Dear Toxoid, 

In my opinion, you have to seek the reasons why these ideas are weak
"on paper" and on the patent level. These weaknesses probably reflect
some weaknesses in the project itself. If it is because you find it
difficult to express yourself in a written form, think of hiring a
professional proposal writer that would do it for you; If it is
because people express criticism on facets of the idea itself, which
you are sure that you could "explain to them if you just spoke to
them", try to improve those arguments in the text itself.

For what it's worth, my experience is that the ideas that look great
on paper usually don't work out; whilst those that are hard to justify
'on paper' but feel intuitively correct are usually successful.

In other words, if you truly believe in your project(s) then really go for them!

Good luck!

In addition to what others have said:

Many banks offer packages to people trying to start their own "small
businesses".  These often include:
A loan to get the business started
Advice on how to run a small business
Low interest rates on repayments
Names of reputable businesses that you will need (e.g. accountants).
A wealth of experience of problems other people have faced when they
thought their idea was a sure winner.
How to get customers

They are likely to insist that you have a convincing business plan but
with some persuasion will often spare an hour or so to meet you in
person.

Hope this helps,

Good luck.
