Have you ever wondered why some entrepreneurs seem to crush it every time while others feel like they’re spinning their wheels? Spoiler alert: It’s not luck—it’s testing.

Today, I’m peeling back the curtain and giving you an inside look at how two incredible entrepreneurs tackled their recent Black Friday promotions. And here’s the kicker: they weren’t afraid to try new strategies, even when it meant stepping out of their comfort zones.

In this episode, I’m sharing why testing (not guessing) is the real MVP for marketing and conversions, the behind-the-scenes of a product-based business that 10X’d their Amazon sales, and how a service-based entrepreneur doubled her revenue with a last-minute webinar.

Plus, I’ll walk you through how to navigate the ups and downs of testing—and why the results are always worth it.

Whether you’re scaling a product line or leveling up your service-based offers, these stories will spark ideas, inspire action, and, let’s be real, probably make you say, “I can totally do this.”
