• How and Why Amazon might be the right online channel to SELL your own invention

 
About Dennis Clayton
Dennis Clayton launched the (Patented) Original “Stow-n-Spin” in 2015 on Amazon. Since then, units sales have steadily increased to over 2,000 units a month, while maintaining a 4.6 Star Rating on Amazon. In mid 2018, Dennis launched a Deluxe model that is generating $60,000-$90,000 a month just on Amazon - and growing daily.
 
His background includes 30+ years in Design, Drafting, Research and Engineering, primarily in the aerodynamics industry. On a personal note, earlier in his career Dennis had the honor of ground-handling Air ForceTwo for the Vice President of the United States twice. And if that is not enough, he is a true descendent of famed explorer Danial Boone.

Apply for Walmart’s 7th Annual Open Call NOW through August 10th! Virtual meetings held Oct 1st.
We are thinking of changing our NDA Policy and taking comments
 
Is it a BIG DEAL to you that we have an NDA? Do you feel more comfortable discussing your invention ideas because of this? 
 
Please email me HERE if you have an opinion on this!  

We are excited to share that the application process for Walmart’s 7th Annual Open Call is open now through August 10. Walmart invites entrepreneurs dreaming of landing their shelf-ready, U.S.-manufactured products on Walmart shelves to apply for the opportunity to meet with Walmart buyers on October 1 via virtual pitch meetings.

The October 1 Open Call virtual event kicks off Walmart’s celebration of U.S. Manufacturing Month and will include similar programming to previous years. In addition to one-on-one pitch meetings with Walmart buyers, participants will have an opportunity to hear directly from Walmart executives and learn from company leaders during smaller breakout sessions designed to inform, empower and encourage supplier-hopefuls. This year’s attendees could secure deals ranging from a handful of stores in local markets to supplying hundreds, even thousands of stores, Sam’s Clubs and on Walmart.com.

Thanks to Sarah Kowal of Right Now Enterprises for this announcement!
