I love ideas and I want us to decide which ideas make it. It's that simple. If you have an idea, publish it...this community will give you honest feedback and if your idea is a good one, as judged by the community, we'll do everything we collectively can to connect you to people who can help make it happen. If we all support ideas from one another, we'll end up with more ideas from people and fewer ideas from boardrooms, where agendas are, well, clouded by other factors. We're going to be the one they sell to anyway right? So let's make our voices heard and tell the world what we want. The more we all participate, the stronger our influence, the more accurate the STOX VALUE, the more representative the greater good is in our reality.
I am blessed beyond measure. I have everything I ever wanted, and more in life. I have an incredible wife that I adore (I have no idea why she married a tool like me). I have the two girls I always dreamed of having (never wanted a boy). And I have incredible parents and a great brother who helped make me who I am today.In addition, I have a job that I love, and my own office (finally! No more stupid cubicles!)
I'm a forty-one year old, husband of fourteen years and father of two boys. I am an apprentice woodworker and volunteer firefighter and EMT.
I am researching the invention process and trying to move ahead with ideas. This idea stuff, if taken to its rightful end, is not for the faint of heart.
Ok, parents, we have all been there. Using our car keys, teeth, scissors and eventually sheer brute strength just to rip through the plastic fortress that surrounds the toy our (jumping, whining, can-I-play-with-it-NOW) child has just received. And once we breach the plastic, it's on to the dozens of twist ties and pieces of tape that are arranging each of the 27 individual pieces in a lovely, store-shelf friendly display.
Now, I get it that these torturous arrangements make it much more appealing on the store shelf, but I think that many many parents would prefer, and pay for, something a little more simplified on the home front. The key would be in successfully marketing the value of it, and finding a way to make the contents appealing, despite their simplified storage. One possible marketing marketing angle could be to promise "something that could be opened as easily as a box of cereal," for example.
Also, I think this approach would be cheaper and easier on the manufacturing side as well. AND better for the environment!
