Boo Boo Goo

Kiowa Kavovit is about as young as an entrepreneur can get at the age of just six years old. Kiowa first appeared on the television show “Shark Tank” to pitch her idea to the Sharks in episode 516 of the series – the young entrepreneurs special.

Kiowa and her father Andrew presented to the Sharks her invention known as “Boo Boo Goo.” It is a paint like substance that you can smear onto a cut or open wound and it will act as a malleable band aid. The main thing that distinguishes this particular product from other liquid bandages is the fact that it comes in an assortment  of bright colors which is very appealing to children. Also, it was created to be pain free when peeling it off after use.

After getting shut down by all but one of the Sharks, Kevin O’Leary made an offer to this young entrepreneur with the stipulation that she and her father must get a patent for this product very soon after the deal was struck. O’Leary says that this product has been very successful and he loves the fact that he can strike a business deal with such a young entrepreneurial mind.

Andrew Kavovit was already an avid inventor and was able to make his daughters’ dream come true with Boo Boo Goo. All it takes is one good idea from a young mind for something spectacular to take off, as was the case for this remarkable product.

Simple Sugars

on March 29, 2013, Lani Lazzari – an 18 year old entrepreneur – delivered an idea to the Sharks on the TV show “Shark Tank” that exploded into a huge success. She had started a humble company creating and selling a skin care product made of completely organic minerals that would clear up an assortment of skin related issues including eczema and psoriasis. Lani was successful in her business prior to pitching her incredible creation to the Sharks, yet her success skyrocketed once Mark Cuban agreed to invest $100,000 into her company for 33% of her sales. Her profits went from $50,000 in sales to an unbelievable multi-million dollar number in just one year!

After being asked what his most successful investment was since starting on the TV show “Shark Tank,” Mark Cuban immediately responded that the Simple Sugars Scrub was the best investment he has ever made. There are so many orders coming in for Lani’s innovative product that she had to completely restructure her small business in order to produce more scrubs in an efficient manner.

Lani’s story in very unique in that she is only 18 years old and is making millions of dollars a year off of one product that has solved a problem that many products claim they can solve but rarely do. Growing up with sever eczema herself, she had an incredible drive to eliminate her unfortunate problem and did so with hard work, research, and determination. Lani wanted to help everybody who suffers from this issue and made her scrub available to those who need it.

Lani’s success is very inspirational and shows that anybody can be an entrepreneur if they are willing to put in the effort. Nothing in life comes easily and solving a problem for oneself doesn’t mean that we can’t share our innovative ideas with the world.
