How to License Your Million Dollar Idea: Everything You Need To Know To Turn a Simple Idea into a Million Dollar Payday, 2nd Edition

I tend to invent larger products that solve complex problems which means a fair investment and lot of research occurs before getting close to market. This guy focuses exclusively on very simple products that can be produced by the average high school drop out and which can have an initial production run for under $500. My view is that if it is that easy to solve then it is too easy to copy and present's no competitive barriers to others. It is also unlikely to ever produce a product that has a meaningful impact. May be helpful for some but complete waste for me.

Much of book contains common sense topics that most readers would know on their own. Other books have been much more helpful in the licensing arena than I found with this one. Writer has a great deal of references to his web site to steer readers for licensing help. However he does not mention he charges a hefty fee to conduct such reviews. Book did not contain much guidance in area of options for selling your idea as other books on that topic have offered.

You should read this book before you move ahead with your idea. Really helped me to understand the process, what to watch out for and to take my time and do the research before spending my money to do a patent search.

I came up with an invention and had no idea how to protect it or what direction to go next. I had read several other books but Harvey's book rocked!! It gave me so much of the information I needed, I am considering submitting my idea to Harvey Reese to see if he can obtain a licensing agreement.

Straight forward tips and tactics about how to turn an idea into royalties. Worth the read if you think you have an idea that could make money.
