Great show! A great invention!😂lol

I'm one of the lucky ones, coming up with good ideas is the easy part for me. I feel that luring the process is a bit intimidating and I'm not the type that's easily intimidated. I'm retired from the rail road and did all sorts of things during the years I worked. So I'm able to make most prototypes and fabricate almost anything. I have something in the works that will be of interest to several large company's and I already have a completely finished, working and tested prototype (conceived, built and tested in three months) that I will keep no mater what happens, it's that bad ass. This is my first time and I find everything a bit confusing, so thanks for everything I have learned from both of you. Yes I do take notes and I'm working on a list of the most important things, so I can have them tattooed on my left arm so I can look at them as if look at my watch.

Awesome videos guys! I just found your channel. I have invited my first product and it has been sitting in my garage for almost two years because I thought I was crazy for thinking I may have a chance at a license. After finding your channel and the encouragement from it I have decided to move forward and try. I have a meeting this week with a patent attorney. I'm excited and wanted to say thank you for your efforts with your channel. You guys are great and easy to listen to. Thanks, Joe Bisping

@stephenkey3137

8 жыл бұрын

+Doflex Great question. It all depends on the category and the complexity of the product/idea. If it's a simple idea/ slight modification on existing product... Signing a licensing agreement could take a few weeks. If the company has licensed an ideas before it goes very quickly. If the company has not licensed an idea .. Very painful. A simple idea can be brought to market within 6 to 8 months.. What's most common is a year. So you would collect royalties in the first quarter after it hits the store shelves. If your product is complicated and working with a large company expect to wait. But then again the rewards/ royalties can be larger.

Thank you guys. Quick question, how do you make a sell sheet 1 minute sell video if you dont have a final product or even a prototype. Do I just ommit the video?

Not every product requires a video, but they can be really helpful. Thank you for watching.

We tell our students to be wary of working with any company that asks them to contribute their own money for prototyping.

do you have a list of term for Letter of Intent I see performance clause ,exclusive and non exclusive,insurance clause ,things that I would think to add would be start date,licencing fee ,when payments are made, amount of time of licencing ,amount of shelve space ,they would pay patents if worthly product,,and pay tp protect product lawyers and fees.

Good luck Andrew Solivan. :D

Hi guys, you both are too awesome! I have an idea but its in very primitive stage. How do I move forward? Do I finalize a prototype first or file a PPA? FOR filing a PPA do I need a prototype ready? Or I can just do a PPA on my idea and then work on a prototype. I am sure once I get my prototype done I can start contacting companies for product licensing. Please advice, it will be very much helpful!

Hello Vivek! Thank you for watching our videos! It's usually a good idea to know what your product will look like and what are the different ways it can be made to work, before filing a PPA. A Prototype can help, depending on the type of product you are creating, but it isn't always needed. For more on this, you can read our Inc. article on "The 5 Times You Actually Need a Prototype of Your Product": www.inc.com/stephen-key/the-5-times-you-actually-need-a-prototype.html.

Any recommendations of companies that can make a prototype for my invention. Need a durable plastics non-electronic prototype for a medical accessory non-invasive device.

Hey guys I have so many unique ideas most of my family are or were inventors my aunt invented the hoyer lift and sold the idea to hoyer for 15k 30 years or more ago. I have an idea that is defiantly a highly marketable idea and I have sketched it out and have thought out most of the details but I’m afraid if I take my idea to someone to market it or build a prototype that they will just say no and go and build it themselves with some changes. What do I do here I can’t build a prototype but I have a little money I could put into it to maybe get a patented. Should I use someone like invent help or what.

You guys are awesome, I have a question. What about if multiple companies contact me at the same time, can I make a deal with multiple companies at the same time?

I have a question: you say here that we dont have to send them everything they ask as soon as they ask it , but what happens when they have an "idea submission form" on their website that begins asking for drawings and the provisional or non provisional patent in order to proceed? here is an example I got from the list of companies: www.sterilite.com/files/PDF/Idea_Submission_Form.pdf thank you very much for your help

This line is a red flag: We will only accept and review product ideas that are now protected by a valid issued U.S. patent provided. This is another one: You are acknowledging that your disclosure to Sterilite Corporation is not confidential. Why would you give away important information before knowing there's any interest? That doesn't make sense.

Hi Daniel! We are not very familiar with that industry, but you could do a google search for similar items used in fire departments.

You might even find out new things that you could use to refine your idea!

Here's an article Stephen wrote about the differences between licensing and manufacturing yourself: www.nytimes.com/allbusiness/AB4968144_primary.html?pagewanted=print. Here's another article Stephen wrote about how to tell whether your idea is a good fit for licensing: www.entrepreneur.com/article/285922. A question to consider: How many companies are distributing products in the industry? If there are only a few, they might not have a lot of motivation to innovate. The great news about licensing is you can get started on your idea today. You already have contacts, so it should not be hard to get the opinion of these companies.

I have same question. I am curious to hear their response. I recently saw the movie "flash of genius" 2008 film. It is about the inventor of the intermittent window shield wiper. This independent inventor took his prototype to Ford corporation and they simply stole it. He had a patent also and he also was a professor of electrical engineering but was helpless going up against the "big boys" in court. After many years he finally got a breakthrough. They settled with him for millions of dollars but it cost him 12 years of grief and suffering.

+2nd_PLATOON Please know that we are not attorneys and this is not legal advice. Has the company expressed interest in your idea yet? If not, it's unlikely they'll be willing to sign one. Think about it. If a company were to sign an NDA with each inventors who sends them an idea, how could they keep track of all of those? It's better to ask for one after they've expressed interest and are asking for more information. Make sure you have protected yourself comfortably enough before submitting anything to them.

Hi Jasmine. A prototype is a preliminary model of an idea. Something that's important to know about prototypes is that there are many different kinds. Your first prototype may be rough and made with existing materials, some people call this a Frankenstein prototype. Throughout the product development process, prototypes get increasingly refined.
