In this interview, the founders of Rinseroo, Lisa and Jake Lane, discuss how intellectual property (IP) protections like patents and copyrights played a critical role in saving their innovative rinsing device from knockoffs flooding the market. They share their journey of turning a simple idea into a multimillion-dollar business, their experience combating Chinese knockoffs with Amazon takedowns, and how tariffs have impacted their costs. Learn how this mother-son duo leveraged IP, teamwork, and persistence to achieve success, even securing a deal with Lori Greiner on Shark Tank.
