Ready for a million dollar store?
Let's work out how to get you there
Sound about right?
It's Tuesday, 10am.
You've already been at it for hours.
The newsletter you meant to send hasn't gone out.
There's $30K-something tied up in stock that's been sitting there for over a year and you can't quite work out what to do with it.
You've already run a sale this quarter. You'll probably run another one before the end of the month, because rent's due and that's how you make rent now.
Eighty-something percent of your sales are coming from the same customers who've been buying from you for years. Lovely. Except they've already got everything you sell.
By 10pm you'll be back at the laptop fixing something whilst your partner's watching Netflix without you.
You're transferring money between accounts to cover wages on Thursday.
The casual who works two days a week takes home more than you did this month.
You're working harder than anyone you know.
And you feel like this business should be further along than it is.
"I just want someone to show me what I'm missing"
Which is why I created
My Million Dollar Store
After 15 years in the industry and auditing more than 500 retail and ecommerce businesses, here's the pattern I keep seeing:
- You're working harder than ever, and the business isn't getting any closer to $1M.
- More effort isn't moving the needle.
- More ideas aren't either.
- You don't need another course.
- You don't need more tactics.
- You don't need someone telling you to post more, run more ads, send more emails.
You need to know what's actually getting in the way of $1M - and what to do about it first.
That's what My Million Dollar Store does.
Before this, my business constantly felt heavy. I was trying to do everything myself, focusing on all the things, and honestly… it felt like no matter how hard I worked, there was always more. I was busy all the time, but it felt like I was carrying the whole business and still not always sure I was focusing on the right things. Now, everything feels lighter. I’m not trying to do everything anymore, and that alone has changed so much. I have a much clearer understanding of what actually matters, what needs my attention, and what doesn’t. For me, that’s been one of the biggest transformations - not just working hard, but finally feeling like the business is easier to run because I’m no longer carrying all of it the same way
Now imagine the same Tuesday, twelve weeks from now.
You open the laptop and your heart didn't speed up. Your breath didn't go shallow. There was no dread in the pit of your stomach...
Because the newsletter went out. You know exactly how much you made last week. The launch is planned.
The cash that was tied up in the old stock has been freed and is paying for the new range — which is selling. The back room has space in it now.
You haven't run a "rent's due" sale in two months. New customers are coming in at a rate that doesn't depend on you posting on Instagram every day.
You paid yourself a proper wage on Friday. The casual who works two days a week now earns less than you do.
You stopped at 6pm last night and watched Netflix with your family on the couch.
A million dollar store doesn't feel out of reach anymore. It's something you're actually working toward
If working more was the ticket to $1M, you'd have been there years ago.
The answer was never more effort.
Here's How We Get There
Once you can see what's really happening in your business - you can't unsee it.
And you feel like a weight has lifted off your chest
It Starts Here...
Phase 1:
Money
The Money's There. You Just Can't See It Yet.
Find Money Fountains
Plug Money Leaks
Put More Cash Back In Your Pocket
Most store owners think the answer is more revenue...
But what we usually find is something else entirely. Money coming in. Not enough staying.
In this Phase you'll:
✔️ Find (and free up) cash that is draining from your business
✔️ Understand why your numbers look one way on paper but feel completely different in your account
✔️ Work out what you actually need to sell to hit your targets
✔️ Stop confusing a good month's revenue with a good month's profit
Phase 2: Customers
You Can't Sell to Everyone. But You've Been Trying To.
Find the Customers Worth Keeping
Understand Why They Buy
Get Them Spending More
Find the Customers Worth Keeping
You're spreading yourself thin trying to attract everyone - and ending up with customers who buy once, discount-hunt, and never come back.
In this Phase you'll:
✔️ Understand what makes someone go from browsing to buying, and then coming back again
✔️ Stop spending money on people who were never going to buy
✔️ Find out who your best customers actually are - not who you think they are
✔️ Build messaging that speaks directly to the people already willing to pay full price
Phase 3:
Sales
Crossing your fingers and hoping people buy is not a sales strategy.
Unlock the Sales You're Already Sitting On
Get Customers Spending More Per Visit
Build Revenue That's Repeatable
the key driver to make money
Most store owners run promotions when they need cash. Something's quiet, so they throw a sale together, push it out, and see what happens.
Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. And either way, they're not sure why.
In this Phase you'll:
✔️ Find the revenue that's already sitting in your business and discover how to unlock it.
✔️ Get customers to spend more and thank you for it
✔️ Discover the key to creating sales campaigns that convert
✔️ Know how to use discounts strategically rather than as your main marketing source
✔️ Build your sales machine that runs on autopilot 24/7
Phase 4:
Marketing
The Problem Probably Isn't Your Marketing. It's What You're Asking Your Marketing to Fix.
Build Marketing That Pays for Itself
Create a Marketing Plan That Drives Sales
Create Offers Customers Can't Say No To
Get customers to know you exist and want what you sell
Go from reactive, when-you-have-time marketing → to a clear campaign plan
In this Phase you'll:
✔️ Create irresistible offers you customers can't say no to
✔️ Get clear on where your current marketing isn't working - and how to fix it
✔️ Understand when you should dial up your marketing, or dial it back.
✔️ Build out a repeatable marketing plan that you can actually implement
Phase 5:
Impact
If Everything Relies on You, the Business Can't Grow Beyond What You Can Carry.
Stop Carrying Everything Yourself
Build a Team That Actually Works
Stop Being the Bottleneck
from overwhelmed and overworked - to a business that doesn't rely just on you
Your business doesn't have a capacity problem. It has a "you're involved in everything" problem.
And until that changes, nothing changes
In this Phase you'll:
✔️ Learn how to stop being the bottleneck in your own business
✔️ Discover how to hire a team that will actually work out
✔️ Uncover exactly how you can create the revenue needed to pay for new hires
✔️ Create more structure so the business can grow without your constant firefighting
A million dollar store isn't about vanity.
It's about viability.
The average net profit for a retail or ecommerce business is 10%
At 10% net margin,
$1M revenue = $100,000 profit
$100,000 you can actually use to grow.
Retail and ecommerce aren't like other businesses.
You have tens - or hundreds - of thousands of dollars locked up in inventory.
Money that's literally sitting on a shelf, not in your bank account.
A million dollars isn't just a number, it's the point where everything changes
Inside My Million Dollar Store
If you don't figure this out - nothing really changes
You just do more.
More effort.
More hours.
More money invested.
Maybe a better month here and there.
But no real shift.
And a year from now, you're still asking:
"What am I actually supposed to focus on when there's so much to do?"
That's not a motivation problem. That's a "can't see what matters" problem. And it won't fix itself.
But it can be fixed.
Is my million dollar store right for you?
You're a retailer,
an e-commerce store,
or a product-based business
You feel like
something is off,
but you can't
pinpoint what
You're doing
the work,
but not seeing
the return you want
You're tired of
trying things
without knowing if
they're the right things
You've realised the answer isn't doing more
it's knowing what's actually working
Your business
is already
up and running
This is not for you if: you want a quick fix, you want someone to do it for you or you're only looking for marketing tactics
I finally stopped second-guessing! Before the program, one of the hardest parts about running my business wasn’t even the workload - it was the constant second-guessing. I was making decisions every day, but always wondering… is this actually right? Am I going to regret this choice? I didn't realise it at the time, but that mental load was exhausting. Now, I feel so much more relieved because I’m not carrying that same constant uncertainty. I understand what I’m looking at, I know what matters more, and decisions feel so much easier because I’m not guessing all the time anymore. For me, that relief alone has been huge - it's like a weight has lifted off my chest and I can breathe again.
The Questions You're Probably Asking:
HOW MUCH TIME WILL I NEED TO COMMIT EACH WEEK?
Around 3–4 hours.
That's not 3–4 hours on top of what you're already doing. It's 3–4 hours redirected — away from putting out fires, away from the marketing tasks that aren't moving the needle, into work that actually changes the business.
Each week you'll get a plan that maps out exactly where those hours go — what to focus on, what can wait, and how long each piece should take. Some weeks will be lighter. Some heavier. But you'll never be guessing what to spend your time on.
That's the whole point.
HOW LONG DOES MY MILLION DOLLAR STORE GO FOR?
My Million Dollar Store is a 12-week strategic growth program designed to help you understand what’s really going on in your business, what needs to change, and what to focus on next.
You’ll work through the full program with us over 12 weeks, with each phase building on the one before it — from money and customers, through to sales, marketing, and business structure.
WHAT IF MY TIMEZONE DOESN’T LINE UP WITH THE LIVE CALLS — WILL I MISS OUT?
Not at all.
All live sessions are recorded, so you can watch them when it suits your schedule. You’ll also be able to submit questions ahead of time, so you still get the guidance and support you need even if you can’t attend live.
HOW LONG WILL I HAVE ACCESS TO MY MILLION DOLLAR STORE?
You’ll have full access to MMDS for the full 12 weeks of your program.
This gives you access to the curriculum, 1:1 feedback, coaching, tools, and support you need while you’re actively working through the program and implementing what matters most in your business.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I FINISH MY MILLION DOLLAR STORE?
Once you complete MMDS, you may be invited to join our Alumni Program.
This is designed for business owners who want continued strategic support, ongoing one-on-one access, and continued access to the MMDS program and resources as they keep scaling.
Think of it as your next level of support — for when you want to keep building on what you’ve started.
I WORK IN A RETAIL OR ECOMMERCE BUSINESS — CAN I STILL JOIN?
Potentially, yes.
To get the full value from MMDS, you’ll need access to key business data like finances, marketing performance, customer behaviour, and sales figures.
If you have that level of access and decision-making ability within the business, MMDS can still be incredibly valuable. Both you and the business owner will need to discuss with us before you're accepted.
IS THIS JUST ANOTHER GROUP COACHING PROGRAM?
No.
In a group coaching program, you're one of a few hundred people in a Facebook group, hoping you get picked on a call. You spend most of your time trying to work out what advice applies to your business and what doesn't.
My Million Dollar Store doesn't work like that.
Your not here to just get more ideas
You get 1:1 feedback on your business — your numbers, your customers, your campaigns — every week.
The strategy sessions with Sal aren't generic Q&A; they're built around what's happening inside the businesses in the room.
It’s strategic growth support designed to help you understand what matters in your business — and what to do next.
DOES THIS ONLY WORK FOR E-COMMERCE BUSINESSES?
No. The strategies inside My Million Dollar Store are designed for both online and offline businesses.
The approach bridges the gap between physical, digital, and product-based businesses, allowing you to maximise opportunities across all channels.
YOU'RE PROTECTED BY OUR
RESULTS GUARANTEE
If you show up, do the work, and still don't feel like you know what to focus on by the end of 12 weeks - we don't walk away. You get an additional month inside the program, at no extra cost, so you do.
Because the goal isn't to finish the program.
The goal is to know what to do next.
If Facebook groups, courses and podcasts were enough... you'd already be there
You've watched the YouTube tutorials. Listened to the podcasts. Sat in the Facebook groups. Maybe even done a course.
And yet here you are - still not at a million dollars, still not completely sure what to do to get there.
If you've read this far, you already know this is different. You already know this is what you've actually been looking for.
The only question left is whether you're ready to stop guessing - and start seeing what's really going on in your business.
Because the businesses that get to a million dollars aren't the ones doing more. They're the ones who finally know what to do next.
In week one, I had a huge "a-ha" moment when it came to my money. That single moment, changed everything, and I went on to bring in over $60,000 more than my 'best' goal
Last week, I spent only half a day in the store and still increased my weekly revenue! This was the first time I intentionally stayed away (to see what happened) and I was so surprised that everything I'd learnt from the programme, meant that I didn't need to be on my phone constantly, and I made MORE money than I did working in the store.
In a week, I made $32,000 more - just from my best customers. That's the best week I've ever had. And I didn't run any ads or spend any money to achieve it!
I used the Campaign Run Plan to build out a promotion that brought in $20,000 in 48 hours. That's more than I've ever made in a whole week!
We’re making 20% more than last year - even though I initially thought we were behind. Once I really understood the money in my business, and the customers I wanted to activate, I was able to go and create sales campaigns that exceeded my expectations.
Before this, I honestly felt like I was doing what most business owners do - trying things, putting products out there, sending emails… and just hoping something would click. Now it feels completely different. People are buying three, four, even five things at a time… and then they’re coming back for more.
I came in hoping to finally understand what to focus on. I got that - and more than I ever expected. We’re now actively working toward a $2 million revenue goal with structured quarterly campaigns, a team that is growing and I feel so excited about what the future holds.
Once I actually looked at the numbers, I realised there was far more profit in the business than I thought. It gave me such a boost of confidence to finally understand my money, that I now look forward to weekly check-ins with my money - and I NEVER thought I'd say that!
