Elyce and Nathan Billany are the wife-and-husband duo who will be on Shark Tank<\/a><\/em> this week. Elyce and Nathan are entrepreneurs, and the minds behind byo\u00f3t swimwear<\/a>. Elyce is the main inventor, but her husband Nathan appeared alongside her on the hit ABC show. To learn more about the successful couple, keep reading below for five fun facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who are Elyce and Nathan Billany?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1) Elyce Billany is the one who came up with the idea for byo\u00f3t swimwear. When she struggled with a bathing suit on a getaway, she wanted to fix the problem. Enter: byo\u00f3t, easy to maneuver swimsuits featuring button designs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) The couple are from Le Claire, Iowa. Le Claire sits close to 170 miles outside of Des Moines. While their manufacturer for byo\u00f3t is in New York City, Elyce and Nathan operate their headquarters in Iowa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Elyce and Nathan previously operated a natural soap company. So, it’s safe to say they are business-minded people. But, their first jobs? Parents! They’ve got an adorable baby together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) The concept for their company came about in 2018, and Elyce began a Kickstarter<\/a> campaign. One day after her launch of the brand, she’d raised 3,000 dollars. She obviously met her 30,000 dollar goal because a little over two years later, she’s operating her business full-time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5) Another fun fact? Elyce was a pageant girl! She was crowned Miss Clinton County in 2010. She and her husband Nathan even emceed the pageant in 2018<\/a>. No wonder she originally started to model her own designs! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
