About the Author

All of my life, I’ve had huge dreams and goals. From the moment I submitted my last resignation letter to now, it’s been an amazing, joy-filled, and challenging journey learning how to build a business I love. As a mom, I wanted desperately to help provide for my family and achieve crazy financial and lifestyle dreams… while being there for my kids. I wanted “it all” so to speak. But the truth is (and maybe you can relate to this!), if I’m going to take some of that precious focus and time away from my kids, then it should be for something that is meaningful… Work that I can do efficiently to fit around my life, and work that I am passionate about.



I’ve done lots of crazy things for work. Design. Writing. Social media. Websites. Coaching. Events. Marketing. You name it, I’ve probably tried it (or at least thought about it!). Starting and growing businesses is in my DNA. Along the way, I’ve worked in businesses that never paid the bills but were a heckuva lot of fun. I’ve learned things on purpose, and on accident. I’ve started businesses that created jobs for other women. I’ve spent too much and too little time working. I’ve skipped out on a lot of sleep. I’ve made 4 figures and 6 figures. I’ve become a regular at coffee shops and libraries (hello, good internet!), but for the most part, my office is my couch. And now, I’m doing this crazy little dance – just trying to balance this mom thing, and this working thing. I currently make a full-time income between client work and writing, and I fit it all around my life. If this is where your heart is at, I want to teach you how to do this, too.

Editorial Reviews

This is the first book I have read on the subject, I have researched about becoming a social media manager in the past and have read countless blog posts but this is honestly the only resource I have come across that makes me feel like this career is achievable.

Amazon - Rob P

This book has so much incredible content. The author, Mara, takes a lot of big, scary information and puts it into easy to digest information with so much structure and supportive resources. This is an amazing resource not only for those who want to be social media managers, but also for those who want to do a better job of managing their own social media.

Love this book! Easy to read, and chock full of great information! I was easily able to take notes and implement ideas. I love that she explains what to do, and then gives the real life example of how she does it in her business. I keep referencing back to it and recommending it :)
