- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We'll MEET once you have determined in an initial PHONE meeting that YOU want to meet and seriously discuss moving forward. When we meet, we'll discuss in detail, NOT ONLY your "Concept", but will execute a confidentiality agreement securing YOUR interests as we discuss YOUR Concept. We'll ALSO discuss YOUR goals for SUCCESSFULLY realizing YOUR dream and the SUCCESS of YOUR Concept. You'll receive an e-mail summarizing our visit and what it will take to move YOUR Concept to the point YOU want it to go. This is DIFFERENT for each Client. Once you have decided that we have mapped out the SHORTEST and CLEAREST route to the SUCCESS of YOUR Concept, we will meet once again, and you'll give me clearance to begin. You will receive CLEAR and Frequent updates, in rendered standard PDF's and 3D-PDF's that you can spin and zoom on YOUR computer for the CLEAREST POSSIBLE UNDERSTANDING of the development of YOUR PRODUCT. YOUR Concept will go from IDEA to a CLEAR TANGIBLE REPRESENTATION you can hold in your hands and turn the pages, and share with others, including Patent Attorneys, Investors, and others of YOUR CHOOSING. If YOU choose, we can 3D-Print a PHYSICAL REPRESENTATION of your concept to rest on the table in your investor meeting to go along with HIGH QUALITY Information packets and illustrations, and - if you choose - HIGH Quality in-process Animations to go along with them. If YOU choose, we can even develop a fully functioning PROTOTYPE. YOU MAKE THE CALL. I'll even assist you in WINNING your Investing, selecting YOUR Patent Attorneys, etc... but that's usually down the road. Let's get started first - ONE STEP AT A TIME !
