How She Disrupted Her Industry's Revenue Model (and Built a 7-Figure Business Her Own Way) with Lyrik Fryer

When Lyrik Fryer built WorkPlay Branding, she wasn’t necessarily trying to be disruptive — she just didn’t want to keep living in the adrenaline crash around the revenue model that comes with project-based work. So she did the thing no one else in her industry was doing: she swapped one-off client projects for a high-ticket, yearlong membership model that now meets clients anywhere in the world.

But what looks effortless from the outside was built on systems, spreadsheets, and a ruthless commitment to structure. In this conversation, we get into how she engineered consistency and how she used systems to create freedom and high profit margins. If you’ve ever looked at your calendar and thought, “there has to be a saner way to do this,” you're going to love this conversation.
