Derrick Frohne

I became an industrial designer when their were not many jobs who would hire me because I don't have an advanced degree from a university. I didn't always want to be a designer, it just happened and was a blessing from God.

Design is something that represents yourself so making a design will express your thoughts.

Frohne eClip because it was the first product design of its kind.

the Florida Key USB flash drive was the first consumer electronics device I designed.

To make a design that is useful to the most amount of people and is environmentally friendly

Frohne has already initiated the next steps of future industrial designs and what I can say is, the technology is faster, smarter, holds more capacity, and stylish.

My inspiration comes from my dreams. I have dreams of technology. Sometimes I daydream and that's how it happens also.

Success was never given to me, I created it. I have chosen this style because it's the future. I want people to use the future in their daily life.

I live in Tampa-Florida, USA at the moment and the culture of the USA is consumer electronics. There are many people and companies, which need consumer electronics to maintain business and personal life.

I allow companies to distribute Frohne brand consumer electronics.

You need to allow the designer to create his or her own identity with no restrictions. Make sure that you have good communication and make the designer feel like family. When the designer has individuality and feels like family, the designer will be more comfortable and loyal to your brand.

The design process is arbitrary for me. I don't have a step by step process, because I just think of ideas, put them on paper, then the rest is history.

The only people who can change the world are the people crazy enough to think they can. Eventually their manifestation becomes reality and the world is changed. -Derrick Frohne Never follow dreams. Lead them -Derrick Frohne

Positives: The opportunity to make a name for yourself by brand exposure and profitability Negatives: Eating ramen noodles because spending money on designs are expensive. You will be a starving artist but if you have faith and dedication, God will provide you the tools to be successful and profitable.

Success is measured by your ability to create the unknown. -Derrick Frohne

My most important job experience was starting a company from nothing and expanding it to a global level.

UnbeatableSale, Microfiber Products Online, Amazon, eBay, Shop.com, PriceGrabber, and ShopAmex, PriceGrabber, Underbid, GrabCart, and Sears.

I have submitted my applications to business incubators, accelerators, and Venture Capitalists in Silicon Valley for the expansion of Frohne. Frohne will design cutlery next.

I develop designs myself but after I obtain funding from Silicon Valley-California, I would allow others to join the Frohne team to help design the most unique products on Earth.
