While I was reading some good articles I realized a great initiative called # pob-fund Friday and I have learned that it is better to give than to receive since the latter comes alone when we cultivate the first.
Hello today, after spending a while researching and reading, I found a story that caught my attention, the story of Sara Blakely.
WHO?
She is an American businesswoman born on February 27, 1971, as a child she wanted to be a lawyer but her final grades prevented it years later she began working as a queue organizer at an amusement park.

THE BEGINING OF EVERYTHING!
She had been saving for a long time, she managed to have $ 5000 which she invested and decided to create her own girdle for women, a girdle that will not be marked on clothes since that was a problem that everyone had, and she also created it with the purpose that be more comfortable and do not tighten so much, the truth is this idea came from the uniforms that he used in his work.
And well, from all this, "Spanx" was obtained, her great invention and what would take her to the top.
INCREASE
Honestly, she did not have enough money to pay for advertising for which she had to use another method to let people know about her product.
She put on the clothes herself and modeled them in front of other girls who might be interested in buying.
TODAY IS THE DAY!!
Some time later Sara steeled herself and decided to send a sample of her product to Oprah Winfrey who showed it to a host of a program who later began to make it public before others and that is how Sara achieved what started as a small investment it will end up being a success.

THE NOW!
Now the Spanx company is valued at more than a billion dollars is recognized in more than 37 countries is now working on a line of products for men.
It is not known what will happen in the future but it is known that we can go very far with perseverance and faith regardless of the obstacles.
Greetings thank you!!
@venpromundo.pob, did you miss this one?
ah I also want to reiterate that I read about the pob-fund initiative but apparently I did not correctly put the 50% beneficiary but I plan to upload a screenshot sending 50% to pob-fund when I receive the payment of this publication, I hope the next Friday do it right!
No way, i'm here
Neat story and not a click bait photo after all.
Thanks in the past, I had seen this girl on the Shark tank show, so when you find her story feel free to share it, these kinds of situations inspire me a lot, and if I add to that how much I enjoy reading the content that I can read here, time flies by! thanks for the comment and the support greetings!
Very interesting story, so crazy how sometimes you only think about something that would make you feel better and in the end it also works for so many people!
I can see that you are very interested in the story of entrepreneurs that made it (seen from you last 2 posts) that makes me wonder if you are also thinking about becoming one. And for that matter, I think you should follow @fallingfowards, because he/she (Just realized that I don't know this) was doing a series on Business Development and maybe you would like to check it out.
Anyway, great to have you around here!
Keep posting and keep shining!
I am a young girl and these types of stories not only inspire me a little but remind me daily that if they achieved it, with clear goals, determination, and eyes wide open, they can go far! The future is uncertain but if we can start as soon as possible in some cases it is profitable! thanks for the advice I'll take a look at that reference you mention!
