What comes to mind when you hear the word "networking"? For extroverts, it might be a breeze, effortlessly connecting with strangers, but for many others, it's a daunting prospect, especially for women eager to connect with like-minded peers. Enter the networking platform, Monday Girl.
Dissatisfied with the status quo, Monday Girl founders Rachel Wong and Istiana Bestari set out to create something better—a community with real value. Today, we are going to uncover the early insights that fueled their vision and the strategies they employed to attract and engage women who are too looking for a better way to network.
What you’re about to hear is a chat I had with Rachel and Istiana a few weeks ago where we explored their incredible growth story—how they've managed to scale Monday Girl while preserving their core values and the sense of belonging they've worked so hard to cultivate. Their story really is a testament to the power of collaboration and the unwavering pursuit of a vision that they set out to bring to life not too long ago.
Let’s meet the Monday Girls!
