How She Went From ZERO To $2M in 18 Months

Last June, our business generated $9,000 in revenue. Only six months later, we turned it into a million-dollar company. In this episode, my partner Tomer and I dissect the daily process and mindset that led to this transformation.  We discuss the importance of not chasing fast results but instead focusing on meaningful interactions and customer appreciation. We also delve into the challenges faced with growing too quickly and how integrating Switch into a larger portfolio has created both new opportunities and challenges.  You'll learn how we built this success step by step, and how our method can be applied to any business looking to grow sustainably.
