Scale to $10K/mo Without Burning Out

Hire one helper. Cap at 10 clients.

Your hiring path

  • First hire: a TryStyle operator (someone to do the renders) — $5–$10/hr offshore
  • Second hire: a video editor for the CapCut work
  • You stay on client comms and strategy

The math to $10K/mo

10 retainer clients × $1,000/mo = $10K. Spend 1 hour per client per week on QA + comms. That's a 10-hour business. Cap there or productize into a course.
