Shear Intimates, the creator of the hugely successful “Ahh Bra” has beat out over 62,000 other products to garnish the coveted “HSN’s Best Product” award for 2012.
Sales of over 25 million units spread over a total of 34 different countries has also helped the company earn the title as one of the “Top 3 Fastest Growing Women-Owned Companies” in the country.
All of this achievement is due to the hard work of one visionary: Rhonda Shears. Prior to her contributions to the intimate apparel market, Shears could be seen on TV as the host of “USA: Up All Night”. An ex-beauty queen, Shears also made a name for herself on the comedy circuit after being discovered by the legendary Bob Hope.
Her efforts have paid off as the “Ahh Bra” has not only become the #1 selling bra on the planet, but net profits from the sale of the bra brought in $72 million in 2011.
Shears latest endeavors include working with a group of up-and-coming people over the age of 40. The group, called “Boomerpreneurs”, work with Shears to reinvent their careers and their goals. The team has become so noteworthy that CNN Money recently released a statement calling them “a force to reckon with”.
