When Gable Eaton saw how many pizzas his peers assigned to Marine Barracks at 8th & I ordered, he saw an opportunity. The (then) young Marine came up a plan to open a Dominoes Franchise nearby…but there was one barrier: as an active duty Marine, he’d need the Colonel to sign off on his paper work, and he didn’t quite see the opportunity the same way.
But in some, way, shape or form, that experience meant Mr. Eaton was bitten by the entrepreneurial bug, and today he’s the CEO of TeqTouch based in Chattanooga, TN. TeqTouch provides a patented wearable stylus that fits on your finger – that will prevent you from having to “touch” all those point-of-sale (POS) screens at the gas station or self-checkout line in the grocery store.
