Roar Ambition runs Company-Wide Workshop on Female Entrepreneur, Sara Blakely

In an attempt to inspire more female entrepreneurs, Liverpool-based direct marketing agency Roar Ambition has conducted a recent company-wide workshop on Sara Blakely, an entrepreneur who first made a name for herself in the direct sales industry selling fax machines door-to-door.

Roar Ambition: Opportunities

Blakely notoriously started her first business with only $5,000 and can now boast the accolade of the youngest self-made female billionaire within the USA, as the founder of the billion-dollar company Spanx. Roar Ambition’s workshop was designed to focus on lessons of tenacity that can be learned from the businesswoman, and obstacles tackled throughout her career.

Refuse to take no for an answer

Blakely was notoriously asked a series of questions when facing manufacturers, 1/ Who are you? 2/ Who are you with? 3/ Who is backing you? The aspiring entrepreneur was adamant to remain faithful to her brand, answering; “Sara Blakely.” Despite friends and family advising her to give up, Blakely refused. Roar Ambition urges their own collective of aspiring entrepreneurs to look to this lesson of determination as inspiration on a smaller scale during their own tribulations in the sector.

Every individual has the ability to figure it out

In an exclusive interview with Forbes, Blakely described how upon the venture she had no previous experience in patenting products, manufacturing, marketing or product development. The entrepreneur advises others to look at such obstacles as a learning curve. Roar Ambition resonates with this ideology, often incorporating such lessons into their business model, encouraging professionals to seek guidance from one-to-one mentorship opportunities at the company.

“Sara Blakely is a huge source of inspiration for professionals at the beginning of their entrepreneurial journeys, specifically young female businesswomen that are eager to make a statement in the sector. Her start in direct sales is an aspect that resonates with our contractors, providing a sense of relatability,” stated a spokesperson for Roar Ambition.

Roar Ambition is the Liverpool-based direct marketing agency that frequently runs inspirational workshops for their aspiring entrepreneurs. The business is eager to inspire female businesswomen in the industry in order to create future business owners.
