Hazleton LaunchBox webinar to again feature nationally recognized inventor

Frances Prado to share tips on taking businesses online

HAZLETON, Pa. — First, she shared her secrets to patenting a product. Now, nationally recognized inventor Frances Prado will provide aspiring entrepreneurs with even more insight on Friday, Sept. 11, during the second in a series of Spanish-language webinars hosted by the Hazleton LaunchBox.

Prado, who is among only a small percentage of sole female inventors to ever be awarded a U.S. patent, will break down the process of taking a business online by exploring five factors: preparation, platform, content, presentation and e-commerce.

In leading the free webinar, Prado will be drawing from her own experiences in starting an online store for her product, “Hanging Secrets,” an organizer that hangs in the closet and protects bras and lingerie from getting damaged or worn out.

How Prado took “Hanging Secrets” from idea to implementation was the focus of another webinar she hosted in July.

The upcoming webinar, presented in Spanish only, runs from 7 to 8 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 11.
