Today I'm joined by Corina Holden, who turned her fashion blog into a $375,000/year business with a mix of digital products, subscription software, and a proven system that helps women build confident wardrobes.
Corina breaks down how she built multiple revenue streams through Meta ads, Pinterest, and automated systems - sharing how she's grown with 35% profit margins while raising five kids.
Then I work with her to map out a path to $250K in take-home pay with less hands-on time, transitioning from her current 15-20 hour workweeks to a more automated business that can run while she's away.
You'll get both tactical marketing insights and high-level strategy: from testing ad creative and leveraging Pinterest to creating Creator Flywheels that let you scale without sacrificing family time or freedom.
