text: Later, as Professor Bass manipulated the equation with the goal of finding the solution to this nonlinear differential equation, he discovered that if instead of the constant q he made the constant be q divided by the constant potential market M (in the well-established tradition of cleverly chosen constants), the equation would work out very nicely; thus, the Bass Model principle became
