BizStarts Role: Coaching, investor practice pitch
Crutches are hard on the human body. Comfy Crutch was created to improve the shock and vibrations transmitted with each weight bearing movement and the possibility of slip or re-injury.
It has a patented device created by an inspired crutch user to address both issues, first by use of a spring shock and second with an extra-large pad on a rotating joint.
Jesse Daily and Matthew Buerosse began a full-service engineering firm and have been actively involved in the engineering service industry by 
pioneering a progressive culture for their employees and clients.
"BizStarts has directed us to think critically about our product design benefits, competition, target audience, marketing strategy, and to take a realistic assessment for the need of outside investment."
They design Comfy Crutch to provide three specific solutions to current crutches, canes or walkers. It reduces fatigue, soreness, instability and risk of re-injury while using walking aids. By incorporating an absorption spring, it provides a cushion/transfer of energy/strain reduction, an articulating ball/socket joint, which adds stability, and a plastic foot/rubber shoe adds a 300% increase in surface contact.
Comfy Crutch products are now available online and customer feedback is pouring in. One customer named Rachel had this to say about the product: "Growing up with arthrogryposis and using crutches to walk for the past 25 years, I have had time to dream about the perfect crutch. The Comfy Crutch eliminated some of thee challenges that I previously accepted as 'my life'. The wide round pivoting tip is amazing. This feature keeps my crutch flat on the ground while allowing me to stretch, more and not be afraid it will slip out from me. I am happy to say with the use of Comfy Crutch I can walk longer, go faster and feel safer."
"BizStarts has directed us to think critically about our product design benefits, competition, target audience, marketing strategy, and to take a realistic assessment for the need of outside investment. They have done a wonderful job advising us through the process of writing a business plan and then pitching that plan to a group of 'Real Investors'. We are far better along because of their guidance. I do not know of another place where you can have access to professionals that have experience launching and selling successful product lines. BizStarts is an extremely powerful tool that all investors who are serious about launching a product and seeking outside investment should utilize."
