-BUSINESS IDEA- 1. BlueLand - Plastic free cleaning products.

[YouTube Link:

BlueLand is a company founded in 2019 that aims to replace single-use plastic cleaning supplies with environmentally friendly alternatives. The company's initial focus was on cleaning sprays and foaming hand soaps, typically composed of up to 90% water and packaged in single-use plastic bottles. BlueLand developed a novel solution in the form of dry refill tablets that, when mixed with water, create cleaning solutions. These tablets can be packaged in paper instead of plastic, reducing plastic waste significantly. Customers can reuse their existing bottles or opt for BlueLand's reusable \"forever\" bottles. Since then, the company has expanded its product line to include dishwasher tablets, laundry tablets, toilet bowl cleaners, and even body washes and face washes, all with the goal of eliminating single-use plastic packaging.

-BUSINESS IDEA- 2. Previous mobile app.

Before founding BlueLand, the speaker had experience with other startups. One was a mobile app launched during business school. While the specifics of the app aren\'t mentioned, it provided valuable entrepreneurial experience and built confidence in the speaker's ability to launch and run a business. This prior experience, along with insights from other successful startups, especially those led by women from Harvard Business School during the same period, fueled the speaker's drive to pursue entrepreneurship.

-BUSINESS IDEA- 3. Previous startup studio with a focus on direct to consumer products.

Before founding BlueLand, the speaker co-founded a startup studio with the goal of launching direct-to-consumer businesses in various niches. This studio operated on the premise that the shift to direct-to-consumer was still in its early stages and would disrupt traditional retail models. The speaker launched four different businesses through this studio over four years, gaining valuable insights into product development, marketing, and the challenges of rapid scaling. However, this experience also highlighted the importance of validating product-market fit before heavily investing in marketing.
