I Have An Idea….now what?
Hello readers! Nathan here – I am the Client Networking Director and Social Media Guru for Source Direct. I am starting this blog as a 5 part series to help inventors see their product to completion. Enjoy this blog, and share with your inventor friends!
“Okay, I have an idea for an invention…now what do I do?” This is probably one of the most common questions that we usually get asked. The journey to completion of a product can be very exciting – but everything starts with a solid idea.
You must be very careful. In this age, with social media and information interactivity, it can be very easy to lose track of your confidential thoughts, ideas, and innovations. Many have heard the old saying, “Send a letter to yourself with your idea enclosed…this way nobody can say it’s not originally yours!” Don’t do this! This isn’t a legal way to secure your idea – no matter what anyone says. Make sure that all parties involved in your idea have signed some sort of documentation to keep everything secure.
After you have put all of your thoughts on paper, the very first thing you should do is call us – Source Direct! Our founder, Ed Mauro, is an inventor himself – he’s been in exactly the same place you are now. We can help you go directly from concept to completion, and our 20+ years of experience will speak for itself. We have inventors call us every day, seeking guidance and assistance to make sure that their dream becomes a reality.
