At 23, I coined the term "Interactive Candy Toy" in a WSJ interview and helped create the SpinPop, the "Worlds First Interactive Candy Toy". Buyers weren't sure what it was...Candy buyers wouldn't buy it...and toy buyers wouldn't buy it. It was only when I branded it as "interactive candy toy" (candy first) that we achieved wide mass, drug, and c-store.
