How I Reached $1M Revenue (No Employees Required)

Ever wondered if you could hit $1M in revenue—without hiring a single employee? I did it, and I want to share exactly how in this week's episode.

From my early days in recruitment to launching Craig CV as a side hustle, I’ve learned what works (and what definitely doesn’t) when you’re scaling solo. My biggest lesson? Switching to a subscription model was a game changer—revenue soared, and our business became truly sustainable.

But it wasn’t just pricing. I relied on a handful of freelancers, built trust through useful content, and leaned hard into what users actually told us they wanted. Every month, we reviewed exit surveys to prioritize new features—keeping our customers at the heart of product development.

Plus, I’ll break down the digital PR and SEO tactics that brought us over 300 high-quality backlinks and major media mentions—all without a massive marketing budget.

If you’re building something on your own or with a tiny team, this episode is for you. Join me for the full breakdown of my $1M playbook.
