Turn Your Idea or Invention into Millions

By Don Kracke

Now an inventor whose product ideas have generated over one billion dollars in retail sales shares his success secrets for aspiring inventors! In Turn Your Idea or Invention Into Millions, celebrated inventor and best-selling author Don Kracke begins with the first flash of inspiration and guides readers, step by step, through the adventures, passions, and pitfalls of launching a new product.

This entertaining, humorous, and incredibly informative guide reveals hundreds of insider tips on researching, patenting, manufacturing, funding, and promoting an invention.

Don Kracke shares his success secrets to help fledgling inventors take ideas from their imaginations and bring them into the commercial marketplace. Readers will discover what to do—and what to avoid—when getting an invention to the retail shelves, calculating wholesale and retail prices, and using advertising, packaging, and publicity to sell the product. Plus, they’ll learn how to determine if their idea has any market value, target the right audience, leverage a marketer’s interest into free help, and much, much more.
 
Reviews

"Inventing and selling a hit is like catching lightning in a bottle…this book is your lightning rod."
—Caleb Chung, Co-Inventor of the Furby Toy

"I laughed, I cried, and I wished that I’d met the author twenty-five years ago. This book contains seventy years of priceless wisdom packed into a couple of hours of revelatory storytelling. Don is a mentor to inventors everywhere."
—Eric Scot Frydler, Founder/Creator of Toymorrow, Inc. and Inventor of the He-Man and She-Ra Action Figures

"In his new book, Turn Your Idea or Invention into Millions, Don Kracke skillfully leads us down the complex and challenging road of the invention process. He articulates— through almost a lifetime of experiences—pitfalls to avoid in order to triumph at this oftentimes elusive profession."
—Michael W. Boehm, President of Intellection, Ltd. and Inventor of the George Foreman Fusion Grill and the Pillsbury Ultimate Mixing Bowl

"Don has done it again! In this book, he reveals the secrets to his phenomenal success—another Kracke gold mine of information."
—Stephen Paul Gnass, Founder of the Invention Convention® Trade Show and President of the National Congress of Inventor Organizations (NCIO)

"II just wish that I had read Don Krackeís book Turn Your Idea or Invention into Millions before I began my work as an inventor. It would have saved me much time and money as I developed and marketed the first disposable diaper which fit the baby, New Band Aids without the red string, and sixty other patented products."
—Stanley I. Mason, Jr., President, SIMCO Inc.
