: Dear Sir
: I know that this is a difficult question. I am entering negotiaitions with a major manufacturer and they have expressed a strong interest in my product. What is the range of royalties i can expect for a consumer product that is similiar to a garage door opener? I had an independent business plan prepared and the plan reports state wholesale can be in the 100 to 200 million dollar range.
: Thanks

Dear Mr. Knapp,

If you have paid for the business plan, there is a likelihood that you could be in the hands of the scam artists who take $100M+ a year. One in ten thousand get back more than they pay.

Without a patent, the people with whom you say you are negotiating may be crazy to pay you anything, that is if they are for real and not part of a scam ploy.
