The creator of Asian Founded is turning love for her community and creativity into sales for Asian-founded businesses -- one owner seeing a 500% increase.

"Oh like 'we sold out' or 'your video is the best performing video we've had on our account,'" said Esther Lee, Asian Founded creator.

She's looking to create awareness and a one-stop shop. Sunglasses, wine, candles, sparkling water -- Lee has an entire spreadsheet.
