ACID'S Safe Pitch Kit, in CD format with accompanying booklet, is an essential tool for any designer when responding to a pitch for creative ideas or when taking their product to market via buying departments, specificers etc. The pitching environment can be a hugely vulnerable place to show your designs without appropriate protection and a full understanding of your IP rights. The Safe Pitch Kit includes an advice booklet packed with common sense tips, guidence plus valuable information on what to do if pitches go wrong. There is also a glossery and explanation of legal terminology. The Safe Pitch CD includes three high value agreements - Licence/Royality Agreement, Intellectual Property Agreement and Confidentiality Agreement - all worth over £250.00 - simply downloaded and use over and over again to create a safer trading environment for you and your products. The kit also provides a highly visible logo for use on any documents or literature to emphasise your rights' ownership.



Dids Macdoanld, CEO of ACID nearly lost her business 15 years ago, beacuse she did not know how to best protect her designs. Dids took her georgeous hand painted finials and tassels into the buying department of a major high street retailer and was duly ripped off.



'I am passionate about design protection, having learn't the hard way. It has taken us over a year to develop the Safe Pitch Kit becauss I want to ensure all ACID members are fully equipped to take their products to market with the appropriate IP protection. Many of our members cannot afford the high cost of getting legal agreements drawn up which is why the Safe Pitch Kit represents such amazing value - an affordable one off cost for years of design protection!"
