Entrepreneur Name: Emily Butler

Business Name: More Than The Reel, Alabama, United States

In the world of social media, our self-image is limited to the number of likes and comments we get on our Instagram posts. How we feel about ourselves no longer matters. Alabama teen Emily Butler wants to change this and has turned this into her business goal.

She founded “More than a reel” an online clothes store. Its main motto is to make people value themselves more than social media likes. T-shirts printed with the word ‘More’ will make people stop and ask questions about what does it mean and this will lead to conversation. Emily believes that conversation has the power to change minds. She calls those T-shirts “Conversation Starter Crewneck,”.

Butler is a student of YEA! Or Young Entrepreneurs academy where her business got her a spot in America’s Next Top Young Entrepreneur contest. The competition will help young entrepreneurs like Butler to launch their ideas in the business world. With an impressive resume, having been named a “Distinguished Young Woman” of Lauderdale County and being selected for Youth Leadership Shoals Emily will compete in the semi-final round.
