Have an Idea for an Invention? Make It A Reality Through Crowdsourcing


If you have an idea for an invention, you may need some help developing your idea. There is a service called Quirky that allows you to submit your idea and get feedback from members of the Quirky community that can help improve your invention and make it a reality.

Even if you don’t have an idea of your own, you can participate in the Quirky community, provide feedback to improve other people’s inventions, and earn a share of the money if they are successful.

I’ve embedded a video below which describes how Quirky works.

Normally, it costs $10 to submit an idea to Quirky, but the coupon code “CRDIEZ” should allow you to make one free submission.

Have you used Quirky?  What other services have you used to help develop your ideas?  Tell me about your experience in the comments.

    I’ve been on Quirky for a short time, and it is really addictive. It is amazing to see things like the Pivot Power (link) where you know they spent thousands of dollars to get that thing built, and the guy who had the idea is making six figures for very little work. The hard part is getting your idea picked, but it seems like you can get a piece of the profits for other people’s ideas pretty easily if you influence them. Pretty cool! what other companies are sharing the wealth like that?

  2. Thanks for sharing your experience, Mike.
