I LOVE good design, it makes life easier.
I design products that solve problems, including
EZ Bar Box, EzLightWraps, and Fitware™ Modular Storage System
Hi, I'm Marj Weir
Self employed in graphic design for many years, it's a great background for other ventures. I created and patented the Fitware™ Modular Storage System, also known as TailgaterBox.com This was chosen out of over 3000 products by a VC group to fund my patent.
From this venture I've learned a lot - CAD art, 3D printing, focus groups, manufacturing, prototyping, patents, plastics, shipping, customs, web design, marketing, e-commerce, trade shows, product fulfillment and more.
Before Inventing...
• I was a driver examiner giving road tests at 19
• Managed the St Paul Midway DMV at age 21
• On the side I did freelance graphic design
• For a time, I was a wedding and Party Cake designer, (including a few for the owners of Cafe Latte!)
Creative collaborations...
• Did catalogs and presentation pieces for LeCordon Bleu Cooking School and Brown College of Mendota Heights, also teaching part time at Brown.
• Dreamed up Sail Away Bar & Restaurant, including a weekly music schedule, catering and many local events.
Real estate is a collaboration...
• Over 150 residential real estate transactions, including many investor properties, and home staging
• Many home rehabs, from distressed properties into beautiful homes, resulting in the highest area sales.
Real Estate is my current side hussle!
Yes, I'm still a realtor and love it! But designing is my passion, as well as putting people together - and I’d like to connect with you. If I can be of assistance, drop a line or make a call.
EzLightWraps has taken off! Now selling on Etsy, Walmart.com and Wayfair.com besides our site.
