This Hugely Successful Toy Company Loves Inventors
zuru.com/
The toy company ZURU is one of the fastest growing toy companies in the world, and it's all about licensing toy inventions. In fact it has licensed dozens and dozens of ideas from independent inventors, some among its very most popular. For example, it sells about 30 million packs of Bunch o Balloons a year, a toy it licensed from inventor Josh Malone. It's latest game-changer is in the party balloon market. CEO Nick Mowbray describes his unique company strategy for bringing products to market, including complex automation with robotics. Another licensed toy product was the Robo Fish. He also discusses the role of patent protection and how to get in touch with his company.

Wow! Can't wait to work with this Co.
Question for you Steve...Can you submit your toy idea to more than one company at a time? For instance, if you’ve submitted an idea to one company, but haven’t heard back from them...
Can I submit my idea to Zuru without filing a provisional patent?

That is not a yes or no question, that's a matter of strategy. Filing a PPA with the USPTO is inexpensive and gives you a year of patent-pending status.

@@inventRight Thanks a lot for replying! I am from India and I spoke to a patenting attorney regarding the process for an Indian to file a PPA with the USPTO. It seems like a rather long and expensive process. Is it so? Or is there a simple and inexpensive way to do it?
Hi everyone, does anybody knows how to do research on toys existing ideas? how do you know if your idea is not on the market already? there are millions of toys out there, it is overwhelming.
Yeeeah, I'm not a doctor, but here I am a year+ into the future after this video was posted, and I suspect the upcoming Baby Shark line did ok. 😂
I have a toy idea. I've got characters names stories etc. But I have no money is there any way of selling my idea?
how much does it cost to have toys made

But one of the industries that Stephen Key said to avoid was the toy industry.
I have lots of toy ideas. Did I put them on paper. I try. Are they good? You let me know.

Challenge: Be the first toy company to make a squishy Corona virus toy= 🦠🤏🦠🤏🦠🤏
Has ANYONE had ANY communication with this company? They say, on their submission form, that someone will get back to you shortly....its been a month and no word even after several emails inquiring. And good luck finding a phone number.. :( AND of course, this is AFTER you have submitted ur idea to them

Hello Kevin, I hope you’re doing well. This company is on fire. They just had trade shows back to back. And they won many awards now. They’re busy. So please be patient build a relationship and wait till they get back from Toy fair. But I can guarantee if they like your product they will get back to you. Keep inventing!

They might be super swamped with Christmas being so close. Or at least thats what I was told by a MONSTER toy company-If you filed a PPA- maybe that will hold some ground if they come out with a similar product.
