Key Takeaways

"Messaging often involves claims. So you want to make sure that you're collecting the right data to support the message you want to say and to make sure you can make the claim you want to claim. Even something as simple as the description of the device in a regulatory submission can help you later with the way you want to position it and the way you want to talk about it in the market."

"What are some of the challenges that you've experienced or run into during your time in regulatory and dealing with, you know, labeling and advertising?

"Having people talk to each other too late in the process is probably one of the biggest issues, because I think there's a misunderstanding about the impact messaging may have. Well, specifically for regulatory, but I think it carries over to other functional areas as well. But, for example, understanding the message can affect your regulatory strategy, and a lot of it crosses over into. And I know a little bit about your process, I haven't worked through it. I haven't had that pleasure, but understanding your customer, understanding your product, understanding how you fit in to the bigger picture, all of that is important for your message, but it's also really important for your regulatory strategy and for your design for that matter. I mean, it's kind of elementary to having a successful product."
