215: How this Busy Mom Created Play Pits All-Natural Deodorant for Kids (REWIND)
This week we have a rewind episode with @PlayPits founder Chantel Powell. As a busy working mom and wife, Chantel found herself shuttling her son Kameron between summer basketball camp and football practice. She quickly noticed that he was starting to smell like a grown man because he was sweating buckets under his armpits, and that’s when her innovative mindset kicked in. Chantel decided to develop an all-natural deodorant for her son. And so Play Pits the brand was born. Play Pits is a 100% all-natural deodorant. It’s free of aluminum, parabens, synthetic fragrances and other harsh chemicals. While it can be used on the most gentle skin types, it also packs a strong punch against odors. Although it started out with a focus on kids, it has an adult line as well, and I love the Queen deodorant! With recent features by @Beyonce and the grand opening of an official Play Pits warehouse, Play Pits is growing and thriving. In this episode hear how it all got started as Chantel breaks down: How she tested out Play Pits on family to get feedback How customer demand led her to evolve from children’s deodorant to an adult deodorant component as well How she did it all while side hustling Check out this episode and others on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Soundcloud, and Stitcher Links mentioned in this episode Play Pits Fiverr Big Magic Click here to subscribe via RSS feed (non-iTunes feed): http://sidehustlepro.libsyn.com/rss Announcements Join our Facebook Community If you’re looking for a community of supportive side hustlers who are all working to take our businesses to the next level, join us here: http://sidehustlepro.co/facebook Send questions to “Ask Nicaila” You can now send questions for the new “Ask Nicaila” segment that’s coming to Side Hustle Pro.
