Doran and Kate Blinderman,

owners of Three Birds Wine Bar

Located in the heart of Marin County, Three Birds Wine Bar is a relaxed and inviting wine bar and retail shop. Three Birds specializes in boutique wines and offers artisan cheeses and charcuterie to complement the wine.

Briefly describe your business philosophy.

We strive to make Three Birds a relaxing place to visit. Explore our wine list, chat with a date or enjoy a glass with some friends — Three Birds is the perfect place to unwind and find a new favorite wine.

Dr. Karron L. Power, founder of PowerMD

PowerMD is the first and only clinic of its kind in Marin, offering a full array of laser treatments, facial fillers, Botox, hormone and testosterone replacement, medical peels, weight loss, supplements, skin care, and IV nutritional boosts in one new location. Combing these treatments yields faster, better and longer-lasting results.

Briefly describe your business philosophy.

People want to look and feel their best, so I offer antiaging solutions that are more than skin deep. Beauty and vitality are most apparent when coming from the inside out.

What makes you excel at what you do?

The most impressive and long-lasting aesthetic treatment results are seen in our patients who have their hormone and nutrition levels optimized first. I see faster recovery times and increased collagen production following laser, Botox or filler treatments and better weight loss results.

What makes your work worthwhile?

PowerMD is more than a clinic — it’s a community for those who choose to thrive rather than just survive. In fact, patients tell me they feel and look better than they did 10 years ago.

What is your competitive edge?

As a true wine bar, we are able to offer great prices on our wines by the glass and we pour varietals not found at larger bars and restaurants.

Your thoughts regarding working with a spouse, family or partner?

We obviously enjoy each other’s company and enjoy drinking wine, so this is ideal for us.

What (or who) were you going to be when you grew up?

Doran was a technology consultant and I spent my career in small business marketing. Drinking wine and visiting wineries was always a hobby and we dreamed of owning a wine bar one day.

Which product or service (that you offer) is your favorite?

We feature several monthly wine clubs that vary in price and wine options. Our clubs are unique because you’ll receive wine from different wineries every month. Traditional wine clubs only offer wines from a single winery.

How did you come up with the name for the wine bar?

We were inspired by the Bob Marley song “Three Little Birds.” The song is about happiness and loving life and that’s what having a wine bar is all about for us.

What techniques have you used to build your business?

I’m always working to increase awareness of just how effective currently available treatments are. I do this by giving seminars and writing articles. Happy patients also spread the word.
