Whether you want to add an emblem or are designing for efficiencies, sketch out what you want the final sail to look like so that you have a jumping off point. Look to other similar boats for inspiration. Research the dimensions of similar sails and have an idea of what kind of sailing you’d like to do. This gives basic reference points to research and execute. Depending on the size of the vessel, making your sail can be a huge undertaking. Ensure that you have a workspace that can not only house a large piece of material but can also give you room to maneuver while making a lot of noise. Whether you’re a hobbyist or professional, you will need an industrial sewing machine that is able to do a zigzag stitch using V69 thread. It may be wise to let a professional take care of the sewing to ensure safety and maximum durability. If you are planning to sew the sail yourself, you will also need a special sewing table to be able to support the industrial sewing machine. This table needs to be about twice the size of a table tennis table in order to support the size of the sail. Measure the boat you intend to use the sale for in order to calculate the appropriate size of your sail. If you have a short boom and a tall mast then that is a High aspect. If you have a long boom and a short mast, it is a low aspect. Shorter booms give you more maneuverability.

Summary: Draw a basic outline. Find a suitable workspace. Address your sewing needs. Know the boom and mast dimensions.


You will need a conference room to meet with your customers and with your employees (in two different sessions). Ask 6-10 customers to meet with you for a couple of hours to discuss about your product category. It's even better if this session is managed by an outside research firm, but if you are short of time and budget you can do it yourself. Ask your customers to list the top brands they can think of in your category. They have to write down the brand they recall without help. Then they have to agree about the relative positions: who is the first brand, who is the second and so on. Ask your customers to list the features that are more relevant for them in the category. Again they have to write them down and order them from the most important to the least important. This is the key and fun part: you ask your customers or prospects to match a brand with one and only one feature. In this way you can see which brand '"owns"' which feature. This will let you see if there are important features you can own. With the info you have gathered in the session with your customers and prospects you now have a "map" to evaluate potential positioning for your brand. It's even entirely possible that you have no simple positioning strategy available and you have to think outside the box and revise your product offer You have actionable data to write the Positioning Statement that will guide all your marketing activities (see How to Write a Positioning Statement)

Summary: Block out 4-6 hours in two days. Meet with your customers or prospects. First question: Second question: Ask them to match Brands & Features. In the next day meet with your employees. With the result of the employee session, write a Positioning Statement.
