Is there a one-stop shop if I have an idea for a gadget?

[shdw01]

I mean someone that can handle the patents, designing, manufacturing, marketing, sales, etc.

basically someone to pay me for an idea and give me residuals.



actually, even the other end is okay where I pay for everything myself but at least showing me who the players I need to get in touch with?

 

[shdw01]

BTW, I aint telling you this goldmine I'm sitting on

 

[Betallsports]

Yes, just write your idea to Getyourideaoutthere

I clicked it thinking you were hooking ME up.....not YOU

 

[Defying]

there are inventions websites, inventhelp is one I've seen advertise on tv... don't know much about them... i think you do have to do a lot of the legwork yourself though, and obviously fund it

 

[shdw01]

if I had an invention that would magically make dog poo evaporate you are telling me I have to fund the entire thing myself? no one would do that legwork for me?

This has been created before. However they couldn't find a way to keep lawns/grass/plants alive and unharmed from the substances used.

Becareful with who you share your idea with. Went to a company years ago called 'Advent Product Development' and they claimed to be exactly the company you described you are seeking. Met with their attorneys and this was their process

step 1 was a meeting to see if your idea was worthy,
step 2 was give them money,
step 3 was submit your patent
step 4 was get a manufacture,
step 5 sell

they would do all this for a small percentage of sales fee, they claimed they would audit the manufacture, sales, etc to make sure we were being paid properly.
everything sounded legit, they told me what I wanted to hear, made it sound like we were 'partnering up' on this idea. The had very impressive presentation of our product, which was a medical bandage/devise, specifically designed for you foot. They kept coming back with needing more money, next step fees etc.... before red flags started showing I was already thousands in.

Long story short, I never even received patent pending. They said I could not get approved as they devise was too similar to ones already in existence. I tried to find what devise they were talking about as many of my family members are in the medical field and there was nothing even remotely close. I search online, could not find anything.

I am not so mad about the money, but more upset that I felt scammed. And my idea never got off the ground..... but I wouldnt be surprised if I see it available one day

I was just making that one up....isn't that what they used in the movie "Envy"

 

[shdw01]

kickstarter is a great idea actually but it would have to be done after patents and such

That is crazy Mark. I wonder how valid their needs for more funding was? Kind of like a contractor that always needs more money. Are they still in business now?

I'd get a patent before I showed it to anyone. And that can be pricey.

I gave in once when they said the patent was rejected, their fee was for a refile. They did refile yet they refiled to the same patent attorney. Once rejected they were asking for even more than the first 2x but they were going to refile again with the same patent attorney. Which didnt make sense to me. Felt like they were leading me in circles

I through their name in google and it sounds like many others had problems or issues with them also
