The purpose to patent a product is for legal protection against the infringement of your product and its idea. This is what a patent is, legal protection against any domestic and foreign company from importing and selling your product for a profit without your consent.
Most patent applications are rejected on their first submission. Although it is known that patent officers prefer to discuss the finer points of an application with an approved patent attorney because an attorney understands the process better and is easier to deal with than inventors, even the ones who hired a USPTO-approved attorney to get it approved also get rejected. This is just the US government bureaucracy at work.
Hiring an attorney for any reason is very expensive. If your idea is a sure money maker, then before you file the patent, make a business plan with your product as the center and sell shares or get investors. This will help raise the capital needed to push through the patent.
Once you have filed your patent, keeping the details of your product a secret should still be done. It is true the patent is on file and the term patent pending is applicable, but you are not totally protected yet. The patent approval process could take up to 2 years to complete, so basically keep your mouth shut about it.
If there is not a need to let someone know the details about your product, then do not share it. This is all a part of a good business plan. Keep your secrets, secret. It is a good idea to patent a product that will provide you and your family with a revenue stream for the next 17 years.
