"We have been asked why we are providing this information for inventors for free? The answer is simple, the owner of Global Resource Broker is an inventor who has been scammed by invention marketing and invention promotion companies while just trying to bring his idea to the market. He has vowed to provide a honest, factual view of the industry and the companies that make up the industry which include the good the bad and the ugly."
Innovation Direct, which has changed it's name multiple times over the last 15 years.
2011 - was Invention Technologies,
2005 - was Licensing Direct
1999 - started out as International Technology Transfer otherwise known as Invent Tech. http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/specific_search/INVENT%20TECH
As for their success being patented, this nothing more than a software program they patented which manufacuers use in order to review inventions. Innovation Direct claims that they are directly responsible for every success story they mention on their website when in reality the invention success really had nothing to do with going through the companies process.
The orignal company Invent Tech had such a bad reputation as you can find through this ripoff report link http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/specific_search/INVENT%20TECH

Review date: Dec 01, 2014 Company Name: Idea Design Studio • Company Website: Ideadesignstudio.com • Review Title: Not Bad, But Be Cautious I also used Idea Design Studio for one of my projects. The upside was they were affordable ($350) and got a 3D prototype done within a week of product idea submission. The proposed patent cost was $3000. This was for a design patent. However, when I questioned them further it was a Provisional Patent which is only good for one year. Why pay $3000 for a Provisional Design Patent when you can get a full 20 year utility for $10,000? Didn't make sense to me. The other thing that was not making sense was they provide marketing but didn't take any money on the back end such as a percentage for getting you the deal. I found this odd and saw this as a lack of motivation to get me a deal if there was no longer anything for them to gain once I paid them the upfront costs. Didn't pass the common-sense test with me on that deal structure so I decided not to go any further with the organization with my idea. NEW UPDATE :
This company provides a unbiased thrid party review of several invention marketing and invention promotion companies, we have highlighed a few of them below for your reference. Source : http://unitedinventornetwork.com/invention-company-reviews/ Review date: April 20th, 2014 Company Name: World Patent Marketing • Company Website: worldpatentmarketing.com • Review Title: New Company I talked to this company and I did a patent search with them however as I found out they are a very new company with no real success stories from any of their clients. They seem like good guys but do not have any real track record. A little on the expensive side so tread lightly here. Date of review Dec 1st 2014, Company Name: World Patent Marketing • Company Website: Worldpatentmarketing.com • Review Title: Sketchy Company This company was a furniture company called Dessa Industries that in 2014 decided to jump into the invention business. The reason there are reviews on the site is they ask the customer for an initial review of the agent they are working with from the first or second conversation when you are in the initial phase of your product research. Before the research guide was completed and sent back to me I thought they were great and said so in my comments on the site about agent "JAY **** ." However, after I received the finished product that included an incorrect drawing that was submitted for the university study portion, I was no longer pleased with the service. When I brought this to the attention of World Patent Marketing management they accused me of submitting the wrong drawing to them and yelled and argued like we were husband and wife arguing at the house. I asked the gentleman was he actually defending his company's mistake by yelling at me, and reminded him that he was asking me to invest another $10,000 on top of the $1250 I already paid for the patent search and the market analysis (market analysis came back with data from India). He then continued to yell and I hung the phone up and counted my $1250 as a loss. I will never give them another dime of my hard earned money. They have no track record and all the videos online are false. Chances are if they get a deal for you, you will be the first as they have only been around since March of 2014. Check the registration date of the website online and see "Dessa Industries" and you will find that they aren't accurately representing themselves.

We never put down any other companies, but to shine light on the issues that we see commonly in our industry like World Patent Marketing. We encourage you to do your due diligence. Follow the link below in order to see the RIPOFF REPORTS that were filed by two customers and one employee. The complaints were getting to be so much that today 2/2/2015 they decided to contact ripoff report to provide positive information on the site which pushes down all the negative entries. Make sure to SCROLL down to the bottom to read past the marketing fluff they just posted. I have taken the liberty to highlight the original complaints that were posted BELOW and I also provided a copy of the post prior to the reputation management that we new would be done it was just a mater of time. RIPOFF REPORTS that was filed against WORLD PATENT MARKETING, INC / DESA INDUSTRIES INC. Our forensic research came back with the following results:
World Patent Marketing started out as a company known as Desa Industries which still shows on their BBB rating. The company Desa Industries is a Delaware shell corporation Tax ID 0699715 filed incorporation in the State of Delaware 02/25/2010. This was done in order to become accredited on BBB which requires a minimum of one year in business. Once they became accredited under DESA Industries they then opened up a foreign entity corporation in the state of NY as seen below April 21, 2014 and it was then changed to DBA WORLD PATENT MARKETING, INC. under the FL chapter of the BBB which might I add was not even a corporation but just a website name at this time which enabled them to falsely represent that they have been in the invention marketing business for the last 4 years and are BBB accredited. You will see below that the company World Patent Marketing only came into existing in Sept 16, 2014. You will notice that the TRADE MARK INFORMATION shows that the Name of World Patent Marketing was registered for trademark and started doing business. http://www.trademarkia.com/world-patent-marketing-86338064.html - First Use Anywhere:2/1/2014, - First Use In Commerce:2/14/2014 See excerpt form their about us section on their website; " WERE EXPERIENCED Since 2010, we have been recognized as the leading authority in the invention industry.

From our experience, the company is set up as a elaborate shell company game in order to show false representation in regards to length of time they have been in the invention business as well as a false accreditation with the BBB. This company is located in Miami FL, and like many of the others in our opinion, will not be here for the long hall. Its just a mater of time before the complaints start rolling in and they have to change their name and open up as another company you will find a few of them below.
