When and how did you start your business?
When we saw the prototype demonstration and understood the challenges that women and young girls were facing on a monthly basis, we knew that we had to get on the frontline with this product to end "the silent suffering" that was happening.
What were some of the challenges in starting your business?
Locating a building that was big enough to facilitate our growth.
What is the key to the success of your business?
We prioritize the mission over the "bottom line". Making sure that women and young girls are comfortable and dry supersedes everything else.
What lessons learned can you share with people to make their business succeed?
Invest in your business infrastructure from the beginning. The spoils of success will come down the line. Don't allow the desire for self gain to take over the priority of investing into your thriving business. Run your operation as lean as possible in the beginning and let the business talk to you about growth.
What pitfalls should they avoid?
Treat the people that believe in your vision right. Make sure your employees feel appreciated. Don't ever make the people who believed with you feel like is all about you and forgetting about us as a team.
