Most Med Spas are chasing more leads when the real growth opportunity is already sitting in their treatment rooms. In this episode, I break down the reason so many Med Spas stay busy but are not profitable. Your lifetime customer value is lower than it should be, and it's quietly capping your growth, your cash flow, and your capacity to scale. I share the 10 reasons this happens, from teams that don't know how to hold a long-term plan, to the absence of forecasting, to a culture that treats results like a "one-and-done" fix instead of an ongoing relationship. Tune in to learn how to turn one-off appointments into lifelong patient relationships that compound your results, revenue, and impact.   HIGHLIGHTS Why lifetime customer value is the growth lever in your business. How failing to hold an annual roadmap erodes results and revenue. How forecasting creates predictable revenue. Why promos fall flat when they aren't connected to patients on your calendar. How "one-and-done" thinking caps both results and retention. Why your team struggles to recommend the next step. The key metrics you must track to increase patient value. How philosophy shapes patient behavior and buying decisions.

I share why your patients don't need order-takers, they need experts who hold the vision for their transformation, why "being nice" by under-recommending is actually unkind, how uncertainty in the consult erodes trust, and what it really takes to lead with conviction.

What my interior designer taught me about "holding the line" on a vision. The 3 shifts that increase results and lifetime value. How forecasting and follow-up turn recommendations into real outcomes.

Generosity isn't something you earn after success. It's a decision that creates it. In this episode, I dive into one of the most powerful forces shaping your business, your leadership, and your experience of growth: generosity. Many leaders believe abundance will come once they hit a certain revenue milestone, but what I see over and over again is that scarcity shows up long before money ever becomes the real issue. I talk about how your beliefs around investing, paying others, pricing your work, and even receiving support directly impact how your business grows and how it feels to run it. When you decide to experience generosity now, abundance stops being something you chase and starts becoming something you create.   HIGHLIGHTS Why generosity is a decision, not a reward. How scarcity quietly shows up in leadership and business growth. The story that revealed a deeper issue around entitlement and value. How early financial hardship shaped my relationship with money. Why generosity benefits the giver more than the receiver. The difference between seeing expenses as costs versus investments.   RESOURCES + LINKS Try Ask Heather AI for 30 Days HERE Apply for The Med Spa Advantage HERE   FOLLOW Heather: @heatherterveen Website: heatherterveen.com
