One big advantage when you have a provisional patent or patent pending is that the licensee/manufacturer that your trying to sell you idea to doesn’t know what you have protected or what you haven’t protected. This is a great advantage.

However if your patent has already issued and you have a patent number, this can be good also. If you have a patent number, that means that you’re patent has issued/been granted. The manufacturer doesn’t need to wonder if you patent will issue with the claims/protection you applied for.

I would suggest that you not worry about someone seeing your issued patent. Instead, I’d focus on selling the benefits of your idea by using a sell sheet such as the one in this post.

If you’d like to learn more about sell sheet and selling your invention, I have a free webinar coming up. Just click on my name next to my picture in this post to attend.

You call the manufacturer that sells to a retailer. If you have a new hammer innovation. You call companies that sell hammers and already have distribution at for example. . . Home Depot, Lowes, Wal-Mart ect..

And yes, sometimes you might license to a sub-contractor that then sells to a big company like Sony.

Keep Inventing,
