This is a transcript of the video at the top of the page featuring an interview with ALTR.
"Hi my name is Alexandra Gramatikas and this is my partner Tripp Driskell and we make up the ALTR of ALTER. We came up with the concept of ALTR when one night we had a wine tasting that was nautical themed with some friends. And we were complaining about our navy blazers not having gold buttons so we could look like Captains. We made the comment that there’s a lack in versatilities surrounding the button. And after a few glasses of wine with some friends and chatting about it, we realized we were on to something and we came up with the concept of the button cover.
When we first started researching button covers we found that there were plenty of options out there, but they either were very expensive or bulky or very craftsy looking. We wanted to come up with a concept that was all versatile, customizable, and affordable. And that is how we came up with our product design. We spent a lot of time cutting out sheet metal, glueing it to buttons, until we came up with this great product that allows you to just slide it over your garment’s existing button, thus altering your apparel. Our patent pending design also allows freedom to use it for other things, beyond the button, as we like to refer to it. We slide it onto our sandals, on a hat, in our hair, on your lapel pin. There’s a lot of other ways to use it, besides just the button.
During my final semester at the University of Central Florida, they had a business plan competition. And I figured, what a great opportunity for me to present ALTR and see if it’s a viable business plan. And to my surprise, among all these tech companies, we ending up winning the money necessary to get started. Now we have the ability to do small quantity custom covers which opens a lot of doors for us because now we can make any design we want. We even printed the Mona Lisa on a button one day just to see if we could. And we can.
The button is an apparel element that nearly everyone has on a piece of clothing in their closet. So we were thinking, why not show that a little bit more love. Why don’t we accessorize our button. Why not take something that we all already own, and customize it. So now we’re giving customers the ability to show their personality or promote their company in a whole new and unique way.
The fact that we actually get to do this and work on this new and unique product and develop these strategies each day just seems very surreal and I feel very fortunate that I get to kind of be a button pioneer in this industry. It’s just so much fun. The hope for the future is that we get to take over the world, one button at a time.
My name is Alexandra and this is Trip and we are the co-founders of ALTR."
