Introduction to making money with your inventions

"Learning How To Gain Financially From Your Inventions"

If you have an invention, the chances are that you will never gain financially from it. This is because few ever reach the point where they obtain a patent. Without a patent your chances of success amount to just luck. This does not mean you can't be very industrious and find a buyer for your invention, but even then, they may just steal it from you instead of paying for it. Without a patent you have very little protection. So why do so few inventors get patents? Because they don't have the $10,000 to $30,000 it can cost to get a patent. A friend of mine recently paid $30,000 for a patent on a simple picture mounting tack. Even worse, you can pay this kind of money and not even get a patent! The risk is beyond what most people are willing to except.

You may think you have time to wait with your invention. There is a good chance you are wrong. Inventions are usually small modification of existing inventions. Thus, when an new invention comes on the scene all the inventors out there begin thinking of modifications to that invention. This is why many inventors very often come up with the same invention at the same time. One way around this is to invent the product before everyone else and then quickly get it patented before anyone else. This still can cause problems since someone else may be faster than you. There is also another way around this herd mentality. First you must invent something. Next you must take that invention and go one step further: You must consider the consequences of having the invention in the market, and what improvements could be made to this invention or what inventions it might produce. This extra step will place you ahead of the crowd, and give you inventions that have never been thought of before. Taking this next step is what InventionMakers^TM excels at.

Now for the bad news: Even if you do get a patent, your chances are still very small unless you can manufacture your product. Even fewer go to this next step where $200,000+ development costs are very common. Even if you get to this stage you still have to know how to market the product. The risks are great, but there is a better way. What you need is someone to share the risk with.

InventionMakers^TM will share the risk with you for part ownership of the resulting patent. In return we provide engineering, development, and marketing services. And if for some reason we can't get a patent on the invention, we have a money back guarantee. Try getting that from your patent attorney.

InventionMakers^TM Does not spend its time doing complex and expensive marketing studies. We are interested in inventions for small niche markets, which do not see much innovation. These markets are ripe for new products and inventions which can easily displace the present technology. These markets usually have only one or two trade journals associated with the product and provide very good, very inexpensive advertising to exactly the dealers of interest.. Often these journals will feature your invention for free if you write the article for them correctly. We also consider larger markets where sales can go over $5,000,000 per year, and do not limit ourselves to small markets if a good invention crosses our desk.

InventionMakers^TM uses cost sharing to greatly reduce your total cost of bringing a product to market. If manufacturing and marketing your invention for as little as $7,000, or getting a patent for $1,995 interests you, then CLICK through all the links listed on the left BAR to understand exactly how you can profit from your inventions.

Company Mission:

The goals of InventionMakers^TM can be separated into three phases. The first phase is to provide a much needed service to amateur inventors, providing inventors with engineering and invention improvement, patent services, prototyping services at cost, mold and production equipment design, and manufacturing at cost. Prices are set low to speed growth and to gain good patents and products. Profits from product sales will provide the capital to expand. In the second phase, engineers with inventing talent will be trained to patent and engineer inventions for InventionMakers^TM. Extra CAD engineers and marketing people will also be hired (PLEASE DO NOT SEND RESUMES AT THIS TIME, WE ARE JUST STARTING OUT). This will expand the number of inventions we can handle and also our profits. At some future time, the company will enter the third phase where separate companies will be formed from in house personnel. These companies will be partially owned by InventionMakers^TM and InventionMakers^TM will assist them in start up and initial operation. These companies can be in any field depending on what type of business the personnel want to be in. By using this network approach to starting companies, we can assist people start their own business. It is hoped that eventually a large number of small to medium sized companies will be created, each partially owned by InventionMakers^TM, but controlled and partially owned by the start-up personnel.
