How To Acquire Exclusive Product Rights
In Shortcut to Internet Millions Jeff Paul says getting exclusive rights to a product can be very good also, not only for your own products obviously, but for products of other people. Here’s some options you have:
1. Copyright. In Shortcut to Internet Millions Jeff Paul says copyright laws cover your intellectual property and your printed information, software and sculptures, and they are international in scope so they give the creator the exclusive rights to sell their work for a lifetime. So, those rights also transfer to the creator’s family for what might be 50 to 75 years beyond the author’s life. I think currently anything from 1922 and before you can pretty much use but you should consult a good copyright lawyer.
2. Patents. In Shortcut to Internet Millions Jeff Paul says coming up with a unique patent invention is another way where you have exclusive rights. These are a little more difficult and it’s also more expensive and a lot harder for most people to do.
3. Go straight to the source. Jeff Paul says according to Shortcut to Inernet Millions, whoever has rights to the product you should try to negotiate exclusive marketing rights from them and depending on what you arrange, you might have the absolute sole right to promote this product on the Internet, for instance. Or you might have certain distribution channels or certain languages or certain geographic areas. You never know what you’re going to get until you talk to the primary source. We’ve actually gone out and acquired the rights to books and courses and other things, and we are currently negotiating and trying to get the mail order rights to a product that has sold well on television, but it has only sold on television. So once we start promoting it through the mail, we expect it to be successful also. We’ll be the only ones that have the rights to sell it through the mail.
4. Go to the library and look at old newsletters and old books in print editions and find old products and services that have been lying dormant. Jeff Paul says in to Shortcut to Inernet Millions,There are tons and tons of things that sold in the ‘60’s, ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s, and even before, that was just as relevant in those days as it is now. Some of those products just simply need to be updated, and some don’t even need to be updated. So, that’s another way to get products.
5. You can also just run ads. “Do you have an idea for a product? I’m a marketing expert. If you’re an author, inventor, vendor, manufacturer, or importer of unique, hard to find products that you think would be a hot seller with the right marketing help, let me help you.” Jeff Paul says in Shortcut to Inernet Millions, then give your contact information.
