Case Summary.

Michael Bailey helped a Pakistani founder in social media marketing win an O-1 approval, built on a selective merit-based membership that required proven revenue, above-market earnings for the field, and a content format he developed for clients in the technical-training space. Independent press coverage and judging roles secured during the preparation window rounded out the criteria. The approval clears the way for him to run the new U.S. arm of his business.
