To register and sell your brilliant idea, here are the steps and tips

  • Register as a vendor by clicking on the button below
  • Click on "My ideas for sale" then "add"
  • Follow the instructions in the tutorial below to properly document the different fields
  • Separate the information about your idea into 2 parts:

                  Part 1 published on the site which must be detailed enough to attract buyers but not too much so as not to reveal the entire idea before payment

                  Part 2 not published on the site which contains all the details of the idea and which you will communicate privately to the buyer after agreement on the price

  • Write "9 Euros" in the box indicated (payment of this fee by the buyer will allow you to obtain his contact details and the buyer to obtain your contact details)
  • Don't forget to upload a nice (non-contractual) image to illustrate the idea. You can download it free of charge on https://pixabay.com/fr/
  • Click on "submit for review" by the administrator before publication
