Entrepreneurs have a knack for not only recognizing and meeting needs in a marketplace, but also responding to changing conditions. Given proverbial lemons, they make lemonade.

A Grand Junction couple offers an excellent example of this ability. Faced with a downturn in the energy sector their machine shop serves, Lindsey and Aaron Robinson decided to diversify their operation and, in doing so, started a new business manufacturing a unique line of decor and furnishings.

Here’s hoping their venture and others launched for similar reasons are successful.
