If your marketing materials arenât opening doors, they might be closing them.
Maybe your sell sheet isnât getting the kind of response you were hoping for. Or maybe you're not sure what to include in a one-minute video or how to craft a compelling one-sentence benefit statement.
As Chad Brislawn from our Gateway team put it last week: âThe point of your marketing materials is to get them to see the point right off the bat.â
And thatâs exactly what weâll be diving into during Licensing Playbook LIVE this Wednesday at 5pm Pacific.
Join our cofounder, Stephen Key, along with members of our Gateway team, to discover what makes marketing materials stand out to potential licensees.

Topic: Never Say These Things to Potential Licensees
Youâve got a product with real potential, and a company is interested in learning more.
Knowing what not to say is just as important as knowing what to say. One wrong move can make a company lose interest fast.
This week on Licensing Playbook LIVE, weâre talking about the things you should never say once youâre in conversation with a potential licensee.
Even a small comment or question can accidentally send the wrong message and cause a deal to fall apart. Join our cofounders Stephen Key and Andrew Krauss, along with Dana Knowles, our Director of Inventor Relations, tomorrow at 5pm Pacific on Zoom to make sure youâre saying the right things at the right time.

Topic: How to Get a Company to Call You Back

How to launch a product...Learn how to make money from your ideas.
We started our company inventRight over two decades ago to teach people how to license (aka rent) their ideas to companies in exchange for royalties. This is called âproduct licensing.â On our channel, we show you exactly how you to take an idea and license it to companies in exchange for passive income.
Today, you do not have to start a business to launch an idea. With product licensing, you donât have to write a business plan, raise money, manufacture, market, sell, or distribute your product.
Visit inventRight.com for more info.
