    Welcome back to the Invent With Me Podcast. In Episode 82, Grant Martin shares an honest look at the frustrating side of inventing and entrepreneurship—the long days spent building systems, learning new software, setting up websites, filing patents, managing social media, and completing the countless behind-the-scenes tasks that nobody talks about.

    If you've ever questioned whether you're wasting your time, felt like your competitors are miles ahead, or wondered if you're simply being a "busy idiot," this episode is for you.

    Drawing from his own experience building TorkStrap into a seven-figure product business, Grant explains why the repetitive and tedious work of entrepreneurship often creates the greatest long-term rewards. From filing provisional and non-provisional patents to building automated systems that generate revenue while you sleep, the lessons in this episode are designed to help inventors develop resilience, optimism, and discipline.

    You'll learn why consistency matters more than motivation, how seemingly small actions can dramatically impact business growth, and why learning to love the process may be the single most important mindset shift an inventor can make.

    Whether you're developing your first product, launching an invention, building an e-commerce brand, navigating the patent process, or trying to turn your invention idea into a profitable business, this episode offers practical advice and encouragement from someone who has lived it.

    Topics discussed include:

    • Inventor mindset and overcoming self-doubt
    • The realities of entrepreneurship and building a product business
    • Provisional patents vs. non-provisional patents
    • Working with patent professionals during the invention process
    • Why inventors struggle with repetitive business tasks
    • Building systems, automations, and websites that create long-term value
    • Social media consistency and its impact on business growth
    • The importance of discipline in product development and marketing
    • How to think like a successful inventor and entrepreneur
    • Why execution matters more than waiting for the perfect opportunity
    • Creating assets that generate income and support long-term freedom
    • The role of inventor communities and peer support during the invention journey

    If you're looking for an inventing podcast that focuses on the realities of bringing products to market, manufacturing, building a profitable invention business, and helping inventors succeed beyond the prototype stage, you're in the right place.

    Invent With Me is hosted by Grant Martin, inventor of TorkStrap and founder of a multi-million-dollar product business. The show is dedicated to helping inventors make informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and build products that improve their lives and the lives of their families.

    What if the most important decision in your inventing career has nothing to do with patents, prototypes, or manufacturers?

    After years of building TorkStrap into a multi-million dollar product business and consulting hundreds of inventors, I've discovered that most inventors are asking the wrong questions.

    Before you worry about patents, manufacturing, Amazon FBA, Shopify stores, trade shows, retail buyers, or social media marketing, you need to answer one critical question:

    👉 What kind of inventor do you want to become?

    In this episode of Invent With Me, I break down the three paths I've observed among successful inventors:

    ✅ The Freedom Inventor – building a business to quit your day job
    ✅ The Growth Inventor – creating a business that improves your income and lifestyle
    ✅ The Wealth Inventor – building a scalable asset that creates long-term wealth

    We'll discuss product development, product validation, sourcing, manufacturing, Amazon FBA, Shopify, social media marketing, email marketing, trade shows, retail expansion, hiring employees, international sourcing, and the mindset shifts required at each stage.

    Whether you're a first-time inventor, product developer, entrepreneur, startup founder, or eCommerce business owner, this episode will help you build a roadmap that matches your goals.
