In this episode…

While it may seem easier to infringe on an existing intellectual property (IP) when it comes to creating products and designs, it comes with serious consequences and can spell trouble for a person and his company. Carlos Alvarez of Blue Bird Media & Marketing Solutions found himself in trouble when he and his business partner used another company’s design to make a product similar to what the other company had created. They were fined a lot of money and he gained a lesson that he will carry over into the next businesses that he will establish later on.

He discusses the benefits of patenting your products and ideas, his learnings from his experience of infringing on an existing patent, and he also shares what they do at the local Amazon meetup group he organizes in South Florida. Stay tuned.
