Fantastic Experience with Patents to Retail! Working with Patents to Retail has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their professionalism and commitment to keeping me informed every step of the way have been exemplary. Unlike previous experiences with other firms, I felt fully supported and engaged throughout the entire process. What stands out most is their dedication to delivering value. They not only developed and manufactured my idea but also provided a solid guarantee of placement on both ****** and ********. This assurance was a game-changer for me, as it gave me the confidence that my product would reach a wide audience through reputable platforms. After many years of nurturing my idea, THE ******* ADJUSTABLE SUNSHADE I finally found a partner in Patents to Retail who not only believed in my vision but also had the expertise to bring it to fruition. Now, I'm eagerly anticipating the launch of my product, confident that it will meet with the success I've always dreamed of. I would highly recommend Patents to Retail to anyone looking for a trustworthy, capable partner in product development and retail placement. Their professionalism, communication, and commitment to results set them apart in the industry. Richard ******* *** ******* ********** ******** ******* CA

I think this company is very deceptive. I believe they preyed on people during the covid crisis when citizens were given money. Ironically, in hindsight, it was EXACTLY the amount they asked for to " buy" and "try" to sell your product to other companies. In my opinion, Patents to Retail is a MAJOR JOKE!!!Patents to Retail

Response to Inaccurate Review on Patents to Retail I am **** ******, President and Owner of Patents to Retail, and Im writing to address your recent review posted about my company. I have worked in this industry for over 40 years, successfully representing products across retail channels, and take strong exception to the your allegations of deceptive practices. These comments are both inaccurate and unfounded.We executed a formal agreement with this client in April 2021 for a 12-month period to represent their patented anchoring system in the marketplace. Throughout this period, we collaborated closely with the client, who actively participated in producing the work product used in our solicitations. Our team initiated outreach to 48 retail and e-commerce partners over the agreed time period and within the first 30 days started providing monthly updates through April 2022. To support this effort, we sent hundreds of emails to our buyer contacts to maximize visibility and potential interest.Despite a challenging licensing landscape due to the patent's ageoriginally issued in 2008we extended the agreement for an additional six months at no charge to the client, based on promising interest. However, the unique constraints of a soon-to-expire patent limited our ability to secure a viable licensing agreement. It's worth noting that the client approached our firm 13 years after the patent was granted, which contributed to the challenges faced in obtaining third-party interest.On November 10, 2024, more than 2 years after the expiration the client contacted us, and we responded promptly on November 11, explaining the situation. We offered a free production consultation valued at $2,000 to assess feasibility for direct manufacturing. This consultation would have included a guaranteed placement on major platforms like ****** and *******, where we maintain established relationships as a prime supplier and a 2-day ship emblem! The client, however, did not respond but instead opted to post a negative ********* firm has a longstanding track record in product development and retail placement, with over 500 products brought the marketplace, 36 of which are active today. We understand the disappointment that inventors may feel when a product does not receive the anticipated market interest, but this is not reflective of our companys dedication and integrity. Our clients lack of success after 16 years is regrettable, but we have continuously supported their efforts and extended services well beyond the original agreement.If the client wishes to reconsider our November 11 offer, I am still open to a conversation to explore new avenues.Sincerely,**** ****** President, Patents to RetailReview fromCalvin R

I have had an incredibly positive experience with Patents to Retail! From redesigning my product to assisting in getting a pending patent, developing production and retail packaging, producing the final product with my input, and now shipment coming into their warehouse and placement on 2 major platforms Amazon and ******** they've exceeded my expectations. I recommend for anyone looking to license or manufacture a new product idea because my experience with them is glowing and speaks highly of their capabilities with such a successful partnership!Patents to Retail

WOW!! We are going to do this review a little different...see **************** told me to "go ahead and write a review " see he's a veteran in this area obviously, so he knows that all he has to do is write one of those extremely long drawn out rebuttals of your complaints. He will explain how much experience he has and he will break down your complaints one by one, and how great he is so on so on...go read the reviews...he's extremely predictable with his style of rebuttals...but also read the complaints because they are really consistent as well. I was going to tell all of my experience, but I've decided to focus on how he talked to me...let's just say I had to say a little prayer...and my conclusion is, if you want to give this person your thousands of dollars ?? and you don't even get a chance to look him in the eyes...then go ahead trust trust him! He has a very arrogant attitude....actually I was embarrassed for him...he comes across as an unsuccessful man who lost his values and good morals, "in my opinion"...don't take my word only, take some time to read all the 1 star reviews...I mean you are giving away literally thousands of dollars...we all can't be wrong or out to get ****************....be smart and do your homework!! We will wait until *************** responds before I give receipts !Patents to Retail

**Response:**Wow, in 40 years of business, this is the most unusual and absurd negative review I have ever read. Clearly, as everyone must realize, when dealing with hundreds of clients, it is impossible to please everyone, and this is clearly the case here. Yes, I am the president and owner of Patents to Retail. With 40 years of experience, I have successfully brought several hundred products to the mass retail and eCommerce marketplaces. Currently, we have nearly three dozen products actively being sold. I am also an inventor with 20 issued USA patents. Despite all our efforts, this client was impossible to satisfy. We adhered to all the terms of our executed agreement with timely updates. However, there is never a guarantee of success in licensing a product. With the contacts I have established and the products we currently have in the marketplace, I clearly have the ability to make proper professional presentations of this clients product. Unfortunately, even though everyone feels their product idea is a winner, it doesnt necessarily mean it is. Apparently, despite our work, no one has voiced interest in his item.In my lengthy career, the reality is that one can expect an approximate 3% chance of successfully bringing a product to market. However, I strongly feel that my company gives our clients the best opportunity to get their new product idea out there. Despite a few three-star reviews or less, we have over four dozen five-star reviews on the Better Business Bureau, reflecting our successes.It is very easy for a disappointed client to post a hostile, derogatory statement because their product didn't resonate in the marketplace. This is no fault of my firm, as we made professional presentations with diligent follow-**** Further, this client made threatening comments via email, which led us to consider making a police report. This is a worrisome and hostile individual who has not only threatened legal action (which I am prepared to defend) but also made literal threats.Despite this, in my desire to resolve the issue, I offered him our production consultation, which he refused. My issue with the Better Business Bureau is that, under the First Amendment, anyone can say anything and get it posted online or on the BBB site. I trust the BBB will review this.In conclusion, my firm performs due diligence and professionally represents items for licensing, but we can never guarantee success. Our agreements are not exclusive, allowing clients to pursue their own avenues despite our efforts. Unlike our competitors, who may not have BBB listings due to negative reviews and lack of success, we are not fearful of this. We have a substantial number of five-star reviews and a proven track record of bringing hundreds of products to market. I trust the BBB will review and consider removing this absurd review as it does not reflect our company's capabilities or successes.Review fromJuan C

Listen to me...patents to retail approached me with a promising call and I decided to give it a shot..the upfront cost was $9000 for advertising and packaging..the first 6 months I received monthly updates and then nothing..I knew I was took when their only way of promoting my product was through email,but then to not even send me a single update after the first 6 months a really knew I was conned...if I wasn't conned they would return my $9000 since there is no advertising or packaging...they took my money period..it's been over 4 years now and they have completely forgotten about me...I see that they respond to some of these reviews but I'm guessing that they won't respond to mine..if they do just give me my money back...nothing is going to happen between us..there was no official or legal contract signed,I have proof of payment so give me my unused money back...I'm calling you out publicly...show how professional and honest you are...return the money you took from me after completely ignoring mePatents to Retail

Subject: Response to Your Recent Review
Dear *************************,
I am *********************, the President, and Owner of Patents to Retail, and I am writing in response to your recent one-star review. I must express my disappointment at the unjustified and slanderous nature of your comments, which I intend to address directly to the Better Business Bureau and now allow me to provide a point-by-point response to the issues you raised.
Firstly, you mentioned an upfront cost of $9000, which is inaccurate. Our invoice, dated October 15th, 2020, was for an amount less than what you stated. It seems there may be confusion, as you mentioned having used an invention promotion company, Invent Help, in your email to my office dated February 23rd, 2021. I urge you to rectify this confusion and remove the inaccurate review accordingly.
Regarding your invention, the Weight Bar Assembly (US 952-2298 B2), our relationship began with our invoice #***, dated October 15th,2020, as per our records. While our business model offers both licensing and production options, you chose the licensing option, which we have diligently adhered to, providing monthly updates as per our Agreement.
We have received several emails from you acknowledging our efforts and expressing appreciation. For example, your email dated January 22nd, 2021, commended our work, and another email on September 13th, 2021,expressed gratitude for our continued support. Throughout our collaboration,our updates and work product were met with your satisfaction.
Although our Agreement expired, we remain committed to representing your product should interest develop. However, it is disappointing that three years later,without any communication, you chose to post a fictitious and slanderous review. I urge you to reconsider and reach out to discuss any concerns directly. My contact information is readily available on our website.
In conclusion, I am disheartened by your review, which not only misrepresents our efforts but also prevents us from exploring further opportunities for your product. If you are serious about bringing your product to production, I invite you to reach out, and we can discuss options, including guaranteed placement on Amazon and Walmart.
I expect your attention and correction to this matter.
Sincerely,
*********************
President, Patents to Retail
