Product Description
Join the innovation revolution--and turn your BIG ideas into BIG money!
Before the Internet made instant communication and collaboration possible, inventing a new product or starting a new business was risky. Innovators and entrepreneurs were often faced with the daunting task of doing it all on their own--discovering a market opportunity, thinking of the solution, getting funding, lining up manufacturers and distributors, marketing, and eventually selling the goods. Success hinged on having enough time and money to launch and grow the venture quickly--something many first-time entrepreneurs are unprepared for.
But today is the era of the amateur. Thanks to the Internet and the emerging phenomenon of open-source innovation, making money from your creative ideas and expertise is easier than ever. No longer do big ideas only come out of corporate R&D labs or from people willing to quit their jobs and go into debt to fulfill their entrepreneurial dreams. Today, big ideas come from everyday experts just like you--schoolteachers, construction workers, college students, computer-savvy teenagers, almost anyone.
Yet people with big ideas can't do it alone. The Million-Dollar Idea in Everyone is your guide to making a difference and a dollar. This information-packed resource includes practical, real-world advice to help you explore your ideas, test-drive them, put them into action, and turn them into long-term income--without risking everything. Whether you dream of becoming a millionaire inventor or just want to earn a little extra on the side, this revolutionary guide will inspire you, inform you, and help you turn your BIG ideas into BIG money.

Highly recommended for anyone who has had an idea they didn't run with. September 23, 2008
Mike M. - New Hampshire
I picked this book up as a curiosity, because like everyone else, I've seen new gadgets, shops and web sites that I had casually considered previously. This book is a great read for anyone who has had the same notion, but thought the process is probably too difficult - I've learned it's not! The author presents a step-by-step method for getting involved with the innovation process on several different levels, depending on the amount of available time and level of commitment. Written very clearly with lots of examples, hints and sources.
Brilliant Book! Best I've ever read July 17, 2008

My introduction title says it all. Never have I read a book with as much hands on, useable information as I've read in this book. Other enterpreneural books are laden with too much "pop psychology speaking optimism, keeping your chin up, never taking no for an answer". This is the first book I've read that contained information that I could acutally use, nearly on every page. Great job Mike. Please put out another one. I'll be the first at the bookstore.
Finally a Complete Guide for the Inventor April 29, 2008
Roger Brown (South Carolina)
Just finished reading Mike Collin's book and have to say he did a great job! I wish it had been available when I first started inventing. It would have saved me a lot of hardship and time. It is filled with great insight and common sense tools that every Inventor can use.
I have read a number of other Inventor help type books and always felt that they just didn't give the reader any useful information. Mike's hit the nail on the head with great information and personal experiences, not only by himself, but other Inventors. This book is a winner!
Formula For Success April 5, 2008

 The Million Dollar Idea in Everyone April 3, 2008
J. Casale (Cary, NC USA)
Mike Collins shares numerous, invaluable experiences that illustrate the path from "an idea", which is inherent, to creating something tangible and realistic that has an apparent market value. This book will encourage and engage the passion of anyone considering moving forward with an innovative venture.
