✨ Summary

What if the thing holding your business back isn't your strategy… it is your fear of being seen?

In this episode of She's Making Millions, Taylor sits down with PR agency owner, multi-business entrepreneur and mum of four, Nikki Milne. Nikki left school at 16, bought a near-bankrupt salon in a wealthy suburb, worked nights in a bar to keep the doors open… and turned it into a highly profitable, in-demand business she later sold.

From there she:

👉 Built a women-in-business platform on Instagram to 40,000 followers in a few months and turned it into a paid media machine

👀 Accidentally launched a PR agency when a luxury car brand asked her to "do their PR" (and she had to Google what PR even meant)

🧐Pivoted during COVID by teaching free social media classes on Instagram that led to a $60k course launch in one week

🎯Built a thriving agency and personal brand while raising four kids

Inside, we cover:

📌The "repel to attract" marketing principle and why your brand NEEDS people who don't like you if you want real momentum 📌How to separate your business brand and personal brand so you can have strong opinions without risking your ability to sell or exit your company 📌Why referrals (and especially BNI-style dependency) are a dangerous foundation for growth and what to build instead 📌The simple branding upgrades that make premium clients think, "I trust her" in 3 seconds flat (website, socials, photography, positioning) 📌How to choose mentors who've actually built real businesses (not just passed a coaching certificate or written a uni textbook)

Nikki has spent 20+ years in business, scaled multiple companies, worked with luxury brands and high-profile clients, and navigated everything from haters to literal stalkers while continuing to grow. This isn't theory; it's lived experience.

If you're ready to stop blending in and start branding like the woman who's building a sellable, scalable company, press play now and share this episode with the boldest business bestie in your phone.
