Congrats! looking forward to see what NewGen has to offer; the wheel tracking idea is a good start.

Thank you Kevin, I think it will be key to my new business model. Freeing up my time to develop new wheel designs, and concentrate on sales, marketing and production.

How cool will it be to get a text when your wheels come out of machining, or when your wheels ship, pro-actively, from a wheel company?

I'm also working with a guy on a new smart phone app. He's developed a working app for a few other companies, and I think it in conjunction with the new order tracker will alleviate a lot of customer's grief. No more over projecting only to disappoint, now a customer will know exactly where there order is, at all stages of the build.

Thank you Ron, you are so right.

I was talking with Matt Alcala yesterday, about how to break into new markets, and he mentioned you might be a good person to talk to for some insight.

Mind if we chat a little?

Congrats Jon. I know the toll it took on you. It's a smart move for both parties involved. It's a little bitter sweet considering the all the hard work we all put into the business, but at the end of the day, I am happy the business ended up in good hands.
