Way Back When...
The end of 2017 marked the beginning of everything we have become. Just like everything else, an idea was poofed into exsistence from what seemed like nowhere while working on another project. As we designed and 3d printed prototypes we began to build and explore on a hobby level. What could this really be? Who would even want to build with this? 6 Months in and thousands of 3d printed pieces later and we started to catch the vision. From there we launched a company, started the patent process and began attending local school and technology events. To our surprise kids and adults alike enjoyed building and creating with NURKL a lot!
OUR PASSION, GOAL, AND PRODUCT
At Kingdom Quest we are much more than a toy company... You can think of us as the Willy Wonka of toys. We create passion to drive imagination. And we want to show the world what it means to dream, inspire, grow, love and think outside the box. Here is a little nibble of our story...
Market Launch
After years of working and waiting we are ready to launch NURKL end of 2023! Like we've said, we are more than just a toy company, and our desire is to Inspire creativity in the imagination the way God intended. We want our company to be an example of what friendships and family can be. Our Goal is to create a work environment that people enjoy working in. When someone works for us it's no longer about just getting a paycheck, but about enjoying what you do, being a part of the big picture and not being looked down upon. Everyone within our company is human and we desire to treat everyone with respect and compassion. As we grow as a family we will accomplish great things together and see our children go above and beyond our expectations.
Big Launch!
Work started to stack up as there were many things to get organized and finished while preparing to launch our next big step. We still needed a large sum of money to get manufacturing started and that would be raised through crowdfunding. So we connected with a company in New York that would manage our campaign and started creating everything we needed to present our product to our customer. After several months of work we were ready to launch the campaign. On the morning of November 21st 2023 our campaign went live and people started supporting us. It was exciting to finally be at this point!
Restart
One summer day in 2022 God spoke and said, “It’s time to step out in faith.” Two weeks following God started to open doors for us to move into large scale manufacturing. At this point we knew we needed seven people on our team to get everything ready for market. And we still needed Capital to launch. But when you are faithful to what God calls you to, He will make the impossible possible. As we trusted the Lord, He began to bring us the members of our team. Every person was perfect for the role. In the weeks following, we set a goal of $50,000 we needed from investors to get everything rolling. And within a few weeks God brought us every single investor to hit our goal.
Shutdown
It was at this time we discovered it was necessary to shut down our current process and regroup. We needed a new plan, a bigger plan, a better plan. And the only way to succeed was to push through on large scale manufacturing. At this point investors were a must have as we had absolutely no funds to move things forward. In a huge turn of events God showed up. His promises in our lives and company were brought back to our memory. He reminded us to stay faithful and He would open the doors. So for about 3 years we let go of everything believing God would work it out in the right time.
AT this point we had been to many events with more on the horizon. With small scale manuacturing started, we could begin taking pre-orders. Everything came to this moment. We were now on our way to officially getting our product on the market! The excitement was building, but we had one big problem. The injection mold machine we were using to manufacture our pieces was too small and slow to produce what we needed to meet demand. Orders were coming in faster than we could get them out. This caused a big problem and pushed us to look back into large scale manufacturing. Once again we faced the task of getting investors involved.
Market Launch
As the market demand started to grow, we realized it was time to start manufacturing high quality pieces. But this would require a large sum of capital to get the process started. We began reaching out to manufacturers and spent months getting quotes. But getting the funding just wasn’t coming easy. It turns out that people with lots of money don’t want to fund companies that don’t have a history of sales. Then one day we met someone who informed us we could manufacture our own pieces through a local Maker Space. This was a step in the right direction as we were able to begin the process of small scale manufacturing.
