I was watching a documentary the other day and I didn't know that Oprah had such an impact on many businesses. Her followers (the audience) literally buy what she suggests on her show and any business that appears on Oprah gets this fabulous effect called the Oprah Effect. Your business is guaranteed to succeed after Oprah markets your product or service via her show.
Do YOU have a passion for something? If so, what is it? It might be the next big story we bump into on TV.
Before we go any further, to see a quick introduction of the Oprah Effect please watch this YouTube Video:

Okay now, back to Lisa Prise story:
Beginning with a love for experimenting with fragrances, Brooklyn native Lisa Price started making products in her kitchen as gifts for friends back in 1993. Mixing essential oils and natural moisturizers, she homemade unique elixirs with love and attention to detail. She named her company in honor of her mother, to acknowledge her support and inspiration.
A well-known record executive spread the word about Lisa’s luxurious bath, body and hair care products, prompting the transition from creating concoctions in the kitchen for a select few to successfully reaching customers across the country via mail order and the web. Even though her products have earned a cult following – they're a staple on the shelves of celebrity bathrooms
