Everyone says you need to INNOVATE
Few Would Tell You HOW
Until NOW!!

We spent the past 4 years working with legendary Eureka! Ranch innovator Doug Hall, left, to perfect a SYSTEM that will help companies & individuals innovate. With the Eureka! Suite of Innovation Programs, we don't just tell you to innovate - we tell you how, show you how and work with you to build the system into how you do business.

The new Eureka! Suite has something for everyone - manufacturers, inventors, investors, entrepreneurs, researchers and more. Planet Eureka! at www.planeteureka.com is the portal for the Eureka! Suite and for the National Innovation Marketplace that brings it all together.  REGISTER FOR A FREE ACCOUNT TODAY and get in on the action.

Our Eureka! programs recently caught the attention of Vice President Biden and Commerce Secretary Locke who noted in a news conference that they were excited about the potential of the National Innovation Marketplace. ABC TV recently featured our Merwyn Business Translation program on Niteline.

The Eureka! Suite Includes:

Eureka! Profit 101 - Introduction to the Eureka! Innovation System
a 1/2 day workshop that will orient you to the Eureka! Winning Ways innovation system. You will learn how to generate, refine, rank and develop meaningfully unique ideas that will help you boost sales and profits. You will help the fictional “Buzz Electronics” company find ways to confront declining sales and profits as a result of an economic recession and foreign competition.

"As I consult with businesses around the globe, I have often looked for a system for growth and innovation that I can recommend to my clients.  I have now found that system in Eureka! The Nevada Management Assistance Partnership introduced one of my clients to the Eureka! process, and the results were outstanding. This client now has a system for growth and innovation within their business. I am going to recommend this system to other clients, as well as our industry as a whole."
Dan Beaulieu, Owner, DB Management Group

NEED INNOVATIVE IDEAS AND A SYSTEM FOR TAKING IDEAS TO MARKET?

  1. Eureka! Winning Ways (E!WW) : is an INNOVATION SYSTEM used to accelerate profitable growth from new or improved products, services, customers, markets and messages. The process includes:
    1. Stimulate: Project starts with an assessment of your team's attitude toward change. A Profit 101 session is used to orient your team to the Eureka! system. Your team is then taught how to mine for customer and technology focused stimulus that will be used in the creation of ideas for profitable growth.
    2. Innovate: A full day Eureka! Idea Engineering Session guides your team in the definition of 30 or more ideas for growth. The Eureka! method has been found to be 7X more effective than classic brainstorming as a result of improved collaboration and processing of stimulus from mining.
    3. Accelerate: You will refine your best ideas and enter them into the Merwyn Business Simulation system. Your Merwyn Research Report reduces innovation risk by providing fact based sales forecasts, fair market valuation, and probability of success.
    4. Discover: You will select Trailblazer "Scouts" and multi disciplined Trailblazer Discovery Teams to run your top ideas through a 30-day Trailblazer system of Plan - Do - Check - Act action planning that includes:
      1. Simultaneous engineering of the ideas by ALL departments in order to identify and address death threats and additional opportunities.
      2. Product and marketing prototyping that will help you complete "fail fast, fail cheap, learn a lot" cycles of learning.
      3. Simultaneous research in the areas of product, intellectual property, costs, budgets and more help you quickly identify and respond to death threats.
      4. Yes, No, Yes But Meeting after 30 days when your Trailblazer Teams recommend going forward with the idea (Yes), killing the idea (No) or going forward with changes (Yes, But).

        All three recommendations are considered a success in that you will be making decisions that speed profitable winners to market and quickly kill costly losers.

    5. Repeat: E!WW is NOT an EVENT - It is a system designed to develop a pipeline filled with MEASURABLY UNIQUE products that will boost sales & profit margins.
    6. Sustain: Select a Eureka! Champion who will maintain your new product pipeline, gather new ideas and call for regular reloads. Your Champion will raise product development to "cabinet level" so top leaders know what is in the product pipeline and how those new products will help them meet sales/profit goals.
  2. National Innovation Marketplace (NIM): The NIM at www.planeteureka.com ,helps companies painlessly list, find and filter potential innovation alliances from around the world. The NIM connects idea buyers, sellers, investors, distributors, researchers and manufacturers.



    Research finds that innovation driven growth is as much as 3X times more successful, 85% more efficient and requires 50% less capital investment.

What Eureka! Winning Ways is Not

“With Eureka! Winning Ways, we’ve learned how to create practical ideas that have great potential for exponential growth and to put resources toward them to turn them into reality. With our first idea from it, we could triple the size of our business.”
Gary Marmer, Questech, Rutland, Vermont
