Mom Pens Her Success Story
Kim Lavine drives a 1997 Mercury Mountaineer and her husband, Dave, a 1994 Tempo.
Her desk in the basement of their Grand Haven Township home often is surrounded by toy guns and swords courtesy of her sons, Dylan, 10, and Ryan, 8.
Twinkie, the family cat, will crawl on her desk and drink her water while she works, and when her sons get home from school, “It’s chaos.”
Sounds like the life of a millionaire, right? Right.
Lavine, 48, is the president of Green Daisy Inc., a company she started in 2001 that now is valued at close to $10 million.
In her new book, “Mommy Millionaire: How I Turned My Kitchen Table Idea into a Million Dollars and How You Can, Too!” Lavine spends 330 pages detailing just how difficult it was.
The book, published by St. Martin’s Press, is a combination of “exhaustive business resources” and her personal story of launching her business out of financial need — all while keeping her family the No. 1 priority.
