Cincinnati Invents!
The Inventors Council of Cincinnati (ICC) has been working on making arrangements with a small local
retailer to carry ICC members’ inventions. The next step in this process is collecting information from member
inventors who would like their inventions to be considered for this opportunity.
Here’s how this will work:
o
The retailer will choose inventions from a listing compiled by ICC o The inventor will be contacted by the retailer and
asked to sign a consignment agreement o One invention will be featured in this Cincinnati store each month o During
this month, the inventor will participate in a one-day "Meet the Inventor" event at the store o The store will keep
on hand a stock of the inventor’s products on a consignment basis o At the end of the month, any remaining stock
will be returned to the inventor with a check for the products sold
Once we have information for several promising
products, ICC will provide that information to the retailer. As we gather information about additional products, that information
will be continuously passed along to the retailer. Once the retailer chooses the first product to feature, we will
send out a press release and notification to members.
If you are an ICC member and wish to be considered for this program,
we need the following information from you:
o A photo of the product (digital images ideal; a print will also
do) o A description of the product o Pricing information (wholesale/retail) – no bar codes necessary o Information
about product availability o Your contact information o TWO copies of any product brochures or other literature you
may have
ALL TYPES OF PRODUCTS WILL BE CONSIDERED—and even if your particular product isn’t selected
for this opportunity, if the project is successful, ICC may be able to identify similar opportunities at different kinds
of outlets. If you are a member and if you have a product to sell, please send your information to:
