Speaker 1 (00:09):
Oh, there she is.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Hi Kim, Hi, how are you, Samantha.

Speaker 1 (00:13):
I'm doing great.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
Thank you so much for joining us today on episode
six of our Spotlight Interviews.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
So welcome to again episode six.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Inventor Spotlight from our Inventor Smart Community. Kim, you have
been a member with the Inventor Smart Community and the
National Inventor Club for quite some time now, and we'll
get into a little bit more about that, but we
definitely want to welcome you. I'm so impressed with your product.
And I do have to tell you that the serendipity
sometimes of how something can happen a conversation that you

(00:50):
have many years ago and then it comes in to
this moment. And so I was with a friend of
mine and I'm going back probably fifteen years and he
sweares that he was he invented a product very very
much like yours, right in his mind right, and then

(01:10):
he saw it on the market years later, when I
think you blew up and you had a lot going on.

Speaker 4 (01:15):
And he was telling me about it, and I go,
and I had.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Just gotten into inventing, and I said to him, I go,
you know, this is why invendors have to move on
their product if you have an.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Idea, you have to act upon it.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
So I'm really proud of you, and I'm really impressed
with you moving forward. You put your product together, and
so I'm not going to be quiet and let you
tell us all about it. Welcome him, Thank you so much,
thanks for having me.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Yeah, it has been a super duper fun journey, and
it was just a brain tail. I actually invented clicking carry.
And by the way, this is clicking carry. It's a
simple handle device that helped shoppers to manage and carry
multiple bags out once comfortably, either in the hands or
over the shoulder. And I'll quickly show you how it works,
just to give it quick visual. But you twist it

(02:02):
open and you load handle bags onto each side, and
it's any bed with the handle, plastic paper, canvas, your purse.
Then once you get all the bags in, and the
key is to evenly distribute the weight, you twist the
top back into place, and you could either carry it
in your hand because there's comfy gel, or better.

Speaker 1 (02:21):
You could wear your.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Groceries and your hands free. And the interesting part is
I invented it for groceries, but people use it for
so many other reasons. For example, it's used as a
ski bootu or for dry cleaning paint cans and construction pails.
You walk multiple dogs at once, and then once you
get home you could Actually I don't have my phone ready,

(02:43):
but I'll pop it out right now so I could
show you once you get it home. It's actually a
stand for your phone or your iPad.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
You just do this.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
You twist it open and you can put your phone
in there, so you could use it all the way
around the house. And I have some fun new uses
coming and a couple of fun new inventions. But the
reason I invented it is similar to your friend. I
just couldn't stand bringing in the groceries. I lived in
a condo in Los Angeles, and in the past I

(03:13):
would just have my boyfriend come and grab all the groceries.
But when we broke up, I had to carry my
own groceries, so had a better way. I stopped grocery
shopping altogether, so I had to change that, and clicking
carry came into being. In fact, this is what the
current packaging looks like. But the original clicking carry was
just the bottom section and it worked perfectly because I

(03:34):
had the curvature for the shoulder, but the problem is
when you set it down down the bags would pop out.
So my next iteration was with a magnet, but I
knew people would lose one of two pieces. So nine
iterations later, I found a winner, and then I filed
for two utility patents. The first one took about three years,
the second one about eighteen months. It's the patent. Try

(03:57):
Bark office is a little faster now, but that's been
the journey. And we're also selling bundled sets with the
clicking carrier and reusable bags, and the new invention should
be coming i'd say by quarter four.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
That's incredible.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
What a great growth you've just described from your original thought.
You know, I'm tired of caring groceries. Me my boyfriend
broke up. What am I gonna do? Right, which I
think that's just adorable, that's just funny, right, Yeah, it
is so. And I think every shopper of groceries, because
I think initially you just said groceries, right. I mean,

(04:33):
I can't tell you as a mom growing up with
my son and how many grocery bags we would carry
in or he'd come out and I'm watching him struggle
and Carrie, So I think you know the fact that
you thought of it and pushed through and designed it
after many variations. Obviously, what is your background. So at

(04:54):
the time I.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Was working for Medtronic. It's a medical device company. I
always worked in a real I started in pharmaceuticals and
then went into medical device sales. So I was working
in deep brain stimulation. It's a completely different industry. But
I had some spare time and this was my brainchild.
And actually one of my neurologists looked at me one

(05:16):
day after me telling her all about it and drawing
pictures of it for her, she said, will you step
shut up and stop talking about it and do something
about it? So I did, and it's amazing how many
useful resources there are in the community. I actually hired
her neighbor, who at the time was studying product design
at Capacitated Design School. She had access to a three

(05:40):
D CAD printer, so I hired Audrey and to help
me with the with the three D CAD print and
you know, creating the model and and then it was
born there. So that's when the nine iterations came into play.
And once I had a winner, I made a mold
I knew that I had to find out if it
was actually a working design, and unfortunately it wasn't, so

(06:04):
we had to re engineer that. And then when I
did find the winner, that's when I filed for my
first patent.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
I love this because you're touched on a couple of
things here. Right you're telling somebody at work and they're like,
look enough, already, just do something with it. And just
so ironically, and what a coincidence, she happens to know
someone who can serve a need that you need right there.
So I love this because I'm like, pay attention to

(06:30):
what's around you, take risks, tell somebody, talk about it.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
Right, I'll take that small baby step forward.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
And I like to call it just bridges of incidences.
So right where then you're connected with somebody, and then
you've also just reminded us again to every invention inventor
out there, the long jevity it takes to go through
concept to design, to prototypes to modify to do it again.

(07:01):
I mean, this is this is a slow and steady crawl.
So tell me what happened when you finally got your products?
This is the one what are we doing?

Speaker 2 (07:13):
It was? It was so exciting. So, like I said,
the first mole didn't work, and again it was just
a coincidence that a neighbor across the hall worked for
the Thaie Company. They make beanie babies and plush toys.
So he hooked me up with his factory and that's
how I was able to make that mold and quickly
to go back. You talked about how we're lucky that

(07:36):
someone knows someone well.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
Jennifer.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
Doctor Jennifer Huey was at USC and she's one who
introduced me to Audrey and my surgeon at USC, Mark Laker.
He's amazing. He's also an aerospace engineer, so he also
helped me with the design and thinking things out. So
all of my friends were a big help along the way.
It's amazing, which is it's pretty it's it's pretty cool.

(08:01):
Oh my gosh, I just lost my train of thought.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
That's okay, that's okay, So more time, no, So you
were getting you finally got your final version that you
everybody was happy with, and then what progressed after that?

Speaker 2 (08:14):
So that's when it all began. It was not an
easy slug. I started going to local grocery stores and
the farmers market the Pasadena Rose Bowl. They have a
swap meet once a month, so I would sell just
a little places and get a bunch of feedback and
decide what to do. Because I was working full time.
This was just a side gig about three years ago,

(08:37):
so it's always been something on the side, but I
was just trying to devise ways to get ahead. And
what ended up working for me was actually attending a
trade show. It was a very expensive trade show and
it was kind of one last ditch effort here, and
it was the Home and Houseware Show in Chicago, I

(08:59):
believe it's called the Home Show now, and they had
a section called Inventor's Corner, and by being an attendee
and inventors Corner, you were allowed to pitch to a
panel of judges from different companies and TVC really liked
my product, but they didn't.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
Let me know.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
And what happened is at the time Bethany Frankel, the
girl who does Skinny Girl Margarita's, and she's quite the
entrepreneur and a former housewife and guest shark.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
I love her.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Yeah, she's pretty great. So it was the end of
her show and they did a segment once a week
called Bethany in Your Business, so they asked me to
be on her show, and I was thrilled because I
thought I was going to get maybe a five or
ten thousand dollars stipend for my business and some business
advice from Bethany, and instead I ended up getting a
contract with QVC. So that was pretty exciting, and I

(09:53):
ended up going on QBC about a month later.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Amazing. What was that like?

Speaker 3 (09:58):
I mean, how do you walk into that studio as
a previously, as a as a consumer. We're all familiar
with qvc' not a lifetime inventor to come up with
this really cool product. And I'm not diminishing that you
didn't put any time effort, blood, sweat, tears, boots on
the ground. I mean really even mentioned, you know, this

(10:19):
trade show, this last ditch effort. I think we've been
there as inventors and all of a sudden, I mean,
the payoff of this big break. But did it feel
like going into that studio, I'd be so exciting.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
It was, And I actually filmed with David Vennable, so
he's basically the big star on QBC, so it was
a little bit intimidating, but he's such a nat sky.
I remember him calling me sweet pea. As a matter
of fact, he was just a doll. He made it
easy and I was always in sales, so I was

(10:52):
always renting, so that wasn't a big stretch. But being
in front of the camera in front of millions of people,
that's a little bit scary and intimidating. But otherwise it
was pretty exciting. And I had a great group of
people with me, so I had there are two people
in particular, my one sister and my one friend JJ.
She and my sister would always come with me to

(11:13):
QVC because you have to bring in all your stuff
and set it up and make your table look beautiful.
So I had amazing help, and I had them there
to calm me down and to talk sense into me.

Speaker 4 (11:24):
And you know, listen, I'm just thrilled for you.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
I mean, I think that's just an incredible accomplishment and
it takes a lot of work ethic to get there,
and I think we all know that it does, especially
behind the scenes. It is not overnight success, right, It
is a lot in between. So how many times did
you appear on QVC? And I'm sure everybody's contract is different,

(11:49):
but I was just.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
Curious thirteen times. I was honest for you thirteen times
about five years.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
And obviously there was a uptick in sales and you
could see it.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
So how was that experience?

Speaker 2 (12:05):
It was really exciting. It was a little bit scary too,
because I didn't expect it to sell that well and
I didn't have enough inventory. So we were on in
May and I wasn't able to deliver the product until
August because they were basically pre orders. So unfortunately for me,

(12:26):
by the time August rolled around, maybe some people had
forgotten about it, but it ended up being fine. But
it was successful, so they reordered. And at the time,
I had just purchased my condo in Los Angeles, so
I didn't really have money for the inventory, and I
made a fatal mistake and I used my four oh
one K to pay for the inventory because it was

(12:49):
a chance in a lifetime. So I ended up about
a year and a half later getting a huge tax penalty.
But sometimes you have to strike while the iron is hot.
Sometimes as an entrepreneur, you have to go with the risk.
And it was a risk, but I mean I sold
them all. It's just the penalty really wasn't great, and
to be out of all that money on my four

(13:10):
one k is a little bit scary. But on a
break note, luckily I bought my condo at the right time,
and it's doom well good. You know.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
Again, you're touching on so many things because there are
risks too, and not only have you invented this really.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Cool product, but you've built a business.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
So with any business or with any product development, there's
going to be risks. So I know that you have
appeared on you know, I'm just going to say you
were on Shark Takes, So that just gives me just
so much excitement again because I just think you're nailing it,
you know, one after another.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
So what did that come about? Was that season twelve?

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Right? It was season twelve episode, but I actually shot
in season eleven. It's so interesting because when I was filming,
I was bumped and filmed a little bit later because
one of the groups had a child in their segment,
so my space was bumped. And it's so interesting because

(14:10):
that I was next and when I filmed, not both.
When I filmed, our episode didn't make it to air.
But what happened is because of COVID, our archived episode
made it out and onto season twelve, and all of
the people who followed me that evening also made it

(14:30):
to air. So if you see season twelve, episode eight,
you'll notice that we're not social distancing and we're all
the people who came later that night, So it's interesting.
So a lot of times it's just the luck of
the draw and when it shot, I'm guessing that's the
reason why it didn't air. But for me, it was
a blessing in disguise because again, I didn't necessarily have

(14:52):
enough inventory because when I sold the night I did air,
which was December eleventh, twenty twenty, I saw, well, gosh,
probably over twenty thousand units. So luckily I had inventory
because I had a year and a half to purchase
the additional inventory. It was a huge success and I
ended up selling a ton over that weekend. And it's

(15:14):
kind of the gift that keeps on giving because I'm
on MSNBC constantly for reruns and every time it's on,
I'll get a bump. And it's been a real blessing too,
because when you're on a show like that, you have
this just a different level of credibility, so it helps
me to sell into retail. And also I inherited this

(15:35):
whole group of other Shark Tank entrepreneurs, so we share
best practices, and there are a couple of us that
meet a couple of times throughout the year. In fact,
we usually meet weekly, sometimes bi weekly. And let's say
I have a problem, chances are someone else in the
group has experienced it and they're able to help me
out and vice versus. So it's been a real, a

(15:56):
real wonderful thing to be on Shark Tank. It's been
a real blessing.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
This is amazing because you're also kind of giving us
a great segue into the importance of community, right you're
just now speaking of these other Shark Tank contestants and
you've built this friendship and community and you're able to
support one another, which is really you know when we
talk about the National Inventor Club or the Inventor Smart

(16:20):
Community app, that's part of our mission as well. You
know our founder Brian, who I know you've spoken to
and you've met and you guys have become really good
friends and he's helped you along.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
The way with advice.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
And so how's it been for you to join the
Inventor Smart community, or being part of the National Inventor
Club and meeting all all of us other inventors at
all different stages of development. And really we're really happy
to have you because you've had such great success with
your product and you've done a lot of things that
we haven't reached yet or some of us have, some

(16:58):
of us haven't, and you you offer great insight and
great mentorships.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Tell us about that. What do you think about the
Inventor Club.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
I think it's a great club, and I love working
with Brian. I learned so much through and through the community.
It's really incredible. I love that you give us so
much insight into different speakers and even competitions. I love
watching competitions. My favorite episode was when you had Kathy Vidal,

(17:30):
the director of the Patent and Trademark Office, on I
thought that was a phenomenal lecture, and I had met
her a couple of months earlier. She did this event
with Amazon where they interviewed three female entrepreneurs and she's
obviously a female director of the Patent and Trademark Office, which.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
Is pretty incredible.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Has electrical engineering degrees and she's also a patent attorney.
She's just amazing. But I just think themmunity is great.
I loved that I was able to interact with her
that night. I'm glad that Brian helps us out. And
it's so funny because I'm actually working with Brian again
on a project. Sadly because of the advent of places

(18:15):
like Timu and Ali Baba, which is like the wild West,
and they think nothing of honoring your IP and I've
recently had a knockoff. It's a terrible version, but I'm
working to try to get it taken down through Ali
Baba and through Timu. I'm working with American attorneys Chinese

(18:41):
attorneys because I have a trademark over there. Anyway, we
asked Brian if they'd be willing to talk to Ali
Baba because we told them some of the problems with
their system on how to get on knockoff taken down.
So we're trying to streamline it with them. So we
as Brian ife would help as well because he has
this amazing community and I'm sure other people within your

(19:03):
community have also been knocked off. So we now have
a direct line to the executives at Ali Baba and
hopefully Chase and I he's my director. I'm sor my
VP of marketing. Hopefully Chase and I, along with Brian
and some others from Shark Tank, can help to streamline
the process and make it easy for others when they're

(19:25):
being infringed upon. So for example, they're even stealing my image,
they're stealing my picture, my videos. It's just it's despicable.
So we're trying to prevent that and help not only
other Shark Tank people, but all inventors because we paid
a lot of money and invested a lot of time,
sweat and tears into our patents and trademarks and copyrights,
so that needs to be protected. Otherwise there's not going

(19:47):
to be incentive for people to apply for IP protection.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
Right now, you're bringing up some excellent points, and I
know that in the National Mentor Club meetings that Brian
is bringing in all these and all these legal experts,
and a lot of this discussion is happening more and.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
More and more.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
And you're a real life inventor that's bringing your story
to us as well. Because we don't want people to
be fearful right and go, well, it's just going to
get ripped off, it's going to get stolen.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
I can't protect it.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
So it's important to know that there are things happening
behind the scenes, and there are very smart people that
are collaborating to make sure these other companies are following
the rules and the laws that abide and it is protecting.
And I think the USPTO is also doing so much
more work behind the scenes as well, working with independent

(20:40):
inventors to make sure that these incidences don't happen. So
perhaps we'll have you on at the Inventor's Smart Community
or in the National Inventor Club and then you could
share more of this experience, because you're really giving us
a lot this afternoon because you've done so much with
your product. I'm just blown away. Tom, I'm so proud

(21:03):
of you. It's amazing.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
I appreciate that. I wish I didn't have to worry
about this new situation, but it's going to help a
lot of people. And it's funny that you would say
that the Patent and Trademark Office has done so much.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
It's true.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Kathy put me in touch with two attorneys there who
put me in touch with another twelve people there who
put us in touch with Ali Baba and Timu and
the FBI and even.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
The White House.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
We've actually spoken to the White House to protect ourselves
and in the future as soon as we're done. We've
already we've already drafted a letter for all of the
inventors who have experienced a similar thing to notify their
senators or congressmen. And we're going to have a list
of speaking points as well. But the letter's already drafted,
and we just need to get together our speaking points.

(21:49):
So I'll be sure to make sure I relay that
information and provide it to everyone within our community here
so that they can also try to help to get
legislation done to prevent this. Maybe maybe it could be
something where Ali Baba and Timo are not allowed to
sell into the United States or something along those lines,
or or or that they have to really implement a

(22:14):
program where they make sure that they protect and honor
our IP protection. So hopefully we'll do some good work.
Hopefully we'll get this accomplished soon.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
I love it say you're showing so much passion and
as an independent inventor, you know, thank you for leading
the cause and being an activist and a spoke person
for speaking out and up for for people like me
and for a lot of us in our community, So
you are our spotlight for episode six.

Speaker 1 (22:43):
I'm just really thrilled about it.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
And if everybody out there wants to learn more about
inventing or what it's like to be involved with the community,
hear more about Kim. You know, definitely go to inventorsmart
dot com. You can go download the app at all
your places where you download your from Google or Apple Play.
So where can we find your product?

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Now?

Speaker 3 (23:04):
I know you're in Amazon, Walmart, and I'm on your
website obviously.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
Clickingcarriy dot com. We're in Loews dot com and Kruger
dot com. And then our newest accounts are going to
be Albertson's Safeway. We're just onboarding, so by the end
of September, we'll be in Albertson Safeways. It's just a test,
but it's a great opportunity. We're going to be in
areas US which are in all of the big airports
and rail railway stations. And then I just had a

(23:35):
really interesting meeting with truck supply Company on Thursday and
they're thinking about a test as well, So I'm sending
them samples today and I'm hoping to get into Low's
and Home Depot and actually Kroger for their delivery people.
So I'm getting around there. I'm starting to infiltrate the

(23:55):
retail space. Oh in Meyer Meyer Is, It's already in myyer.
So that's a grocery store in the midwest of grocery chain.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
That's incredible.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
So obviously, now you have a distribution, you start with
having them in your living room and box up and
mail yourself.

Speaker 4 (24:09):
Yes, did you start by having them in your living
room and mailing.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Them out yourself?

Speaker 2 (24:14):
I did.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
In fact, I loved this.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
I'll send you I'll send you all the links to
my social media and I'll send you some pictures. There's
one in particular that is really funny, and it was
right after I was on Shark Tank. QBC wanted to
do a special so I had enough inventory, but I
didn't have the proper packaging. So I flew my nephew
out and asked all of my friends to help me.

(24:39):
I had five thousand boxes in my living room. We
took three clicking carriers off their normal packaging and put
them in these QBC boxes, five thousand of them. It
took us about two weeks, but we did get it done.
So I'll send you that picture because it's pretty funny
and it shows you the kind of things that entrepreneurs
do on the back end because they don't want to
let people down.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
I remember packaging my product yellow Dug Table, and had
my sister fly in to Florida and we set up
these two six foot long tables and yeah, we had
I had to use a drimmal to cut an extra.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Hole on a done product.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
And I remember we're in this like it's her and
I this little symboly line. I'm like, and I'd handed
to her and we'd look at each other.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
I'm like, God, this is behind the scenes.

Speaker 3 (25:24):
And we did a thousand units, so I can relate
to that type of grit that it takes. And you
look back on the photos, right, and you go, wow,
I can't believe that's where were there, And in that
moment you are creating something that that in three, four,
five years.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
From now you'll look back on.

Speaker 3 (25:46):
Right.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
So I think that's really good stuff.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
So let me wrap it up with let me ask
you this, Kim, what advice do you give young inventors
people just starting out out or but you know if
you're if you've got a product and you're working on
it and you're three four years in and you're kind
of like, oh, I don't know, I don't know, you know.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
Talk to that person, what do you think?

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Sure? So what I would say is, don't listen to
the naysayers. If you know you have a winner, just.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Go for it.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
If you believe in it, go for it. Obviously, listen
to their feedback. If they offer some great suggestions on
how to make a change to make it a better product,
listen to that, implement it. But what I would say
is that there's so many amazing resources out there that
are free for you to utilize to help you in
your process. Number one would be the SBA or SBDCs.

(26:39):
Number two Score and Score is amazing because it's usually
retired CEOs or accountants, or patent attorneys or accounting attorneys,
an all kinds of attorneys who can help you and
guide you along in the process, or at least refer
you to someone who you know can help you to

(26:59):
get where you want to be, but maybe inexpensively. Number
three go to different colleges. A lot of times there
are business programs. Sometimes they would use you as a
part of the curriculum for the semester. For example, at
Emerson this past semester, I had a senior class who

(27:19):
did a PR project with clicking carry in mind. So
I ended up getting so much great information from these
five brilliant girls. Let's see what else. Oh, from the
Patent and Trademark Office. There sbdc's is that right, Yeah, No,
Patent and Trademark Resource Center so.

Speaker 6 (27:39):
Pt RPTRS yeah PTRC, yes, So Patent Trademark Resource Centers
there's at least two in every state, and it's manned
by these brilliant and educated librarians who know pretty much
everything about the patent process.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
And what they don't know. They could refer you to
local patent attorneys or for example, if you're doing research
to see if your patent's already out there, instead of
hiring an attorney whting, you hire a law student and
they put you in touch with people like that. They'll
help you to search to see if your products out
there themselves, because they're brilliant and they just there are

(28:14):
a lot of great resources out there that you could utilize.
You don't have to spend a ton of money because
the resources are out there for you.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
That is such really great solid advice. It really is
SBCD score.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
These are these programs are free for the taking.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
Colleges and universities they need, especially the even high schools,
they need some of that real life experience to do
the drawings or the cabs right connected to your resources
and most importantly, find a good inventor club through your
social media. Okay, we brag about our club, the National

(28:54):
Inventor Club and of course the Invenor Smart Community. But
that was the reason Brian Freed built this app and
build this community for us all to connect and use
resources together that you know, listen, this is twenty twenty four.
There's information out there so everywhere, and there's resources available.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
And yes, USPTO.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
Office people think it's unattainable and unreachable and they have,
you know, just use the dropdowns. There's so many resources
and sources available from them as well. So, Kim, you've
been amazing today. I love your story. It's success, right,
it's product success, and that's what we're all about. And

our product or coming up with the new idea. And
I know in this episode six Aerrs. You're gonna inspire us,

being here and sharing your story. And I know that

(29:56):
we're going to interview more together because there's more stuff.
And thanks for being an advocate and a spokesperson for
that legal stuff behind the scenes that not everybody can face.

Speaker 2 (30:08):
Thank you, Thank you, Samantha. It's been a pleasure and
I really appreciate this fun conversation and I'm really honored
that you selected me for episode six. So thank you.
