Part 3: CUTV News Host Jim Masters Welcomes Back Claudia Harvey - Dig It Apparel

Toronto, ON – Harvey is the co-founder and CEO of Dig It Apparel®, which specializes in manufacturing utility gloves for women that protect a woman’s nails in the garden and any DIY project. Dig It’s industrial design patented Pillow-Top Protector™ sits on-top of a lady’s fingernail to inhibit dirt and debris from getting to nails.

Within six weeks of launching, Dig It had drawn interest from 42 independent retailers across Canada. With a viable concept and product, and proven sales to back it up, Harvey appeared on Dragons’ Den, Canada’s version of Shark Tank, where she partnered with investor Kevin O’Leary to expand the company into big box stores like The Home Depot Canada and Lowe's.

While Dig It’s Dragons' Den appearance represented a pivotal point in Harvey’s life and business, the experience convinced her she had something to say beyond talking about her product. She wanted to reach other aspiring women entrepreneurs to talk about work-life balance, overcoming fear, overcoming trepidation, and strategic thinking for how to start a company and balance your life.

Nine years from the start of Dig It Apparel, Harvey hasn’t let up. By learning from the best she’s transformed from “pitcher” to “investor” and invests in other businesses. Harvey shares her story from the stage and speaks internationally while recently sharing events with other notables in their field such as Tony Robbins, Pitbull, Mark Victor Hansen to name a few.  She inspires and motivates others to follow their path and personal definition of success.
