With just $5,000 and an idea, Spanx founder Sara Blakely went from selling fax machines door-to-door to launching an apparel company that became a global sensation. With Spanx, she not only invented a product that women around the world now love, but she also reinvented an entire product category. By 2012, her bootstrapping had paid off; she became the world’s youngest female self-made billionaire.
She’s also been named one of Time magazine’s most influential people, appeared on “Rebel Billionaire,” and served as a guest judge on “Shark Tank.” Through the Sara Blakely Foundation, she’s helped provide women with education and entrepreneurial training, and now she’s sharing her journey as an entrepreneur, her heartfelt advice, and her practical tools with you in her new MasterClass.
