S13 E4 From Secret to Success. Safeguarding Your Inspiration from Theft and Misuse with Wayne...
KFC Secret Recipe. Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) found a way to protect their secret recipe so that no one person has the whole recipe. They have three different vendors for the recipe. One prepares one part of the recipe, a second prepares a second part of the recipe, and a third vendor mixes the first and second parts.
Know how to protect a trade secret, because inspired ideas (your business's valuable intellectual property) start as a secret.
Intellectual property starts as ideas and thoughts, and are secret until they are shared. An invention is secret until it is published or sold. A new brand is secret until it is launched. Customer list (with the expiration date of all of your contracts), supplier list with negotiated prices, secret recipe/process, marketing plan (details of where you find your dream clients and who they are), business plan, new look for a redesigned product, and how to train highly skilled employees are all valuable assets that can be kept secret as a competitive advantage for a business.
Review who has access to your secrets, and consider if they have a contract that obligates them to keep it secret and not use it. Write down what is reasonable security for your business secrets, and review your security to see if it is enough.
Take 5 minutes to write down who you have shared your secrets with. Include your mother and your spouse if you have told them.
