    Thank so much Walter for your advice. It is in line with what I was thinking. So far they behaved extremely professional with us and we have a very good relationship. Should we ask them not to use our mold with other clients? Isn't that obvious?

    nop, There are 2 options, one travel to the US and the second get someone you trust in the US, make him member of your LLC and have him apply in the US. After the bank approval he "leaves" the company

    getting the distributors from the competition?

    We originally thought to become the distributors of our innovative product in the US and gradually expand overseas. Now we are thinking on focusing in getting distributors around the world, including for the US, instead of focusing in the US only. We know that our product is going to be copied...

    How to re-structure a deal with a partner?

    Here is the deal, Me and my brother came up with a new idea for a product over 4 years ago, we designed, patented, made the business plan, found the factory, etc. We did pretty much all we could do with our limited resources, but we knew that at some point we would need someone to put some...

    Are PR agencies worth it? I mean, they charge a lot of money but maybe they get a mcuh better access to media and influencers than if I approach them on my own

    MARKETING 
    Thanks! Lot's of good advice here. -When reaching to Infuencers/ Bloggers, do I have to pay them to review my product? - We do have money for marketing but PR/Marketing Agencies are charging over 5k a month which we find ridiculous. We will have to do it ourselves I guess.

    MARKETING 
    Something that I forgot to mention is that we expect that as soon as we put our product out there, people are going to start copying it, even if we own the patent. X is so well regarded that knock-offs selling for half the price of X are not selling as much and X is still the best seller in...
