À propos de cet audio

 Inspiring women to pursue their own colorful dreams, I'm Not Really a Waitress tells the story of how Suzi Weiss-Fischmann transformed a small dental supply company into a #1 beauty brand around the world

Today, OPI is known as a global beauty brand, famous for its trend-setting colors, unforgettable shade names, and celebrity collaborations with the biggest stars from film, television, music, and sports. But behind all the glamour is the little-known tale of OPI's unlikely origins-an intimate and inspiring story of a timid schoolgirl who arrives in this country with little money and no English and becomes the business leader and industry game-changer known worldwide as "Suzi, the First Lady of Nails."

In I'm Not Really a Waitress--titled after OPI's top-selling nail color--Suzi reveals the events that led her family to flee Communist Hungary and eventually come to New York City in pursuit of the American dream. She shares how those early experiences gave rise to OPI's revolutionary vision of freedom and empowerment, and how Suzi transformed an industry by celebrating the power of color-and of women themselves.

Much more interesting than I thought it would be. This is more than a book about the birth of a company… the creation of this brand is the reason you see vibrant nails around the globe today. If it wasn’t for OPI, would we still all be sporting pink, orange and red nails? Even those not interested in nail colour are probably well aware of the blues, purples, blacks and sparkles adorned the nails of women around them. A growing number of men too. Best story: before the brand was world famous, the founder/author was staying at a resort, and happened to be wearing an OPI jacket. When word got out the founder was present, she was swarmed by women across the spectrum, from elite guests to maids, crazy to meet her. The men were baffled. Definitely recommended.
