Today's guest is a visionary, public speaker, inclusive technologist, and Fashion and Industrial Designer that helped the first blind person to complete the NYC marathon without assistance. Keith Kirkland is the CoFounder of WearWorks, which invented a navigation system that removes the need for sight and sound. Kieth shared his incredible journey that led to the start of WearWorks, how his team in navigating the eCommerce world, and how you can use Amazon to test your ad spend.Takeaways:Even though you may have a specific audience in mind when designing your product, don't design your product so that only that specific audience can use it. Think about the other applications and don't add friction for them to buy your product.If you're creating a product that performs a function and is also meant to be worn, you need to make sure that it looks fashionable and that the form is not completely sacrificed for the function.If you are already selling on your website, try A/B testing it against Amazon and using the results of that test to determine where you should spend your ad dollars.When you are dealing with a revolutionary idea, don't just try and use it in the most obvious application, think about where it could go beyond that most obvious stepping stone and work to get there first. Amazon Launchpad is a special program from Amazon where you sell wholesale to Amazon and Amazon helps market the product for you. Through Launchpad, Amazon offers much better wholesale margins than those available from traditional distributors.The Launchpad program is very selective and your company must either be invited to join by Amazon or make it through the long application process.Quote of the Show:“Touch is the future of digital communications” - Keith Kirkland Links:LinkedInTwitterCompany InstagramCompany websiteWayband on the App StoreShout Outs:David Clark - Amazon Legends Episode # 119Ways to Tune In:Apple Podcast (Leave a Review)iHeart RadioPodchaser (Leave a Review)Amazon MusicAudibleSpotifyGoogle PodcastStitcherYouTubeAmazon Legends is sponsored by Argometrix, the authority on, and leading supplier of, competitive intelligence for online retail.

WearWorks builds products and experiences that communicate information through touch. Their first product, Wayband, is a wristband that gently navigates users to a destination using vibration, without the need for any visual or audio cues. And in 2017, it helped the first person who is blind to run the NYC marathon without sighted assistance. https://www.wear.works/Preorder your Wayband, today!https://www.wear.works/preorder#haptic #wristband #design #visuallyimpaired #vibration #navigates #touch #blind #startup #strategy #entrepreneurs #smallbusiness #businessstrategy #podcast #covid19 #socialdistancing #innovators #mindingyourbusiness #thankyou Follow WearWorksIG: https://www.instagram.com/wear.works/Twitter: https://twitter.com/wearworksincFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/haptictechnology/IG: https://www.instagram.com/keithiuskamilli/Twitter: https://twitter.com/keithninLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/klkirkland/Support the show (https://www.lcgbrands.com/advertisewithmybpodcast)
With so much innovation in the world right now, what is the new frontier for technology? According to WearWorks co-founders Keith Kirkland and Kevin Yoo, that new frontier is the sense of touch. WearWorks is a startup that's focused on communicating using the sense of touch. The company's first product Wayband is a navigation tool that uses only the sense of touch and is geared toward blind and vision-impaired individuals. Keith and Kevin recently joined startup coach Roland Siebelink on the Midstage Startup Momentum Podcast to discuss how they arrived at this new frontier and how they've managed to navigate it to this point. The importance of understanding what the market or your target customer is missing. Recognizing that teams grow and develop ideas, not individuals. Why you don't always have to agree with your co-founders but you should respect them. How to recognize when something might be bad in the short-term but good in the long run. Why it's important for startups to have an extended family outside of their employees. The concept of co-founders constantly merging their perspectives together.
Wayband is a brand new navigation device that connects via Bluetooth with a smartphone and uses proprietary technology to communicate information through touch. Stuart sits down with Keith Kirkland co-founder of WearWorks to find out all about it.

This week's guests Keith Kirkland, and Kevin Yoo, are co-founders of Wearable tech start up Wear Works.In part one we covered the challenges they both overcame growing up and their journey to entrepreneurship. In part two we discuss the evolution of Wear Works. Keith explains how his interests in design, movement, and technology led him to a realization that he could use technology to teach movement. As a Matrix lover he asked himself the question, ‘can I create a suit that teaches me Kung Fu'. To answer this question he and Kevin set out to create a new language based on touch. Called Haptic technology, their first experiment in this technology was to create a haptic device that could assist a blind runner to complete the New York Marathon unaided. Kevin explains the journey and the wave they are riding in building this new language and the complex interdependencies. We also discuss the reality of funding that most startups face, the challenges of finding the right investors, Keith discusses the importance of impact, purpose, sustainability and why they created the company to be remote from the start.He also discusses their roadmap and how their technology will evolve. Kevin unpacks the importance of inclusive design and the value of incorporating that with touch and the power of touch as an educational or instructional tool and where this goes when it intersects with Augmented reality. They also explain their guiding principles and their relationship as founders. I think this episode provides much insight into the reality of what running a startup involves, dealing with failure, uncertainty, persistence, and the importance of character and relationships. I hope you enjoy the vision, candor, and resilience of Kevin and Keith.Social links Kevin's Linkedin Keith's Linkedin Instagram Links in the showWear WorksFIT Pratt See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Guest overview This week's guests Keith Kirkland and Kevin Yoo are co-founders of Wearable tech start up Wear WorksIn part one we cover the challenges they both overcame growing up. Keith was born into a loving family but faced growing up in one the most violent towns in the US, Camden, New Jersey. Always feeling an outsider, and a high performer he saw education as his way to escape the streets of Camden and avoid becoming just another statistic in the list of black male deaths under the age of 26Kevin was born in South Korea but faced the culture shock of moving to the US age 10 and navigating his way through school during a time his family was in survival mode. While both Kevin and Keith grew up with economic scarcity each enjoyed an abundance of support and love.We cover their parallel paths to studying Industrial design at New York's Pratt school. Keith explains how his a love of art, talent for math as well as some soul searching questions from a Professor set him on a path to Industrial Design Keith unpacks his circuitous path from art, engineering, to selling shoes to show and handbag design to studying Industrial design at Pratt. I think this show demonstrates how persistence, hard work and willpower, wins in the end. I hope you enjoy the early insights on Keith Kirkland and Kevin Yoo. In part two we dive deep into their experience as start up founders, the challenges they have faced and overcome and their vision for the future of haptic technology.
