014 US Pet Industry Report
It's a fact !... the pet industry continues with strong annual growth every year... and is proving to be immune to any lack-luster economy.
CounterWatch™is that right product !

" The Ultimate… Pet Training System & Deterrent Product “
“ Physical Products, for a Physical World, for Physical Real World Profits “
About The Product : CounterWatch™
CounterWatch™ is a portable hi-tech animal deterrent and training device, that is a compact portable low cost, and is an extremely effective solution for training and deterring indoor pets away from off-limits unwanted areas or unwanted surfaces.
New Product Details : The ALL NEW ... CounterWatch™ is a High-Tech Cat Deterrent System that deters cats to stay off of your counters, table tops, furniture, climbing curtains, floor areas and from hanging out at your entry door (as they just don't like being squirted or misted with simple inexpensive water).
CounterWatch™ has up to 5 user modes (which keeps the cat from assimilating to the same deterrent event). The Spray and or Audible Sound Deterrent is triggered by a PIR Infrared Heat Sensor (with a detection range of 1-5 feet). CounterWatch™ utilizes a user settable programmable mode microcontroller that is powered by 4 long life standard AA batteries. Small footprint allows CounterWatch™ to remain in place and not interfere with pet owners using the counter, table tops and other use areas. CounterWatch™ is the only ergonomic and esthetically High-Tech Cat Deterrent System designed to please even the most discerning pet owner.
Patented Pending Shielded Sensorand Dual-Action and Dual-Use Pet Deterrent System Shielded Sensor : Prevents unwanted triggering of deterrent device by human Dual-Action : PIR Infrared Detection Sensor Activates Spray & Sound Deterrents. Dual-Use : Positions Both Horizontal and Vertically.

How the Competitors Product Works and Does Not Work
Audible Noise Deterrents - Have a major limitation with today's modern home full of audible sounds, beeps, voices etc., such as from microwave ovens, coffee pot timers, voices on radio-TV, and other sound emitting electronic devices. The pet to be deterred therefore quickly assimilates to a single audible deterrent sound, as the pet is unable to differentiate from device deterrent audible sounds from environmental or ordinary daily household sounds and noises.
Mats-Audible Deterrent - Place Mat in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks on Mat, Mat Senses Pet, Emits Audible Sound/Beep. Pet to be Deterred Quickly Assimilates to a Single Audible Deterrent Sound. Must be Removed and Stowed before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.
Mats-Electro Shock Deterrent - Place Mat in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks on Mat, Mat Senses Pet, Emits Electric Shock. Take Care Around Young Children. Shocking Your Pet is Not Cool ! Must be Removed and Stowed before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.

“ Physical Products, for a Physical World, for Physical Real World Profits “
Mats-Prickly Deterrent - Place Mat in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks on Mat, Mat is Constructed with Nail Like Protrusions. Effective for Horizontal Surface. Must be Removed and Stowed before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.
Mats-Sticky Tape Deterrent - Place Mat in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks on Mat, Mat is Coated with a Sticky Chemical Adhesive Similar to Insect-Fly Paper. Effective for Horizontal Surface, However Sticky Mat may Accumulate Debris and Need Frequent Cleaning. Must be Removed and Stowed before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.
Spray Air Devices Deterrent - Place Device in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks in Sensor Range, Device Emits Short Blast of Canned Air. Effective for Horizontal Surface, However Consumable Aerosol Deterrent Refills make It Absolutely Cost Prohibitive To Operate (i.e. A one stubborn pet cat in a household may trigger canned air blast usage of 2 or more proprietary and expensive canned air deterrent refills @ $10 each weekly; that's $20 a week !... for one cat !!). Redirect Sensor or Turn Off before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.
Spray Scent Deterrents - Current Market Products Vary in Their Approaches and Chemistry. And are Sold Typically in a 8-12oz. Sprayer Bottle for Spraying Scent Deterrent in a Small Off-Limits Area. Some are Effective and Some Not.

Business Plan for CounterWatch™
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
PRODUCT DEVELOPER GOAL : To launch CounterWatch™ the product, solicit and obtain
both domestic and international licensees, to manufacture and or distribute CounterWatch™
under direct exclusive license. Scale to international markets for maximum sales and profits.
As an experienced manufacturing engineer, new product developer and entrepreneur of 25+
years, my original intent was to license CounterWatch™ and forego the typical route of
manufacturing, marketing, order fulfillment, that entail large financial risk, with overhead cost,
inventory costs, financing customer purchase orders, and waiting for the receivables. Below
graph shows comparatively between two Business Models, the low risk Licensor Business
Model, and the higher risk Manufacturing Business Model that generates mass profits.

PRODUCT PRIORITIES & GOALS : Reviewing the Product Launch Phase - Tasks, Events, Costs & Timeline Table, indicates the priority number of each Task, Event and Cost.
After Task 3B, the Media Blitz Campaign, it would be ideal, to quickly obtain a Exclusive
Domestic Manufacturing and Distribution Licensee Agreement with a major retailer or
distributor, 4-7. This would meet the developer's goal for the domestic marketplace, and
would preclude from having to proceed to item 8-10, the Domestic Trade Show Campaign.
Primary focus is securing immediate mass market domestic distribution for CounterWatch™,
reaching the domestic goal of signing a Exclusive Domestic Manufacturing and Distribution
Licensee Agreement with a major manufacturer, distributor or superstore retailer.
While diligently executing the above Primary Focus, if available resources allow, contact a
Manufacturer's Rep or recruit a contract hire, to seek, sign and secure International Exclusive
Manufacturing and or Distribution Licensee Agreements, licensed by Country or Region.
With USPTO Foreign Patent PCT Filing completed, 1C, CounterWatch™ can be
aggressively marketed in major world market regions, such as the European Market, South
East Asia Market and South American Markets. These markets must be aggressively
pursued, and not overlooked as to their importance to generate mass sales and high profits.
WHEN THE GOALS ARE MET : With the Developer Goals, and Product Priorities & Goals
Met, I the Product Developer, will be off to the next project, and free again to bring another
new and profitable product to the marketplace.
BUSINESS PLANS : Business Plans are just that, a plan, based upon current conditions,
thoughts, and or forecasts. So as both in life, and in business, as conditions and status
dictate, we learn to make changes, adjustments, and compromises to the business plan.
This ability to revise a business plan is essential to adapt, conquer, and generate high profits.
ALTERNATE PATHS AND PLANS : As a experienced and successful product developer,
and small business owner of 25+ years, I know plans sometimes need to be changed and or
expanded, so with that said, I will describe in the below table, several "what if scenarios" that
I can envision in the market exploitation process of successfully bringing CounterWatch™ to
the mass market, and achieving highly profitable results.
Please review the proceeding...

“ Physical Products, for a Physical World, for Physical Real World Profits “
Reaching the Markets
Worldwide market exposure will be accomplished through Personal Contact within Pet
Industry and Domestic and International Trade Publications, Pet Products Industry
Association, Social Media Campaign, Internet Web Sites, Consumer Interest and Pet
Magazines, and a General Media Blitz Campaign to Main Stream Media.
PERSONAL CONTACT WITHIN THE PET INDUSTRY
I have found over the years, that personal contact with key professionals within the industry,
the media, and speaking to various manufacturer and distributors, to always be beneficial in
obtaining current and vital information, locating Industry contacts and sales leads, and often
providing a direct path to where I want to go, to achieve my market success and profits.
PET PRODUCTS INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION – APPA
Membership with American Pet Products Association provides members, with direct contact
leads with key domestic and international distributors and manufacturers representatives.
DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE PUBLICATIONS
Knowing the Product Launch to Market Phase was upcoming, I contacted and spoke with
several key individuals within the international and domestic pet industry news and media
organizations, I was cordially and well received, and all seemed genuinely interested in
hearing the very basic and generalized definition of my new and exciting automatic pet
deterrent product CounterWatch™.
In my conversations with media sources, I noted that my product is soon to be patented in
which at the point, I can explain about the product more in detail. All contacted specifically
asked when I am ready to launch, to please provide them with a New Product Press Release
for publication (in the industry media and trade journals).
Once the New Product Press Release is received by the media, there is a 4-7 week
publication lead-time, before distribution occurs. Once the media publication contains the
New Product Press Release is distributed, and in the hands of all to see and read,
CounterWatch™ instantly becomes visible and exposed to the entire Pet Industry, Pet
Product Manufacturers, Pet Product Distributors, Pet Product Buyers for Retail Chains, and
Pet Product Buyers for Independent Retailers (Independent Retailers such as the
Neighborhood Pet Store Buyer, and yes Wal-Mart Pet Product Buyers !).
The New Product Release Section of any industry trade journal/website is must read for
manufacturers, distributors, and product buyers, all of which are potential licensees for
CounterWatch™, and want to profit from such new products.

“ Physical Products, for a Physical World, for Physical Real World Profits “
SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN
A strong presence on social media is vital to help create high online visibility, and help induce a
buzz with Pet Industry Product Buyers and Potential Licensees. Contract hire a professional,
that specializes in creating a social media presence for products.
YOUTUBE PRESENCE
A strong presence on YouTube is vital to help create and support high online visibility, and help
induce a buzz with Pet Industry Product Buyers and Potential Licensees.
Post videos of CounterWatch™ operating in both Direct Contact Mode and Non-Contact
Passive Mode, Vertically and Horizontal Operating Scenarios, demonstrating the effectives of
CounterWatch™ as a serious training and deterrent product. Be sure to demonstrate that
CounterWatch™ also has a bit-of-fun built-in to it too, this could help generate viral videos and
offer mass market exposure for CounterWatch™.
WORLD WIDE WEB INTERNET EXPOSURE
Create a product website for CounterWatch™, to provide Pet Industry Buyers and the general
public with CounterWatch™ product details, information and updates.
MAINSTREAM TELEVISION MEDIA
CONSUMER INTEREST AND PET MAGAZINE-ONLINE MEDIA
Personal contact with the media sources and New Product Editors will be made, communication
will then be followed up with providing the media contacts with a New Product Press Release for
publication and broadcast for mainstream public viewing.
Once the New Product Press Release is received by the media, there is a 1-6 week lead-time
before publication or broadcast occurs. Once the New Product Press Release is disseminated
and out in the public domain, CounterWatch™ instantly becomes visible and exposed to the
entire viewing population.
The television media, will surely exploit this new and exciting product CounterWatch™, in the
best way possible, in ways that will challenge, and then prove it's claimed ability as " The
Ultimate Pet Training System & Deterrent Product ", and remember, that CounterWatch™ has a
bit-of-fun built-in to it too, allowing the media to be very creative in the demonstration of
CounterWatch™ to their viewers.
Pet Owners and the all important Pet Product Manufacturers, Pet Product Distributors, Pet
Product Buyers for Superstore Retail Chains, and Independent Retailers will notice

Monetization of CounterWatch™__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The monetization strategy for the domestic marketplace is divided in to three groups. These
three groups, have different risk, effort involved, and profit potential levels, and must be
weighed with the product developer and any equity investors, short-term and long term
goals.
Monetization Strategy 1 – License to only one domestic Pet Superstore Retailer.
Monetization Strategy 2 – Licensing a manufacturer to exclusively produce and or
distribute CounterWatch™ (and that has no agreement, to exclusively distribute said
product, to a specific retailer such as PetSmart). Manufacturer will welcome increasing
their sales and profits producing and selling CounterWatch™.
Monetization Strategy 3 – Manufacture CounterWatch™ for General Sales.
Please refer to the preceding...Profit Revenue - Product Licensing or Manufacturer to Distributor Model graph.

Document the processes and mechanisms of manufacture, the tooling needed, and
necessary protocols for the manufacture of CounterWatch™.
Parts and components needed to produce CounterWatch™, may be sourced and or
produced off-shore, mainly China. Electronics PCB Component Modules and DC Motor are
produced in China. For the Plastic Injection Molded Parts, it is preferable to have the molds
on US soil, and the parts molded domestically to control quality and forego import costs.
Overseas sources of supply to produce CounterWatch™, have already been sourced and
contacted to obtain a basis for manufacturing cost at low quantity. Four vendors are needed.
1. DC Motor Gear Reduction Drive Supplier - China
2. PCB Electronics House - China
3. Injection Mold House – China or preferably USA
4. Assembly & Packaging - USAAssembled in USA Ensures Customer Satisfaction !
The tooling needed is, Plastic Injection Molds 1) Lower Chassis, 2) Upper Cover, 3) Liquid
Spray Reservoir Assembly Parts, and 4) Injection Mold for the Spray Pump Piston and Spray
Nozzle Assembly Parts, for a total of 3-4 plastic injection molds depending on design.
After the cost of designing and producing the above necessary tooling to manufacture
CounterWatch™ is amortized, the following mfg. cost can be realized.
Unit Distributor Price $18 - Unit Mfg Cost $9-$10 = $9 Unit Mfg Gross Profit

Noting Inventor's Investment : The “ Skin in the Game “.
Three years ago, I the Product Developer began to conceptualize an initial product design for a mass market consumer product that will generate mass profits, and would be virtually immune to fluctuations in the economy.
Over the last two years, 80+ hours a week of using the Premier CAD Software to design, I developed, and tested multiple iterations of CounterWatch™. To help finance this project, I sold my rare vintage motorcycle collection of over 25 collectibles valued at over $150,000 to self-fund CounterWatch™ from concept to patent pending status, and now ready for market exploitation.

“ Physical Products, for a Physical World, for Physical Real World Profits “
The Inventor and Product Developer of CounterWatch™ : Shawn Tait
As a Manufacturing Engineer exclusively working with New Product Development Teams, I successfully developed patentable new products for Siemens (Medical Device div.), Bendix Electrodynamics (US Military Vendor), Echlin Corp. (largest Automobile Aftermarket Parts Mfg.) and the Aerospace and Racing Industries.
My passion is, and always has been to solve a physical problem, create a solution to the problem in the form a needed product, and then successfully bring these new product concepts to market and enjoy the rewards.
_______________________________________
My History and Passion ("My Go Fast Story") : It all started for me at the age of 7… I wanted to go-faster, as I told mommy sitting in my racing go kart, mom says “we have no money to buy those high-tech go-fast racing parts, sorry”. So I had to figure out my own way to go faster.
At the age of 7-12 years old, I studied every math and engineering book I could get my hands on (from old engineering library books and college textbooks), and began learning how to design, develop and make my own motorcycle go-fast parts (among everything else!, that interested me). But most of all, first I still needed to make money to buy the needed materials to make those new racing parts (products) that are in my mind.
By the age of 12 years old, I was on my way funding my new product ventures through my hard work and natural entrepreneurship. I had several daily paper delivery routes and was starting to sell my newly developed and produced racing parts.
With junior high metal shop and high school machine shop classes, this gave me the perfect learning environment for R&D, making prototypes and producing my racing parts, utilizing the foundry, lathes, mills, fabrication equipment and welding equipment.
I also took electronics classes which taught me the fundamentals of electronic design and implementation. With both mechanical and electronics background, I could now invent, test and bring quality and reliable product concepts to fruition at the lowest cost possible. Often aided by re-purposing existing items to be utilized in my newly designed products to reduce R&D cost, and the time it takes to be first to market.
In my earlier years up to age 30, I successfully developed patentable new products for Siemens (Medical Device div.), Bendix Electrodynamics (US Military Vendor), Echlin Corp. (largest Automobile Aftermarket Parts Mfg.) and the Aerospace and Racing Industries. At age 30, I was done with Corporate America, began to create my own future.
At the age of 56, I am a proven successful entrepreneur of 25+ years experience, small business owner, manufacturing engineer and consummate realist.Product Concept to Market Success is what I do best.
Please contact me directly, if your interested in sharing future successes together.

CounterWatch™ Competitor Product Information and Pictures
Audible and In-Audible (by Humans) Single Noise Deterrent - Have a major limitation with today's modern home full of audible sounds, beeps, voices etc., such as from microwave ovens, coffee pot timers, voices on radio-TV, and other sound emitting electronic devices. The pet to be deterred therefore quickly assimilates to a single audible deterrent sound, as the pet is unable to differentiate from device deterrent audible sounds from environmental or ordinary daily household sounds and noises.
TattleTailSingle Tone Audible Deterrent
MSRP : $29.95
Ultrasonic In-Audible (by Humans) Single Sound Deterrent - As per one of the nations top retailers in this category, states in their disclaimer "A cat may not respond to the CatScram. This happens because some cats lack the capability to hear noises as high pitched as that emitted by the CatScram. This is more common in older cats who have lost some hearing range, very young cats who have not yet fully developed, and occasionally in rare purebreds." The question always remains with in-audible (by humans) type of device deterrent, is the device even working properly?, since you can't even hear it (in-audible) when it is working properly.

Spray Air Devices Deterrent - Place Device in/on Off-Limits Area, Pet Walks in Sensor Range, Device Emits Short Blast of Canned Air. Effective for Horizontal Surface.
However Consumable Aerosol Deterrent Refills make It Absolutely Cost Prohibitive To Operate (i.e. one stubborn pet cat in a household may trigger canned air blast usage of 2 or more proprietary and expensive canned air deterrent refills @ $10 each weekly; that's $20 a week !... for one cat !!). Imagine if you have 2 or more cats as most households often have, the cost of weekly refills then become a real issue.
Redirect Sensor or Turn Off before Human Can Use Pet Off-Limits Area.
After reviewing several high profile online retail websites that carry this product, you will often notice positive reviews for this product type, however further investigation reveals that may online posters of product reviews for this product, later come back to downgrade and or revise their review to a more negative tone towards the product, as the price on the consumable propriety canned air refills begin to quickly add up for the pet owner.
This product is believed to be licensed to several other pet companies for manufacturing and or distribution, by USPTO Assignee Multi-Vet Ltd. of Canada. Such other licensee brand names, may include ConTech, InnoTek and PetSafe. All of which are major manufacturers of pet products.
