The patent sales environment attempts to bring together sellers and buyers. Often it is difficult for them to find each other. This is when it makes sense to use a patent broker, such as TransactionsIP. We develop a marketing strategy for your Patents and Technology; create a Brokerage Marketing Package; implement a marketing campaign targeting the key decision makers at the prospect buyer companies to showcase the patents for sale; then work with both the buyer and seller to ensure a fair monetary amount can be agreed upon by both parties; and lastly close the sale. Working primarily on a contingency basis, TransactionsIP’s ultimate goal is cash generation for the client.
TransactionsIP also provides IP strategy, four affordable patent valuation services, and four patent analytical services.
