I couldn't think of a better title for this episode, and I know it's a bold claim, but this case study with Tara Walsh is the most inspiring case study we've featured here on the podcast! Tara Walsh is " The Lashpreneur," and she's one of our extraordinary Business By Design students. She opens up in a real and authentic way today about how she took her struggling membership that was generating $2,000 a month, and in just one year, now has a thriving membership generating $30,000 of recurring revenue – each month! This is a story of real life and how a wife and mother navigates it, while not letting anything stop her along the way. The Recurring Revolution is back on April 25th, 2019!
