40+ Years of Innovation
Bringing groundbreaking ideas from initial concept to market success with over 40 years of proven business, engineering, and product innovation experience.
GET MY IDEA OUT™
You Have the Idea. Let's Help You Get It Out.
Helping Inventors Turn Ideas Into Opportunities I Understand—Because I've Been There Myself.
There is a big difference between someone telling you how to bring an invention to market and someone who has actually walked that road themselves.
For more than 40 years, my life has been about ideas, business, technology, product development, marketing, innovation—and figuring out how to turn something that begins in your imagination into something real.
I've experienced the excitement of creating.
I've experienced the thrill of getting a product into major retailers.
I've also experienced the mistakes, setbacks, financial losses, disappointments, and hard lessons that can come with trying to bring an idea to market.
That's why I created GET MY IDEA OUT™.
I want inventors and everyday people with great ideas to have something I wish I had when I started:
Someone who understands the journey because they've lived it.
MY STORY STARTED WITH A CARDBOARD BOX
Growing up near a horse racing track, I spent many weekends there with my father.
He loved the excitement of horse racing, and I became fascinated by everything surrounding it—the horses, the betting, the furlongs, the strategy, the anticipation, and the excitement of watching a race unfold.
One day, that fascination turned into an idea.
I found a large cardboard box and started drawing and building.
I didn't have investors.
I didn't have a product-development company.
I didn't have a team of attorneys, engineers, designers, marketers, or consultants telling me what to do next.
I just had an idea—and I
believed in it.
That cardboard creation eventually became a real game.
Then I began learning everything that comes after the idea: prototypes, development, manufacturing, packaging, marketing, demonstrations, distribution, retail relationships, sales, and protecting what I had created.
Eventually, something incredible happened.
My idea made it onto the shelves of major retailers, including Walmart and GameStop.
I traveled throughout the country demonstrating the game from store to store and helping create sales. I even produced an inexpensive infomercial to introduce the product to more people.
For an inventor, there are few feelings like seeing something that once existed only inside your imagination become a real product that people can actually buy.
I had gotten my idea out.
But my education wasn't over
THEN CAME THE LESSONS NOBODY TALKS ABOUT
While I was traveling and demonstrating my product, I trusted someone else to handle important parts of my business affairs.
That trust cost me dearly.
Money disappeared.
Investors began fighting.
Relationships broke down.
Eventually, the situation became so difficult that I had to stop something I had spent years creating.
It was one of the hardest business lessons of my life.
But it taught me something I have never forgotten:
A great idea alone is not enough.
You can have an incredible product and still make costly mistakes.
You need to understand how to protect your idea.
You need the right agreements.
You need trustworthy people around you.
You need to understand patents, intellectual property, prototypes, manufacturing, costs, financing, marketing, distribution, licensing, sales, and business structure.
And sometimes you need someone experienced enough to recognize a problem before it becomes an expensive lesson.
I DIDN'T STOP MY IDEA
I continued developing ideas and eventually worked on inventions for the casino and gaming industry.
For approximately three years, I spent time dealing with gaming laboratories in Las Vegas while attempting to get products tested and certified.
I met other inventors there.
They had different inventions, but many had the same questions and fears:
Where do I start?
How do I protect my idea?
Do I need a patent?
How do I build a prototype?
Who can manufacture it?
How much money should I spend?
How do I know who I can trust?
How do I get someone to buy, license, or invest in it?
I began helping them using what I had learned from my own experiences.
And I discovered something important.
Maybe everything I had gone through could help someone else avoid the same mistake
40+ YEARS OF REAL-
WORLD EXPERIENCE
Over the decades, my journey expanded far beyond inventing.
My experience has included:
Business Development • Technology • Software • Product Development • Prototyping • Marketing • Websites • eCommerce • Importing & Exporting • Manufacturing & Sourcing • Branding • Sales • Artificial Intelligence • Intellectual Property & Patent-Process Coordination
But the most valuable knowledge I have gained didn't come from reading a book.
It came from doing it.
From succeeding.
From failing.
From losing money.
From making mistakes.
From starting over.
From negotiating.
From selling.
From developing products.
From working with businesses.
From helping other inventors.
And most importantly—from never stopping creating.
THAT'S WHY I CREATED
"GET MY IDEA OUT™"
Today, when someone comes to me and says:
“I have a great idea, but I don't know what to do next.”
I understand exactly what they mean.
Because more than 40 years ago, that person was me.
You may have an idea written on a piece of paper.
You may have drawings stored in a drawer.
Maybe you've built something in your garage.
Maybe you've been thinking about your invention for ten years but have been afraid to tell anyone.
Or maybe you woke up this morning with an idea you believe could change your life.
Wherever you are in the process, your idea deserves to be taken seriously.
YOUR IDEA REMAINS YOUR IDEA
I understand that an invention may represent years of thought, sacrifice, hard work, and dreams for your future and your family's future.
That's why your idea should be treated with respect and confidentiality.
Your idea remains your idea.
Our role is not to take ownership of your vision.
Our role is to help you understand the process, evaluate the opportunity, develop your concept, identify potential problems, and create a practical pathway for moving forward.
When appropriate, confidentiality and nondisclosure protections can be established before important details of an invention are disclosed.
FROM “I HAVE AN IDEA” TO “I KNOW MY NEXT MOVE.”
Every invention is different, so every inventor may need a different path.
Depending on your project, GET MY IDEA OUT™ can help guide you through areas such as:
IDEA
Idea Evaluation → Concept Development → Market Research
PROTECT
Intellectual Property Strategy → Patent-Process Coordination → Confidentiality
CREATE
Drawings → Prototype Planning → Product Development → Testing
BUILD
Manufacturing → Sourcing → Cost Analysis → Packaging
BRAND
Product Naming → Logo & Branding → Websites → eCommerce
MARKET
Marketing Strategy → Digital Marketing → Demonstrations → Sales Strategy
FUND
Business Planning → Funding Preparation → Investor Presentations → Licensing Opportunities
LAUNCH
Product Launch → Distribution → Retail Opportunities → Market Expansion
You don't have to figure out every step by yourself
NO FALSE
PROMISES. JUST
REAL EXPERIENCE.
I will never promise that every invention will become successful.
I won't promise that your idea will make millions.
And I won't tell you to spend thousands of dollars simply because you're excited about an idea.
No ethical company should make those promises.
Instead, I want to help you ask the right questions before you spend the wrong money.
What I can promise is that I will take your idea seriously and bring more than 40 years of real-world business, technology, product-development, marketing, and innovation experience to the table.
I've walked this road.
I've experienced the successes.
I've made the mistakes.
I've learned the lessons.
And now I want to use those lessons to help the next inventor.
YOUR STORY COULD START TODAY.
Somewhere right now, someone is sitting at a kitchen table.
Someone is working in a garage.
Someone is drawing on a napkin.
Someone has a prototype sitting in a closet.
Someone has been carrying an idea around for years because they simply don't know what to do next.
Maybe that someone is you.
More than 40 years ago, I started with a cardboard box and an idea.
I could never have imagined where that idea would take me—or everything I would learn along the way.
Your idea may be at the very beginning of its journey.
Let's find out where it can go.
