Our guest today on Niche Pursuits is a very special and inspiring guest.

Her name is Michelle Schroeder-Gardner and she started a personal finance blog to share tips on how she paid off $40,000 in student debt in 7 months.

She knew nothing about blogging - and even started her blog on Blogspot. She even admits in the interview that she still isn't too savvy with SEO and only gets around 20% of her traffic from it...

But following her strategy has made her a self-made millionaire!

Two years after starting her blog she was making around $10,000 a month. After 4 ½ years, she made $50,000 a month, and after 5 years, she earned $100,000 a month. Since she started, she has made more than $5 million.

Now she travels around the world with her family on a sailboat!

And today she's here to share all the great details about how she did it all!

She has some amazing monetization techniques absolutely plus:

  • What inspired her to get started
  • How she diversifies her income
  • Her strategies for growing her email list
  • How to craft a good email
  • How much time she spends on her blog at the moment
  • Michelle’s greatest accomplishment
  • Her favorite tools
  • The biggest mistake she’s made

Quick question for ya:

If you could get an SEO content team overnight…

Would you take it?
