3 of 10 Questions for Alicia Rockmore, Co-Founder of Buttoned Up

Alicia Rockmore, co-founder of Ann Arbor based Buttoned Up, was recently interviewed by the the All Financial Matters blog. 10 questions in the interview, some highlights:

How long did it take you to get your company’s products in Target stores?

2 years from when we started Buttoned Up.

What advice do you have for aspiring entrepreneurs?

Do not give up. People will tell you what is wrong with your idea, why its already been done (there are no new ideas), etc… If you believe in what you are doing, keep at it and you will find success.

What motivates you?

I love the challenge of making products that will help women get organized and that will really mean something to them. There is no greater high than when people write or call and say they love our products.
