Barbara Corcoran's credits include straight D's in high school and college and 20 jobs by the time she turned 23. It was her next job that would make her one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country: She borrowed $1,000 and quit her job as a waitress to start a tiny real estate company in New York City. Over the next 25 years Barbara would transform that $1,000 loan into a $5 billion real estate business, building the largest and best-known brand in the business.

Lori Greiner started with one idea and turned it into a multi-million-dollar international brand. She is regarded as one of the most prolific inventors of retail products, having created over 500 products, and currently holds over 120 U.S. and international patents. Lori can tell instantly if a product is a "hero or a zero," and this is clearly shown through her many thriving investments and a 90% success rate on her new items launched. She's also well known for her impeccable negotiating skills and her uncanny ability to know and identify emerging brands and invest in them.
