I have this great idea, now what do I do?
It is very important that you
tell no one of your invention until it is legally protected. Follow the
steps listed below to protect your great idea. Complete all the steps
and start calling yourself an inventor. Remember not all inventors
become rich overnight, some never become rich. But, if you do not follow
these steps you will be neither rich nor an inventor.
This is not legal advice, but steps we recommend.
Remember tell no one of your invention until it is legally protected.
