Episode 5: Welcome to Firefighterstraps.com!

Today my friend and coworker Luke Peterson steps up to the mic for a second appearance. We discuss how he identified a need for versatile hose and tool straps and his path to becoming a business owner.

Luke is a 24-year fire service veteran and currently holds the rank of Lieutenant. As a long-time sports participant and enthusiast, he uses his love for fitness to lead his department’s wellness program where he’s been the coordinator for 15 years.

Luke recently started a business creating and selling firefighter straps that help provide efficiency and safety to the job. He now offers over 20 straps that can be found at www.firefighterstraps.com.

In this episode, Luke walks us through how creating a solution for himself led to creating a full-on business with 2 partners. He discusses his hesitancy in getting into entrepreneurship and the fact that it would be super handy if he could clone himself in order to get everything done.

So what, now what??

Identifying a need and creating a product is a daunting task. But if you have an idea, it’s worth exploring! Especially if you have others that can invest and support your business.
