Protecting Your Idea From Day One
Before any project conversation begins, we put a signed non-disclosure agreement in place, and every engagement is structured on a work-for-hire basis, meaning you retain full ownership of everything we design for you. We also maintain long-standing relationships with the patent attorneys and legal professionals listed below, should you need additional protection beyond what we provide directly. For a deeper look at how to protect your idea at every stage, read our guide:
How to Protect Your Product Idea Before Talking to a Manufacturer.
Our Referral Network
One of the benefits of being in business for more than 20 years is having built up a solid network of professional colleagues. As part of our product design and manufacturing work, OSE regularly engages with a variety of patent attorneys, law firms, marketing services agencies and other business professionals. If you need assistance in any of these areas, we've noted a few people we've worked with and can recommend. Feel free to reach out to them directly.

MARKETING
Many of our clients have products that solve real problems or have strong mass market potential, but they lack the expertise or relationships to get those products in front of the right buyers, retailers, or licensing partners. While marketing is not an area OSE practices directly, we have built long-term relationships over the years with trusted companies and individuals who specialize in exactly this work.​
​
Our network includes contacts in product placement, direct response television (DRTV), direct to retail representation for major big box retailers, home shopping networks, and product licensing representation for clients pursuing licensing agreements or investor interest.
​
If you would like an introduction to any of these resources, please reach out and we will connect you with the right contact for your specific product and goals.
