In this podcast Lyndsey Young, The Queen of Easy Green, talks about how she is building a business around her first invention Count-on-it labels, a simple yet effective idea which allows you to label food so you know what date you opened it. This helps prevent unnecessary waste. Following on from this, Lyndsey is now working on her second invention and has created a shop to sell both her own, and other peoples Easy Green products. Lyndsey talks about how she is generating publicity for her business and also gives some great information on how to get free advice and help with your product invention.
Lyndsey has also won a bursary from Creative Leicestershire, which has enabled her to have her new website created.
