The Spot-light is on: Burpie Baby Mess Kit!

Who is Burpie Baby Mess Kit and what is so unique about your product?
The burpie baby mess kit is the perfect way to keep baby's layette items tidy and organized in a snap! Not only is it a complete three piece Layette set for baby, but our exclusive burpie is capable of easily keeping coordinating layette items together in baby's wardrobe for true Fashion on-the-go! Our burpie can also be used to organize the diaper bag too, by keeping your choice of essential diaper changing items readily accessible.

This layette set is not only fun and fashionable, but it is designed to keep baby's stuff more organized, help you save time and keep that messy baby clean and cute.


Where are you located?
We have been in Boise, Idaho for nearly a year now, originally from Sacramento, California!

How did you come up with your business name?
As unbelievable as it may be, the name did not start out as Burpie Baby. Originally, it was Dirty Baby but then I found that another company was already using that name and since I wanted to have my own unique presence, I decided to change it! I eventually decided on Burpie Baby and realized that it was actually a much more fitting name for our product, as it is all about the Burpie :)


When and why did you decide to start your own business?
(I started my business) approximately three years ago, but I have been a children's clothing designer for much, much longer! That is one of my "day" jobs :)


How did you get started?
Well I was making layette sets, as a gift for a relative, as I didn't usually make this type of item. The mess kit was just sort of naturally "born". I didnt even realize at the time, what I had actually done or the impact it may have for myself or other parents! After a few days, it finally dawned on me that I really had something Special. I decided to give something else as a gift, and kept the "prototype" of my newly discovered creation so I could mull it over more, but I was so very excited and passionate about the idea from the very start.


What motivates you to keep your business going?
Well actually, just the excitement I feel when I see what a great product this really is and how very helpful it can be to others by sharing it! I just love that this product can help make the little things just that much easier. As a parent, every little moment counts. It is very much like a fourth "baby" to me. I am that passionate about it. What mom doesn't like cute matching things for baby that are fashionable and fun, easy to use, help save time & organize all that baby stuff? Our baby mess kits do all of this, not to mention they are a reusable product made in the USA by moms, yeah!
Do you have a particular product that's unique, a best seller, and/or that you're promoting on your site?
Right now, the Original Burpie Baby Mess kit, which was the first set I came up with is the best seller. It is the three piece layette. Sock monkey print is very popular, so we have several different ones. All of the items include our exclusive convertible Burpie, and we also now have a two piece basic set and also a deluxe gift set that includes a coordinating onesie!

I have another great item I will be adding soon to the website and I am very interested in coming out with an organic line of baby "mess kits".


How do you advertise your business? Which methods proved successful/effective?
I use webrings, in-store boutique displays, banners, directory listings, blogs, product reviews, adwords and word of mouth. Adwords are very effective and I am excited about seeing the results of blogging, as I am just now getting into the blog scene!


How do you juggle family and work at home?
Oh my, well I love, love anything that saves me time! Although I am an avid "cook from scratch" kind of gal, there are those days where Schwann's teriyaki boneless wings sure come in handy -and they were even delivered to my door LOL. Did I mention that our baby mess kits can help parents save time? ha ha


What advice would you give to moms seeking to become a WAHM?
Do it! Stop just thinking about it, don't mull over all the many reasons why you can't start. Start small, something you know you can succeed with now.
Then later, as you build confidence, things that once seemed impossible become attainable.
