Elyanna is the real deal. She is so gifted in administration and wisdom, and has foresight in business that I've never seen. She really took the reins when I needed backup, helped build and lead a global team, and is a big reason why we had a cohort of 300+ members. I may have been the face, but she was the driver, and I couldn't be more proud of what we've built together."
— Mike Lim, Executive Coach & Global Speaker
In the beginning, Mr. Lim was a globally recognized executive coach and keynote speaker launching his first structured online coaching program with a worldwide audience ready, but no operational infrastructure to match his vision.
The idea was powerful, but the execution was in freefall. With just two weeks to launch, there was no real system in place — leads were slipping through the cracks, the backend was riddled with holes, and the entire weight of building it fell on a speaker already stretched thin. Only $3K in sales had come in. The clock was ticking, and the foundation simply wasn't there.
Two weeks out, we stepped in and took over the operational build entirely. The priority was triage first — identifying every gap in the system and closing it before a single new student fell through. From there, we built a relational outreach strategy that didn't feel transactional, making personal connections with prospective students in a way that reflected Mike's heart and mission. Every system, message, and process was aligned with his brand and vision, so nothing felt off — it just felt like Mike.
The Result:
By launch day, the program had generated $51K — a complete turnaround in 14 days. The second cohort pushed that to $104K by refining pricing and opening international doors. By the sixth cohort, the program had welcomed students from over 20 nations and crossed $400K in total sales, with a community of 300+ members built around a shared mission.
