How to Succeed as an Inventor Showing the Wonderful Possibilities in the Field of Invention; the Dangers to Be Avoided; the Inventions Needed; How to Perfect and Develop New Ideas to the Money Making Stage

"How to Succeed as an Inventor" by Goodwin Brooke Smith is an early 20th-century handbook for people who dream of creating and patenting their own inventions. It acts as a plan for prospective inventors, covering everything from start to finish: necessary actions for creating successful inventions, the significance of patents, and the business plans to bring those inventions to stores for purchase. Beginning with an inspirational tone, the book draws attention to the never-ending chances accessible to inventors in a world that is rapidly changing. Smith explains that modern society always has new needs, countering the idea that there are no new ideas and cultivating unending opportunities for inventions. The book then focuses on introducing significant market research and practical demonstrations that must be completed before an inventor wants to seek patents.
