Interview with Jodi Pliszka Part 3 - American Inventor

by Bald Man on May 13th, 2006

Today, we conclude our Mother’s Day interview with Jodi Pliszka. Part 1 and Part 2 were posted earlier in the week, and tomorrow will conclude with a guest post from Jodi. We finish the interview by discussing her experience on American Inventor.

Baldiness.com: How did you hear about the show? What pushed you to audition?

Jodi: I heard about the show from a postcard that was sent to me. I had been trying to get my product manufactured for years. That is what pushed me to the audition.

B: I’m sure you learned a ton about the process, from development to production to marketing. Any lessons that stand out to you?

J: All of the lessons stand out for me. I wrote another patent, and that was great. Protect your products everyone!

The prototyping phase was interesting. I learned that you need to stand firm to your own beliefs and not let the other people push you around. Your idea is your own, so own it and work it that way.

When marketing, keep an open mind and hit as many markets as possible. Passion is the key to everything. With passion will come money. if you lose the passion, you will have nothing.

B: What did you learn about yourself? Going thru the process and progressing as far as you did: How have you grown?

J: I learned that I am a stronger person than ever. I didn’t have my family to consult with, just myself. I relied on my faith in God and knew that htis was His mission for me. And I prayed a lot. You need to stop and be able to hear those prayers, as well. Being by myself and out of touch with reality for seven weeks helped solidify my mission and purpose in this world.

B: What’s next? Are you an inventor-by-trade with another product up your sleeve? Or is the Headline It! your one product.

J: I have a few other inventions up my sleeve, however, I cannot disclose them at this time. I have always been good with my hands and always tinkering to make products better than they are. I get that talent from my dad.

Tomorrow, I’ll share a guest post from Jodi.
