Female Startup Club Fave Hits: Reaching “overnight success” after 10 years, with Angela Scott (Part 1)
Today’s episode is a real goodie, I’m speaking to Angela Scott about her namesake brand From The Office of Angela Scott.
Founded a decade ago for Women Who Mean Business™ The Office of Angela Scott is more than just a luxury footwear brand, it represents the collective power of all women. A perfect trifecta, The Office of Angela Scott is a woman-owned, woman-run and woman-funded brand designed to pave the way for professional women, one beautiful shoe at a time.
The lightbulb moment hit Angela being surrounded by a lot of men in business, footwear had always been her statement piece but she was seeing her heels get in the way of what she wanted to become as it was simply harder to get things done. With a clear vision in mind, Angela set off to produce her designs in Italy before pitching door-to-door in every little boutique she set her sights on. Ten years and a 10 million dollar business later, we reflect on the highs and lows of this journey, appreciating the true inflection point just two years ago where everything just started to click.
But Angela’s story isn’t one of overnight success, she’s been grinding away and she shares so openly and honestly that it was only 2 years ago she felt a true inflection point where everything started to just click.
This is an episode about that relentless pursuit and conviction about what you’re doing in the world and why you’re doing it. We speak about how she’s funded the business and why it’s important to ask for help and turn to the people around you, and some of her key learnings from along the way. Like the power of truly understanding your customer and putting them at the forefront of everything you do.
Let’s get straight into it!
