Her journey commenced humbly, with her setting up her business from the corner of her room without a website or a concrete plan. Initially starting with zero followers and a lone post on Instagram, Monique struggled to navigate the platform's potential, often prioritizing client work over her own marketing endeavors. It was only after she decided to fully commit to leveraging Instagram that her business skyrocketed within a mere 18 months. Eschewing conventional tactics, Monique steered away from elaborate technology, websites, extensive email lists, constant posting, or complex ad campaigns, choosing instead to focus on positioning herself as a leading figure in her field and creating content that magnetizes her ideal clientele, predominantly on Instagram. Her approach, devoid of intricate strategies and conventional wisdom, challenges norms and emphasizes authenticity and targeted content over traditional marketing methods.Find out more about Monique Website: https://thesocialista.com.au/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thesocialista_/Join the Dream Out Loud Facebook Communityhttps://bit.ly/2RSBKVFFollow me on Instagram herehttps://www.Instagram.com/morgantnelsonSubscribe to my YouTube channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@morgantnelson
