This same link has been sent out in several DailyGoodieBox emails, and is probably where the original source got it from. I’ve seen it multiple times in DGB emails I receive. There are several companies that are similar, they too offer ‘free’ guides/kits. See BING search for several.

With all, information is free, interested companies will contact you. If you choose to work with a particular company, to bring your idea to market, obviously that company is going to assess a fee. I’ve done some research regarding obtaining patents, copyrights, manufacturing your idea, marketing your product, etc It can be daunting, and not something the average person can do. The companies affiliated with these websites know the required steps & process.

I would suggest that someone serious about bringing an idea to fruition, search Google/BING and try several sources. Until/unless you choose to work with a company, there is no upfront cost. The ‘free kits’ just help you do what needs to be done; to get the company you choose to work with, the information needed to get your idea to product development, then advertising and marketing it.

The kits, according to the various websites offering this, are provided by the companies that are interested in your idea - but they need information, sketches, schematics, descriptions, details, etc. in a format that is suitable for obtaining things like a patent and/or a copyright. A patent is issued for your original invention, a copyright for your original product name. Any fees, and how they are paid, probably are stated in the kit.

Anywhoo… here’s a DIY source, that is Finance Forum worthy, from NOLO, no lawyer needed. Good info as far as what you need to know, and the cost involved. More stuff from BING on obtaining patents.

Nothing happens when I click “New Topic”, I have to right click and select “Open Link in New Tab” from the drop-down menu to be able to post. Don’t know if it’s just me, or if others are experiencing the same issue.

From my email earlier today inviting me to join (I’m currently a Vocalpoint member).

We know that you have been an active member of Vocalpoint and we wanted to reward you by offering you theFIRST chance to join our new 50+ lifestyle community, OneFrontPorch.com.

OneFrontPorch.com will have all the same things you love about Vocalpoint like free samples and trial experiences, but customized to things relevant to an active 50+ lifestyle. We’re so excited about this new launch and our Launch Partner, Quaker® Oats!

To celebrate the launch of OneFrontPorch.com, we are giving away thousands of full size containers of Quaker® Oats – along with some other fun goodies!

So come on over! Join OneFrontPorch.com and then head to Something New and enter to claim one of our Quaker® Oats Heart Healthy Gift Packs!

This isn’t really a ‘sample’, it’s a promotional item. ‘Sample’ implies a ‘try before you buy’ item, which many products do to encourage purchase of the item, if you like it. A promotional item is used to promote a brand/product. In this case, it’s the National Pork Board promoting pork consumption. Delete the word ‘sample’ from title, it doesn’t apply.

I would guess that the GPTs (Get Paid To) forum is where posts for the various Social Media Campaigns should go? Like Daily Goodie Box, Skosay, Moms Meet Ambassadors, etc. These SMC’s all require reviews and an active social media presence, to continue getting freebie. Some require more involvement than others, but SMC’s only give the freebies to those actively involved in the program. The more you participate, the more freebies you qualify for.

Well, the Whois is solid. Nothing shady-looking there. And I see fivetalents provided multiple resources in links. This has been around, it was posted on FW in the thread about the Equifax breach in Finance. It’s a reputable website, but it’s always a good idea to check its Whois and it’s history & status via a Google/Bing search, when in doubt. The crooked scammer sites are usually dead giveaways, often by perusing their Whois alone.
