Adeline Marshall, absolutely related our host Sarah Marshall (daughter), is founder, owner, CEO and everything else of Adeline’s Bunny Puffs. Adeline’s freeze-dried berries and candy are sure to be a big hit, as is this young, vivacious mature-beyond-her-years entrepreneur. The name? Well, Adeline loves bunnies and when the fruits are put in the freezer, they puff up. So naturally, puff up, bunnies…you get the picture. And the logo, which you really need to see, continues the puffed bunny theme as well. An aspiring seven-year-old second grader, Adeline is most dedicated to her startup company and right now the Skittle candies seem to be the current favorite. In fact, two of Adeline’s best friends are “obsessed” with the Bunny Puff Skittles and ask for them every time they come over to Adeline’s house. Adeline gives them free bags of the candy because they are her friends, plus it’s marketing technique to get product trial as well. The brand building doesn’t stop with product and packaging either. Adeline has built her own vending machine (OK, it’s made out of cardboard, but heck, it’s a vending machine) with a saran wrap front and toilet paper rolls for dispenser buttons. When the friends come over, they like to use the vending machine to get their Bunny Puffs. Probably the debit card slot is next 😊. There are many flavors of Bunny Puffs and Adeline’s favorites are the berries, including triple crown blackberries. For the non-friend, paying customers, Adeline charges four dollars per bag and her most profitable product is probably the raspberry Puffs. When at the Farmers’ Market, Adeline cannot sell the candy Puffs, only the berries. At the Night Market, it’s the opposite, where she sells only the candies. Fellow entrepreneur, if you want inspiration, if you want feel-good, if you want proof the young generation is capable and strong, tune in to this young person. This podcast is an absolute MUST HEAR.
