$25k month breakthrough (lessons from Ashley's story)
Hey there friend,
Not too long ago I had a 30 minute call with my student Ashley.
She made $25,000 in March on TikTok Shop.
(and a lot more since then).
6-8 months ago, she was making $1,000 per month across two accounts while posting 20+ videos per day.
Her transformation OBVIOUSLY wasn't about working harder.
It was about working smarter.
Cliche, I know, I know.
But here are the biggest lessons from her breakthrough:
Lesson #1: Stop the Product Carousel
Ashley was testing 20 different products daily across three accounts.
She was creating 100+ videos some days, each requiring a different script and approach.
The mental exhaustion was killing her results.
When we started working together, I had her focus on 6 products total across all accounts.
Same energy, focused execution, exponentially better results.
Lesson #2: Data Over Hope
Ashley works in tech and lives in spreadsheets all day.
But somehow, she was running her TikTok Shop business on the "hope and pray” method.
The moment she started treating it like the data-driven business it is, everything changed.
"Let the numbers tell you what to do. Take the thinking out of it."
Companies don't make decisions based on feelings. Neither should you.
Lesson #3: Commitment Beats Switching
There was a product Ashley wanted to quit after making $30/day for weeks.
I told her to stick with it based on the data patterns.
That product became one of her top sellers in March.
She's now the #1 affiliate for that brand.
Most people quit right before the breakthrough.
This is most people ^^^
Lesson #4: Treat It Like a Business
Ashley works 60 hours per week at two jobs, has three kids, and still manages six TikTok accounts.
Her secret is that she stopped treating TikTok Shop like "fun time."
"This is not fun. This is a job. I'm relying on this to support my family."
Enough said on that.
Lesson #5: Investment Mindset
Ashley had tried three other coaching programs before mine.
She'd invested $6-8k in education with minimal results.
But she kept investing because she understood a fundamental truth: "You have to invest in your education."
The mentorship paid for itself in 2-3 weeks.
Lesson #6: Execute Exactly as Taught
Ashley's biggest advantage? She followed instructions perfectly.
No modifications. No "improvements." No freelancing.
"When somebody gives you the exact roadmap to get to the treasure, if you go off course, you're a dumbass."
Harsh but true.
The Real Transformation
6-8 months ago: $1,000/month, posting 100+ videos, constantly stressed
Today: $25,000/month, focused strategy, paying off debt and planning early retirement
The difference wasn't luck or talent.
It was system + execution + commitment.
What This Means for You
Ashley's story isn't unique because she's special.
It's powerful because she's normal.
Working mom, full-time job, limited time, had failed before.
If the system works for someone with her constraints, it can work for anyone willing to:
Focus instead of scatter
Use data instead of hope
Commit instead of switch
Invest in education
Execute without modifications
Ashley went from discouraged about her lack of results to texting me gratitude messages every morning (She is actually the greatest hahaha).
The opportunity is the same for everyone.
The execution separates winners from everyone else.
Are you ready to execute like a winner?
