The “Aha!” Moment and The Mission

I’ve been fortunate to get some products in the marketplace but the learning curve has been steep with a lot of trial and error. That’s because I had to ﬁgure out everything for myself.

But there came a time when “light bulbs went off” and I cracked the invention code. It was then that I decided to take on the mission of sharing what I had learned in order to improve the odds of success for any creative person who wanted to go down this path. The reality is that there are few resources out there to educate inventors. There are plenty of patent professionals, designers, engineers and the like, and while each can help with one piece of a product’s puzzle, they can not be responsible for your project, your success, or whether what they did is what you really needed at that time. As mentor, my interest is to help you make sense out of the process, to lay out potential options and help you clarify your own process so you can make informed choices before you rush out and spend your hard earned money.
