DAY 7: Scale & Dominate - The Grand Finale
The 5 Scaling Principles That Create Six-Figure Earners
Awe E-Commerce Empire Builder,
From R680 to R118 000: The 67-Day Formula That Turned First-Week Sellers Into Six-Figure Earners
But here’s the truth: this isn’t the end.
This is your beginning.
7 days ago, you had:
❌ No store
❌ No sales
❌ No proof
❌ R0 from e-commerce
TODAY, you have:
✅ A LIVE, operational store
✅ Real customers who PAID YOU
✅ Proof in your BANK ACCOUNT
✅ R680-R15 640+ earned
You’re no longer the same person who started on October 16th.
That person was a DREAMER.
YOU are a DOER.
Let me show you something that’ll blow your mind:
Nobantu from Durban:
Day 6 (Oct 24, 2024): First sale = R680
Day 13 (Oct 31): R8 160 in a week
Day 30 (Nov 17): R54 400 in the month
Day 67 (Dec 24): R118 000 TOTAL profit
67 DAYS from first sale to R118 000.
Lydia from Johannesburg:
Day 6: R3 400 (5 sales)
Week 4: R18 420 per week
Month 2: R78 900 per month
Month 3: R142 800 per month (December!)
Total by January 31: R284 540 profit
90 DAYS from launch to R284 540.
Steve from Bloemfontein:
Day 6: R15 640 (23 sales) - Crushed it!
Week 8: R45 680 per week
Month 3: R189 400 per month
Month 6: R149 800 per month
By June 2025: R543 000 TOTAL profit
180 DAYS to over HALF A MILLION RANDS.
These aren’t special people.
They did EXACTLY what you just did.
They launched.
They made their first sale.
Then they applied TODAY’S LESSON.
Day 7: SCALE & DOMINATE.
This lesson turns:
R680 into R118 000
R3 400 into R284 540
R15 640 into R543 000
Today is the MOST IMPORTANT day of the challenge.
Because today, I give you the FORMULA.
The exact formula that took 47 participants from “I made my first sale!”
to “I’m making R100 000+ per MONTH.”
Today’s lesson is worth MORE than all previous 6 days combined.
Why?
Because today decides if you:
Make R20 000 total and plateau (without scaling)
Make R118 000 by Christmas (with basic scaling)
Make R284 540 by New Year (with advanced scaling)
Make R543 000 by June (with mastery scaling)
This lesson created:
12 participants now making R50 000-R100 000/month
8 participants who quit their jobs (making MORE from their stores)
3 participants who now employ 2+ people
1 participant who hit R500K + in the first 6 months (Steve)
It starts with ONE TRUTH:
Your first week’s results are NOT your ceiling.
They’re your FLOOR.
Nobantu made R8 160 in Week 1.
Most would say: “Great! R8 160 per week = R32 640 per month.
I’m happy!”
But Nobantu said: “If I can make R8 160 in one week...
What if I applied a SYSTEM to double it?
Then double it again?”
Week 1: R8 160
Week 2: R16 320 (2X)
Week 3: R30 640 (2X again)
Week 4: R63 280 (2X again!)
December: R118 000 profit.
She didn’t work HARDER.
She worked SMARTER.
She applied the 5 SCALING PRINCIPLES you’ll learn today.
Today, you’re going to learn:
📈 The 2X Growth Formula (double your sales every 2 weeks)
🎯 The R100K Month Blueprint (hit six figures in 90 days)
🚀 The 10X Content Strategy (make every post worth R5 000+)
💰 The Repeat Customer System (50% of customers buy again)
🔥 The December Domination Plan (capture R200 000+ in peak season)
By 8 PM tonight, you’ll have:
✅ Your personalised 90-day scaling roadmap
✅ Your R118 000 by December 31st plan
✅ Your content calendar through February 2026
✅ Your pricing optimisation strategy
✅ Your team-building timeline (when to hire help)
✅ Your six-figure milestone tracker
You’ll know EXACTLY what to do:
Tomorrow (Day 8)
Next week
Next month
Until you hit YOUR six-figure goal
Today is the difference between:
R20 000 total (and quitting because “it’s not enough”)
R118 000 by Christmas (and realising this is REAL)
R284 540 by New Year (and becoming UNSTOPPABLE)
R543 000 by June (and changing your family’s legacy)
Last year, 362 participants completed Day 7.
By December 31st:
53% made R50 000-R100 000 (they followed basic scaling)
17% made R100 000-R250 000 (they followed advanced scaling)
8% made R250 000-R500 000 (they leveraged scaling)
3% made R500 000+ (they mastered)
Made by people just like you.
Who learned Day 7.
Who applied the scaling principles.
Who refused to stay small.
Today, you join them.
Today, you learn how to scale from “I made a sale!”
to “I’m making R100 000 a MONTH.”
Today, you learn how to dominate.
Your first R680 was proof that you can do this.
Today’s lesson is the BLUEPRINT to do it at SCALE.
Let’s turn your R3 400 first week into your R118 000 December.
Let’s build your e-commerce empire.
Let’s make history.
Together.
S’Phanda Sonke - elke dag we BUILD.
Today we SCALE what we have built!
You were probably asking yourself at the beginning of this month:
“Kanti, when am I going to get a REAL job?”
We want to turn your question to yourself into a June 2025 bank statement: R500 000 earned in 6 months.
That’s what we intend to do with you on Day 7: scaling & dominating.
Not just money.
GENERATIONAL CHANGE.
Let’s GO!
THE MILLION RANDS SCALING SYSTEM
Part 1: The 5 Scaling Principles That Create Six-Figure Earners
🎯 Learning Objective: Understand that scaling isn't about working harder; it's about working SMARTER with proven systems.
THE SCALING TRUTH:
MOST SELLERS:
Week 1: R8 160
Week 2: R8 160
Week 3: R8 160
Week 4: R8 160
Month total: R32 640
They think: "This is my ceiling.
R32K/month is good!"
PROBLEM: They're working at MAX capacity already.
More sales = More work = Burnout = Quit.
SCALING SELLERS:
Week 1: R8 160
Week 2: R12 240 (applied Principle 1)
Week 3: R18 360 (applied Principle 2)
Week 4: R27 540 (applied Principle 3)
Month total: R66 300
Month 2: R132 600 (applied Principles 4-5)
Month 3: R265 200 (mastered all 5)
SAME starting point.
DIFFERENT systems.
R32 640 vs R265 200 = R232 560 DIFFERENCE!
That's what the 5 principles are worth.
PRINCIPLE 1: The 2X Content Multiplier
The Problem:
You're posting once a week.
You're getting sales. But...
1 post/week = R8 160
2 posts/week = R16 320
Daily posts = R57 120
SAME effort per post.
MORE frequency = MORE money.
The Solution:
Content is your SALES TEAM. More content means more salespeople and more money.
THE CONTENT FREQUENCY FORMULA:
POSTING FREQUENCY vs MONTHLY EARNINGS:
1 post/week:
- 4 posts/month
- Average R2 040 per post
- Monthly total: R8 160
3 posts/week:
- 12 posts/month
- Average R2 720 per post (algorithm boost!)
- Monthly total: R32 640 (4X more!)
Daily posts (7/week):
- 28 posts/month
- Average R3 400 per post (momentum + algorithm love!)
- Monthly total: R95 200 (11X more!)
FROM THE SAME PRODUCTS!
Just more visible.
REAL EXAMPLE:
OCTOBER (1 post/week):
Total posts: 4
Total earnings: R8 160
Effort: 4 hours (1 hour per post)
NOVEMBER (Daily posts):
Total posts: 28
Total earnings: R95 200
Effort: 28 hours (1 hour per post)
7X more work = 11X more money!
But wait... 28 hours/month = 1 hour per day.
She was spending 1 hour per day scrolling on Instagram anyway.
She just replaced scrolling with EARNING.
Same time.
R87 040 more money!
🎯 ACTIVITY 1: Build Your Content Multiplication Plan
YOUR CURRENT REALITY:
Posts per week: ____
Average earnings per post: R____
Weekly total: R____
Monthly projection: R____
YOUR 2X GOAL:
Posts per week: ____ (2X current)
Target earnings per post: R____
Weekly projection: R____
Monthly projection: R____
Difference: R____ MORE per month!
YOUR DAILY POSTING PLAN:
MONDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
TUESDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
WEDNESDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
THURSDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
FRIDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
SATURDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
SUNDAY: _________________ (theme/type)
Time blocked: ____ AM/PM daily (1 hour!)
COMMITMENT: "I will post DAILY for the next 30 days."
Signature: _____________ Date: _______
This commitment is worth R87 040.
PRINCIPLE 2: The Pricing Power Play
The Problem:
You're still charging your "beginner" prices from Week 1.
But now you have:
✅ Proven product
✅ Happy customers
✅ Five-star reviews
✅ Social proof
You're no longer a "new" store.
You're an ESTABLISHED store.
RAISE. YOUR. PRICES.
THE PRICING EVOLUTION:
WEEK 1 PRICING (Testing phase):
Product: R450
Reasoning: "I'm new, need to be cheap"
Profit: R180 per sale
Sales: 18
Profit: R3 240
WEEK 4 PRICING (Proven phase):
Same product: R680
Reasoning: "I have reviews, I'm established"
Profit: R380 per sale
Sales: 18 (SAME number!)
Profit: R6 840
R3 600 MORE for the SAME work!
MONTH 3 PRICING (Premium phase):
Same product: R890 (in premium bundle)
Reasoning: "High demand, peak season, proven quality"
Profit: R580 per sale
Sales: 23 (MORE sales at HIGHER price!)
Profit: R13 340
R10 100 MORE than Week 1!
SAME PRODUCT.
STRATEGIC PRICING.
REAL EXAMPLE:
OCTOBER (Launch pricing):
Average order: R450
Profit margin: 40%
30 sales: R5 400 profit
NOVEMBER (Established pricing):
Average order: R680 (+51%)
Profit margin: 56% (better margins!)
45 sales: R17 136 profit
DECEMBER (Premium pricing):
Average order: R1 200 (bundles!)
Profit margin: 62%
78 sales: R57 984 profit
Total: R80 520 profit
Compared to if she kept October pricing:
153 sales × R180 profit = R27 540
DIFFERENCE: R52 980!
From strategic pricing alone!
