Have you ever had an idea that you thought would make an amazing product... and had NO CLUE how to bring it to life?

Want to learn from someone who went from Product to Profit? They were even featured on QVC several times!

When I first met Dane Short, I flipped out because of a product that I was in love with. (See the product at www.stand4joy.zymbol.net)

What I didn't know was the amazing journey he had been on to bring the product to the market.

It started with a Doodle that his mother, Sally Short, drew by stacking the letters Love is All You Need and a Peace Sign. They soon created a product around this doodle, which became known as a Zymbol by Meridane Design, and led to being featured multiple times on QVC! AMAZING!

Join us to learn the journey from a doodle to an order of 500 pieces, to 5000 pieces, to 13,000 pieces. And those orders happened multiple times!

Wether you want to sell a physical product, a digital product, or a service... this story will bring you insights that push your business forward!

Dane Short started his first business days after graduating from UNLV with a degree in marketing. Dane took a random doodle that his Mother Sally created and developed a line of inspirational jewelry that went on to become a best-selling item on QVC The ‘doodle’, better known as ZYMBOL, contains every letter of the alphabet and every number hidden within it.

Dane works closely with his family as they’ve expanded from their beginnings in Durango, CO to an up and coming nationwide commodity. Zymbol has been featured in media outlets such as The Huffington Post, PEOPLE, FOX, NBC & CBS. Over the past 4 years, Dane has appeared live on QVC over a dozen times.

Inspired by social entrepreneurs like Blake Mycoskie of TOMS, Dane developed a BUY + GIVE Program where he and his family gift Zymbol pendants to a different Children’s Hospital every quarter.

Zymbol recently switched to a Direct Sales business model that allows like-minded entrepreneurs to start their own Zymbol business by signing up as a ZYMBOLOGIST. --> www.stand4joy.zymbol.net
