Instagram is more than just pretty pictures—it's a powerful sales tool when used with intention. In this episode of the Brands that Book Show, Krista sits down with Abigail Peugh, a digital product expert and Instagram strategist, to talk about how she’s leveraged the platform not only to grow her business, but to create real revenue and community.

Abigail opens up about the deeply personal journey that led her into entrepreneurship, including a family health crisis that pushed her to go all-in on her own business. She began her journey on TikTok, built a wildly successful account, and transitioned to Instagram after her account was deleted. Today, she helps thousands of creatives grow and sell through her online community and weekly resources.
