In this episode of Breakthrough Innovation, we sit down with Andy Milligan — founder of MMG Design and host of the Marketing by Design podcast.

Andy took a layoff at 23 and turned it into a thriving business. But he didn’t just hustle — he built with intention, documenting every step, mistake, and milestone along the way.

📉 Why his monthly revenue dropped to $800 — and why he posted it anyway

📈 How he climbed to consistent $20K+ MRR as a solo founder

🎙️ Why launching a podcast became the key to business growth and mental health

💡 His advice for separating yourself from your business

🧠 How fear, feedback, and consistency shaped his entrepreneurial path

This episode is for the builders — the creatives, freelancers, and founders doing the work behind the scenes to build something real.
