Kurt's key takeaways

If you’re a nail salon owner, you might be worried about losing your customers to Nimble, and you'd be right to be concerned. This device could be a game changer for people who get their nails done at a traditional nail salon. Just think, no making appointments, no driving to the nail salon, or messy polish, and think of the money you will save over time. It's going to be interesting to see if this "mani robot" takes off and how many people will actually buy one of these devices.
