Maybe your promising ideas were picked to death by skeptics and critics. Maybe you're wondering why no one is interested in your ideas or why you are being rejected. Maybe you feel stifled by the lack of finances or resources. The worst part about this was, I couldn't figure out why everything I was doing - wasn't working. It’s not because I didn’t try. All I could see were roadblocks - with the results speaking for themselves - only a small percentage of us are successful. In fact, 93% of patents filed by inventors are never commercialized. Obviously, something is wrong!
I read all the books, met with all the experts, and sought advice from everyone. But, at almost every turn, the advice was vague, confusing, conflicting, or just plain wrong.
But, as you probably know from your own
experience, that didn’t prevent people from taking
my money.
Here are some interesting statistics. In the United States there are 32,797 patent attorneys and agents. The national average billing rate is $250 per hour. That amounts to over 8 million dollars an hour, if there is enough work for everybody. This generates 93% of the patents that are never commercialized. According to the Federal Trade Commission, invention promotion companies receive an estimated 300 million dollars annually from inventors yet their success rate for commercializing inventions is less than 1 percent. A fundamental mechanism of all corporations and institutions is self preservation. This means that their primary interest is in preserving their existence. It is important for inventors to understand how this mechanism works within the context of innovation.
There is considerable misinformation about what is important and what steps you should take with an invention. We're told to do the wrong things, at the wrong time, in the wrong sequence, for the wrong reasons with the wrong people. It's a horrible mess of hype, lies, myths, disinformation, and misconceptions. Why is this happening?It happens for two reasons. First, because a lot of people make a lot of money selling services to inventors without concern for any return on your investment. We are told that it is very important to buy these services in order to have commercial success. This simply isn't true. It is based upon the popular myth that inventing is a type of lottery game. There isn't an inventor who does not believe their invention is worth a "ga-zillion" dollars, just like there isn't a parent who does not believe their child is beautiful. Without objective and correct information, we are easily flattered into spending money on services we don't really need. We do this because we want to cash in our lottery ticket and collect our big check. But that's not how this business works but that's what many of us are told to believe. The statistics prove that as long as we believe that inventing is a lottery game, and as long as we do not understand how business works - we will spend thousands of dollars trying to win the lottery. It serves the interests of those whose existence depends upon this myth. Secondly, new innovations can threaten existing market dominance and wealth consolidation. For example, the oil industry has no interest in seeing the commercialization of inventions that do not utilize fossil fuels or derivatives thereof. It is not in their self interest. It threatens their existence, market dominance and wealth consolidation. After all, refrigeration created massive unemployment and bankruptcy within the ice harvesting industry. Automobiles created massive unemployment and bankruptcy within the horse carriage industry. You would have a difficult time competing against the oil industry. Conversely, like most industries, oil companies do purchase technologies to keep them under their control. For example, they own numerous technologies related to the battery storage of energy. This allows them to influence the future of electric automobiles, which threatens fossil fuel consuming vehicles. So, a battery they don't own yet, would be of interest to them. Alternatively, patent attorneys known as "patent trolls" may also be interested in purchasing such an invention so they may eventually sue somebody that makes a lot of money with electric cars. These are examples of some of the mechanisms at work that inventors need to be aware of. Profiting from an invention is really about understanding these mechanisms and utilizing the correct strategies. How you do this, how to make money doing it, and how to keep making money doing it, is what is important. I have made lots of money with inventions that I never patented, which were never "knocked off" and that did not infringed on other inventions. The most important thing about inventing is convincing someone that your invention will make them a lot of money or preserve their continued wealth. How you do this determines your success and that is what "Five Big Lies" shows you how to do.
I’m an inventor with over twenty years of business experience and practical knowledge in intellectual properties. I’ve manufactured, marketed and licensed my own inventions, and others, around the world. I’m a former marketing executive for two Fortune 500 companies: Nashua and Roneo Vickers. I was the founder of Giant Panda H.K. Limited, pioneering joint manufacturing ventures in China, beginning with my own product licensed with the Walt Disney company. Over the past ten years I’ve been a consultant to companies and independent inventors.
Not long ago, I met a retired scientist who told me a sad story. He paid an attorney $80,000 to patent a simple two-piece mold and then went broke. About a month later, a carpenter told me how he paid $20,000 to an invention promoter for a 20 page “market research" report and "connections" to potential manufacturers for licensing. He went hopelessly into debt. Soon after that, an inventor that was manufacturing and distributing his own invention made a couple of strategic errors and lost all his sales to a competing company. He went bankrupt. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! So I decided that the best way to prevent inventors from getting abused, and help them make money with their inventions, was to put this information into a simple and easy to understand method. Then it would be available to anyone who wants to learn how to be a successful inventor. So that’s what I did. INTRODUCING 5 BIG LIES
