Today’s case study is one of the most creative launch strategies we’ve covered this year. Brittany Roberts sold out a new VIP group program and generated $17,500 in revenue in 72 hours through Instagram’s Close Friends feature. Here’s how it worked: over 250 people opted into a three-day private training series by requesting to be added to Brittany’s Close Friends on Instagram, and then tuned in daily to her Instagram stories. At the end of the 3 day mini-series, she pitched her offer only to that Close Friends list. No public posts or email sequences. With buying cycles getting longer and traditional launch strategies like webinars and 7-10 days of follow-up sales emails leaving entrepreneurs burnt out, Brittany’s results show what’s possible when you simplify your sales process, create proximity and exclusivity with your audience, and strategically position free content to lead to your paid solution.

After leaving her corporate career to start a coaching and consulting business, Brianca Johnson Kirkman wanted a lean, high-impact growth strategy that could generate trust — and clients — fast. In her first six months, she crossed six figures in revenue without a team, paid ads, or social posting, thanks to her self-created Hot 100 Method: a focused visibility strategy built on intentionally nurturing 100 highly aligned people in her network through personalized outreach, generous visibility, and invitation-based selling. This relationship-first approach converted 15% of her initial Hot 100 into paying clients. In her current round, that conversion rate has climbed to 22% with a higher-ticket offer, more targeted connections, and the strategic use of case studies and referral testimonials to close deals. If you’re looking for a repeatable, high-conversion growth engine that doesn’t require audience building or burning out on content, you’ll want to hear how Brianca’s Hot 100 Method keeps delivering six-figure results.

Dr. Lauryn Brunclik didn’t rest on the success of her seven figure chiropractic clinic, instead building something even bigger alongside it. In this episode, she shares how launching a podcast helped her stop relying solely on new patient bookings and start growing a personal brand that’s generated over $1.6 million online (long before she ever hit 10,000 followers.) With over 1,000 podcast downloads in the first week of her show launch with a brand new Instagram account, Lauryn quickly proved that audience size isn’t everything when it comes to building a brand that converts.

When Michelle Denogean joined Roadster as CMO, the company had a great product—but no one knew who they were or why their solution mattered. Digital retailing in the automotive space was still emerging, and skeptical dealerships weren’t ready to dive into their innovative model. Eighteen months later, Roadster had grown its sales pipeline 5X, slashed its sales cycle by 25%, and increased branded search volume by 10X. Not only that—it was acquired by the largest tech company in auto retail for $360 million. So, what changed? Michelle led a full-scale strategic rebrand that prioritized education, positioned Roadster as the industry authority, and rebuilt alignment between sales and marketing teams to boost conversion. In today’s case study, this six-time CMO (currently at Mindtrip), author of GrowUp!, and now startup advisor reveals how she built a category-defining brand and used customer-led storytelling, non-social media driven influencer strategy, and omnichannel thought leadership to 10X business. If you're trying to disrupt your industry, this is the blueprint.

Get your ticket while you can at ⁠⁠⁠https://www.cubicletoceo.co/bloomtogether⁠⁠⁠ Many remote teams struggle with connection, culture, and performance, but Ginni Media is raising the bar. Founder Ginni Saraswati Cook recently led a company-wide culture assessment to evaluate how her remote team was experiencing work satisfaction across five core drivers: Sense of Progress, Challenge, Autonomy, Meaningful Goals, and Team Support. When comparing the results, Ginni Media beat the industry average in every category, including scoring an impressive 100% in team support. Even traditionally tough metrics like autonomy and progress came in nearly 20 percentage points higher than typical benchmarks for remote, hybrid, and in-person teams. This is not a happy accident. In today’s case study, Ginni breaks down the intentional leadership strategies she uses to build trust, motivate her team, and maintain high work satisfaction. If you lead a remote team—or plan to—this is a culture blueprint worth copying.

Get your ticket while you can at ⁠⁠https://www.cubicletoceo.co/bloomtogether⁠⁠ In just one year, Emma Tessler restructured her agency to increase revenue by 45% with a single strategic hire. The founder of Ninety Five Media, Emma hit a ceiling with her fast-growing social media agency. Client work was thriving, but her personal involvement in every project bottlenecked growth and drained capacity. The solution? Hiring a Creative Project Manager to be a buffer between her, the Account Managers, and their clients — owning execution, managing the creative team, and elevating systems and deliverables across the board. The results speak for themselves: average client retainers jumped from $3K to an average of $4K–$7K/month, labor costs dropped by 20% with improved efficiency, and Emma finally stepped out of the weeds, regaining time to focus on strategy, visibility, and even take a two-week unplugged vacation for the first time in years. This case study is proof that scaling doesn’t always require building a massive team — it requires making the right hire.

Get your ticket while you can at ⁠https://www.cubicletoceo.co/bloomtogether⁠ Most companies in the custom closets and home organization industry outsource their manufacturing, but Jennifer Q. Williams did the opposite, and it changed everything. As the founder of Saint Louis Closet Co., Jennifer invested in bringing the entire production process in-house from day one, a bold move that allowed her to deliver fully customizable builds, reduce lead times to 4–6 weeks, and maintain a 100% on-time installation rate. This strategy has fueled 34 years of sustainable growth and empowered her to say yes to complex, last-minute projects — including a high-profile build-out for Grammy-winning rapper, Nelly. In today’s case study on building a customer service centric company, we’ll dig into how in-house manufacturing didn’t just build customer trust and media buzzworthy opportunities, but how it also protected her business from supply chain chaos during Covid and the recent tariffs, led to faster payment collection, and created loyal clients who now drive over 50% of Saint Louis Closet Co.’s revenue through repeat and referral business.

A $19 offer completely transformed her business model. While running a fully booked social media agency and raising two kids, Katelyn Rhoades launched a $19 Instagram Reels Challenge—just a PDF and video training promoted solely through organic Reels. One of her reels promoting the offer went viral, and within 72 hours, that tiny product brought in $10,000 in sales. But she didn’t stop there. Katelyn turned that single offer into a scalable revenue engine: building a funnel, layering in upsells, and launching a DIY membership now doing $10K+ in monthly recurring revenue. Altogether, the $19 product has generated six figures and added thousands to her email list all from organic marketing.

Most people think the best clients come from vetted business networks. But in today’s case study, you’ll hear how this founder quietly generated $40,000 in additional annual revenue from casual conversations inside non-business spaces. Flo Esho, CEO of virtual executive assistant agency The Easy Flow Life, landed one high-ticket retainer client at a dinner with a local mommy group, and another through a single Facebook comment in a 28,000-member lifestyle group. The secret? Intentional presence inside interest-based digital communities, not to pitch — but to meaningfully participate as a relatable, holistic person. These two client wins were just the beginning. Flo’s subtle engagement style in these overlooked spaces now fuels an ongoing stream of discovery calls and warm referrals, giving her organic visibility and dream clients she connects with on a deeper level.

What does it take to host a summit where your registration page converts at 83% and drives $63,000 in back-end course sales and $77,000 in total revenue? In today’s case study, Summit in a Box® founder Krista Miller breaks down the behind-the-scenes of her 2020 virtual summit that attracted 1,250 attendees and led to her highest-converting course launch at the time. With a two-tier all-access pass offer and a brilliant scholarship incentive that led to a 40% LIVE show-up rate for the end-of- summit masterclass that sold her course, Krista turned free attendance into high-ticket enrollment. Now, five years later with hundreds of more summits under her belt (both her own and her students), she’s reflecting on what she’d change if she ran this summit today—from rethinking her pricing strategy to why she now avoids co-hosting entirely—and how that hindsight is informing the way she hosts summits in 2025.

How do you turn a passion-fueled event into a six-figure signature offer? Today’s case study features Elysia Skye, intuitive mentor and founder of The Brilliance Method®, who generated over $150K in net profit by merging high-end video production, coaching, and energy work into a transformative in-person experience called Content Camp. Each cohort served 11–14 coaches, healers, and authors with themed experiences (including Back to the Future events and manifestation exercises in nature). Ticket options ranged from $2K to $11K—and yet, most attendees chose the $11K VIP tier as their default. Elysia shares how she refined her pricing after initially losing money on VIPs, beta tested her first event through referrals, and transitioned this initial offer into her newer Clarity Camp — her current invite-only offer with even higher margins. Keep listening to hear how designing offers Elysia personally wanted to attend was the secret to consistent demand.
