  • How a Law School Grad Became a Business Marketing Superstar featuring Brandi Mowles

    Brandi Mowles is known for helping her clients earn $10,000 a month from launching their businesses and consulting. And Brand Mowles needs to be fixed as an attorney. Find out how Brandi Mowles changed from wanting to become an attorney to working part-time and creating a million-dollar business.

    Why Law School

    After double-majoring in history and international relations as an undergraduate student, Brandi Mowles attended law school to practice international law. Brandi changed her mind when she began thinking about the bar exam.

    Brandi Mowles attended law school in Alabama and rarely mentions her law degree, even though she enjoyed the competitiveness of law school. Brandi Mowles is confident that she did not miss out on anything by not taking the bar exam.

    What Can You Do With a Law Degree?

    Brandi Mowles explains that law school gave her the foundational knowledge to become an entrepreneur, understand contracts, and mentor other business owners. Brandi explains that law school also taught Brandi to stop comparing herself to others.

    Lawyer Side Hustles

    Brandi Mowles created an education and marketing business that teaches other business owners to succeed. As an advertising strategist and business mentor, Brandi Mowles assists business owners in launching online courses or memberships with dynamic Facebook and Instagram ads. Brandi has so much experience in this space because she launched her ad strategy business to make over $200,000 a year as a new mother and wife.

    Brandi has launched online courses for podcast managers, YouTube managers, and virtual assistants to teach business owners how to serve, soar and scale their businesses. But the side hustles continue beyond launching businesses. Brandi Mowles also serves as a business mentor, where Brandi assists service-based businesses in scaling to become profitable without hiring a team.

    Brandi Mowles hosts the podcast, Serve Scale Soar, where Brandi makes it easy for freelancers and business owners to scale their businesses. The one thing that freelancers need is more time to research, find, and decide what information is valuable or useless for their business. Brandi Mowles is sharing information, systems, and marketing along with how to choose a client. These lessons are mandatory listening and will inspire any freelancer or entrepreneur to tune in.
