“She's also recently booked and gotten the deposit for a three-day intensive client who found her on social media, who was not one of her current clients. So, which is amazing. All this during, you know, the 12 weeks. And her pricing, just so you know, 2,100 for one day, 3,600 for two day, and 5,100 for a three-day intensive, right? So that's the money she is earning from the intensives that she's already, you know, booked and booking. And so she has made way more back than her investment in the course.’’
