Being a PRODUCT DESIGNER means that people come to you with a dream of getting rich by selling some WIDGET that they've thought up and you help them fulfill their dreams.
Well, that's not really the complete story. What a PRODUCT DESIGNER does is take a client's concept of a new PRODUCT and design and document all parts and associated elements that are required to bring their PRODUCT to the marketplace.
Along with the PRODUCT itself, it can include all the USER DOCUMENTATION, the POINT OF SALE PACKAGING and the SHIPPING CONTAINER.
To take action on someone's realization (or maybe a perception) of a need for a PRODUCT.
To conceptualize a solution in which the need is met in a manner that is:
Pleasing to the eye
Properly functional
User friendly
Manufacturable
Cost effective
Durable
Attractively packaged in order to draw the user to the PRODUCT
In certain cases, able to be repaired easily and cost effectively
