Design and Development Firms are in business because of their expertise, desired by their constituency, Corporate America. A firm of fifty needs to generate ten million dollars annually just to keep the doors open.
Developing New Product Ideas
Product ideas evolve from sketches, to prototypes to products. It's a unmatched learning process for new innovators!

Individual innovation and product idea innovation needs to be promoted and advanced. American industry grew in such a manner. Innovators pulled themselves up by their bootstraps.
The way it works is the inventor is granted for twenty years the exclusive right to manufacture and market her or his product.
However, a competing idea can be brought forth. The idea may serve the same purpose as the patented idea. However, if it can be demonstrated that any of the claims of the original patent are not violated, a new patent protecting the “got around” product might be granted.

“I help new innovators bring accurate definition to their product ideas for Application for Provisional Patent applications. Very accurate functional definition is paramount!”

So very important: The illustration and description shown below for a wall plug safety shield are prepared deliberately for attachment to a Provisional Application for Patent.
Provisional Application
Example
Both documents must be clear and precise if ever reviewed because of infringement on your idea. I can contribute significantly to that!

More often than not, illustrations precede CAD renditions. Both processes have important places in new product idea development.

The guy with the wheelbarrow? Many questions can be answered long before the checkbook comes out.

Yes! Shortcuts are made to prove feasibility, but never to the point that design and engineering principles are ignored.
Money can’t be thrown at it. Only original inventor creativity can. The idea most likely stands a ten percent chance of being new.
