Hi, I’m Lynn Rose, editor of this blog and coach/mentor to independent business owners, entrepreneurs and those who dream of making the world a better place through their products.

A BUSINESS MISSION BORN OF A PERSONAL TRAGEDY

My UV Protective Products business was born from losing my husband to melanoma. Out of a personal tragedy came a business mission to manufacture UV protective hats and umbrellas, protect the skin from damaging rays, enhance beauty and prevent aging.

Out of a business mission came the desire to help others navigate the challenges I faced throughout the manufacturing, marketing and product distribution process. I now coach and mentor budding entrepreneurs so their products can improve the lives of others too!

HOW I HELP OTHERS NAVIGATE “REAL LIFE” PRODUCT MANUFACTURING CHALLENGES

I knew nothing about the product manufacturing process when I started my business. Through many years of tests and trials, my knowledge grew and now I help others move up the learning curve much, much quicker. Here is just a partial list of some of the lessons learned:

  • the in’s and out’s of importing  from China
  • the costs, time and challenges of dyeing fabric to your specifications
  • the costs, time and challenges of inaccurate estimates and manufacturing delays
  • why you need a Storyboard
  • when to ask for help and how to get it
  • what you should know about graphic designers
  • how to deal with customs and holding charges
  • how to get good PR
  • how to get your products into hotel gift shops, spas, etc.
  • where to put your logo
  • and much, much more!

NO REASON TO LEARN THE HARD WAY

There’s no reason why you should have to learn anything the hard way when there are people like me who have already faced the challenges, found the flaws and overcome the obstacles. I’ve had my products custom-manufactured here in the US and mass produced overseas. I’ve marketed them online, through high-end gift shops, exclusive spas and main-street outlets.  My products have been featured by prominent news outlets and worn by Hollywood actors.

Yes, there are books you can read and business counselors you can seek for advice on many of these issues. And I’m happy to supplement those resources with real-life, hands-on, practical experience to help you climb the learning curve faster and with greater confidence.

Please call me at 1-888-296-7673 and let’s discuss your product, your dreams and your business goals!

With warm regards,

Lynn Rose
