People always ask me how I got into this business. Well, I have always had an entrepreneurial mindset starting back when I was 10 with my first lemonade stand to owning a coffeehouse in Phoenix and now with a pet sitting business and Collapsible Bottle Sales here in Marin.
In early 2011, I came across the idea in an old, random magazine I picked up from the public library in Novato. There was a single paragraph blurb about a product called a collapsible water bottle - no picture, no website, no brand name. When I let my mother read the article she noticed the magazine was over a year old! You mean these bottles have been around that long and weren't mainstream yet?
I tested selling the bottles at 3 different events in late 2011 and I sold out in 2 of the 3 shows! This convinced me to continue selling them and I appeared at 22 different festivals, flea markets and shows in 2012 as "The Bottle Guy".
I credit the discovery of these versatile, re-usable and quality bottles to just plain old-fashioned luck, but also on my insatiable curiosity and continual search for the "next big thing." As an added bonus this is also something that can help the environment.
My goal is to share this high-quality product with as many people as I can, and to provide you with equally high quality customer service. If for any reason you aren't completely satisfied with my NOMAD collapsible bottle, or it doesn't meet your expectations, return it to me at any time for a full refund.
