LPs8e34 - Stay in Sequence to be Successful

Send us a text Patent Strategy and Product Viability Carmine discussed a situation involving a man with two world-changing product ideas that are currently under review by the USPTO. He emphasized that while the man is patent pending, asking for NDAs could be counterproductive and show fearfulness. Carmine also expressed concern about the man's plans to appear on Shark Tank and launch a Kickstarter campaign without disclosing his financial situation or proving product demand. He suggested that the man reconsider his approach and focus on proving the viability of his products before seeking partnerships or public attention. Strategic Business Launch Advice Carmine advised against applying to Shark Tank with an unproven idea and suggested that the gentleman should first apply for Shark Tank and then launch a Kickstarter campaign. He emphasized the importance of using resources wisely and not jumping ahead in the process. Carmine also discussed the dangers of contacting buyers too early without a finished product, as it could waste valuable opportunities. He encouraged controlling emotions and making the right business decisions when dealing with ideas and inventions. Balancing Emotion in Business Success Carmine discussed the importance of balancing emotion and rational decision-making in business and invention, emphasizing that while passion is crucial, controlled emotions lead to better success. He advised inventors to seek partnerships wisely and focus on presenting themselves as business-savvy individuals. Carmine also mentioned plans to re-release his "secret sequence of inventing" based on positive feedback and encouraged listeners to engage with UIA through various channels, including social media and upcoming events.

GOGs1e8: Behind the PopSocket

In this episode of Generations of Genius, we dive into the true story behind the PopSocket—an invention that started with two glued buttons and turned into a global phenomenon. Meet inventor David Barnett, who didn’t give up when people laughed at his idea, when prototypes failed, or when life threw him unexpected challenges. Instead, he redesigned, reimagined, and rebuilt—over and over again. This episode is all about persistence, problem-solving, and the power of starting small. Because sometimes, the simplest ideas become the biggest game-changers. Perfect for young inventors, educators, parents, and anyone who’s ever had an idea and wondered, “Could this actually work?” ---- This podcast is hosted by Innovation Station LLC On The Launch Network

GOGs1e7: Genius Behind Eco Bandage

Send us a text On this episode of Generations of Genius, I’m joined by Kiowa Kavovit — a true trailblazer whose entrepreneurial journey began at just six years old as Shark Tank’s youngest inventor. Now the founder of Eco Bandage, the world’s first colored liquid bandage designed in diverse skin tones, Kiowa shares what it’s been like growing up as an entrepreneur, building a business alongside her family, and learning that innovation often takes time, patience, and rebranding to truly get it right. We dive into the realities of being a young founder, evolving your vision, and why sustainability, inclusivity, and thoughtful design are at the heart of everything she creates. Kiowa also reflects on the long road from early invention to launching a product with real impact — and what she’s learned along the way. Kiowa is also an Amber Grant recipient through WomensNet, an organization dedicated to supporting women-owned businesses. You can learn more about the Amber Grant and its mission here: 👉 https://ambergrantsforwomen.com/about-us/ Learn more about Eco Bandage and Kiowa’s work here: 👉 https://ecobandage.com/ This conversation is an inspiring reminder that genius evolves — and that sometimes the most powerful growth happens when you allow ideas the time they need to fully become what they’re meant to be.

LPs8e29 - Frank Quantz Ultimate Knee Saving Invention, You Need This!!!

Send us a text Frank is a paint contractor for over 30 years. On his knees constantly every day. Tired of what the "STRAPS" were doing to the back of his legs and slowing down work production. "I was on my knees one day without my knee pads on and my knee popped out, i put on a knee brace for 4 days for the comfort and the last day something inside me questioned what knee pads would look/be like if i some how put these two together to create the ultimate Strapless Knee Pad" He went to the dollar store, bought 10 knee braces. Went to Joann fabrics and bought some needles, thread, and zippers. Went to Home Depot and bought 5 pairs of knee pads, went home to his basement and ended up with the final design after weeks of trial-and-error. Knowing he had something then, "because im in the industry and i knew what i was bringing to the table". Traveled around for 5 to 6 years, 3 states getting it into stores and trade shows to show its a needed and wanted commodity in multiple industries, and, IT IS !!
