Of other customers while youre there . Only 1 of Pharmaceuticals Business is conducted online. One entrepreneur got the bright idea to relieve some of the pain points with a digital full. Reporter when eric went to his drugstore to pick up a prescription medicatio in january of 2015, his headache was just beginning. He waited in line nearly an hour before speaking to a pharmacist. He said, im so sorry, were out of stock of zpack. Im thinking, this is january, its the only thing that pharmacies should have. I cant believe this is an experience that exists on every Street Corner in america. Reporte w42 percent of respo survey said their pharmacy was out of stock at least once, causing them to make a return trip. Eric came up with a concept for an online pharmacy. He refined it for more than a year with an old friend, pharmacist sonia patel. Most pharmacy systems are built on technology that was in use 20 years ago. It didnt work for the pharmacist, didnt work for the consumer, didnt work for the doctors or insurers. Reporter they found health care players needed better communication tools, that pharmacies have to improve inventory systems, and that customers wa trans pricing. Aimi for solutions, they opened capsule in the spring of 2016. Available only in new york city, customers can order online or ask their doctors to do it for them. The company says tens of thousands of people and thousands of physicians are using capsule. Like other pharmacies, capsule negotiates prices with wholesalers and takes a cut from retail sales. Capsule does not discuss whether its profitable just yet. Customers can pick up in person in manhattan but most opt for free delivery. A team of 60 couriers, staff employees often braving the element, deliver anywhere in new yorks five boroughs. Business opportunities are huge. Reporte dr. Jeffrey dobrow, chief medical officer at one medical, isnt just telling his patients to shop around for medications these days. Hes doing it himself, because hes finding better prices online for his own medications, sometimes less than half the price his pharmacy benefits manager or pbm gets at cvs. Two out of five were wildly mispriced. I just cannot imagine what the average consumer has to deal with. Reporter why the difference . What the independents do is try to find the cheapest price they can across the market for each individual medication. The pbms are looking at a bundle of medications. It may be several thousand medicine. For the insurance company, the bundle is less expensive. But for an individual consumer, one particular drug may end up being much more expensive. Reporter capsule alerts customers when it can beat their insurance companys price. But the company prefers not to be called an independent pharmacy. It has big plans. We will absolutely expand the business nationally and internationall over time. We think the business works everywhere. Reporte confidenc that comes from experiences like the one sonia patel had, texting with a customer only weeks after capsule opened. She said, hey, sonia, can i take iron supplements while im pregnant . And then there was this dot dot dot, by the way, is it weird youre the first person im telling im pregnant, my husband doesnt even know yet. We had this amazing moment of, wow, we built expe that people have an incredible. Pharmacists have ranked high in trust, but capsule is hoping to help the health care players work better together. How come its not easy to find you if you call 911 on a cellphone . A dangerous fact, if you consider 70 of the roughly 240 million 911 calls we make each year come from cellphones. Thats why two young entrepreneurs in new york city are business where youre saying youre at and where the phone shows youre at is five miles apart. Reporter its a problem thats dogged 911 operators. Built in the 1960s, 911 works well with landline phones. But call on a cellphone and 911 gets only an approximate location. Often using nearby cell towers. Even if the call is made at a 911 call center. Roughly 4,000 meters away from where were actually at. Reporte thats why joe thomas staff in delaware is testing rapid sos. Software allowing the existing 911 system to read more data coming from smartphones. It pinpoints it right on top of the building where were located. Reporter Michael Martin got the idea after he felt like he had been followed home in new york city one night back in 2012. 911 call takers are doing heroic work in light of that challenge. But were giving them basically no data to manage those calls. Repor he teamed with nicholas horlick who volunteered taking calls on an emergency hotline during college. It was the same type of problem of, someones calling and theyre in distress and no idea where they are. Reporter so they cofounded rapid sos. But perhaps more important than their tech knowhow was the four years they spent taking input of the 6,500 911 call centers. They released a free app. One man got lost when he hiked in the blue ridge mountains. Your mind goes into frantic mode. Rep he tapped the haven app on his phone. Operators told me to stay right where i was and a park ranger would be there in 15 minutes. And they were. Reporter almost 20 of the nations 911 call centers are using rapid sos. It may cover most of the country by years end. For some, it cant happen soon enough. In 2014, an fcc study said fixing 911 location issues could save more than 10,000 lives a year. Congress talked about it but there hasnt been any legislation, let alone any passage of something that would make a difference. Rep tom wheeler is one of three f fcc chairman who have invested in rapid sos. They have built a platform that can be applicable in multiple kinds of situations, not just 911 calls. Reporter those situations, upgrades to home security, car monitors like on star, and Wearable Health devices, are where rapid sos hopes to make money. This screen will have health information, heart rate, blood pressure. If its coming from a connected car, now its a picture of the car, the impact, how many people were in the vehicle, where airbags depl roll the cost, 3 to 10 per month. It could be a small price to pay. The enormity of what were working on here is what affects everybody on the team. This technology will have the power to save a lot of lives. Reporter one interesting addition, if the phone has a camera it can put out a video to first responders, givingn them a chance to see what theyre getting into before they arrive onsite. If youre using an old school but still fashionable wrist watch, you might appreciate the handiwork of a philadelphia entrepreneur who got the bright idea to design a timepiece built with natural materials, harkening back to a simpler time i reporter if you make and sell wrist watches these days, you have to compete with phones, fitbits, smartwatches. It better be good and it ought to be different. Lorenzo bufas flexible wooden watch band, now, that is different. My personal interest in Material Development led to worlds first soft and flexible wooden watch band. Reporter wooden accessories were trending in 2012. But bufa says wood watches then werent up to snuff. His senior project at philadelphia universitys school of the arts led him down a twisted path, iteration after iteration, until he set on wood veneer backed by leather. He began to contact design blogs and magazines about a student who had made something he thought they see. The watch got some press, and manufacturers as far away as china began to contact him. The gumption you need as an entrepreneur, no shame. Reporter his moxie and passion for natural materials convinced bufa to start the analog watch company. The thing is, his watches arent analog. We actually use Quartz Movements which are battery powered. A conventional analog would be a mechanical watch. But were at a lower price point. Reporte his wood watches sell for 150. That tick tick Tick Movement is a Quartz Movement instead of a smooth sweep. Analog references are desired to be focused on the simpler things. Our goal obviously is to inspire people and to add a little bit. Reporter in 2013, bufa got hundreds of preorders on kickstarter, raising 75,000. At the time kickstarter had modern art. Th new yorks mus buyers at the museums gift shop placed analogs first wholesale order. Today the business is about 60 Online Retail and 40 wholesale, mostly museum shops across the country. They appreciate the ingenuity that goes into the design process. Rep in 2015, analog put a new material on display, marble, as well as a line of classics with watch faces made of either wood or marble. The midcentury aesthetic attracted orders from new yorks guggenheim museum. I barely have to sell these, the staff barely has to sell them, because people recognize them for what they are. We have to stay connected to the art in our collection or of course the actual building whic itself. Reporter that vision belonged to architect Frank Lloyd Wright who famously connected his work to its natural surroundings. His circular design and use of light both inspired by nature turned Museum Architecture inside out. Nature inspires bufas work too. There are wooden sunglasses now and a botanist collection of jewelry featuring real flowers encased in resin. Perhaps bufas time is yet to come. Were really creating conversation pieces or what some of our museums call wearable works of art. For his next trick, bufa is working on a new product using cork. Ever since price club introduced consume to the idea of stocking up and saving, in the 1970s, weve been snapping up boatsize packages. Now the biggest of the club stores do 200 billion of business each year. One new jersey entrepreneur got the idea to put bulk discoun. Reporter it sounds to storybook. Starting a company in your parents garage. The computer was right here. There was still a car on that side. Man, it sure isnt sexy when youre sitting here and not getting an order on a single day. Repor chei wong and his team of went from the garage to a 100 million a year business, boxed, selling bulksized snacks, food, paper towels, toilet paper, costco and sams club fare, online. The garage can only fit like 200 items. Reporter just up the road from his parents home, the newly automated new jersey warehouse can ship tens of thousands of items in a day. There are also Fulfillment Centers in las vegas, dallas, and atlanta. Wong got the idea while he was in law school, living in new york city, where he didnt have access to the bulk discounts his parents grew to depend on in the suburbs. We just didnt have the time, the patience, or frankly, living in a city, the car to get up to the price club or to costco or sams club anymore. We thought, how many millions of othe reporter wong and his team wanted a mobile solution, an app. Mobile is part of their dna, having sold their mobile video game studio, astro ape, to zynga. They went after retail. It was risky. Consumers were shopping on phones in 2013. Most of their buying was done on computers. Over the last four years its become mainstream. Thats in 48 months, the Consumer Mindset has shifted in lunchtime is coming. Reporter laura has been using boxed for more than three years. I always joke with people that i dont leave the house unless i have to. Boxed has really helped me be home with the children and doing things i want to do as opposed to things i have to do. Reporter boxed has no membership fees, competitive pricing, and Free Shipping on orders of 49 or more. Wong targeted busy individuals. But in terms of dollars, its biggest customers are other businesses. That caught us by surprise, how big b2b is for us. Reporter perhaps another surprise, no one lost a job when the new jersey warehouse turned on its Automated System this summer. Eigh months in the making, costing millions, its got a fourstory automated sorting system and nearly three miles of track. Boxed trained the same employees who pushed carts and filled orders by hand to run its new system. It was about actually preparing them for the future, where all jobs in Fulfillment Centers, and maybe even a lot of retail jobs, will look like what youre looking at behind us. It took a lot of folks getting out of their comfort zone, to say, hey, i dont even have a College Education and youre asking me to troubleshoot robotics . This for. Work life balance. We would love reporter boxed is helping to pay for employee weddings and their childrens College Education. The last thing i want on my tombstone, here lies chei wong. Ahead, why some Older Americans ma Small Businesses are often considered the backbone of the economy. Theyre job creators and innovators. But many are trying to overcome a major obstacle finding Skilled Labor. Kate rogers has reporter for denise, the biggest challenge in running her Construction Management firm is simply finding the right people for the job. Her busi is a Second GenerationFamily Owned Company with 12 to 15 yearround employees. But depending o the size of the project shes working on, she can need more than 100 subcontracto at a time.

Near in denver its an extremely tight labor market with unemployment at just over 2 p. This is good news, that companies are looking to hire. But its a real struggle for them sometimes. Its a particular problem for Smaller Companies that dont have ts that Large Companies do. Reporter west of denver, in evergreen, colorado, tony employs seven fulltime workers at his bike shop. He knows those with particular skill sets, including his top two mechanics, would be nearly impossible to replace. As it stands today, with the labor market being what it is and how competitive it is, in the front range, it would be very difficult for us to find a replacement for somebody with that level of experience. Reporter so he, like burgess, works to offer competitive benefits Like Health Care stipend, paid time off, and flexibility in scheduling to hang onto the good workers both Small Businesses have. With the cycling industry being what it is, there are very few people making six figures plus. So our ability to be able to retain employees has to come from somewhere outside of just the dollar figure that theyre making. That ability to hold on to their enjoyment and working in the bike shop is very key. Reporter for nightly busine. Sometimes Business Opportunities come later in life. And a growing number of Older Americans are able to do what they love, chase their passion, and run a successful business. Kate rogers is back. This time the st.

Ex say the rise in entrepreneur is a byproduct of the financial crisis that decimated the Retirement Savings of many, and in part the desire to remain active. Most older people approaching the traditional retirement age are actually looking to stay active beyond 65. They miss the social aspect of work. They miss the purpose of work. And work is an important emotional contributio to peoples sense of identity. And i dont think that that, you know disappears just because you hit a particular chronologicaage. Reporter Darryl Jennings launched his business in 2013 coowners, making hue ployees ing cases for guitars. The biggest challenge is the fact that youre not going to make money for quite a while.
