Thank You!

We wanted to say THANK YOU to Stephen Key, his family and to all who attended the presentation on licensing your Invention on 12Apr17. If you missed it you missed a lot!

Unlike other authors who will give you just enough information to make you want to buy their book, well not Mr. Key!!! He talked us through each step of how he successfully licensed product after product, he gave out books and stayed to sign them and told us personal stories and examples. I think it’s safe to say that Mr. Key is welcome back anytime.
