BizCT Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I have been searching high and low for a hunting product that I want to buy. To my amazement, I can't find it anywhere. Now it has me thinking I should get paid for the idea lol. What is the next step? I'm not looking to quit my dayjob and chase some pipe dream or anything, just curious as to who I communicate my idea to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Whats your idea? I would be more than happy to test it so long as it won't result in my death or grave injury Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have looked at all that stuff already. But would need to hire an expert to search prior art I guess to make sure 100% there isn't already a patent.

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Expand The problem is that the product is already being sold. My wish/idea is that this specific product had a certain feature to it, which I can't find anywhere. So the patent would need to be on the additional feature? or I am thinking I just reach out to the company who makes the product and see if they are interested in adding my idea to their product.

philoshop Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 You want a patent attorney who knows something about the particular market. And it takes a pit bull to defend intellectual property or you'll lose it in a heartbeat. Been there, done that. If you don't care about the rights, send the idea to companies that have the resources to develop, manufacture, and market it. They're very open to free ideas and suggestions. It cuts down on their R&D costs, and if they get the slightest whiff of it they'll steal it from you anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
