Mom-trepreneurs
Betsy and Angie are long-time jogging buddies turned business
partners and problem solvers. Their story starts a few years after
the birth of Betsy’s twin boys, who had recently transitioned to
bunk beds. Now a mom to three small children, reality hit Betsy
hard as she realized that trying to get kids to make their beds,
especially the top bunk, was impossible.
Fighting to keep
her sanity, Betsy bought some zippers, and with the help of her own
mom, created the prototype that would change bedding forever. She
quickly enlisted the help of Angie, who saw the potential and need
for a product like this as a mom herself. The Beddys Bedding brand
was formed and has quickly exploded over the last several years.
With huge support from their husbands, Betsy and Angie have been
able to overcome many of the obstacles that come with creating a
new product by going all in while the dads took care of the
kids.
If
you have ever wanted to create a product or start a business, you
will absolutely learn something from this episode. Going from
stay-at-home parent to business owner isn’t easy or quick, but the
end result can be life changing.
All
of this and a ton more on this episode of the Tactical Baby Gear®
