Questions & Answer

I was asked the questions "why do I need your product"?
My answer: In a society that is based on efficiency it's the most efficient packing product for any form of traveling. With all the new airline restrictions and additional bag fees traveling lite has become a necessity. Also who wouldn't want to save space in the car on road trips. The unique rolling design includes: 3 mesh pockets with hook & loop closure, 2 clear vinyl zippered pockets and a canvas shell that rolls up into it's self with three straps that compress it down to save on space. The ability to pack a few days worth of clothes that take up a fraction of space in a bag or suitcase make it perfect for everyone! If you are trying to teach a child independence or an adult that is trying to edit and organize clothes or someone with physical limitations such as arthritis, this product takes the stress out of packing. Who doesn't want to stay organized when traveling? Being able to simply hang up the Roll & Go in any closet or lay on the floor anywhere eliminates the need to “move in”, or live with a messy bag when your staying somewhere for a few days. As a mother and wife I love being able to pack all 4 of us in one bag and have our stuff organized when I arrive at my destination. Our family traveling usually consist of driving across the state to family members houses for visits. My kids have became responsible for their own clothes and know each pocket represents a day when we are away. No more “Mom, where is my? What am I suppose to wear?” or that dreaded digging and messing up the neatly folded or rolled clothes in their bags. It also prevents that discussion of what top do I wear with these bottoms? I have a tendency to pick out all outfits for everyday of my trip in advance, it's the only way I prevent myself from packing the entire closet, lol. I took a girls trip this summer to Nashville this past summer and was able to pack 6 outfits, 2 pairs of shoes and toiletries in a carry on suitcase without using the extension.



 At the time I only had 2, 3 pocketed mock ups that our product designer had made. It was so wonderful to be able to just hang the Roll & Go in the closet while we were at the hotel. When it was time to leave I just rolled them back up and BOOM packing done. Saves on time and eliminates stress=)

First Blog

For years everyone has been telling to start blogging. Up till now I've just used Facebook as my platform to share....EVERYTHING! But since I'm trying to start my business, I want to be able to share with everyone. Tonight was a great example of what I want to share. When I was putting my 9 year old son to bed we had a long chat. He wanted to know why I was on the computer all day. I explained to him (a) I was having a slight flare (courtesy of Lupus) so I needed to be in bed all day and (b) trying to have a successful campaign on Indiegogo took lots of work. (Gotta love being able to kill two birds with one stone)I was explaining how I want the Roll & Go to help better everyone's lives not just ours. I reminded him of why I believe in this so much. I want to not only have a product that helps make peoples lives easier but provides enough profit to share with others. He knows how much giving back means to me, it's the core of who I am. I remember when I was a kid and volunteering at homeless shelters. Something about those experiences has always held a special place in my heart. I also want to spread Lupus Awareness. Our lives have been drastically changed since my diagnosis. I know how difficult it's been for me but sometimes I forget it's difficult on my husband and kids too. He almost made me cry tonight when he said, "Well maybe one day you'll have enough money to donate to find a cure for Lupus". I'm really hoping one day he's right.
