When @Likwid24 was on the Mind Your Business podcast on Saturday, something he said triggered a realization on my part.
Did you know you can get a provisional patent for $65?
1. Sal talked about using RocketLawyer.com to do-it-yourself the provisional patent. Well, you can get a free 7-day trial from RocketLawyer. So, you can get the provisional patent paperwork done for FREE during the free trial by using their provisional patent wizard.
2. Then, you file the paperwork yourself with the USPTO. For a micro entity (which is you, as an individual or sole proprietor) the new filing fee for provisional patents for micro entities is $65
So there you go. You can get your idea protected for up to one year by a provisional patent, giving you patent pending title, for $65.

I would highly recommend reading a great self help book on patents and trademarks before you do the patent wizard, and note that provisional patents are only available for utility patents and not design patents.
