@MrHowToDoIt I've been submitting my ideas to edisonnation without success. However I am slowly learning what's expected. Let's chat. ralfcis hotmail. I'm also on twitter as ralfcis and ralfcism.
Keep going with your inventions, one day you'll find success.
Can I give you a suggestion?
Get your jet board, go to a catalogue (something like globalshop,com,au) who sell a couple of my products) and do a royalty deal. You need to remove the risk from the business perspective immediately, and this is the best way to do that.
If you only had 1 idea, I would suggest hanging on to it, but you have heaps, and I'm sure you have 10 new ideas a day.
It took me a long time to finally accept that I'm NOT a businessman, I'm an inventor.
As soon as I made the decision to be what I was suppose to be, I started making money, and I've never looked back since.
Business is hard. You're an inventor, and trying to do the books, balancing your accounts, sending invoices and dealing with all the bullshit will just eat into the time that could be more valuably spent on creating new ideas.
Keep inventing, get royalties. You WILL make money.
Your jet board WILL sell. I can't imagine there are many pools in canada (statistically), so I can't speculate on your local market, but if you started selling them in Australia (particularly in Queensland - our northern tropical state where every third person has a pool, but EVERYONE swims - a market of about 1.5 million, it'll make you money.
I won't say it will make you rich, but it will CERTAINLY make you money with a 5-15% royalty deal.
@ralfcis You know how a 2L Soft drink goes flat when it is less then 50% full? I don't drink pop that fast myself. You can fix it by pumping air in the the bottle to prevent the pop from going flat, The pop would last for weeks? So you can have like multiple choices on pop with out trying to finish off one before it goes flat. The carbon dioxide don't get released as fast when it is under pressure. Not sure if it would work. but you'll need a special cap with a one way valve & a pump. Partners?
@sherwind2010 I have a much easier way than pumping. Presented it 2 yrs ago. My 1st idea allowed you to open the bottle without ever letting any gas escape. My 2nd idea was way better because the real cause of decarbonation is movement, not lack of pressure directly. The Dragons liked it but most people I've talked to don't consider flat pop a problem. I do, so I use my invention every day.
damn.. i feel really bad for him :( , even though what they said was true they were abit too rough on the guy. and note to the guy: Sympathy takes u nowhere in the business world. the business world is a place where u step on weaker people to get to the top, sympathy aint gonna work.
Ugh to the discussion. Everyone on the internet is self-diagnosing or labeling someone else with Asperger's these days. Meanwhile even professional therapists in one-on-one sessions are reluctant to use the term since it's ill-defined and understood.
Don't put so much stock in labels, ralfcis. Just be who you are and what you can be, and don't worry so much about excuses or "bonus points."
Ralph, you remind me of on "Whose line is it anyways", they had that game "infomercial" where they thought of random things that can be put to use, just house hold objects.
You're hilarious, I hope you stumble upon something profound that just comes out of nowhere and becomes a major product. lol
I hope so too. My problem is not lack of ideas but lack of judgement, I can't seem to distinguish between the ridiculous and the sublime. Maybe that's a talent in itself. I want to use that "talent" to create a show called Enventorman, kind of a kid's show to get them interested in inventing with an environmental bent.
Interesting diagnosis. Could be true. I don't know. I wouldn't let it limit me if true. As Neitzche said, "When you label me, you disable me." or at least try to. But I was amazed at the symptoms.
Being aware of it is already a success. The problem is IMHO much less the fact of having this characteristic than the prejudices business man have against this type of people.
Oh crap, I read some more and I don't have enough symptoms. I was looking forward to being an aspie because I could have used it for extra bonus points if I succeeded and as an excuse if I didn't. Is there such a thing as aspie light?
It doesn't matter if you are one or not (which anyways is arbitrary definition-dependent), but whether you come across as such one.
As a business man you also invest in a person. Working together with a socially-akward and problematic character is something you would want to rather avoid.
I get less awkward each time I'm on the show as would anyone. What you see is what they want you to see. Aside from this you're right, they do want polished business men and that comes with business experience of which I have none.
An honour to speak to you sir, you have a beautiful mind and i'm positive your creativity shows your on the path to personal success, it annoys me that they were patronising and rude to you like that. The world needs more creative people and less gloom merchants :D
This guy doesn't get it, someone should have told him that you have to change an existing product by a certain percentage to claim it as your own. Taking plastic pipe and making it a circle isn't changing that product. Using something for other than what it was intended for is a helpful hint not a new invention.
Randy Paisley why don't you stop following me around. You'll find that making a strong, light, low cost reel by joining corrugated plastic pipe end to end is not only patentable but truly an original idea and will replace all flange and barrel designs on the market today. That's a huge market! Now go back to Shawnigan Lake and try to get your kids back into organized hockey. Please google this guy's name people.
Let's review my other products: he jet board attaches to your pool vacuum hose and your pool outlet so that kids can body surf all day around the pool without recharging batteries. Can battery powered pool toys generate 1 hp? This is not an invnetion?
The flush stop has been redesigned to be decorative flat disk that hangs from the reservoir. It has come in handy for me plenty o times when my toilet is about to overflow, I just pull the flushstop and no brown floor. Is there really something I've copied here?
Build a better mousetrap and you know the rest. The problem with poisons and traps is the disposal of the mice. Since the mice are trapped in a disposable pop bottle, there's no mess. The bait never gets touched and the mice just pile up when left in a cottage. I'm not re-inventing the pop bottle ahmed.
It takes allot of courage to go on a TV show with nothing and try to seperate these business people from their money. One would argue that is why they have money and this guy doesn't. Maybe he could invent a pot to piss in and a window to throw it out of and then claim the pot, the piss and the window are his inventions. That's what he's done here, he uses other products for other purposes, then claims them as his own. This is why patents are needed, to protect real inventors from this guy.
ahmed - don't make the mistake of interacting with this guy, he'll claim you're stalking him and call the Police. And the bit about my kids and hockey...we just received a settlement from HC and all my kids are back in hockey and leading their respective teams in scoring. Go ahead an Google me if you want I'm proud that I took on HC and won and it didn't cost me a cent in legal fees. It shows that if you stand up for yourself and you're right you will win. Unlike someone else I know.
mr.rbpais. I see that this fellow has spammed all of your videos. You should not reply to his comments he's seems obsessed with you. I hope for you're sake you don't live near him.
That's good! I've watched a couple of your videos and I can see your tool is neat. Let me think about it but I think I may get one for my brother. He's a gardener in Califrnia and i think he can use this.
No offense ahmed but my "I'm being Punk'd" radar is sounding it's warning bell. I don't mean to offend you and if I do, I'm sorry, but I see that today is your first day posting and I find it hard to believe this pathetic video inspired you to start.
Ahmed, you won't have to, I will get notified of the funds being deposited. This is no place to do business, if you're legit contact me through my website.
Neways,ignoring that psycho stalker, my last product has been reworked into a modular product called Smores Indoors and Broil Dog Kebob. It's like a BBQ indoors because it redirects radiant energy under the broiler to toast food all the way around.

Ahaha, that made me laugh. He is tough, but honest. At least this guy had some respect from the dragons, but that desperate, pathetic attempt to get a deal took away any dignity he had left.
Dragons shouldn't even had bothered with this one
The bigger the failure, the better the learning experience. Anyways, dignity's overrated. I took the NO, turned it around and am back ON again this season. Hope you enjoy.
Well, all I can say is Kudos to you. The fact that you had the courage to appear on the show is great. But, you did fail miserably. The presentation had a lack of professionalism, and wasn't great. You also showed a lot of weakness towards the end. You have a wild imagination, but need to work on business and social skills. But is nice to hear that someone learned from their mistakes.
I am happy to hear that you will be on again this season, and I can't wait to see how you did this time!
Unsolicited opinions are always the best. Thanks to editing, the presentation came out way better than it actually was. I'm just glad there was no dignity left to lose this season.
Maybe the shotgun approach wasn't the best idea. Hopefully Ralph will come up with one genius invention that is so amazing the dragons will wished they had backed him.
What they're looking for is a company that's already there - where they wont have to do any work and they can just lend out money and take 50% ownership of the company, with all the say in the direction of the company, not something that needs to be built from scratch because it's the hardest part of starting a business is the first few years.
The critism provided this gentleman was a bit harsh. That being said, the world of business is harsh in nature; requiring one to be on their game and on the money 110% If you can't handle it, you've either got to get out or step up your game. Hopefully this experience provided this gentleman with the necessary critism to enable him to better his presentation and process.
Just an update to prove my point. Updates on my business progress over the last few months.
-Part stake taking in 9 successful canadian companies.
- 750 000$ generated from cash in the bank every year non-compound interest. This excludes the accounts pending in business and is generated per year just on the cash in the bank.
- Bills continue to grow in volume but never in price. I've paid off 80% of required costs to run my portion of the business and projected profits are over 3 mill.
Magneto12345, anyone familiar with the world of business knows that it is simply too unpredictable to know for certain whether or not it is even possible to become wealthy. There is no such thing as a "dragon in training", your either there or your not.
shut the hell up magneto12345... dragon in training? you idiot.... "We cant invest in an idea that is so far away from possible realization." well that makes no sense... and who's we, i hate business students like you... dragon in training.... loser get a grip. your represent the vast majority of people i hate in business
To be honest, (Dragon in training here lol, still a student a month or so away from having my first mill in the bank and often meet the dragons) This guy was given a very fair chance to present his ideas. We cant invest in an idea that is so far away from possible realization.
The reality is that he is right. When you cannot find a job in your field of study, and you are over qualified for everything else ... you are stuck ... I was in that position for a long time ... and was lucky to escape it ... before you educate yourself ... make sure you will be able to get a job that you can live on and be comfortable with ... DO NOT ASSUME ... good luck ...
You remind me of carrot top's character in Chairman of the Board. And I know that was a horrible movie, but I mean that in a good way.

To be fair, the board with the jet was actually a good idea.
As if a kid wouldn't want that straight away if they saw it on an infomercial.
Cheap to make, cheap to buy, lightweight so distribution issues only arise with the size, and it uses existing equipment. That's 3 out of 4.
I would have sunk $20,000 at 50% easily. Probably $30,000 at 40% would have been approaching my limit.
The dragon's are too old. They didn't see it from a kid's perspective.

Magneto12345, anyone familiar with the world of business knows that it is simply too unpredictable to know for certain whether or not it is even possible to become wealthy. There is no such thing as a "dragon in training", your either there or your not.

To be honest, (Dragon in training here lol, still a student a month or so away from having my first mill in the bank and often meet the dragons) This guy was given a very fair chance to present his ideas. We cant invest in an idea that is so far away from possible realization.

The reality is that he is right. When you cannot find a job in your field of study, and you are over qualified for everything else ... you are stuck ... I was in that position for a long time ... and was lucky to escape it ... before you educate yourself ... make sure you will be able to get a job that you can live on and be comfortable with ... DO NOT ASSUME ... good luck ...

Poor fella - they were brutal to a good chap ... his mistake was he should have brought in 2 or 3 of his best products - less is more in this case.
