These Dad's Saw A Need And Acted On It. Can anybody relate to this pain?

[Gitrokr]

I came across this news article and thought it was fitting to share with the group here.

I think it's a classic case of seeing a need and coming up with a solution to solve the problem.

While the interview doesn't get into the nitty gritty of the process,
we can guess that it was there and still is.

Here's the link to the article:

Some quotes that stood out to me that relate to general entrepreneurship and the fastlane philosophy were:

• "there was nothing on the market to help this problem"
• "One thing we’ve learned, and are still experiencing to this day, is that everything takes a lot longer than you expect in every facet of the company. It’s just as much about the journey as it is the destination."
• "it’s going to take some major work to get your product to the masses and just letting the public know your product exists."
• "I think the biggest challenge for our company is marketing a product that’s never existed and figuring out how to get our product known the public."
• "I think it’s just a willingness to work hard and know that not everyone will get this kind of opportunity to invent something and actually get it to market."
• "Make sure there is a want and need for your product or service and that it’s worth the money you’re about to spend because it’s not cheap."
