Meet Justin Rule and Adam Grim.
Both homeschool dads.
Both successful entrepreneurs.
Both teachers with a passion to help develop the next generation of entrepreneurial minds.
Justin Rule built his 27th job into a 7-figure web design agency, from starting with paper delivery at age 12 to a whole host of experiences ranging from flipping fries to saving lives. Not every gig was working for someone else – some were launching his own businesses that succeeded and others failed.
While some people may hold his Ohio State Buckeyes allegiance against him, being a native of Columbus, Ohio and now living in South Central PA, he tries to balance that with being an Arsenal soccer fan. His web design career grew after spending 7 years at a private high school for troubled boys, yet all his adventures revolve around turning the potential of people and ideas into reality.
Adam Grim was homeschooled in South Central PA, went to college at Liberty University, and has been the strategist behind numerous large digital marketing firms, as well as running his own business(es) along the way. Justin and Adam met at a digital marketing firm in Lancaster, PA where they discovered their shared love of helping entrepreneurs and teaching students.
You will be given real information about real issues with honest and transparent facts about entrepreneurship.
We are confident in what we know, but humble about taking credit for God's grace at work in and through us. Pride leads to a fall.
We honor those who have taught us, shared their wisdom, and had grace for us as we learned on our own journey.
My entrepreneurial journey started early! At 12, I had my own newspaper delivery business and collected subscriptions from my neighbors. By 14, I was working at McDonald’s and running a small lawn-mowing business on the side. And by 18, I’d taken a shot at launching 1001 Words Photography, selling my photos on mugs and greeting cards. (The tagline was great, even if the business didn’t quite take off: Some pictures are worth more than a thousand words.) Since then, I’ve started several businesses, some successful and others that taught me a few valuable lessons! From nonprofits bringing dance and art into schools to wellness products and website design for entrepreneurs, I’ve always loved turning ideas into something real.
Today, I own and run Launch Kits, a web design company I co-founded with Adam in 2016. We originally launched as Sparrow Websites, but in 2020, we rebranded as Launch Kits—a great reminder that sometimes your brand needs to evolve as your business grows! Since then, we’ve helped over 2,000 entrepreneurs across six continents bring their businesses online with a website. I’ve learned a lot through the ups, downs, successes, and even a few “well, that didn’t work!” moments, and I’m excited to put those lessons to work helping develop the next generation of entrepreneurial minds through Teen Launchers!
