At just 10 and 11 years old the Bercaw sisters, Isabel and Caroline started what would become their great entrepreneurial journey before they were even out of high school. Isabel and Caroline, like many enjoy bath bombs however the two thought they could make a better product than what was on the market. At not even 12 years old, the two sisters had their mother purchase the ingredients to make bath bombs and got to work perfecting their recipe. Towards the end of the summer that year they had made around 150 bath bombs and planned to enter their local craft show and sell their product.
In the first day of the craft show the sisters sold out of the 150 bath bombs. They were however able to scramble and make a bunch more for the second day of the event and again sold out and then they knew they had a hit on their hands. From their the brand only began to grow. In 2015 they had their bath bombs in 30 different shops local to their area. At the time they were making around 20,000 bath bombs in their basement in a single month and they only expanded from there. In 2016 the sisters attended an international trade show in Atlanta, Georgia where they had secured a place in multiple stores nationwide. The family eventually had to upgrade their setup and move the manufacturing to outside their home when Target called wanting to sell their product in 1,800 stores nationwide. This caused the Bercaw family to move their once tiny business to a large warehouse to fulfill manufacturing demands.
Even Caroline and Isabel started the company and it took off when they were still under 18 years old, they were still able to have a semi-normal school experience and attend high school. They both enrolled in their schools special work program allowing them to use some of their time they spent on the business to go towards their high school diploma. TheĀ two sisters say that the business has brought their whole family closer because each one of them, even their younger brother, helps with creating and running the business. In 2018 the company had projected earnings of about $20 million, and to think it all started when Caroline and Isabel were only 10 and 11 years old. It is exciting to see such young entrepreneurs such as these two girls and it is interesting and inspiring to see it all start with such a simple product and idea.
