About Maddie Rae's Slime Glue
Maddie Rae’s Slime Glue
ABOUT:
Maddie Rae is a 13-year-old entrepreneur from Fairfield, CT. Like many other kids her age, she was swept up in the massive trend of DIY slime and fell in love with making her own recipes. She first learned about making slime from her friends at school and soon became inspired by YouTube and Instagram accounts that are devoted to slime making.
In March, 2017 she launched Maddie Rae’s Slime Glue after she had trouble finding glue to make her slime creations as countless stores and websites were sold out of white and clear glue. Madison took matters into her own hands and pleaded with her father, Howard Greenspan, owner of a consumer products company to help her make her own brand of glue that is used specifically for slime. Since its launch, thousands of gallons of Maddie Rae’s Slime Glue have been sold and she has expanded the line to offer slime jars, slime coloring, custom glitter and microbeads, and many more accessories that will be debuting throughout 2019. She says her favorite part of developing her own line of slime glue is having access to unlimited glue and being able to test the slime dyes and pigments.
Maddie believes that what she has learned most about owning her own company is that it takes a lot of hard work and devotion.
On November 4th, 2017, Maddie and her team attended PlayFair New York, where they broke the Guinness World Record for the Largest Slime. It took an army of nearly 100 people and about 90 minutes to pour and mix ingredients in a large pool. The result: 13,820 pounds of slime! She hopes her story encourages other kids to follow their dreams and pursue their great ideas and not doubt themselves.
She recently kicked that determination into overdrive! Not only is she an innovative teen entrepreneur, she is now the creator of the first-ever, and world’s largest slime convention, Maddie Rae’s Slime Bash!
Created as a means to celebrate all things slime, the wild success of the event created international buzz on social media platforms and within the media. This unexpected fame prompted the planning of Maddie Rae’s Slime Bash 2, a large-scale event, boasting over 7,500 ticketholders and known as the largest slime convention in the world! Maddie Rae intends to capitalize on the thriving slime community by taking Slime Bash on the road, with many additional events planned later this year and into 2020!
