Susie Carder She started out as a low paid hairdresser trying to support her 2 little girls. But working for someone else became a challenge (to say the least). So she decided to do whatever it took to create her own business. After much blood sweat and tears (mixed with cheap mascara) she went on to create, not one, but two $10 Million companies Jess Ekstrom The moment that inspired her to become an entrepreneur happened on a family camping trip where she was frustrated with tangled headphone cords. She told her dad (who’s an entrepreneur), “I’m just going to invent headphones that are like slinky cords so they never get tangled again!” He sat her down, looked her in the eyes and told her, “Keep thinking that way. Keep thinking about how you can solve problems and you will.” Nicky Senyard Nicky is CEO and Founder of Fintel Connect, an award-winning marketing analytics company built specifically for the financial services space.
