Can you tell our readers about your company’s journey?
So far, Gemstone Lights has been an exhilarating ride filled with innovation, passion, and unwavering commitment to brightening up people’s lives. Our journey began in 2016 when our founder, Tate Leavitt, grew frustrated with the lack of high-quality permanent outdoor lighting options available on the market. Determined to find a better way, he set out to create a system that could withstand the harsh winters of Calgary, Alberta, and enhance the aesthetic of any home.
With the release of our initial “Gemstone Lights 1.0” system, we quickly established ourselves as industry leaders, thanks to our Bluetooth controller that allowed for a wide range of custom colors and patterns. But we didn’t stop there. We are constantly striving to improve and evolve our products, introducing game-changing features such as dedicated 2800k warm white bulbs and the ability to control each light individually. These advancements have enabled us to offer a cloud-based hub controller that allows customers to control multiple Gemstone Lights products through one app, regardless of their location.
Today, we have grown to offer our products in over 300 markets across North America. Our commitment to quality and innovation remains at the forefront of everything we do, and we are dedicated to making high- quality outdoor and indoor LED lighting solutions available to everyone.
What are some of the challenges you faced in the business? What would be your advice to future entrepreneurs?
We’ve definitely faced our fair share of challenges in the business over the years. One major challenge we encountered at Gemstone Lights was building brand recognition. In a sea of competitors, it’s tough to make your mark and stand out. We had to invest time and resources in marketing strategies that would resonate with our target audience. With some patience, creativity, and innovative thinking, our brand started to shine through in the market. Another hurdle we faced was scaling our operations. As demand for our product grew, so did the pressure to deliver. We had to streamline our processes, optimize our supply chain, and invest in talented individuals who could handle the increased workload. It was a delicate balancing act, but with perseverance and a clear vision, we managed to grow our business without compromising on quality.
The best advice for future entrepreneurs would be to embrace failure. It’s not the end of the world when things don’t go as planned. Failure is a stepping stone to success. Learn from your mistakes, adapt, and keep pushing forward. Surround yourself with a talented team who shares your passion and values. Collaboration and diversity of thought are catalysts for innovation. You just need to believe in your vision, stay true to your values, and let the challenges fuel your entrepreneurial spirit.
What major trends or industry shifts do you anticipate in the near future? How is your company preparing to capitalize on them?
Our team is constantly keeping our eyes on the horizon for major trends and industry shifts, and we have some exciting things in store.
One major trend we’ve already seen and anticipate to continue is the growing demand for smart home technology. People are getting more and more interested in controlling their homes with just a tap on their smartphones. Our Gemstone Lights system has been integrated with popular home automation platforms since day one, allowing homeowners to easily control their outdoor lighting with the touch of a button. It’s all about making life simpler and more convenient for our customers.
Another industry shifts we’re closely watching is the increasing emphasis on sustainability and energy efficiency. People are becoming more conscious about their carbon footprint, and outdoor lighting is no exception. That’s why we’ve been investing heavily in developing energy-efficient LED technology and exploring renewable energy sources to power our lights. Our systems are rated to last around 23 years before replacements become necessary, and running the system adds about $50 to your power bill each year. We want to provide our customers with eco-friendly lighting options that not only save them money but also contribute to a greener future.
In terms of capitalizing on these trends, we’re focused on ramping up our research and development efforts to stay at the forefront of smart home technology and energy efficient lighting solutions. We want to continue offering our customers the most advanced and innovative products in the market. We’re excited about the future and the opportunities it holds, and we’re doing everything we can to ensure that we’re prepared to meet the evolving needs of our customers in this ever-changing landscape.
