Figure out what works, regardless of conventional wisdom. Just because something has been done a certain way doesn’t mean that it should continue. The most successful business owners are also the greatest nonconformists.

- Don’t be ashamed of self-promotion
Many entrepreneurs shy away from promoting themselves, which is why it was so refreshing to see Miko’s Instagram feed filled with images and quotes of her book. Her love for her own work made me want to go and buy her book and fall in love with it.
- Pay it forward
Miko takes the time out to pay it forward and help other inspiring entrepreneurs start up their business. She is constantly speaking at events that are for entrepreneurs, and her book is a whole guide on how to start a business from nothing.
- Honor your story
Miko’s feed is filled with pride of her story. Be it, the good things, like her Asian heritage or the struggles, like her sister and business partner passing away in December, she wears her scars with courage and transparency. She doesn’t shy away from her story but instead embraces it and by doing so helps and inspires so many others.
Great job! Yes I truly admire, salute and appreciate Miko Branch! There is so much to learn and gain by reading her book with TitiBranch. Her book is so amazing and should be in public schools, especially secondary schools. At every live event, Miko Branch captivates audiences with her story and her desire to interact with the audience. We are so fortunate to have Miko Branch now. Looking forward to the future accomplishments of Miko Branch. Thanks for sharing.
