Mini sessions can be chaotic, low-profit, and exhausting—or they can be one of the smartest revenue strategies in your business. In this episode of The Work Between, we’re showing you how we’ve used mini sessions to generate $40K+ months without burning out. You’ll learn how to align minis with your full-service brand, what to charge, how to upsell with intention, and how to use minis as a funnel for long-term clients.
