Motion Touch

Today I contacted 'Motion Touch', they are a prototype manufacturing company based in England. They have a manufacturing outsourcing plant in China. I requested a copy of their privacy policy to sign and return to them before I release any drawings. I presume costing may be quite high, but again this is a first time experience for me so I really have no idea what it will cost to prototype my design.

Patent filed & I'm happy to holiday!!!

Yee Haaa!!!!!! Today I got confirmation from the lovely Terry @ Ansons Patent Autoney in Belfast that my patent was filed on the 23rd July 2009. I am a very happy lady today :) I can now begin the process of finding a manufacturer who will prototype my design and so enable me to approach possible prospects ie early learning centre etc. I am going on holidays tmrw for a week and am itching to get home again already and get on the phone, email etc and get the ball rolling :)
Im away now to get my eyebrows waxed and my toe nails painted so I'll write back again soon!!! Happy Holidays xoxoxo

Progress so far...

I signed up to start this blog in March 2008, a few months after the birth of my baby. I never got round to blogging even once! To date, a patent application is being drawn up by Terry @ Anson's patent autorney in Belfast. I have recently completed a 'BOOSTER' course with Invest N.I in their Belfast office in Bedford Street. The course was made up entirely of women, as it was aimed at women entreprenurs. I made many great business contacts and some great new friends as a bonus! The course covered many aspects of business and was sometimes incredibly boring and sometimes incredibly enlightening...
