Market
The market interest for Mister Alphabet and his various products range from design-conscious parents to educators--whether public, private or differently-abled students--and retail stores. We’ve found interest from retailers spanning gift shops, children’s toy stores, and high-end museum stores. While our first product was a handmade heirloom piece, our more mass-commerce products will allow for expansion beyond a niche marketplace.
Growth
Mister Alphabet has found potential in emerging ed-tech markets. The development of a Mister Alphabet app and geo-tagged AR space version will mark our first push into digital media. While the app will initially be released with a learning focus, a move toward games, social engagement, and customization features remain a target.
In addition to the app, Mister Alphabet has formulated relationships in the entertainment industry for potential film and television development. In concert with media growth, our product line continues to develop and we are excited about the release of wood blocks, print products, and artist collaborations in 2023, as well as future literary works.
