What I liked about this video the Guest’s age, he is about 65 and looks as enthusiastic as 14 years old.....that’s “The Inventors’ Mentality”.... Thank you Steve for this great input.
Great Stuff! I love the fact that Brian is the REAL deal - brilliant, quirky, good personality but ... NOT polished! His story is inspiring because he speaks of his setbacks as well as his victories. Thanks Steven!
Yes Brian is perfect example of how the imagination just plain kicks in with no extra effort. He see things in his mind before they are created. He continuously modifies things in his head and then with with tooling to make them what they could be. I totally get it, wish I could have started earlier. It's nice to hear about a story like his.
I completely agree with the connection to Brian! Hey, at times I wish I could have/would have started earlier. But, I remind myself I wouldn't have been able to work through things as well because didn't have the experience I have by getting started later.
Who or why would anyone give this a thumbs down!? MOTIVATING x2 I just started reading your first book. I have an old school buddy up here in Ontario that has met you Stephen. He and I are moving forward.
Ha! That's my friend Brian! After I' studied the IR program and read the One Simple Idea book, I told Brian about the program and I'm so glad he got involved... He needs a good team!
I've been delaying watching this video due to its length, but now I can say this was the best way to invest 15 and a half minutes of my life, in a long time!. Three takeaways (for me): 1) if you're working on an invention: FINISH IT! 2) Don't rush on a Provisional Patent, evaluate all possible angles 3) Have someone to keep you on track. Any other takeaway fellow inventors?
Wowww!! So inspirational!! Thanks!! I am following you all through my invention journey and I am doing all the things you all suggest..i really hope I get blessed like this guy!!
Give the guy a hug. It's hard to do the stuff you don't want to and aren't good at for the sake of the stuff that you do want to do that you are good at. But he did it so there's hope for others.
What an inspiration Brian is! I wish I had his brain.(Just realized Brian and Brain are the same letters) I am so happy he knew about PPAs, which saved him a lot of money. Steven: "So, you made, you made a couple of dollars?" (With a knowing expression) I am no expert in licensing, but his agent took a third of his royalties. That might be a little steep, and Steven might have thought the same, with a slightly revealing expression at 4:43
Stephen has said before that one of the industries to avoid is the toy industry. I guess the real secret to successfully licensing an invention idea, is to have a really good agent.
It was meant for me to watch your video. The day I found you was a little mysterious. I was on my phone and was looking for a patent attorney and your video channeled in on my phone. I was so surprised it happened so fast. I surely am glad that happened cause now I'm watching you, Brian and Anthony, these videos are so informative, thank you.
There is a list of inventor-friendly patent attorneys and patent agents on the inventRight website. Check it out: www.inventright.com/help/patent-attorneys
Great to watch this! The guy is very unassuming and down to earth and very talented. Inspirational to all of us out there trying to make our way in life. Thanks to both of you!
My new hero!!! Brian Walker I'm like you... Through out my life everybody had told me to concentrate on one type of project but I'm like you said General Inventor Thx for sharing this gives me hope that one of my concepts/ideas/projects are going to make it!!!
Holy cow this guy is me! Ive got ADHD and dyslexia. Struggled in school all my life but I've been pushing college and never stopped. In my free time I tinker and build cool random inventions. Id love nothing more than to make a living off my ideas!
Thanks Bryan Walker for your confidence. I, m bipolar, bilingual & bicultural. Diagnosed Hyperactive ADD at 33 years of Age. The Armed forces wouldn't take. Scores 72 percentile. Me because of age & large family. Got my first PPA 2015, with a revolutionary technology. One piece. Automotive theft determent lock and a hockey puck. Capable to be installed on Motorcycles wheels, Cars' Wheels, Trucks' Wheels, including attached to the Steering wheel. Basic embodiments fit 18-Wheel trucks ALCOA Wheels.Ramifications are able to instal on over 50% of wheel And/or Steering wheels on modern Transports. I have been inventing since 1995- i only applied for PPA. Expired 2015 We want to change paradigms. Thank you for your story. Thomas Alva Edison was mexican too, bipolar, bilingual And Bicultural. He spent $ like you, it doesn't matter it's only printed paper. Manufactured by the Bankers. Invent with the reuse, recycle & repurpose in mind.
Nice!!! I have a product idea right now that I am making the effort to license. I have so much more in my head.... I’m kind of like you with being more of a thinker than a speaker. So I hope these phone calls go well. Lol. Cause I get nervous. But I’m ready for it. Question. Can you get someone to license your product even with a provision patent?
Absolutely. 99% of our students license their ideas with just a provisional patent application. More on our strategy: www.inc.com/stephen-key/how-to-license-an-idea-without-a-patent.html If you're looking for help, reach out! www.inventright.com/contact
Wow ... , this interview video clip is truly awesome! There are lots of us out here, inventors, who don't know how to start or get the funding for our inventions.
Hi!! I just put in two provisional patent applications. It's my understanding the I have patent pending status now! One is for a type of trash bag. What do I need now? Do I need a video demonstration? Do I just call up companies and present? What's the next step? Thank you

I have an invention for a specific trade. I can see it being sold in 10s of thousands stores world wide! I used my first prototype and it worked ok. My second prototype it worked great. Now I'm hoping to start talking to the right people to get some samples made. Wish me luck!
This article describes what your options are when your provisional patent application is about to expire: www.inc.com/stephen-key/what-to-do-when-your-provisional-patent-application-is-about-to-expire.html
There's No Quick there's Quicker ... Best Phrase from Brian. this is the Alexandrian Smiling Economist Guy, Stephen ...I hope your enjoying and up and ready for the New Year . I sent this video link to my cousin down in NY Cheers.
Great video! Love both those guys! Question: If a PPA expires, am I correct to say that you can file another one if the product never becomes public disclosure?
That is my understanding and that you would lose your initial priority date when converting to a full patent application. This could be a problem in the event a "like-mind" comes up with a similar idea and filed their provisional before you re-file.
What are the royalties a percentage of? There are many costs associated with a product, like the cost of specific materials, the cost of basic parts, the the cost of transporting the parts to the factory, the acquisition price that the producer pays for his parts, the manufacturing cost of the plant producing the item, the acquisition price of the stores that buy the product from the manufacturer, then the market price of the product and so on. There are many prices involved in bringing a product to the market. Question is: Which price are the royalties calculated against? Many thanks!!
Good video I'm curious how you opened the door at disney. I'd love to pitch to them but don't have a contact there. Did you protect your idea beyond a non disclosure and a non compete, such as a provisional or another way.
Hey I just wanted to say that I sent my idea to a company via online submission and hard copy! Also that was on Monday (Two days ago) and I sent my idea proposal, sell sheet, and video. How long do you think I should wait? Even after that should I call and ask if there's anything I could do to help or something? LOL
What a trip to see my friend Brian on this program! I've been playing tag with Brian on some different ideas and worked with him in his shop. Pure GENIUS! I've never seen a mind work like his.
Very inspiring!! Thank you very much for those key aspects to have prepared before filling a provisional. I believe its important to have done all the work you can prior to getting in contact with a proposed company, and having all the steps for production and processes involved figured out prior would furnish the best chance for success!! Im not to sure if we are talking about having those steps inline before filling a provisional or is he talking proposing to a Company for licensing? I too have ADHD and have problems with bringing things to completion but feel really strongly about getting my invention to market, but need to step up and do those bits of homework to have that stuff to present!! Thank you again for all your efforts in helping us learn the lessons that you've been through firsthand... Any help would be greatly welcomed!! P.s. I actually have several items id like to licsence, and One id like to take over as a business and manufacture myself.
Hi Stephen, I know you are enjoying your work, but why Brian looks sad in the interview? Do you know what happened for getting him unhappy in his journey?
Find out more about the inventRight coaching program by calling 1-800-701-7993, emailing andrew@inventright.com, or scheduling an appointment: www.inventright.com/contact
Is he still getting royalties for this invention, the light chasers, or did his patent expire? If his patent didn’t expire how many years does he have left on his patent application?
Question. In your book you say to add your logo and company name at the bottom of the sell sheet. When and if the company likes your idea or contacts you about it who are they talking to and writing the check to? Will I be me or the company when on the phone and for signatures and royalties who am I signing as me or the company? Thank you love your channel.
inventRight coach Amy Jo Brogan has a video that covers the topic of when to create an LLC and why: th-cam.com/video/reObjkp5jJQ/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching!
Not disability. Just a special type of ability! Very inspiring
When he says grown up stuff scares him, everyone of us is a kid inside trying to project an image of competence. Great video guys.
Thank you for watching Judd!
#Adulting scares so many of us.. 🙇🏾♂️
This guys is as honest and real as it gets. Very inspirational for all us grown up "kids". Thank you for this.

I love this guy! “I have No boundaries”
Such a great line.
This guy reminds me sooo much of Robin Williams...great video and very inspirational!!!

He and Robin Williams were/ are bi polar.
Ha! This guy is my hero! Could we all get a beer!?

Brian give yourself a hand shake from all of us. Thank you so much as real people doing crazy things using their minds....
Brian is a true rock star in the industry!!!!! I so can relate to his background!!
He’s the epitome of a mad genius. What a brilliant guy.
N T yes!
"rejection is my middle name" man this was one of the best videos thanks guys! It truly is a numbers game
Thank you Stephen and Brian. This was such an energetic and inspiring interview!
Thank you very much!
Where is Brian from
Who or why would anyone give this a thumbs down!? MOTIVATING x2 I just started reading your first book. I have an old school buddy up here in Ontario that has met you Stephen. He and I are moving forward.
This is a great lesson from Brian that a “ disability” is not an excuse for him. NO EXCUSES for the rest of us!
Absolutely!
Imagination is more important than knowledge... words from a genius guy
Ha! That's my friend Brian! After I' studied the IR program and read the One Simple Idea book, I told Brian about the program and I'm so glad he got involved... He needs a good team!
Michael you ROCK!!! Thank you for spreading the word.
i had one of those light chasers as a kid, wow crazy
Hope you both had as much fun making the video as I did watching it!
Hello Chuck, it's time to interview you!
Of course, the main thing here is the vision of the inventors' creativity, for confidence in usefulness!
Very inspirational..thank you for sharing your story, Brian!

My older brother from another mother....thanks for inspiring not to quit
Excellent advice! Thanks to both of you.

I actually contributed towards that 10 mill. Bought a R2D2 @ Disney world 2013
Absolutely love this guy- both of you guys! Thanks so much for your inspiration and candid sharing- I can't tell you enough how much it means
Thank you for the kind words!

Nice interview!!! It is good to know that it is possible, no matter how many No's are part of the process.
You have to stay with it! Thanks for watching!
No just means not right now. You just have to figure out why not now and solve that problem.
This guy is special

Most do, read patents. All products start as Ptent Pending.
No product goes from prototype To Patented.
Best advice app! Finish your product before going on to another.
What an inspiration!
I would agree, thank you Darryl!
this is so amazing and i love his energy!!!!

Where did he send his invention? Sorry if I missed that? Thank you.
Your quest is exactly like me. Terrible in school, but I have outstanding ability to create, then do nothing with it, I’m looking to change that.
Really good! A big question for you .... once a PPA expires can it be applied for again??

Only persons invent, companies can't invent- they give persons or individuals patents, thus only a person is able to cash a check.
