Join the JIN faithful March 22 to hear from two local inventors who are following through on their dreams. Each guest speaker will share their personal story from concept to market.
Story#1 – Fan Zone Furniture.
Bill Jewell decided to merge his love for college sports with his desire to start a business. Fan ZoneTM Furniture was born — a family owned company built upon old fashioned values. Bill’s business, located in Jackson, provides spirited high quality collegiate furniture at affordable prices, allowing every fan of collegiate sports to add some team spirit to their home décor or to properly furnish the man cave.
Story #2 – Set-N-Go Trapper.
Perry Watkins has been a trapper for 40 years. About 5 years ago Perry developed and began marketing the Set-n-Go TrapperTM … a stabilizer that holds body grip animal traps, resulting in a much higher success/catch ratio. Perry recently expanded out of the niche fur- trapping sector to enter the pest control market, by developing a Complete Groundhog Removal System. Perry’s latest kit is marketed locally for the DIY home owner and farmer.
