Monday Girl is a thriving private network that empowers the next generation of professional women, focusing on mid to senior-level career development.

Founders Rachel Wong and Istiana Bestari sought to create a space where women could find mentorship, support, and genuine connection — something they struggled to find in conventional networking.

‍

Their platform offers members a variety of experiences, such as:

• Office-hours sessions with high-profile industry leaders
• Exclusive digital and in-person events
• Access to a thriving Slack community—
• — and a weekly newsletter

‍

Now with over 4000 members, Monday Girl faced an urgent need to scale without compromising the authenticity that defined its approach.

‍

The Challenge:

Balancing growth and authenticity

Rachel Wong, Co-Founder of Monday Girl, managed a delicate balance between her demanding role in a tech company and steering Monday Girl’s expansion. The sheer volume of operational tasks became overwhelming, leading Rachel to a pivotal realization: “It was just too much.”

‍

Three key challenges stood out:

• Managing daily tasks while growing the business. As Monday Girl expanded, the workload intensified, straining their limited resources and threatening the quality of their services. They needed to allocate limited resources for maximum impact during this crucial growth stage.
• Scaling at startup with a limited budget. Finding cost-effective solutions for scaling was a struggle. Rachel noted the inefficiency of previous approaches: “We were trying to go through Fiverr or Upwork, but it wasn’t actually very cost-effective.”
• Wasting time onboarding contract workers. The turnover of contractors stalled momentum. “I’m spending so much time training, only for me to just again be stuck looking for somebody else,” Rachel shares her frustration with the repetitive onboarding cycle.

‍

“We tried our best to find contractors, actually sourcing for the community to help out. The problem was they were also doing this on the side and preoccupied with their nine-to-fives.” – Rachel Wong, Co-Founder of Monday Girl

“And of course, [the Montazzo recruiter] was super organized, followed up on time, and made sure that we were looking for the right people; the interviews that we had were great.” – Rachel Wong, Co-Founder of Monday Girl

Monday Girl added a team member who didn’t just tackle daily tasks but set a new performance standard. “It was amazing because we realized that she had her own process too. So she was doing morning updates and the day updates, and I was like, my gosh, we actually started doing them too,” Rachel said.
