How I’m Growing Recurring Revenue in a Service-Based Business (237K ARR in 6 MONTHS!!!)
Annual recurring revenue is not just for SaaS companies. Service-based businesses need ARR too.
In this episode, I’m talking about how founders, consultants, agencies, contractors, coaches, and service providers can grow recurring revenue without only chasing more clients every month. The real growth comes from building a stronger offer, creating a better client experience, raising prices with real value behind it, adding aligned upsells, and getting serious about outcomes, deliverables, and results.
I also break down what worked for us as a small startup: using trials of a higher-tier service to let clients experience the full value upfront. Instead of just asking for a higher price, we showed clients how much time, structure, communication, and growth support they would lose if they went backward.
If you run a service business and want more predictable revenue, better retention, stronger pricing power, and clients who see you as more than a vendor, this episode is for you.
