Swig
Nicole Tanner
If you’ve ever been to Utah, you have heard of Nicole’s business, Swig—the first of many drive-through customizable fountain drink vendors. With a menu full of different sodas, purees, and flavors, Swig launched with a boom. Utahns rolled in and out fast for their daily drink fix.
For Nicole, Swig has always been about customer service—friendly service and a superior product. Customers loved Swig’s single starting location for its business model as well as its focus on customer service, and after a year, Nicole had already begun expanding the business.
After opening a few more strategic locations, the business took off, and through partnering with a brand-building firm, Swig expanded to four times its size and is now pushing toward a national scale.
Salsa Queen
Maharba Zapata
Driven by a love of culture and family, Maharba devised the perfect business plan to bring in some extra cash: fresh salsa. With a business built on self-created recipes and help from her kids, Maharba started by selling her salsa on Marketplace and at farmers’ markets. After selling out all summer at the markets, she and her husband knew they needed to expand the business to continue pulling in cash during the offseasons.
Maharba pitched her products to some local stores that were excited to add her product to their shelves. With such a warm reception on the local level, Maharba was encouraged to go even bigger with the business. After signing contracts to sell in Smith’s Marketplaces and Associated Food, Maharba expanded her employee base exponentially to fulfill the needs of all her distributors.
Maharba’s Salsa Queen products are now being sold in over 100 stores across Utah and Idaho, and the business is still expanding to be a national brand!
The Eugene Backyard Farmer
Bill Bezuk
With 20 years in retail, Bill wanted to try something new. He saw a need in the community: urban farming, like raising chickens and gardening at home. Bill set to work filling that need with a business plan for an urban farm supply store.
Despite successfully filling a niche in the community, Bill’s business struggled to get the funds for a solid launch. But after receiving some publicity in a local newspaper and working to grow an online presence, the Eugene Backyard Farmer store really took off. His success is a testament to the effectiveness of numerous free and low-cost marketing avenues.
Business is now booming, with all the highs and lows of a vibrant business, and Bill couldn’t be happier.
Rhythm Engineering
Reggie Chandra
Do you hate getting a red light at every intersection on your commute? While working in Kansas City’s metro region, Reggie Chandra was working on a project optimizing traffic signals when he realized that the firmware in most traffic signals across the US was unacceptably outdated, leading to a major lack of synchronization—a failure that has led to scores of accidents.
With the goal of reducing automobile accidents, injuries, and fatalities, Reggie created a system of cameras and processors that would allow traffic engineers to utilize up-to-date technology to make commutes a smoother experience for everyone.
