LICENSING

MRN INVENTOR HOTLINE BANNER

 

 

Gwendolyn came to us with an invention that was a new concept in holiday lighting. She had been granted a patent in 2010 and was having trouble getting companies interested in her product. We helped design a new product with all the advantages of the patent and would make the product much more marketable. We were in the process of finding an investment group to fund her project and others that we have in our portfolio. In August of 2012 we signed a licensing agreement with her and we have helped her find the funding. The Happy Holiday Lighting will be moving into stores beginning 2013.

 

Gwendolyn Ponamar – Inventor - Weirton, West Virginia

 

 

Dr. Jouira came to us in March 2012 with an idea for a medical device that would retrieve the four main vital signs simultaneously. We engineered and developed his invention and assembled an investor package so that he could gain investors for his project. We will fully develop his product for manufacturing and we will be marketing his product to sales representatives across the country to hospitals and doctor offices around the world. This the single largest product we have worked with and look forward to a great success and will put The Mars Rising Network.com on the map for more inventors in the future.

   Licensing your product can be a very necessary aspect of bringing it to the market and profiting from your time, effort, and money spent. Having personal experience in this aspect it may be the best option for you as long as you understand it.

 

   There is no one as close to your product as you are and no one as sincere about it as you are. The best advice anyone can give is to tell you that you are the best source of gaining a license agreement. This is not only our advice but many of the oldest and most experienced companies in the business. Entrepreneur Magazine, Entrepreneur.com, Inventors Digest and many others offer the same advice and it is good advice.

 

WE HAVE A LIST OF THE TOP LICENSING COMPANIES IN THE WORLD FOR NAME BRAND PRODUCTS. IF YOU SCROLL TOWARDS THE

BOTTOM OF THE PAGE YOU WILL SEE THE LIST.

 

 

Licensing your product is the best option when you cannot manufacture and market it yourself because of financial and logistical reasons.

 

An attorney or agent will always want an up-front fee with no guarantee of success and will want approximately 30% of the royalty.
You are the best advantage you have in licensing your product.

 

The biggest problem is YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO DO IT.
 Now that is right to the point isn’t it?

 

   First……have a real physical product ready to show them. If you don’t have that then a quality drawing with an NDA or Confidentiality Agreement must be signed before you talk to anyone. (We can provide one for you) A real product is preferable however a quality CAD drawing would be much more impressive and would help your position.

 

 Second……have your product protected through a patent pending. If you don’t have a patent pending it is possible they may pay for it as they will own the rights to your idea if in fact they have an interest. However without a patent being filed the value of your position is greatly weakened. It is much better to come from a strong position opposed to a weak one.

 

 Third……once they have evaluated your idea or product an Executive Summary will become the caveat to the presentation. As with any sales person you need to have a quality constructed presentation.

 

Your Summary should include:

 

  1. Show the competitive advantage over what already exists
  2. Will it be less cost than the completion and if not why would they buy yours
  3. How will it take the market share from the competition
  4. Will it cost less to ship
  5. Is the market larger or smaller or the same as the competition
  6. Will it produce a higher profit margin for the buyer and retailer
  7. According to the market size what would be the volume of sales per year
  8. Is it easier to manufacture and will it cost more or less
  9. Will it be the same or higher quality
  10. Lead times and shipping information is critical in the final decision

 

   These are 10 of the typical categories that need to be covered. It requires solid research and has to make sense. Having a Summary means it can be used many times over for many different prospects.

 

   We are here to help you through the process all the way. We will set up a professionally constructed Comprehensive Executive Summary for you with all the information a company will need to see.  Well researched and will be used for a long time to come through your journey. If you take your first steps carefully and inexpensively you don’t have to spend that much to achieve this goal.

 

OUR FEE IS $250 – $500 FOR A COMPREHENSIVE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
WITH ALL CATAGORIES COVERED AND INCLUDES A CUSTOM MADE
MUTUAL CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT (NDA) FREE OF CHARGE
