Its good to read your feedback. I always have ideas and recently I came up with a simple yet very commercial idea and like to translate that into a marketable product. I dnot understand that unlike other companies, InventorHome gets a % of the sale then why they would not take care of their client.?
I would like to ask you, what other companies are there one can trust and work with?
I would greatly appreciate your response.

@Invention101. you could contact the Chinese consulate in your area and they should be able to give you a list of reliable companies.

It is VERY doubtful that you will find what you want on the internet without a lot if due diligence.

Default invention home company

Been doing some research on some Invention/Patent companies. I have an idea and looking for help from one of these to get started. I was working with "Davison Design" and found that they had a law suit against them in which they lost and are rated "F" with the BBB.

I then found a better company "Invention Home" that has an "A" rating from the BBB are hardly any complaints compared to Davison.

I haven't paid either any money yet, but want to get started and really thinking about Invention Home.

Any further thoughts on these two companies?? And now that I decided not to use another company how much is true that the old one would steal my idea???

Thanks,


Sarah

Default !!Beware. Research this and other companies like it first!!

DO NOT SEND THESE PEOPLE YOUR MONEY. PLEASE. YOU WILL NOT GET ANYTHING FOR IT.

Look, when you have a great idea or product, maybe one that is even selling for you at first, you are gung-ho and over exuberant. Stop, step back, take a breath and dont do what I did. I contacted this company about 5 years ago and paid them about $850 for a provisional patent, marketing help and industry contact service. After a year of not a single company interested in my idea and some lame reports on their site, I wised up and hired a real patent attorney. First thing he said to me was "sorry you had to learn the hard way". They outsourced the provisional patent and it was poorly done.

What I learned is that companies like Jacob Enterprises profit from the new inventor who thinks he or she has the next million-dollar idea but who hasnt done enough research or reading to know what is involved in getting a product to market. Through talks with my attorney, reading a couple books on the subject and researching online, I learned that these companies (and there are several out there) can actually do more harm than good for you.

Bottom line, stay away. Better yet, call them and ask for a list of their patented, marketed and successful products. And some of the names and phone numbers of their happy clients.
