RANGE MOVEMENT
Brooke McDonald & Megan Crawford-Owners
HIIT . STRENGTH . YOGA . BARRE . RECOVERY
Range Movement strategical combines functional training with mindful effective yoga practices delivered by skilled coaches to offer an individualized experience. “Our collaborations with Sandra-SBDC started at the very early stages of our business planning; she was able to provide direction and checklists to make sure we had, not only a zoomed out scope of knowledge for what it takes to open a business, but also a detailed list of objectives we needed to accomplish. As military spouses who are not native to the local area, SBDC was able to get us in touch with the local Chamber & provide up-to-date information during the Covid-19 environment. Range Movement would not be the success it is today without the support & guidance from the SBDC."

Beat the Bomb, Alexander Patterson & Jessie Bull
Alexander Patterson & Jessie Bull own Beat the Bomb, an experiential entertainment company in Brooklyn. Their business features a game in which players try to disarm a paint bomb or get blasted by it. With the pandemic, they migrated the concept to an online game platform. The pandemic hit the business hard and with the NYS-mandated shutdown, the partners thought they would have to fire staff to survive. After exhausting PPP funding they secured in 2020, the partners consulted the SBDC and worked with Advisor Pascual Castano to obtain $500,000 in EIDL funding. The SBDC also helped them apply for second draw PPP funding. The funds enabled Beat the Bomb to keep 50 employees on payroll and continue operations.

Simple & Sentimental Grows from Dorm Room Startup to Multi-Million Dollar Company
Taylor Walden was just 18-years old when she launched her business, Simple & Sentimental, in her dorm room at East Carolina University in 2016. Walden turned to the SBTDC in 2017 to help prepare for two upcoming pitch competitions in February 2018. The personalized gift company won first place in both, collecting $18,500 in prize funds. After tripling its revenue from 2018 to 2019, the company’s growth was halted by the pandemic in early 2020. Simple & Sentimental learned to adapt, pivoting to produce face shields and then again to launch a line of quarantine themed gift boxes. The company moved into a new 7,000 sq. ft. facility in Ayden in 2021 and now has more than $1 million in annual sales and 15 employees.
