Hello. I am a new Fastlaner and recently read MJ's book. I feel fortunate to have an idea that could fill certain key entrepreneurial requirements (i.e. provide to many, easily delivered product, demand etc.). However, the idea is essentially intellectual property which I have found to be one of the more difficult areas to protect/define.
Basically, I have an idea for a product that would be sold in a digital format (delivered through internet/PC) through the website of a very well established company with a huge customer base. Additionally, the product has a strong likelihood of consistent regular purchase (not a 1-time buy). The product would basically be an "add-on" purchase for this very well established company and sold through their website.
My problem is I am unsure how to propose the idea to anyone (even an IP lawyer) without it being stolen. Can anyone offer any advice in this area? I feel like I can develop a plan to propose this to the company in question if I can just be sure the idea is protected.
Thank you very much for any help. I'm happy to be in the forum.
