ABSTRACT:
A commodity idea of a proposal type is presented to users via a network, and wishes of the users concerning commodity specifications are collected as information. Then, the final product specifications are determined and the demand for the commodity is grasped. This makes it possible to develop a commodity with as little risk as possible and to allow the users to obtain a commodity having specifications that satisfy the user's wishes at a relatively low price.
