I think that's been invented already. Check with Terrell Owens, I think he has the patent, but he's more than willing to license it out if you pay him enough. |

It solves one of life's everyday problems. Sorry I can't be more specific but I don't to be Steve Jobbed on this.

Well, it depends. What do you want to do? Is this an improvement of an existing product, or something unique and defferent? Do you want to study the feasability of bringing it to market yourself? Do you know what manufacturing and distribution requirements will have to be met? Will you need employees and a manufacturing facility? What capital investment canyou make on your own? Are you looking for an equity investor or an experienced partner in that field? Is there an existing manufacturer who could make the product cheaper than you could on your own? How are you going to advertise and sell your product, direct marketing, infomercials, existing retailers, your own store? What will you do to discourage competitors from taking your market share? Is this product a stand alone business, or are there complimentary products that can be incorporated into the business? Are there improvements that can be made to the product to keep it fresh?
Be careful. A successful business is 1% inspriation (the idea) and 99% perspiration (all of the WORK). Choose your answers wisely. |

I also have an invention. It zaps people in the eye whenever they look at unpatented documents.
