How do you go from a very rough prototype to a thriving company with 5 different beloved products on the market selling in Lowe's, Menard's, Bed Bath & Beyond, CVS, Target, and many more? Meet one of the entrepreneurs behind TubShroom, whose simple improvement to stop drains from getting plugged with hair and other debris has been reviewed more than 70,000 times online. Wow. Today, Solyman Najimi is the President of Juka Innovations Corporation, and TubShroom is Amazon's #1 selling drain catcher. So, how did and his partner do it? It all started when they couldn't find something to prevent his drains from getting clogged, and they decided to invent a solution.
