The 5 Steps to Reaching Your Revenue Breakthrough with Monica Shah

Monica Shah tells us her story of going from $25,000 in debt to $12,000 in savings and 22 clients in 1 year, and the 5 steps to reaching a revenue breakthrough.

Monica Shah’s philosophy is simple – she provides clear step-by-step systems to
build six-figure businesses and beyond. Monica believes that getting smart about
business is essential to creating an amazing lifestyle and a sustainable business, but it
doesn’t have to be confusing, hard or arduous.
Monica’s popular Revenue Breakthrough programs provide money, marketing
and sales strategy, with the focus on doubling your income while doing what you
love. Her programs combine clear templates, scripts, and handouts, with awesome
community to give business owners the tools they need to succeed, without going
broke or crazy in the process.

In 2006, I left my job as a brand manager at L’Oreal Paris to start my own business.

I had an MBA from Kellogg School of Management. And I grew up in an entrepreneurial household.

I thought I was hot stuff.

I thought I was going to rock this entrepreneur thing.

And then I got checked by reality. Hard.

Within 1 year, I racked up $25,000 in debt, investing in trainings & programs, and trying to launch my own products & programs (most of which flopped).

I rented out my New York apartment just to have enough money to pay my bills each month. I basically ran my business from my friends’ couches.

I realized that I had zero method to my madness.

“I was just trying one random
thing after another – and no one
was able to tell me what ORDER
to do them in.”
 
So I spent the next year figuring it out…
I paid close attention to my numbers.

I tracked what worked, and what didn’t.

I identified which activities would make money the fastest.

I hired a master coach to help me (with a short term loan from my family).

And I turned my business (and my life) around.

By the end of that year, I had 22 clients, 2 group programs, $12,000 in savings, and ZERO dollars in debt.

Today, I’m a 7-figure business owner, coaching women in building businesses that change their lives, their families’ lives, and their clients’ lives. (Many of my clients have doubled and tripled their revenue within 1 year of working with me.)

The reason I make money is so I can have an amazing life, which includes transforming the lives of my clients.

But it also includes awesome pork buns at Momofuku in New York, hanging with my dad on his porch all day, and traveling with my partner Jai. (I’m also a lover of all things Fantasy and Science Fiction and own at least 6 different decks of Oracle Cards.)
