Designed, built, and launched a complete Kajabi course and coaching program from scratch — “EmpowHERed & Aligned: Your Midlife Reset Program.” Created all digital product assets including workbooks, reflection guides, and program materials entirely in Canva. Built the full course architecture, sales page, email sequences, and member community inside Kajabi. Handled every element independently from concept to launch — branding, design, copy, and delivery. This experience means I understand exactly what course creators and coaches need to bring a digital product to life.

Grew a women’s midlife empowerment brand from 90 to 26,000+ followers in four months using organic content strategy, ManyChat DM automations, and email list building, zero paid ads. Generated multiple viral posts reaching 1M+ views, with top content hitting 1.6M views and 99.6K saves on a single post. Built a highly engaged audience through consistent content, strategic hooks, and community-focused messaging. Simultaneously grew an email list so the audience was owned, not just rented. This is the exact strategy and system I bring to clients.

Independently published multiple books on Amazon KDP, including wellness journals, affirmation coloring books, daily health journals, parenting guides, and prompt books. Handled every part of the process myself: interior formatting, cover design in Canva, keyword research, category selection, and listing optimization. Every book is live, reviewed, and actively selling. This experience gives me firsthand knowledge of the full digital publishing process, from concept to live product, which I bring directly to authors and course creators I support as a VA.

Built and launched two Etsy shops completely from scratch, Kristin Nelson Custom (print-on-demand custom apparel and gifts) and Revival Maven Co. (print-on-demand faith-based niche store). Handled everything independently: brand identity and logo design in Canva, full store setup, SEO-optimized product listings, keyword research using Erank and RankHero, product positioning, pricing strategy, and customer communication. Both shops taught me the full lifecycle of ecommerce, from niche selection and branding to driving traffic and converting buyers.
