David Barnett, a former philosophy professor, created PopSockets in his garage after knotting headphone wires inspired a simple, expandable circle.
He iterated hundreds of prototypes before finalizing the accordion mechanism that could stick to a phone.
A pivotal moment came when a campus encounter with middle schoolers helped prove demand for the product.
PopSockets achieved explosive growth by selling a single unit at $10 and showcasing its grip function clearly.
The product went viral via celebrities, schools, and promotional partnerships before major retailers lined up.
By 2018, PopSockets earned recognition as one of the fastest-growing US companies according to Inc.
Barnett emphasizes starting small and not quitting a day job until financially secure.
He relied on a fun, non-traditional Kickstarter approach to spread the word.
Retail success followed, with major partners like Walmart, Best Buy, and Apple expanding reach.
Today, PopSockets remains a major phone accessory with a lasting global footprint.
