12-Year Old Entrepreneur’s Invention Makes Debut in Target Stores

 

Gabby Goodwin, founder and CEO of Gabby Bows

GaBBY Bows may be in a major retail store near you. The non-slip barrette invention of seventh grade Confidence CEO Gabrielle “GaBBY” Goodwin and her mom Rozalynn debuts on the shelves of Target stores this month.
The young entrepreneur was just five years old when she started daily insisting she and her mom create a barrette that would not disappear from her hair. Gabby and Rozalynn invented GaBBY Bows — the first and patented Double-Face Double-Snap Barrette and started the company when Gabby was seven years old.

 

Since then, GaBBY Bows have saved families time, money and frustration in all 50 U.S. states and ten countries. Gabby is thrilled about the launch. She comments, “This dream coming true helps girls know that whatever they put their minds and hard work to, they can achieve.”

Gabby was named the youngest ever South Carolina Young Entrepreneur of the Year in 2015 and the 2018 Black Enterprise Teenpreneur of the Year. Their company was named the national SCORE Foundation Outstanding Diverse Business of the Year in 2016.

The Artistic Mind of a Criminal

I used to have a client who is a professor when it comes to art, paintings and antiques. He paints one portrait and makes millions out of it and that really fascinated me so much that I started doing some research into the Art, paintings and antiques industry. I discovered that the painting industry in Ghana is very small and young but elsewhere in the world, it is a huge industry which contributes significantly to the economy of these countries. The USA economy in 2014 and 2015 benefited US$730 billion and US$763.6 billion respectively from the Art, Paintings and Antiques sector(1). US$12 billion (£9.2 billion) was contributed to the UK GDP in 2016 from the Art and Painting sector(2) with Singapore’s Art and Painting contributing S$2.13 billion to the GDP in 2013(3).
