　　They decided to __8__the business Jibbitz.While Sheri designed，Rich strategized.They decided to sell the charms online.

　　Six months later，in February 2006，Sheri was doing so well that Rich left his business to work with her __9__.She was making hundreds of Jibbitz to order，by hand，by herself，in their basement.
