The systems and automations that helped one mom scale her business to seven figures without sacrificing family time. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Michelle Gifford<\/a> first started her agency, she had one simple goal: help women turn their social media success into real business growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time, she had been a solopreneur for 18 years\u2014doing everything from photography, to dress making, to business strategy\u2014all while she and her husband were starting their family. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Michelle, each venture became a stepping stone to her growth as an entrepreneur and eventually led her to her true calling\u2014social media consulting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My clients were very Instagram savvy, but had no idea how to make that a part of their business,” said Michelle. “These women had so much to offer\u2014I knew I had to help them.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that intuition paid off. Over six years, Michelle built a seven-figure business with a 17-person team. She established herself as an Instagram and social media educator and expert, growing her following from 18,000 to nearly 250,000 followers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But perhaps most impressively, she’s done it all while never compromising on what matters most to her: family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s her story. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
