Kaylin Marcotte started Jiggy in November 2019, with the aim of elevating the work of fellow women and sharing her go-to stress reliever with consumers. Every Jiggy puzzle features original artwork by an emerging female artist, and the company shares profits with the artists behind its frameable puzzles. In this episode, Kaylin shares her tips for business success, explains why it is important for entrepreneurs to seek ways to disrupt their categories by doing things differently, and talks about how to build an audience.
“I wanted to elevate and modernize the classic puzzle,” says Kaylin Marcotte, who is indeed disrupting the category with her company Jiggy, which she founded in November of 2019. Even before the pandemic, she wanted to bring her number one stress reliever to people in a new way. Each puzzle features original frameable works by emerging female artists with whom the company shares its profits. A media darling, she recently appeared on ABC’s Shark Tank and has an incredible story to share.
