We like to think of the Bucket List Family that ranks third in our list of most successful online businesses of 2016 is more like a successful family story, but we should definitely pay more attention to the business skills they have. They call themselves a Gee family and their online business fame is only growing since they started. Settie and Garret are a young married couple with two children and with one large bucket list. They decided to travel around the world with their children in order to start a family tradition and memories and just share kindness around the world. They are perfect I know, but before I continue with their current successful online business we should tell you that Garret is the founder of the Scan app that he sold to Snapchat. However they decided that the money they earned from the app will be untouched during their adventures. Their YouTube videos and pictures on Instagram are so mesmerizing that at one point you have to ask yourself how do they do it if they don’t spend the money they got from Snapchat? To fund their expedition they sold all their belongings, cars, furniture, etc. Their adventures became so popular they created a huge fan base who patiently wait for weekly videos. So the Gee family being the business family they are came up with great idea of selling head bands to the world. The Adventure Band comes in 5 colors and fans are obsessed with it and we don’t blame them. A portion of the money they earn is being donated to support Safe in School campaign with Effect.org, meanwhile the other portion of the money will fund their future adventures. Now that’s what we call a brilliant successful online business. When you visit their blog and Instagram try not to be jealous as we were.
