Ep 230230. Strategic Downsizing: This CEO Grew Take Home Pay By $60K When She Slashed Her Revenue From $650K to $300K.
You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 It’s counterintuitive that letting go of your team and clients would increase your take home pay, but this case study on intentionally downsizing your business proves that can be true. Despite a high demand for her services, nonprofit fractional fundraiser consultant Cindy Wagman realized the business she was growing didn’t actually align with the life she wanted to create. Cindy made a risky bet by letting go of all her employees and offboarding her existing clients, effectively slashing her annual revenue in half, from $650,000 to $300,000. The result? She reduced her workload to only 3.5 days a week while increasing her take home pay by $60K (and growing yearly). In this case study, we cover why this strategic downsize improved profitability, how Cindy facilitated this transition of her team and clients, and practical insights that will help any entrepreneur seeking to better align their business finances with their personal goals.

You don't need to break the bank to boost your business! Check out the 33 FREE resources available to you in Freebie Fest Vol.2: http://ellenyin.com/freebiefestv2 Sick of creating video-first content for Instagram and TikTok? LinkedIn may be calling your name. Tania Bhattacharyya, founder of thought leadership consulting firm Lumos Marketing, helps social impact entrepreneurs and nonprofit teams stand out so they can stand up for their mission through storytelling and content strategy on LinkedIn.

This is intel she’s never even shared on her own podcast, The Campfire Circle. Whether you’re an active LinkedIn lurker, or someone who hasn’t touched their account since creating it for your first job, you’ll love this “less is more” approach to launch success on a non-saturated content platform.

Ep 224224. This Voxer Summit Strategy May Convince You To Ditch Your Webinar - She Made $66K Last Launch!

Yes Voxer, our favorite communication app that functions like a modern day walkie talkie. In this episode, she discusses the structure of her audio only summit, how she monetizes this free summit to fundraise for one of her favorite organizations and grow her list fast, plus a top to bottom look at the funnel that converts people from free attendees to paying students for a four figure program.

Ep 222222. Replace Work-Life “Balance” With Work-Life “Harmony” To 6X Your Revenue
I’ve always felt “work-life balance” is an unrealistic expectation to strive for because different seasons require different priorities, so I usually opt for the goal of ‘work life harmony’ instead. Today’s guest shares the same sentiment. Tina Wells, founder of RLVNT Media and WNDR LN, launched a successful market research company at age 16, has published more than 15 books over the course of the last 2 decades, and has been recognized in Fast Company’s 100 Most Creative People in Business + Essence’s 40 Under 40. Her acclaimed Elevation Approach, a framework for finding work-life harmony Tina developed while confronting her own burnout, expanded with a book and corresponding product line, available at Target stores nation-wide. In today’s case study, Tina takes us through how she’s applied the four phases of her Elevation Approach to 6X her revenue in 2 years while cutting her daily work hours in half, and how you can apply it to your life seasonally, monthly, weekly, and DAILY.

Ep 221221. How, Why, & When To Niche Down To Bring In The Big Bucks
“You need to niche down” is advice we’ve all heard a thousand times, but rarely are there answers to the how, when, and why? Here to disclose the secrets of choosing a successful niche that brings in the big bucks is Eman Ismail - a copywriter who went from writing anything for anyone, to an email conversion strategist for 6, 7 & 8 figure online business owners. Eman firmly believes that niching is the fastest way to grow your business, and her case study today details her own step-by-step niche transformation that took her from making £15 an hour and averaging $40K a year to consistently booking $6,000 client projects and scaling her copywriting business to six figures. In this episode she shares the 4 principles of a successful niche, how to control your narrative (so people can accurately explain what you do when you’re not in the room), and what to do if you feel like your current audience isn’t your niche target.

Ep 217217. The Line-By-Line Email That Made $24K From A List Of 500 Subscribers
Sign up for your FREE ticket to Rise Together, a 5 day virtual event from Oct 30th - November 3rd: https://ellenyin.com/risetogether Enter to win a $4,999 travel credit from G Adventures by October 31st (valid for US listeners only): https://gadventures.com/wishlist We love a woman with a strong stance on marketing, and today’s guest does not disappoint. Kirsten Roldan is a firm believer that millionaires send emails. Period. Her program - Million Dollar Email - makes businesses social media optional by helping CEOs scale revenue to the million dollar mark with only a small email list. To show she walks the walk, Kirsten achieved that milestone herself with a then-list size of 500 subscribers. Rather than take a ten thousand foot view of her email strategy, we get granular in today’s case study by dissecting one single email that made $24,000, going line by line with a fine tooth comb. We’ll get into all the details - open rate, click-through rate, subject line, time of send, order in the email sequence, CTA, and more. Not one to shy away from polarizing strategies, Kirsten also lets us in on how she sends 5-10 emails a DAY during a launch while sustaining a low unsubscribe rate, why she doesn’t bother segmenting her list for most email sends or tracking open rates and clicks in real-time, and why she won’t give her students email templates. This thought-provoking conversation is fire, and not just because of the hot takes. Let’s analyze.

Ep 216216. Create Your Own Holiday To Boost Sales! This ‘Anti-Black Friday’ Campaign Made $70K Without Social Media
Amazon created their own holiday with Prime Days - so why can’t small businesses? Holly Haynes had the same thought; she was tired of competing against massive brands for advertising space during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday craze, and being stressed about launching when she’d rather be spending time with her family. Thus, her end of year ‘Anti-Black Friday’ campaign was born - a launch driving people to a private podcast funnel, which then primes listeners to join Holly’s Anti-Social School program. In this case study, we’ll cover the strategic launch plan that generated $70K in revenue - without relying on social media to spread the word. If you want to go social media optional this holiday season and create sales hype on your own schedule, this one’s for you.

Ep 213213. Freely Changing Your Business Model Without Wrecking Financial Stability
Our guest today is already a seasoned expert at change, despite only being in her early 20s. Just before her freshman year of college in 2019, Shyne Webster created her business, Designed by Shyne - a passion project turned clothing brand. But as her business acumen grew, she transitioned into a full-time brand design freelancer and eventually agency owner, offering brand strategy, 1:1 coaching, and even teaching workshops on innovation and design thinking. After previously pivoting her solo practice into an (anti)agency in 2021 - a concept explained later in the episode - she recently decided to revert back to her freelancing roots while cutting her client work to only six hours a week and testing new service packages that she hasn’t offered before. In this case study, Shyne gives us a realistic account of how she’s consistently maintained financial stability while exploring evolving passions and new business models. Discover what data prompted her latest pivot, how she's redefining her work to find excitement and personal fulfillment, and the financial baseline she recommends for making drastic moves of your own.

Ep 212212. Trade Show Secrets: How A New Brand Sold $200K In One Weekend With No Products
This sister duo turned a dream and a shoestring budget into a trade show triumph! Picture this: Becca Stern and her sister Jess invested $25,000 AUD of their savings to start their business, Mustard Made - a line of colorful vintage inspired lockers with a cult following and celebrity fans. They took a big risk right off the bat, deciding to test the viability of their new business at a trade show with only a few product samples on hand. If they received a few orders to validate their proof of concept, they’d keep building. If the trade show proved a lack of product market fit, they would cut their losses early. What happened next was beyond their wildest expectations - over $200,000 AUD in orders poured in, smashing their two-year projections in one weekend! Today, Becca is taking us behind the scenes of their trade show success, including exactly what they spent their bootstrapped budget of $25K on for maximum returns, how they designed a standout booth experience to attract buyers, and the creative teaser they used to put their then-unknown brand on people’s radar pre-event. If you’re building a consumer brand and selling through in-person activations at trade shows, markets, or events, this episode is a blueprint for you. Even if you solely sell digital products, this is a master case study in grassroots marketing and brand building you’ll find new ideas from.

Join the conversation on Threads! https://www.threads.net/@cubicletoceo/post/Cv8gZRmJsYa/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Is it realistic to make $1 million a year with one digital product? Attorney-turned-entrepreneur Sam Vander Wielen has proven it’s possible many years in a row with her Ultimate Bundle™, a collection of 10 fill-in-the-blank legal templates, on-demand trainings, and a raving community of thousands redefining the way coaches, service providers, and creatives protect their businesses! Even though all the contracts in the bundle are available in the template shop to buy individually, the Bundle itself currently accounts for 90% of the shop’s annual revenue. We’re getting into the nuts & bolts of what makes this bundle offer consistently outperform expectations despite, as Sam self-proclaims, selling a boring product. If you're looking for a fresh way to package or position your offerings to fly off the shelf, Sam’s case study will open an entire world of new ideas for how to make even something so-called “boring” a must-buy.

Ep 206206. 70K New Followers in 6 Months: Real-Time Tips For Organic Instagram Growth in 2023
What strategies are actually working for Instagram audience growth in 2023? Today’s case study features Instagram expert and business coach Mya Nichol, who gained an impressive 70,000 new followers in 6 months between January 8 and July 8 of this year! Mya reveals why she cut her posting volume in half this year, her winning ways to keep viewers on your video for longer watch times, and three other key strategies she’s experimenting with in real-time so you can borrow her best performing ones. From a humble start of 2,000 or so followers a few short years ago to now cresting almost 280,000 followers, Mya is honest about what it takes to both succeed (and fail enthusiastically) in an ever-changing Instagram landscape and why you can still see significant growth in 2023 with the right approach.

Ep 204204. Behind the Buyout: The Numbers & Negotiation of Vibely’s Acquisition By Kajabi
Try Kajabi for 30 days completely FREE: https://ellenyin.com/kajabi What is it actually like to build a company that gets acquired? Sharing her first-hand experience today is tech founder Teri Yu, who sold her community-based software, Vibely, to the $2 billion online business platform Kajabi, where her product became Kajabi Communities. After raising $2.5 million in funding, Teri eventually scaled Vibely to a $6 million annual run rate and hundreds of thousands users served through the communities creators hosted on Vibely. Recognized by BlogHer as the Innovator of The Year, Teri’s path from cubicle to CEO and then back to employee as Kajabi’s now Director of Product is anything but conventional. Teri spills the beans on the key factors that made her company an attractive buy to interested parties like Google, Patreon, and of course Kajabi, the pivotal moments that shaped her decision to sell and why she chose Kajabi, and how she navigated the rollercoaster of post-exit emotions as a founder.
