Y'know, that's not a bad license petiton there. I'm still hammering out mine! Yours is just for a
tattoo, mine
has more mass and sale value. My license petition incudes details of the components, as well as
manufacturing instructions, etc.
And yes, I'm including a "peak-demand subcontracting" clause that will allow Jim to subcontract
other
manufacturers to make the articles if so interested when I can't meet up with the demand. I'm
using
collegiate-style license contract format. I don't have the money or all the requirements* for a
commercial
licensing contract. I'm also allowing for labor regulations, I don't know your stance on unions,
so I assume
you'll want the manufacturing workers to be well-cared for.
Be patient, Jim, it's a great set of products.
* Licensee must have 2 bank accounts, provide 3 years' sales history in the item's category, must
provide a
non-branded sample for quality checking (software must be a demonstration of software engine with
desired improvements installed), and must be able to produce containers full of product to be
shipped to
wholesale distributors.
