I have a simple and very cost effective idea. I have completed all the initial steps you have recommended. Now I need to know who to follow up with for perfecting my prototype, mass production, and marketing. Is there a company or website that I can trust to include in my venture?

Hi Kim,

Just look for your product on QVC and I saw that your zip off bed ruffel product is being sold under another name and another person.Did you sell the rights to this other company to use your idea?

And the first step is taking ANY step towards your dream. Then take a step everyday after and before you know it, you are a 1/4 of the way there…..or more!

Hi Kim. Do you generally require retailers to sign a non-disclosure or other privacy agreement prior to presenting a unique new product?

Great article! I think these are awesome tips for any new entrepreneur or start-up. I think a lot of people come up with good ideas, but are too afraid or unsure of how to break into the market of their choice. Your steps make great guidelines!

Kim,

Great post. After many years of thinking of products to sell but lackingthe capital, I finally decided on selling a service with much less upfront expense and overhead.

It is essentially a service that matches those with app ideas with app devlopers.

Great stuff Kim as always! Your skills and knowledge of TV shopping and retail in general is what sets you apart from so many others in the field. The big key of course is for people to realize how significant the world of retail is and having the proper knowledge is critical to having as shot at landing products on the shelves of America’s retailers.
