Episode notes
Kitchen-Counter Launch To Six Figures
- Caitlin started Full Swing at her kitchen counter with a two-year-old and hit six figures in year one.
- The business exceeded her small initial expectations and grew rapidly from that scrappy beginning.
Revenue ≠ Profit
- Growing revenue doesn't guarantee profit; scaling expenses can erase gains quickly.
- Caitlin learned that making a million can still leave little profit if overhead and reinvestment are high.
Price Outcomes, Not Hours
- Price outcomes, not hours: offer clear packages like a 6-month authority builder at $5,000/month.
- Define scope and duration to make PR a measurable, purchasable product.
