I believe that the best new product ideas solve a problem by using a unique and creative approach. Oftentimes, we know that a problem exists just from our own daily lives. However, the challenge is in figuring out how to solve the problem using your own unique voice. Emmaly has embodied this approach in her creation of Eba Totes and I wanted to learn more about her product development process.

- Be honest with your customers. Realize that people want to know who you are. They really want to know who they're buying from. Emmaly's philosophy is based on creating something that's eco friendly and made in the U.S.
