Business/Commerce (general)
Hi,
The context is 我們公司是針對產品別 不是對公司.
I think the person is saying that their company is geared towards product *something* and not towards dealing with companies, but I'm not sure what the 產品別 refers to in English.
Any ideas? TIA!

一個有類比性的句子是﹕我們是對事不對人。
別 is a redundancy. A typo error.

| That thought has crossed my mind too, but I'm hesitant b/c 產品別 does come up in Baidu, and it seems to be a professional term. Sometimes it's hard to know if the writer has made a typo or an omission or if it's just a term I'm not familiar with. Thanks for your suggestion. |

| I don't think it has to do with marketing. I don't have a lot of context but the writer is answering a question about his/her experience with the company asking the question. Thanks for your suggestion. |

Our company targets at certain product category, not other companies specifically.
"我們公司是針對產品別 不是對公司"
这听起来像是对某个公司的简介，我猜是说该公司的竞争方向是针对产品，而不是要抢别的其他公司的生意。

My interpretation to this sentence is that the product/service this company provides is competitive in the same product category (e.g. iPad in the tablet market). Of course you don't want to mention the company is not competitive as a whole compared to other companies in the same industry.
