Sell thousands of necklaces to over 500 stores called SNAP CAPS ™ and begin to build a multi million dollar business M3 Girl Designs was recently featured on NBCs Tween Tycoons – SEE VIDEO!!!! Business is booming for Maddie Bradshaw, a crafty sixth grader who, in just under two years has turned a hobby into a lucrative and expanding national business. Along with her mom Diane and sister Margot, the M3 Girl Designs company is on the move. Selling 40000 of her necklaces last month in more than 500 stores nationwide, including Nordstrom and Kitson, the business M3 Girl Designs has grossed over 0000 in the first quarter of 2008, and SNAP CAPS ™ are the hottest accessory at retail.
