"I think I have a
new invention that will
prevail. What are the 1st steps I should take? Is there an
inventors hotline or something of that nature? Please help me I am
a young woman with great ambitions!"
"I am interested in selling my ideas for
products that I have come up with. How does one go about doing
this?"
"What can I do to be sure my
new idea is
not stolen by someone else before I get it patented?"
"If I feel I have a great new invention where
should I start?"
"I have a question about your
new invention
video. I have two new ideas about inventions I would like to
pursue. Both require technical/electronic know how beyond my area
of expertise. How can someone pursue a new invention when you do not
have enough technical knowledge to build a prototype on your own?"
"I have a great idea that I want to
market. When I called around I had to have $10,000.00 or more to
start. Is there anyway to get started without having money?"
"Do I need to use an invention submission
service? Do I need to build a working model?"
"Because the patent process is so expensive,
my husband and I would like to patent his new invention ourselves.
Therefore, I was excited to hear about your video and feel this may be
well worth it. However, we would rather sell our patent to a
larger company like Craftsman, etc. We aren't really interested in
having a small business which revolves around it, because both of us
have so many obligations. Does your "new invention" video cover how to approach
companies with your patent? Or should we really consider our goal
and try to handle it as a small company (...are the profits really
significant more to warrant this?)"
"How do you go about actually doing the patent
search?"
"Dear Gary, I have
a new invention and I'm only 9
years old. How can I get my new invention in the market?"
"I have a new invention that I believe would sell
well in poorer nations, does your video help with international
marketing?"
"I have a new idea I would like to present to a
manufacturer to finance and produce. They are the biggest in the
industry. How do I protect myself?"
"I have an idea that I think will help a lot
of people. I would like to know how I can find out if my new idea is
already in the market? If not, how can I get started?"
"I just found your website. I have
a new
idea but don't know how to put it on paper. I know it is a product
which I have not seen anywhere but would be too big to make
myself. It would have to be made as a part of manufacturing and
assembling process. I see a possible real big need for something
like this. All over the world especially in the Northern
hemisphere. How do I get my new idea to materialize? I am
excited about the prospect but know that reality says that only a small
percentage of ideas ever get to reality. What can I do?"
"I am a single parent with 2 children and have
many ideas for inventing. I don't know where to start as I have
never done this type of thing before. Also I don't have the money
to put into my new invention. Please help if you can."
"Can you tell me how to go about putting a
price on a new invention? Maybe you know a web page that would
tell that!"
