Author: Rita Crompton March 29, 2025 Duration: 38:12

On this week's "Invent America" episode, Rita Crompton and her co-host, Michael King, discuss "How Important 'Showing-off' is for a Product Launch!" with Leslie Holland, inventor of The Jewelry Closet, & the winner of the INNOVATION AWARD at the 2025 ASD Market Week, Angela Kendall, inventor of Snap N Pack, joined by Don Skaggs, President of the Inventors Network KY.


The Jewelry Closet is the first and only modular jewelry organizer. Leslie Holland is a first-time inventor, having navigated her way through the invention process for nearly three years. As a life-long problem solver, with a long-standing record of successes in global organizations, she finds problem-solving in service to others incredibly motivating. Leslie’s winning formula for success has always been others first, preparation, and tenacity. Using this same approach, Leslie is positioned to realize success yet again as she seeks licensees to bring this unique problem-solving invention to life.


Angela Kendall, the winner of this year's Innovation Award sponsored by America's Inventor Lady and HomeTalk USA, talks about her invention, the Snap N Pack. The Snap N Pack is the ultimate modular storage solution. The ONLY container with customizable compartments, the Snap N Pack easily snaps together different sections to store hot, cold, and room-temperature foods separately.


This episode's industry expert, Don Skaggs, is President of the Inventor's Network KY, a nonprofit that helps inventors through education and support services. Don Skaggs is himself an inventor, as well as an entrepreneur, speaker, author, and consultant to a wide range of businesses.
