The leap from 7 to 8 figures isn’t about working harder—it’s about thinking differently.
Here’s what the top apparel CEOs do that others don’t:
1. They Stop Building Products and Start Building Systems
Product drives revenue; systems drive scale.
2. They Hire Ahead of the Curve
Waiting until you’re desperate guarantees a bad hire.
3. They Track Profit, Not Popularity
The best sellers aren’t always the best earners.
The Next Step
