Easy Path for Inventors

Easy Path for Inventors

Keep your day job and continue working on your business plan or growing your tried and true business. However, I have recently learned there is potentially an easy path for inventors and anyone else with an idea. This may work to see if an innovative idea will have any merit or even a remote chance to make some money, with minimal effort.
