What Inventors Are Saying"I recently engaged Patrick to provide me a detailed diagnostic. Although somewhat skeptical at first, I completed the online questionnaire and waited for the results. Today, we reviewed the analysis and discussed the results. I am EXCEEDINGLY pleased beyond measure! I wholeheartedly endorse the approach and the process, and without hesitation, I recommend to any serious inventor that he/she obtain the diagnosis that I did! Thanks, Patrick! You saved me money from that I would have spent on false starts and you provided me invaluable insight into what my focus should be going forward. Please consider me a very happy customer." "I now have a much better idea of what I have to do. I feel much more committed to this project now that I know what steps to take, it is quite overwhelming but at least it is more tangible. So thank you!!" "Patrick has an incredible desire to help an inventor. Having gone through a few consultants, I'd love to share my opinion on why Patrick is awesome. He has the know-how to put the inventor anxiety in perspective. This helps not just alleviate their concerns, but take action towards making the right strategy and tactic. He's a great communicator. Overall, I love his approach, and he is not afraid of pointing out the un-obvious even if the answers could be painful. His blunt approach gives me a strong reason to sit with him again in the future." "As a new inventor, I was taking on many roles -- sort of flying blindfolded, not really sure of what I should be focusing on now. I joined the Manhattan inventors Association about a year ago, which was founded by Patrick. Every meeting he has a guest speaker who really gave invaluable information and shared great resources. Aside from the speakers I could see that Patrick wasn't only passionate about helping other inventors, but that he was exceptionally knowledgeable about this topic. From joining this club I found an engineer who made my prototype for a fraction of cost that I was being quoted. I hired Patrick as my coach. He really got me to focus on what was most important for me to get my product off the ground. He told me where I needed to spend the time and money right now. He sent me in a whole new direction and got me focused. I will continue to use his service and take advantage of his knowledge." "To say I learned a lot would be an understatement! I come from academia, and the InventionScore® took me from the land of the 'what if' to the land of the 'what is'." "I tried another product evaluation service, and the InventionScore® has better prepared me to continue on the path to get a licensing deal. I scored higher in some areas than I expected, and Patrick was able to guide me on the problem areas." "It was helpful, and not hard to do. I liked the fine-tuned layout of the InventionPlan®. The advice was diplomatic and honest." "Answering the questions helped me understand where I’m at. Educational and thought provoking, it kept me grounded. The results were no surprise because the questionnaire prepared me, which was helpful in and of itself. I loved the layout of report. I was kind of nervous, but I figured: better find out now than in a boardroom." "People trust and respect Patrick. The great thing about the InventionScore® is it clarifies everything and lays it all out comprehensively. He asks the questions that I didn’t even know to ask, and that's why it's valuable. Now I know what I have to work on. It feeds the mind and helped grow my idea." "Scoring high was not my goal. Just the questions themselves were a learning experience. Thank you for your professionalism and integrity throughout this process, Patrick. I really appreciate it." "Patrick helped me make significant progress with my invention, which is very much an early work in progress. He was able to pinpoint my weaknesses easily and give me constructive criticism that I can translate into immediate action. In particular, I highly recommend the one-on-one meeting because that's where I received a lot of personalized feedback. Although I think the InventionScore® is still in development, I think with a few tweaks (such as referrals to additional outside resources), I will be a repeat customer." "You forced me to think about my invention as a business instead of just a hobby. I felt more confident at the end than when I started. It quickly identified hidden roadblocks. Well done." "Patrick Raymond Rocks!!!! What an awesome presentation and wonderful educational mission. It was by far one of the best and most memorable in the 10 or so years that I have belonged to I.A.N.E. (Boston area group)." "You did a great job at the seminar today! You provide a great value to others. Job well done." |
