For this week’s segment of Invent America, Michael King and co-host Rita Crompton welcome Hans Hartman and Stephen P Souders to discuss “The WHY and HOW of the Inventor Plan”. Proprietor of the “The World’s Best Ice Cream Scoop,” Hartman is a self-taught engineer, studying wind and hydraulic loading, as well as material strengths. Stephen P Souders is the inventor of “The Cut N Go”, a safety tool that is the only emergency seat belt cutter that is locked on, self-enclosed, manually-guided, and child proof.
Rita Crompton, known as “The Inventor Lady,” is an industry expert with decades of experience helping innovators develop their ideas into sellable products. Her knowledge and expertise covers all aspects of the invention process – patents and trademarks, engineering and manufacturing, crowdfunding, marketing and selling, and licensing. Ms. Crompton has helped inventors bring to market everything from full size functioning tractors to baby products – there’s a reason she’s called “The Inventor Lady.”
Michael King, known as “the Cajun Contractor,” has been in the home improvement and home construction industry for nearly three decades, first by working for a home improvement company and then becoming a fully licensed general contractor owning and managing his own home improvement company. For more than a decade, however, his knowledge and expertise as a general contractor have been put to use by hosting the nationally syndicated television and radio program HomeTalkUSA.
