from Michigan Business Network · host Michigan Business Network
Chris Holman welcomes Kevin Moran, President and Owner, Dream Machine LLC, South Lyon, MI. Kevin Moran, president and owner of Dream Machine LLC, joined Michigan Business Beat to discuss his entrepreneurial journey and two inventions he runs as lean, laptop-based businesses. His background spans engineering roles at Chrysler, working with 5-hour Energy founder Manoj Bhargava, and growing a radiation detection company from 8 to 50 employees before launching his own products. The first product, the "Oil Udder," is a magnetic funnel designed to catch oil drips when removing a car's spin-on oil filter, currently sold mainly through Amazon. His second invention, a gravity-fed dog shower attachment, aims to reduce stress and anxiety in dogs during bath time by replacing harsh spray pressure with a gentler, waterfall-like flow. Moran also participates in the Michigan Inventors Coalition Expos, where he mentors early-stage inventors on how much can be accomplished from home with minimal overhead before major investment is needed. » Visit MBN website: www.michiganbusinessnetwork.com/ » Subscribe to MBN’s YouTube: www.youtube.com/@MichiganbusinessnetworkMBN » Like MBN: www.facebook.com/mibiznetwork » Follow MBN: twitter.com/MIBizNetwork/ » MBN Instagram: www.instagram.com/mibiznetwork/
