Kelly Korbonsi of Atea Kids
Hi Kelly! Tell us about your businesses.
Atea Kids started in September 2005. I started Atea Kids to venture into the children's products industry. We currently offer two products: Toddler Timeout Mat and the Drop Stop. The Toddler Timeout is a discipline mat used for children ages 2-8 years old. The benefit of the mat is the portability and it provides consistency, both are key in making the time out method
successful. The mat also comes with a digital timer that can clip onto the mat.
The Drop Stop is a strap that attaches to sippy cups, bottles, soft toys, etc. It can be used when the child is in a high chair, stroller, anything with a seat belt. So, when the child "launches" their bottle, for example, it does not fall to the ground.
We have also started to sell product from qualified vendors such as educational books and musical storybook dolls.
Do you have any recent news, products, a new launch, freebies, etc.
We have been featured in several newspapers lately which is exciting. We have new products being announced summer 2006. We will begin a monthly drawing for free product.
What are your absolute favorite products or resources you can't live without in your business (or have helped you the most)?
Networking, networking, networking. I have met so many other mom-inventors who are either starting out or have broken down the doors and found success.
Without talking to them, I wouldn't be as far as I am.
What's your best advice for someone just starting out in online business?
I just picked up the phone and called other people in my industry and asked to interview them. I found talking to people who have experience and learning through them is priceless information.
