Authenticity, not glamour, led an entrepreneur to $225M | Stacey S. Schieffelin | TEDxFultonStreet

Описание: This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. A true believer in empowering women to live the life they dream, successful entrepreneur Stacey is as approachable as the girl next door.

In this behind-the-scenes presentation, she shares the inside story of getting a business rolling on Direct Response Television, and how it wasn't her "model face" but her "real face" that propelled her brand into big business.

In addition to the business story, Stacey shares her knowledge about how to look and feel your beautiful best every day. For her, putting your best and fabulous face forward is a sign of self-respect, not vanity.

She believes every woman deserves to have her own customized and personalized blueprint that maps out her unique path to bold beauty and self-confidence.
