Aida Viyana And Her Sister, Just A Few Mom Entrepreneurs
CBS
Aida Viyana is a mom entrepreneur, who started her business over lunch with her sister. Served with dessert were berries. "And my sister said she liked the texture and maybe babies would, too", Viyana added.
Her sister was right, and both women, along with their mother, have been successful ever since. Not only did babies like the feel of 'raspberries', as a teething device, which is the first product they created, but the teething device has grown in sales and has spun off into other ideas.
"The growth within the last five years," said Viyana, "has been tremendous".
And now onto Weston, to another mom entrepreneur. Lisa Lee liked collecting items for a scrapbook when her children were quite young. She's a mother of three. She came up with an idea. "Put slots in the scrapbooks", Lee said.
It took several years to her get idea off the ground, but an amazing idea it was. Her sales are growing with products in over 300 stores and she's sold over 5,000 books.
These business ideas came from the desire of having flexibility of spending time with children, and making money at the same time.
