I’ve spent over $12,000 to a “Marketing Company” to try and get my product marketed. I signed a one year contract. Seemed like they just went through the motions for the year. They originally told me my invention had the potential toma make a million dollars! Everyone loves it but am at a standstill. Any help?

It is best to apply PPA and then license your innovation. PPA doesn’t take much time and it gives you one year time period to find a licensee for your innovation and persuade him to pay for your patent as he will be the beneficiary of this invention too. I hope that helps. Good luck!
