I used to run the sales and marketing department for a product development company. I worked predominatley with companies such as: Bombardier, Sunbeam, etc...companies that already owned their patents, however, what I do know is this....Go to a patent lawyer, make sure you and/or they research what is already patented out there, such that you won't have any legal issues out there. Once, you apply for th patent, you may affix "patent pending" to your marketing, etc....collateral. Also, kind of a silly thing, but take what you have written up and send a copy of it to yourself, don't open it up.....
There are a lot of products that you can sell that are not being exploited properly that you can make a lot of money on....working with people who own the rights to a product but have no way of marketing. Usually the people who develop these products have no practical ability to market.....Could be a cool thing to look at!
If I may be of assistance in any way let me know....haven't had my head in that direction in a while but if I may make something easier or less expensive.....hey, why not!
-Best Of Luck
