"Without the PLA Program, It would have taken me months, if not years...”
The PLA Program is an amazing and useful tool for those who have a need and desire to learn and implement the process of bringing an invention/product to market. Dan Engerer departs his extensive knowledge of the process in a way that is clear and understandable.
Not only do you learn what steps to take and what pitfalls to avoid along the way to your product launch, you are also inspired to examine your weaknesses and how to build your strengths.
Without the PLA Program, It would have taken me months, if not years to reach the point at which I find myself at this point in my journey.

"Worth every penny”
PLA is freakin' awesome and I can't recommend it enough for physical product entrepreneurs, especially first-timers like me. Worth every penny.
The PLA course is surprisingly holistic and Dan has done a terrific job of distilling huge amounts of practical knowledge across a wide variety of easily digestible topics. And it's not just knowledge, it's rolled into a roadmap with actionable guidance. There is a lot of content, all of it high quality, and extremely useful and actionable. I know I'll need to go back and watch some lessons again because they're really that helpful.
The best part of it all is that not only did PLA help me break through a wall, it helped me see that my original goals of some supplemental income were not just attainable, but a much bigger vision is also within my reach. Excited to see where this leads!
Lack of funding is an issue for virtually all new entrepreneurs and startups. Thankfully, you don't need to drain your savings account to bring your product dream to life.
From high-level strategy to task-by-task detailed guides, you'll learn the expert secrets to get all the money you need using crowdfunding, equity investors, private and government grants, and loans.
Digital marketing. Online sales Funnel. Amazon listing.
Sound intimidating? Not when you have copy/paste templates and click-by-click video lessons.
You'll build an automated eCommerce sales funnel that harnesses the incredible power of Facebook ads and the Amazon Marketplace.
3D renderings, simulations, prototypes... Where to start?
Learn exactly how to avoid common pitfalls and get your product professionally designed, engineered, prototyped, and mass produced as quickly, cheaply, and easily as possible (from someone who built a product development company!)
From the videos I learned immediately to save my money from an expensive patent application, opting instead to hire a product design engineering firm who are currently in the prototyping stage.

PLA is a $50 per month membership. The cost is negligible - you likely spend more on coffee each month. You will literally get hundreds of times of value and progress out of PLA than what you pay in.
You can progress through PLA at your own pace, there is no fixed schedule. We stand ready to help and assist at any stage in your journey.
Absolutely, 1,000%. There is no risk here - because if you follow the PLA process consistently, you are guaranteed to have your product launched and selling at the end.
Every product, niche, and inventor's situation is unique. Knowing this, we don't believe in any one-size-fits-all course or set of instructions that will get everyone to the finish line "out of the box". That's why we offer so much personalized, hands-on support for whenever you have questions or need help.
The main reason why startups fail is the lack of a market demand. With that said, the PLA process ensures that you don't make it to manufacturing until you've gotten strong market feedback and validation. What you must understand is that product development and launch is an iterative process, not a binary of instant success or instant failure. Continuous refinement and improvement is an inherent part of any product's success.
The "invention help" industry is filled with companies and individuals selling inventors on expensive yet useless products and services to "help" them get to the finish line. PLA is very different, because:
1: Our cost is negligibly low, and you can cancel anytime. We couldn't possibly maintain a vibrant community of ongoing members if PLA wasn't amazing.
2: PLA focuses on helping inventors with custom, specific direction as opposed to generic, one-size-fits-all packages
No problem. Whether you're a DIYer or you want complete "do it for me" service, you're covered. When you become a member of PLA, you get full access to our internal team of experts (coaches/mentors, designers, engineers, marketing experts, web page builders, retail experts, patents / IP, and more). You can book these individuals on an hourly basis as much as you want.
