ResetJust like Victor Kiam, who liked his Remington shaver so much that he bought the company, Charlie Wienberg bought his then-pregnant wife a rocking chair from Blanchet Canadian Rocker, then bought the store!

For 25 years Charlie ran the family store until the effects of an aging business model caused him to liquidate inventory and close the doors.

Charlie is our first RESET subject to go from business owner to working for a large company … the reverse of our usual scenario.

Is it working for him to answer to a boss when HE was once the boss? Here’s his story.
