Spotlight on Hansen's Eagle Eye in Northern California - Richard Hansen

What motivated you to start your business? What experience do you offer.

I found it difficult to focus when I shot my rifle at times. It was fuzzy and unclear so I started to research optics. I wanted a technological sound product to help shooter focus with bifocals.

I am an electrical engineer in avionics with experience in a wide range of aircraft and auto electrical engineering.

What makes your business different/stand out?

My business  specializes in developing an eye wear glasses that have optomeric and lab support. This is not a high volume business so the big eye glass companies do not want to get into it as well as the big optic labs - they shy away. My partner is a medial ophthalmologist surgeon so we have a unique model.

Spotlight on High Desert Decals in Alturas, CA - Dan Ryan

What motivated you to start your business?

Ten years ago, I was looking for decals for my truck that represented the western game species - specifically mule deer, black tail, chukar, turkey, etc.    I was disappointed with what I was seeing offered in the sporting goods stores so I decided to design my own.  Friends and other hunters commented on the decals when they saw them and asked where I got them and my business was started.  I have a custom design staff who I personally direct so that the decals are representative of the species with unique poses and tag lines that I believe reflect the outdoors and the feelings of the hunting and fishing person. My decals are by  a "sportsman for a sportsman"

What makes your business different/standout?

I am an avid hunter and fisherman and know the outdoors and what most hunters want. All of our decals are unique designs, not found anywhere else. In fact, I am the only decal company offering chukar decals. I also offer a custom decal which can be made from a photograph showing the specific animal that a hunter was harvested with date, etc.  We are unique in that we capture that outdoor moment in a vehicle window decal.
