What industries create the largest revenue? What is the best way to work with these companies so I build a successful long-term relationship? How can I license even more products ideas? Why aren't companies getting back to me? How do I get the highest royalty rate? Why are my product ideas getting rejected? What type of protection do I actually need? What is the best way to submit my product ideas? How can I tell if a company is truly inventor friendly? How do I use non-disclosure agreements? How do I license ideas without any intellectual property? How do I negotiate a licensing agreement to make sure I get paid regardless of intellectual property?
