#153: From two failed businesses and a typical nine to five, Ariel wanted more for herself and to live like a millionaire. She transformed her life by learning how to scale social media monetization and grow a loyal following becoming her own testimonial for her business. Ariel grew her social media by 150,000 followers in 10 months – credibility check.

As a result, Ariel persisted in launching her business Monetize Your Social Media in 2020, generating $500,000 in revenue in only 12 months. Would you believe me if I told you it all started with an e-book? Ariel’s first offering was a $20 e-book all about how to grow your following on Instagram, making $100,000 in 90 days. The best part was growing her social media following simultaneously using the tips from her e-book, demonstrating the power it held to her audience.

Now the 27-year-old, Virginia-based businesswoman has several online courses, masterclasses, and e-books that focus on helping budding entrepreneurs monetize their Instagram. Ariel’s mission is to teach other hustlers & entrepreneurs her strategies to make money in the digital space.
