The idea itself is not the "key" for success, so it is not so urgent to protect it. What is important is how to realize the idea and make it successful and of course who is on the back of the idea and how she or he wishes to fight for making the best out of it. "Protecting the idea" probably is one of the reasons why many ideas are lost. Realization is what matters. Ideas alone have no value. So, what to do? make a business plan and a business model. And don't loose the chance of getting feedback from potential investors: what do they like or what not. Some weeks ago I've heard from a Microsoft's guy: "Planning without realization is dreaming". I think the same is for ideas "great ideas without planning are just dreams". Good luck and break the stone wall of protectiveness (the wall is made on paper...not stone)! Hello,

Companies, products, ideas, don't just happen. They come from hard work, planning and experience. You have a one in a million chance that someone will give you a wad of cash for an idea. A business plan is the first step in putting ideas like this into motion. If you don't have a business plan, how is anyone going to understand how good your ideas are?

A person may consider a pet sitting business to be the most exciting work in the world, while you would rather watch TV than take care of dogs. Or someone might say a storage business is good, but if you don't have the resources and interest in that business, then it will not work for you. The key is to determine what your interests are, what you want to do, what is suitable for your lifestyle and your overall goals, and what can fit with your resources. Dan Ramsey in his book "101 Best Home Businesses" has a chapter on how to find YOUR best home business. He suggests these 10 steps: 1. List 5 things you do best 2. List how others would benefit from what you do best 3. Find out how to give people what they want 4. Learn the value of your services to others 5. Find out who else offers similar services 6. Learn from the successes of others 7. Learn from the failures of others 8. Plan your own success 9. Make low cost mistakes 10.
