Innovation Direct™ Tabbed to Represent Pool Buddies Invention to Potential Licensees

South Miami, FL, November 25, 2014 --(PR.com)-- An innovative and eye catching new product designed to greatly enhance the swimming pool experience, the Pool Buddies, has been developed by Steven D. James of Collinsville, Illinois. The invention’s unique design provides an above ground pool with a host of different benefits.

The Pool Buddies offers a constant source of cool and refreshing water to those within the pool. The product is sufficiently diverse in functionality so as to serve as a planter as well. Additionally, the Pool Buddies is capable of providing additional lighting for the pool itself. Furthermore, it is easily installable by virtually anyone, taking only minutes. Moreover, its proprietary features enable it to lend an overall calming, soothing, and relaxing atmosphere in a pool area. It will also be competitively priced and made from durable materials, adding to its appeal.

The inventor of the Pool Buddies has developed a working prototype that has been utilized with success. The Pool Buddies is also in Patent Pending status within the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Mr. James now seeks a third party licensee to manufacture, market, and distribute the product for him under a royalty agreement. Potential licensees in the swimming pool accessories industry are currently being targeted as candidates to eventually commercialize the Pool Buddies on a worldwide basis.

In August 2014, Mr. James contracted Miami, Florida-based product management services leader Innovation Direct™ to represent the Pool Buddies to potential licensees for a 2 year period. Innovation Direct™ obtains the maximum amount of exposure for the products that it represents through its unique and patented licensing methodology and its participation in multiple and diverse industry-leading trade shows each year.
