How This Bookstagrammer Makes Six Figures Without Brand Deals
When publishers wouldn't pay for her bookish content on Instagram (free books don't pay bills!), Hayley Solano got creative and built a literary empire that goes far beyond monthly discussions.
After growing her #bookstagram to 40,000 followers, Hayley launched The Enchanted Book Club. She took her love of books and turned it into this vibe where classic book lovers can connect, no matter how busy life gets.
For fifteen bucks a month (or $150 if you go annually), you get access to this bookish world... and she has 800 members!
