蛤?晚上也可以丟棒球?可以!夜光棒球Spark Catch | Wei Hung Lin | TEDxNanshan High School
夜光棒球的發明人,用超過5年的下班時間,打造出世界上第一顆夜光棒球,從此多了發明家這個頭銜。發明雖然做出來,但這個案子卻因為各種原因在國內外群眾募資kickstarter, Indiegogo , 嘖嘖 全都失敗了。
身為棒球迷的堅持讓這場比賽在九局下兩出局兩好球的狀況下,擊出了逆轉全壘打!靠著永不放棄的努力,自己完成了產品設計、生產、行銷、建立品牌Spark Catch,並獲得了成功。
從此又多了一個頭銜 - 創業家。
幾年後,夜光棒球在美國雅馬遜獲得了客戶高分評價並成功達到累積銷售超過15萬顆的目標。在獲得許多經驗及資金後,更多瘋狂的新產品也正在路上,準備與大家見面。
之後應該還會再多一個頭銜 - 瘋狂發明家。 The inventor of the glow-in-the-dark baseball spent more than five years off work to create the world's first glow-in-the-dark baseball, and has since been given the title of inventor. Although the invention was made, the case failed due to various reasons in the domestic and international crowd-funding kickstarter, Indiegogo all failed.
The perseverance of a baseball fan led to a come-from-behind home run with two outs and two strikes in the bottom of the ninth inning! By never giving up, he designed, manufactured, marketed, and branded Spark Catch, and became a success.
From then on, he had another title - entrepreneur.
A few years later, Glow-in-the-Dark Baseballs received high ratings from customers on Amazon.com and successfully reached the goal of selling more than 150,000 units. After gaining a lot of experience and capital, more crazy new products are on the way to meet you.
