Designing your Instagram does not need to take up all of your time and you don't need a million followers (or even thousands) to book a ton of clients.

We only have seconds for people to decide if they are going to book you. The good thing is that curating your Instagram page does not need to look forced or take up all of your time!

And, she creates it all without having to leave the house!
Anna also takes us through how she gets brand deals without even pitching!
