Learn the Step-by-Step Procedures
to Bring Your Invention to Market

     Imagine for a moment how you would feel if you walked into a store and saw your invention in a nice package sitting on the shelf. Maybe you thought about a product that you later noticed in a store and said - hey that was my idea.

     Suppose somebody handed you a proven step-by-step guide that showed you how to turn your ideas into successful products. If you had this guide not only would your ideas become reality, you could earn extra money.

     Is it possible? Why not! You're clever and have ideas for products that people want to buy. Maybe all you need is information and practical advice.

A Unique Source of Information

     I wrote Product Idea to Product Success to help people who have ideas but are frustrated in not knowing what to do with them. Based on my twenty years developing and bringing products to the market, this book reveals the essential real-world methods to take you from concept to market launch. The method I developed is called the Market-Step™ process. This unique step-by-step process combines marketing, sales, and development in one complete guide.

     With Product Idea to Product Success, you'll learn the steps to get to market, how to protect and evaluate your ideas, make a prototype, get your product manufactured, self-market or license your idea, and much, much more.

     You're going to save time, make money, and save yourself aggravation. You'll learn to avoid mistakes and disastrous situations that inventors are vulnerable to.

PART 1. GETTING STARTED, PATENTS, and LICENSING

Topics include: Being Creative | Roadmap | Pitfalls to Avoid | Success Factors | Protection and Patents | Trademarks | Licensing

"Hide not your talents, they for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?"
— Benjamin Franklin

     Getting off to the wrong start could be costly. If you give thousands of dollars to a fraudulent invention company or get a patent too early, you'll likely be out of money to go any further. Empower yourself with knowledge and learn…

The complete roadmap that takes you step-by-step from product idea to product success.
How to take your idea and make it better with special creative techniques.
The factors that make a product successful and the pitfalls to avoid.
Simple ways to protect your idea that are recognized by the Patent Office.
What's patentable, the types of patents, the costs, and how you could loose your rights to a patent if you don't follow the proper timeline.
How to save money by performing a patent search yourself.
The valuable role of trademarks and how to obtain one to build trust, reputation, and loyalty.
The process of licensing… how to decide if licensing is for you, finding the right company to license your idea, how to write a licensing proposal that gets companies interested, and the key points that goes into a licensing agreement that benefits you.


PART 2. MARKETABILITY and PROTOTYPE MAKING

Topics include: Market Research | Assessment | Competition | Advantages | Profit | Customer Buying Process | Surveys | Interviews | Prototype Development

"That's an amazing invention, but who would ever want to use one of them?"
— President Rutherford Hayes (Referring to the telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell.)

     When I was a young engineer, I thought marketing involved only advertising and picking colors. I didn't think marketing was much of anything.

      Then I realized how marketing and selling was the key to success. Now, you'll gain from my 20 years of product development and marketing experience to:

Know what market research questions to ask and how to get the answers.
 Find free market research sources and how to use them.
Flesh out your idea in terms of benefits, features, and advantages the product offers the customer.
Determine your invention's profit potential, to guide development, influence investors, and gather supporters.
Conduct free concept survey research to identify who will buy your product and they really want.
Create a prototype… how it should look, how it should function, where to get it made, how to make sure it will turn out the way you want it.
Learn new prototype techniques and advantages of advanced rapid prototyping technologies.
Get feedback on your prototype to validate features and functions.

PART 3. DEVELOPMENT, PRODUCTION, & LAUNCH

Topics include: Marketing | Pricing | Retailers | Product Requirements | Certifications | Manufacturing | Project Plan | Beta Test | Product Launch Plan | Branding | Packaging | Publicity | Advertising | Selling

"Obstacles cannot crush me. Every obstacle yields to stern resolve. He who is fixed to a star does not change his mind."
— Leonardo da Vinci

     The development and launch phase is where your idea truly comes alive and you're rewarded for your hard work. Maybe you thought you couldn't get this far. That's because you didn't have a roadmap and my step-by-step procedures to guide you along the way. I'll teach you:

The entire product development process … from design, testing, production to launching your product.
How to work with designers and manufacturers to keep your costs low and make sure you're getting the product built the way you want it.
To create product requirements to clarify what your product should have from the customer's point of view.
How to uncover roadblocks before they happen such as the need to pass regulations or obtain certifications before you get to the market.
To form a launch plan and timeline to keep you organized and on track.
The steps to create attractive packaging … working with a designer and packaging company to create the right look at the lowest cost.
To organize a beta test with potential customers to get any of the bugs out before final production.
How to get into retailers and distributors … knowing what they want, how to approach them, how to make them love your product and come back for more.
How to price your product considering competition, distribution channels, and generating the most revenue for you.
How customers think and buy, and how to target your marketing messages to appeal to them.
Take advantage of free publicity to generate awareness in your city, nationwide and even worldwide.
How to make the most from direct mail and advertising for the greatest returns.

Extras — Funding Your Idea, Writing A Product Plan

     No invention or product development resource is complete unless it tells you how to get funding for your idea. You'll learn the different types of funding, how to work with banks, angel investors, and venture capitalists. I also uncover the facts about getting SBA loans.

     And to get funding you need to show a plan. I've outlined the sections of a business plan that investors want to see and the details a product plan must contain.

Business Startup Checklist


     If you decide to create a business around your invention, I've outlined the advantages, disadvantages and differences, between a sole proprietorship, general partnership, corporation, limited liability companies, and limited liability partnerships. You'll learn which is best for product liability, taxes, and growth.

The Proper Mix Of Development And Marketing

     You'll benefit from my 20 years of experience bringing products to the market. I've worked on both sides — development as an engineer, and marketing and sales as an MBA. It's fun to be creative and develop products. It's even more fun to be rewarded for your efforts. And isn't that what you want — to sell your idea or product? I'll be with you each step of the way as you formulate, create, produce, and sell your invention.

Why Did I Write the Invention Success Kit?

     I wanted to help people who have good ideas but were frustrated in not knowing what to do with them. For years, inventors and entrepreneurs have asked me the same questions over and over again about how to turn an idea into a market success. With so many good ideas floating around and a small percentage making it the market, I saw a need to get practical information out to the public.

How Is This Information Different From Other Invention And Product Development Resources?

     Many marketing, invention, and product books talk about methods used at Fortune 500 companies, but they do not translate well into the needs of a small business or individual. Other books written by famous inventors discuss their life story and their successes, but they don't offer a process that the new inventor can easily follow.

     Also, many books will tell you what to do, but they do not really tell you how to do it. I take a reader by the hand step-by-step and tell them what to do and how to bring a product to market.

What Research Was Done?

     My goal was to uncover the newest and most essential information. First, I reviewed in detail my experiences of taking products from concept to commercialization. Pouring over documentation, timelines, and project notes, I re-assembled the processes each step of the way.

     In addition, I interviewed experts on the newest prototype and manufacturing methods, patent attorneys on the current issues, professors and successful entrepreneurs on time-tested marketing techniques, packaging designers, and investors on methods to raise money. As a result, it took almost two years to plan, research, and complete.

Is This Easy To Understand?

     People who use the Invention Success Kit say that the material is clear and concise. There are many step-by-step procedures, tips, and examples to help readers translate the methods to their own inventions. Some people read the entire guidebook and then apply the techniques, while others read a particular section as a resource.

Take Ownership

     With the Invention Success Kit I lead you step-by-step through the entire process. Because the information you're about to receive is the best resource on inventing, I offer a complete guarantee.

     Don't try to reinvent the wheel yourself. Take ownership of the Invention Success Kit and for the first time you'll be on your way to turning your ideas into reality.
