Trevor Baylis Brands And Charity Work

Tell us about the Trevor Baylis Foundation?

Well that's why I started the Trevor Baylis brands, as it's now called, because I started it by way of the foundation, sort of a charity thing. And no one would listen to me and so I thought, "Well blow that, let's go for it." So I've got a fantastic team you see. Basically what it comes down to is this: that none of us have all the skills we need to bring a product to market. I was always a showoff, always a showman, I was never fazed by a television crew interviews. But ask me to do accounts; I couldn't think of anything more boring than doing tax returns. People do that for a living, each to their own. But you see sometimes the inventor could be, he or she, an accountant. They suddenly come up with a crazy, seemingly crazy, solution to a problem, some domestic problem in the house, which turns out to be right there where everybody else needs it.

How many inventors have you helped at Trevor Baylis Brands?

We've helped coming up to four thousand inventors now, a lot of people.
