Where story meets strategy,
and success feels sustainable.
The Academy is for online entrepreneurs who are ready to package their story, attract their people, and grow with a marketing plan that’s simple, consistent, and sustainable.
JOIN THE MOVEMENTYou didn’t start your business to burn out.
You started it to create freedom.
Time freedom. Financial freedom. Creative freedom.
But right now? It feels more like:
- Constantly creating content with little return
- Feeling invisible online and unsure what to say
- Wondering if your offers even make sense
- Comparing your brand to everyone else's
You want to make money doing meaningful work without selling your soul or working 24/7.
That’s exactly what the Authentic Brand Builders Academy helps you do.
Unlock Your Authentic Brand
What if your story was your most powerful strategy?
You’ve tried batching content, setting up funnels, and following all the “shoulds.”
But if your business still feels scattered, inconsistent, or like it’s missing that deeper connection, you’re not alone.
The truth?
A brand rooted in soul, expressed through story, and backed by strategy, becomes unstoppable.
That’s the power of the Soul Meets Strategy Framework.
The Academy isn’t just about getting clients (though you’ll do that too).
It’s for entrepreneurs who want to build a community, lead with impact, and create a business that honors their vision and fuels their freedom, without losing themselves in the process.
With the Academy, you will…
-
Package your story so your message is clear and magnetic
-
Build systems that support growth without consuming your time
-
Attract your people with marketing that feels authentic and sustainable
-
Create offers and sales strategies that feel aligned and natural
-
Grow with consistency, so momentum doesn’t depend on your mood, schedule, or the algorithm
-
 Step into your brand's full potential by building a business that’s bigger than just you: a movement, a community, a legacy
Tiffany A.
"I've seen my email list grow 10x what it was. I have been able to launch two successful online courses. I've been able to show up every single day in the spaces where my business lives and not lose my mind creating content and that is a miracle in and of itself. "
Ciara G.
“I launched my business officially in January and I signed five one-to-one clients in my first month, and I've really put that down to the framework that Michelle teaches in marketing. You know the ideal client work and how to speak to our clients and benefits that they want to receive, the obstacles, the desires, and actually I've really seen that translate in person.”
The Academy is for entrepreneurs who want more than just clients; they want a community, a movement, and a legacy.
 It’s for the business owner who’s tired of trying to duct-tape strategies together, tired of posting every day with little return, and tired of wondering if they’re even on the right track.
Inside, you’ll learn how to package your story so your message is clear, build systems that support growth without stealing your time, and finally market and sell in a way that feels simple, consistent, and sustainable.
Because you didn’t start this business to spend every waking hour on social media.Â
You started it for freedom, for mornings that aren’t rushed, for afternoons spent with your kids or outdoors, for work that lights you up and still pays the bills.
With the Academy, you’ll have the clarity, structure, and support to create a business that fuels your life instead of consuming it.
Why the Academy Is Different
Most programs hand you recycled templates and tell you to “post more.”
They teach surface-level tactics without helping you make them work for your unique business.
The Academy is different.
Here, you’ll learn proven strategies and get the space to customize them.
To ask questions. To be heard. To refine and go deeper.Â
This is a space for real integration and real results, where clarity and strategy meet your story, your vision, and your way of doing business.
And inside the Academy, it feels like:
- Clarity replacing confusion
- Consistent momentum instead of constant hustle
- Your brand finally working for you
- Aligned strategy meeting real results
- Your confidence coming back
- Knowing you’re not doing this alone
After building a six-figure brand while traveling full-time, homeschooling my son, and shifting away from social media burnout, I realized something crucial: entrepreneurs need more than just information.
They need a space that supports their evolution.
I created the Authentic Brand Builders Academy because there wasn’t a space like this.
A space where strategy meets soul, where you’re not expected to fit into a template but invited to build something that’s truly yours.
This membership was born out of my desire to help entrepreneurs like you:
Package your story.
Attract your people.
Build a brand that grows with you.
And create a marketing + sales plan that’s consistent, simple, and sustainable
Your brand is a living, breathing thing, and it deserves ongoing care.
Get the Support Your Brand Deserves"When I enrolled, I had no clear direction in my business, what I was doing did not feel authentic to who I am and I was seriously thinking about just quitting and getting a 9-5 again. I took a chance on Michelle, having only seen her on Instagram and attending her webinar a week or so prior to singing up and I am so glad I did. I now have a clear idea of what I need my business to be now and what I want it to be in the future. The value, knowledge, and support far surpassed my expectations and I feel that the course is genuinely worth about three times the price Michelle charges."
- MELISSA
"I would recommend it 100% to anyone serious about creating a viable, authentic brand and business. It is full of amazing content and the "how to..." steps, that you need to start and build a brand and business. Michelle is amazing on her group calls and answers any and all questions every single time. Before starting with her, I didn't even have a website and in such a short time, I have doubled my rates and am now an Internationally Published, award-winning photographer in my field!!!"

“Michelle teaches online business in a realistic and pragmatic way, which is helpful when you're focused on how to strategically build a business to create a life of freedom. There is no fluff or unimportant stuff - it's just practical, proven and effective strategies to help you market your business online!”
Christine D.
"The motivation and support are amazing. I personally have been all over the place, narrowing my niche, changing my niche, changing my offers, my pricing- and at each step, Michelle or Delana reach out and offer guidance and next steps."
The Brandmerry Soul Meets Strategy Framework:
The Academy follows the Soul Meets Strategy Framework, a 4-phase approach that combines intentional brand building with sustainable business growth.
Â
PHASE ONE:
Soulful Foundations
Clarify your story, values, vision, and messaging so everything you create is personal, powerful, and aligned.

PHASE TWO:
Aligned Systems
Build simple, sustainable workflows, evergreen content systems, and supportive operations so your business can run without burning you out. You’ll set up your website and funnel, grow your email list, and create a behind-the-scenes workflow that frees up your time while nurturing your audience.
PHASE THREE:
Authentic Attraction
Show up with intention, share your story, and create content that truly connects. You’ll grow your audience through sustainable visibility strategies and aligned client attraction. This is where content meets conversion.Â
PHASE FOUR:
Aligned Sales
Create offers and write sales content rooted in your story and strengths. You’ll learn how to sell naturally and confidently, without pressure or performative tactics, so selling becomes something you actually enjoy doing.

The Academy is a monthly membership for online entrepreneurs who are ready to package their story, attract their people, and grow with a marketing plan that’s simple, consistent, and sustainable.
 It’s for the visionary who is tired of cookie-cutter strategy, surface-level marketing, and chasing trends that don’t feel sustainable.
Because let’s be honest, you want it all.
The steady income.
The lasting impact.
The freedom to take your kids out for pancakes at 10 am on a Tuesday without checking your phone once.
Kitchen dance parties while payments land in your Stripe account.
The ability to log off early, sip tea in the garden, or plan a spontaneous trip without your business falling apart.
You didn’t build this business to obsess over algorithms or keep up with every trend.
You built it for joy.
For purpose.
For freedom, creativity, and the kind of soul-aligned success that lets you live fully now, not someday.
I'M READY FOR BUSINESS FREEDOM“I can not believe how much is packed into this course! Incredible value for money. This course is literally step-by-step exactly what you need to do to start an online business OR take your online business to the next level. I have been coaching for almost 3 years and my client leads started really slowing down. Michelle and her team held my hand to build a sales funnel which I am super excited to implement. I also made some wonderful friends who I am still in touch with today. Much love for this course!”
- KRISTIN K.
“Before taking this course, I had no strategy for how to grow my business. Now, I have much more clarity on how to move forward and what I need to have in place in my business to be successful. This is the most comprehensive program that teaches you how to build a solid foundation in your business. Most online courses focus on one aspect like your niche or list building. This program includes everything that you need if you are in the beginning stages of your business. The program is clearly organized and easy to follow. The live group coaching with Michelle and the Facebook community was super valuable for my growth in this program. I would definitely recommend it to anybody.”

"Brandmerry Academy is the best thing that ever happened to my business. It is packed with content that is clear, easy to digest, and simple to implement. However, my favorite part is definitely the 1-on-1 support from Michelle to answer questions via the Facebook group, hot seat coaching, AND website reviews."
Tani W.
“All of the support is amazing, the calls are intimate, and Michelle and her team are very responsive and active in the Facebook group for extra support. I'm so glad I made the choice to join the Academy.”
