Ever have a great idea you know will make money? An idea that has the potential to grow into something really, really big? What do you do then? Mary Kay Ash, the founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics, said this: “Ideas are a dime a dozen. People who implement them are priceless.” Teresa Denham took her idea and ran with with it.

She had created gloves with pompoms sewn onto the ends of the fingers as an inexpensive way to show team spirit. She turned that invention into a million-dollar business.
