Before her success, Rachel always knew she wanted to build something. She wanted something entertaining and creative to get people excited about social media marketing while also allowing her to have flexibility, independence, and growth. This meant she had to try a lot of different things before finding the ideal fit. When the epidemic hit, she saw an opportunity and founded 'Making Business Social', a company that lets businesses outsource their marketing and social media.

So she switched focus.Today, she shows small business owners exactly how to do their own social media, without becoming overwhelmed. Her tools help them take control of their marketing so that they have the strategy and confidence to demonstrate their sector expertise, unlock the full potential that social media offers, and get the best results from their online presence.
