A1: Join the "IoI" Inventor's Club For Instant
Free Sound Advice
& Guidance
on a one to one telephone & face-to-face basis.
A2: Club Members benefit from IoI knowledge & experience -
Michael received $150,000 within two weeks of contacting Pratt & Witney -
USA, and
£75,000 within 9 days of contacting Motorola - it may sound easy - it is not!
It requires strategy and
the right techniques to reach the honey pot.
A3: Lone Inventors are subtly misled by unethical patent
attorneys & promoters emphasising secrecy & costly
patenting without evaluation of invention merit. So
you've lost, if it is not new, cannot work, inferior to similar products, and won't
sell. IoI first evaluates your invention.
A4: No! Definitely not! Not before
invention is evaluated - by IoI!
This avoids wasted expense & effort. IoI evaluation is at no extra
cost.
If invention has merit, IoI will suggest best
strategy.
A5: Yes, shockingly disadvantaged on 10 counts using Patent Attorneys:-
1. Inventor is barred from talking to
patent office examiners & staff.
(Not so with IoI).
2. Patent mail is sent to Attorney, who charge
extortionate fees
to post to client. (With IoI, mail goes to client).
3. Attorneys never evaluate
inventions for
functional viability. (IoI do).
4. Attorneys never evaluate inventions
for
commercial viability. (IoI do).
5. Attorneys do not evaluate inventions
for patentability. (IoI do).
6. Attorneys never improve nor ingenuitate inventions.
(IoI do).
7. Attorneys seldom have real world of
the invention they file. (IoI always do).
8. Most CI Patent Attorneys have no right of audience in UK County & High
Courts. (IoI do)
9. There is no redress against
Attorneys
failing to evaluate & advise that invention is worthless.
10 Beware Attorneys using secrecy to mislead one into believing that
a worthless invention is a money spinner!
A5: Print, complete and mail Enrolment form & Confidential Invention Disclosure Form.
Preferably for instant membership, just telephone 020 8998 6372, or 020 8998
3540 giving your card & details you can be enrolled immediately.
A7: Yes! Invention Evaluation is our strong point. As far as
we are aware no other body evaluate to ascertain:-
a. Is Invention new? - (If not, it is worthless)
b. Will Invention work? - (If not, it is worthless)
c. Is Invention better than other products on the market? - (If not, it is
worthless)
d. Is Invention commercially viable? - (If it won't sell, don't invent it!)
If IoI's answer to a. b. c. & d. is yes, the IoI can help maximise your chances of
making money on it.
PATENTS.. ?
Q7: What is a Patent.. ?
A7: A Patent is an Intellectual Property Right - a Document of ownership
of an Invention.
A8: By drafting and filing a Patent Application in the Patent Office of
the desired Countries.
A9: No! It requires skilled preparation of detailed drawings description,
and claims which must conform to complex Patent Office formalities and protocols. Without
expert guidance self drafted Patent applications are not worth the paper they are typed
on.
A10: Yes! The Institute does prepare and file professional engineered
Patent Applications for its members at subsidised costs.
Visit Patents Prepared by Institute of Inventors.
A11: Reduced cost. By filing in the Inventor's own name and address there
are further savings when dealing with amendments required by Patent Office Examiners - who
are usually very friendly and helpful towards Private Inventors. Also the work is
undertaken by expert professional design inventor engineers who enhance
the quality, coverage and value of the invention at no extra cost. Most so called
"Charted Patent Agents" are not design engineers and are unable to enhance
an invention.
BEWARE OF SHADY INVENTION PROMOTERS!
Q12: Are there any reputable Invention Marketing Brokers?
A12: No! None, that we can recommend.
Beware of some shady Invention Promoters! No matter how worthless your invention
they will
lead you to believe that it is brilliant and that you are going to make a fortune.
None are able to give names and phone
numbers of satisfied Inventor clients.
A13: No because rogue Invention Brokers are not technically
capable of selling an
inventions. Selling Is the most challenging of the invention process.
A14: No! We are not Invention Brokers. If an
Inventor is successful, the Institute will be pleased to accept a voluntary donation as a
token of appreciation of services rendered. *Privately negotiated sponsorship deals
between members occasionally occurs and is encouraged.
Q15: I have fears of my invention being stolen.
What should I do..?
A15: Historically
there hasn't been a single case of an Inventor's invention being stolen before the
Inventor became financially successful.
If anyone has substantiated
information to the contrary verifiable Names, Addresses, Phone Nos
IoI will pay £300 for
same.
A16: No! These issues cannot be dealt with by e-mail; only by two-way
telephone conversation for instant feed-back technical reasons - please phone Michael on:-
00 44 (0)20 8998 3540 or 00 44 (0)20 8998 6372
