Think multi-6 figure launches selling high-ticket products, from a single webinar, is impossible? Think again! In this episode, I sit down with Mel Wells, a best-selling author, feminine embodiment coach, and global speaker, right here in Sedona, as she reveals how she built her 7-figure business by design.  In fact, Mel is generating more revenue in her business by simply selling less offers, less products, less often, and as a result, is enjoying life more, and she shares it all with us today.  As we just wrapped up our 2025 training of The Rise of the Digital CEO, I thought this was the perfect episode to show what’s possible with the revenue and impact you can achieve when you put in the time, effort and consistency!  Hey there, Digital CEO!
