Grow Your Local Business

How Qianlei built a thriving acupuncture practice from opening to fully booked -- with a 3 month waitlist AND 1 million Instagram followers


Listen Later

I'm sitting down with my student Qianlei Li, a second-generation Traditional Chinese Medicine expert and acupuncturist, who's sharing how she grew her local practice from opening to fully booked with a waitlist in less than 6 months -- then how she's gone on to grow her Instagram to over 1 million followers and launch digital products to a worldwide audience in less than 1.5 years.

She's candidly sharing the mindset shifts that helped her overcome the fear of charging premium rates, navigating the perception of being a "newbie" and even dealing with being ghosted and rejected.

Tune into this episode to learn:

  • How to be more confident in your pricing and stop being apologetic for not being the cheapest option in town
  • How to successfully reach out to local business owners for collaborations -- and how to get their attention when they don't respond
  • How to use trial and error to grow on social media
