CommerceByUs.com applies proprietary “best guess” methods within the spectrum of SP analytics and specific data field systems to evaluate ideas. We continually solicit and invite idea inquiries for preliminary assessment with our Subjective Probability Indicator (“SPI”). Any SPI score above 85 or higher suggests at least an 85% possibility exists that the idea has commercial value. Your idea remains confidential without disclosure to CommerceByUs, Inc., only the category of the idea is initially revealed. If accepted by us, a Non-disclosure Agreement and Letter of Intent, which includes a “stand-still declaration” to allow four months to evaluate the idea at our expense is sent to the idea holder. Upon the return to us of the executed documents, and the idea holder’s overview and supporting texts, we shall launch Phase One of three stages.
In business, ideas are a dime a dozen, and you need a lot of dimes before a good idea can accelerate into reality. Bad ideas and good ideas are the same until they are tried. Each idea is a vision that requires imagination and confidence to lift it one inch off the ground. What’s a lowly inch? In business it is not 25.4 millimeters, but a sum of value necessary to execute on the idea. The risk to “test” the idea doesn’t go beyond imagination until the money factor is addressed. Thousands of ideas never reached their potential because of naysayers, ignorance, or limited funds.The best example was the simple handheld box camera a billion-dollar idea that spawned a $155 trillion industry. David Henderson Houston received the first patent in 1881 for a camera that used a roll of film. The immigrant farmer from Glasgow, Scotland, offered the idea for a mere $150 to partner the production of the camera. An estimated 27 individuals and organizations did not invest in the idea, claiming in part, it was worthless with limited application since the idea had been around since the 18th century and no one believed it was practical.George Eastman was the only person who said “yes” to the idea in 1887. His humble handheld box Kodak camera launched in 1888, loaded with a film for 100 exposures and cost $ 25, made employees, visionaries, and Mr. Eastman extraordinarily rich. The Kodak had a $300 billion monopoly in the market until the last quarter of the 20th century when Nikon became a competitor of Kodak. Since then, the idea has evolved with the advancement in digital technology. Today, the lowly idea of the Kodak camera spawned a $155 billion industry.
Why wasn’t the Kodak idea embraced by literally hundreds of thousands of people since the 18th century until 125 years later when one person executed on the idea?
There is no answer. The idea was accepted by George Eastman and in the process was amply rewarded. We are not saying CommerceByUs, Inc. has an idea worthy of the Kodak example, only that ideas are:
V + M + E + P=S™
vision +money+ execution+ patience= success
