The Cracker Barrel Logo Disaster: The Business & Spiritual Lessons It Teaches Us as Christian Women in Online Business [Ep #177]

The Cracker Barrel Logo Disaster: 4 Kingdom Business Lessons Every Entrepreneur Needs to Know
What happens when a $100 million mistake comes down to a single logo change? In this episode, we dive deep into Cracker Barrel's recent branding meltdown that sparked social media chaos, political commentary, and a massive stock plummeting. But this isn't just about logos or restaurant chains, it's about identity, connection, and your kingdom calling in business.
Kristin breaks down the four critical mistakes Cracker Barrel made when they stripped away their iconic Uncle Herschel logo, and how you can avoid these pitfalls in your own business. More importantly, she explores what God's word says about legacy, authenticity, and emotional connection, revealing why your online business isn't just a brand—it's a kingdom assignment.
What Happened: The Cracker Barrel Fiasco Timeline
August 19th: Cracker Barrel unveiled a new minimalist logo, removing the iconic Uncle Herschel imagery that had been part of their identity since 1977
Within Hours: Fierce customer backlash erupted across social media
Within Days: Stock plummeted 12%, wiping out nearly $100 million in value
Politicians Weighed In: High-profile figures including President Trump demanded the logo return
Within a Week: Cracker Barrel issued a public apology and promised to restore the original logo
4 Critical Business Lessons from the Disaster
Lesson 1: Talk to Your Customers
Scripture Reference: Proverbs 15:22 - "Without counsel, plans fail, but with many advisors, they succeed."
Cracker Barrel failed to conduct adequate focus groups or customer surveys
The immediate, massive backlash indicated they didn't test with their loyal customer base
Action Item: Always gather customer feedback through surveys, polls, and beta launches before major changes
Lesson 2: Stay True to Your Identity
The original logo wasn't just design—it carried story, nostalgia, and tradition
Erasing the logo erased part of who they were as a brand
Kingdom Perspective: Your business identity should be rooted in Christ, not cultural trends
Action Item: Maintain your core values and unique God-given differentiator
Lesson 3: Emotion Sells
Key Quote: "People will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
Customers weren't debating the food—they were responding to how the logo made them feel
People buy transformation, story, and emotion, not just products
Kingdom Twist: We're not selling products, we're stewarding encounters that carry the fragrance of Christ
Lesson 4: Quick Corrections Build Trust
Scripture Reference: James 5:16 - "Confess your faults to one another that you may be healed."
Cracker Barrel moved fast to correct their mistake within a week
Transparency and quick action actually restored confidence
Action Item: Own mistakes quickly, apologize genuinely, and make things right
Spiritual Lessons Through a Kingdom Lens
Ancient Landmarks Matter
Scripture Reference: Proverbs 22:28 - "Do not remove the ancient landmarks that your fathers have set."
Don't abandon foundational truths just to appear modern
Preserve the core elements that anchor your identity in Christ
Identity Over Imitation
Scripture Reference: Romans 12:2 - Calls us to be transformed, not conformed
The world pushes conformity, but God calls us to distinctiveness
Your unique God-given differentiator shouldn't be watered down for trends
Eternal Return on Investment
Build businesses that point back to Him
Every mistake is a stepping stone to success and spiritual growth
Make decisions anchored in kingdom values: authenticity, service, and stewardship
Key Takeaways for Kingdom Women Entrepreneurs
Seek Godly Counsel: Before major decisions, consult your "heavenly board of directors" first
Reflect Your Identity in Christ: Ask if changes truly reflect who you are in Him
Maintain Core Values: Ensure decisions align with the values you're bringing into your business
Create Intentional Feelings: Consider what emotions you want clients to experience
Personal Connection
Kristin shares her family's deep connection to Cracker Barrel—how her grandparents would travel from Michigan to Florida each winter, stopping at every Cracker Barrel along the way. She reflects on childhood memories of exploring the antique farming equipment and learning family history, showing how the brand represented far more than just a restaurant.
Final Challenge
Your business isn't just a logo, website, or product—it's a kingdom assignment. As kingdom women called to online business, you're meant to:
Shift paradigms
Break strongholds
Create kingdom wealth
Impact eternity
When you steward your kingdom assignment well, it doesn't just grow revenue—it creates an eternal ripple effect on this side of heaven.

How a Stay-at-Home Mom Built 120 Franchises from Her Living Room with Rhea Lana [Ep. #176]

The Humble Beginning: When Passion Meets Purpose
Rhea Lana’s story began nearly 30 years ago. A stay-at-home mom with three little ones and a tight budget, she found herself craving cute clothes for her kids but couldn’t afford new ones. Like many of us, she discovered a love for secondhand shopping—but at the time, the experience left much to be desired.
So she created her own.
“I just wanted something better. I wanted my friends to feel special, even while shopping secondhand,” Rhea Lana shared.
She organized her first consignment sale in her living room—meticulously washed and ironed everything, cleared out the furniture, and welcomed 11 moms who entrusted her with their items. It wasn’t just a garage sale; it was a boutique experience. But here’s the truth bomb: no one came.
When No One Shows Up
That first sale? A total flop. Not because the idea was bad—but because she hadn’t learned yet how to invite people in. “I thought if I made it perfect enough, they would come,” she said. But God had other plans—plans that involved stepping way out of her comfort zone.
So she picked up the phone, called those 11 consignors, apologized, and asked to keep their items for one more week. She learned, adapted, marketed differently—and tried again.
And that’s a major takeaway for us all: Failure isn’t the end. It’s the beginning of becoming.
Harmony Over Hustle: Navigating Seasons as a Mom & CEO
As a woman of faith and a mom, Rhea Lana doesn’t shy away from the tension of “doing it all.” She reminds us that life is lived in seasons. You won’t do everything all at once—and you’re not meant to. Instead, she encourages women to:
Prioritize what matters now
Declutter physically and mentally
Let go of what’s weighing you down
Lean into unexpected skills God reveals along the way
Her journey didn’t start with a business degree or financial training. “I didn’t know I could do marketing or numbers,” she said. “But I discovered those gifts after I stepped out.”
That’s key: You don’t have to know it all to begin. You just have to begin.
Encouragement for the Woman on the Fence
If you’re listening and feeling that nudge to start your own thing—but fear is whispering “you’re not enough”—Rhea Lana has a message for you:
“You have to figure out your why. When your reason to keep going is stronger than your fear of rejection, that’s where transformation happens.”
She shared how teaching a summer tennis camp once left her with zero profit—a painful but powerful lesson that propelled her to learn about money, margins, and the real difference between passion projects and businesses.
That bold honesty is such a gift to us.
How to Find Your Passion When You’re Not Sure
So what if you’re sitting there thinking, “I don’t even know what my passion is?” Rhea Lana suggests asking:
Where do you already see fruit in your life?
What keeps drawing you in?
What do others thank you for?
What feels energizing—not draining—even if it’s hard?
And sometimes? The clues are hidden in the parts of your day you dismiss as “normal.” That thing you do without thinking? That might be your God-given genius zone waiting to be activated.
Final Wisdom
Rhea Lana is now 60 and still learning, still growing, still pressing forward in faith. And that’s the heartbeat of this episode: You’re never too early or too late to start.
Let this be your reminder today:
You don’t need to have it all figured out to move forward. Just be willing to say yes to the next step God places in front of you.
Whether that’s organizing a small event in your living room, launching an online offer, or teaching your kids with excellence—it matters. And your obedience can lead to an impact far beyond what you can currently imagine.
Thank you, Rhea Lana, for your authenticity, wisdom, and faith. You’ve reminded us that every great journey begins with one faithful step—and sometimes, three racks of secondhand clothes.

Episode Summary
If you’ve ever spent months creating an online course, coaching program, or membership, only to launch it and hear crickets, you are not alone. Many Kingdom women entrepreneurs fall into the trap of overbuilding before testing demand.
In this episode of the Kingdom Business Revolution Podcast, business coach and strategist Kristin Dronchi shares the Beta Launch Method — a proven pre-sell strategy that helps Christian entrepreneurs validate their business ideas, test offers with real paying clients, and launch online programs with confidence.
You’ll learn how to avoid failed launches, confirm market desire, and co-create with your founding members so that your course or program meets the exact needs of your ideal audience.

💡 What the Beta Launch Method is and why it’s the smartest course launch strategy.
📊 How to validate your business idea and confirm market desire with real clients.
🔑 Why pre-selling your program (monetize before you make it) is the fastest way to generate revenue.
🤝 How to use founding member programs for feedback, exclusivity, and community building.
📌 A simple pre-launch checklist to test your offer without complicated funnels or big audiences.
“The only real validation of your offer is when someone hands you money for it.”
“Testing your offer isn’t optional—it’s essential stewardship of the idea God has given you.”
 
Your Quick-Start Beta Launch Checklist
Ready to test your idea using the beta launch method? Here's how to get started:
1. Create a Priority Wait List Page
Craft a clear, bold promise
Define who your program is for
Explain how it will help them
Describe the transformation they'll experience
2. Invite Founding Members at a Special Investment
Offer limited spots for intimacy and ethical urgency
Price it significantly lower than your future full program price
3. Deliver a Live Experience
Host live sessions on Zoom with Q&A time
Or record one session at a time, allowing for implementation between sessions
Meet regularly for coaching, feedback, and questions
Keep it simple—simplicity sells
The Beauty of Starting Simple
You don't need a huge email list, elaborate funnels, or perfect sales pages to launch a beta program. I've successfully run beta tests for my Business by God's Design program, Summits with Impact, Bundles with Impact, and the Idea to Income 30-Day Sprint using this method.
All you need is:
Clarity on your offer and who it serves
Confidence in your ability to deliver transformation
Courage to bring your dream to life instead of hiding in perfectionism
Stop Duct-Taping Your Business Together
If you've been collecting free resources, digital products gathering dust, and outdated strategies that aren't working in today's market, it's time for a change. The fastest path to clarity, confidence, motivation, and cash flow is the beta launch method.
Your Next Step: From Idea to Income
The beta launch method isn't about becoming a millionaire in two months. It's about being a good steward of the gifts God has given you. It's about testing, validating, and refining your offer with real paying clients instead of building in a vacuum and hoping for the best.
When you use this method, you're not just creating a program—you're building a sustainable, profitable business by God's design. You're generating revenue while you create, gathering invaluable feedback, and ensuring that when you do launch to a wider audience, you have something people actually want and need.

3 Steps to Reset Your Faith-Based Business in 2025 [EP 173]

Midyear Business Reset for Christian Women Entrepreneurs: You're Not Behind, You're Right on Time
Originally published from Kingdom Revolution Podcast Episode - June 3, 2025
Can I be totally transparent with you? The month of May flew by for me, and if you've been feeling anything like I have—a little bit heavy, wondering if you're making real progress in your business—this message is for you.
As Christian women entrepreneurs, we often find ourselves carrying burdens that were never meant to be ours. What once felt exciting and full of purpose in our business can start to feel like pressure, especially when we're not seeing the results we hoped for by now.
But here's what I want you to know: You're not behind. You are not disqualified. You're right on time for a midyear reset and breakthrough.
The Reality of Building a Kingdom Business
While supporting my amazing clients inside the Kingdom Business Revolution and Business by God's Design Academy this month, I've been reminded of something powerful: taking messy, faith-filled action forward is exactly how clarity comes.
In the beginning, we don't know what we're doing. We just know there was a Holy Spirit pivot—that moment where we knew we were called to the online business space, that God was calling us to more. We had this dream, this desire inside to bring forth our area of expertise and create a business that generates both income and impact.
If you're a woman called to online business, I wholeheartedly believe that God is calling you to rise up and step onto the business battlefield. You're not only called to create impact with those you serve—your online business IS the battlefield where you get to show up and change broken and corrupt systems, wreak havoc on the darkness of this world, shift paradigms, and break strongholds.
Why Spring is Your New Beginning
Here's something that might shift your perspective entirely: our worldly calendar isn't our Heavenly Father's calendar. While the world tells us New Year's resolutions should have been accomplished by now, God's calendar works differently.
New Year's in the biblical calendar is actually springtime—when the world starts to wake up from its hibernation over winter. We have things backward when we follow the world's way. God's way is so much easier. His burden is light, and His yoke is easy.
Right now, we're just moving into springtime on the Lord's calendar. It's the beginning of a new year. The leaves are coming back on the trees, the grass is becoming green, and everything is coming alive again.
This is the beginning of a new season in your business. If those thoughts of "I thought I'd be so much further along by now" have crept into your mind, I want to lovingly remind you:
You're not behind
You are not disqualified
You may have disqualified yourself, but the Lord has qualified you
You are anointed for the business battlefield
You're not too late
Your journey is your journey
Three Simple Ways to Refocus and Realign with God's Design
1. Revisit Your God-Given Vision
God planted those seeds for your business in your heart. What did He speak to you before the marketing plans, before the gurus said to do this and that, before you kept changing strategies, before the overwhelm, before the comparison crept in?
What was that vision God put on your heart?
Go back to that place, write it down, and speak it out loud. As Habakkuk 2:2 says, "Write the vision and make it plain, so those that hear it can run after it."
Let the Holy Spirit breathe fresh wind and fresh encouragement into what may feel dry, burdened, or dusty. God didn't change His mind. He called you. He has a purpose for your online business.
Sometimes the clarity we crave isn't a new idea—it's remembering the vision and dream He already gave us.
2. Clarify Your Assignment for This Season
As moms and women, we go through different seasons, and you're not called to carry everything in every season. But you ARE called to do something, and that something may shift from season to season.
Maybe you've been trying to do too much—offering too many things, speaking to too many people, juggling too many platforms, trying to be everywhere on social media, or cranking out freebie after freebie hoping to gain traction.
Social media is not a business growth plan. That's a fast track to burnout and confusion.
A business that is by God's design is not a business of chaos—it's clarity. And clarity starts with what I call the Power of One framework:
One problem you're anointed to solve
One person you're uniquely called to serve
One offer that truly transforms
One clear path for growth and impact
One promise rooted in kingdom purpose
When you align with His focus, not the world's pressure, your business becomes lighter, simpler, and far more fruitful.
Clarity produces confidence, and confidence fuels the momentum you need. But remember—clarity comes from taking action, not from thinking about taking action.
Ask God: "What is my assignment right now in this season? What is that one problem You've equipped me to solve? Who are You calling me to serve?"
3. Renew Your Rhythms
Sometimes it's not the vision that's off—it's the pace you're running at. Maybe you've been running on fumes, feeling disconnected, pushing without pausing, neglecting your self-care, and not spending time with your Heavenly Board of Directors.
Kingdom businesses that are profitable, successful, and sustainable aren't built through hustle culture. They're built through spending time with the Holy Spirit and your Heavenly Board of Directors.
What if your next level of growth doesn't come from more output or doing more? What if it comes from renewed rhythms?
Rhythms of rest
Rhythms of prayer
Rhythms of planning
Rhythms of being present with your Heavenly Father
Let Him guide you back to a place where your business feels light again—not because the work is easy (I know growing a business is hard), but because His yoke is easy when it's shared and we're in alignment.
Strategy is important, but what's more important is strategy with surrender and being in alignment with your kingdom calling. That's where sustainable, spirit-led growth lives for your business by God's design.
The Power of Kingdom Collaboration
Let me share something exciting that happened during my focus on lead generation this month. While putting together the Mic Drop and Juice Boxes private audio podcast summit, my email list grew by 150 amazing women in just one week—and that was only week one of promotion!
This happened through kingdom collaboration strategies—building relationships and leveraging partnerships to add value to other people's audiences. This is how you can significantly grow your email list without being a slave to social media.
Kingdom relationships and collaboration strategies are where sustainable growth happens. It's about serving others first and building genuine connections in the faith-based business community.
Your Next Steps Forward
If you're on the edge of your dream, afraid to say yes, if you've drifted from God's initial calling on your life or business, or if you're second-guessing that stir of the Holy Spirit inside you and waiting to say yes until you feel ready—here's the truth:
You're never going to feel ready. God isn't asking for perfection. He's simply asking for you to move.
For each of you, that next step looks different:
For some, it's time to grab that dream off the shelf that scares you and step into your calling
For others, you need to uplevel yourself by hiring a coach or mentor
Some need to spend time with your Heavenly Board of Directors to determine what that next step is
But whatever it is, clarity doesn't come from striving harder or checking off boxes and trying to do all the things. It comes from surrendering, going deep, spending time with your Heavenly Board of Directors, and taking faith-filled steps of obedience forward.
You Are Here for a Reason
You are here to take back territory that the enemy has stolen. If your business has been starting to feel like a struggle, and those priorities in your life are starting to feel like a burden, it's time to lay everything back at Jesus's feet and realign with God's design for your business.
Remember: You are anointed for the business battlefield. You're called to create kingdom wealth so you can give more, bless more, create that nonprofit, or change those broken and corrupt systems you want to change on this side of heaven.
Your online business is your opportunity to create that eternal impact and ripple effect the Lord wants you to create on this side of heaven.
Moving Forward in Faith
As we move into this biblical springtime, this new season, I want you to hold onto this truth: Your journey is your journey, and you're right on time.
We don't have a fancy plan. We don't have everything mapped out. But you get to be obedient and trust the Lord for your next steps. And sometimes that means hiring someone who can help you go faster—someone who's in alignment with your vision and values.
The frustration of "I thought I would be so much further by now" is from the enemy. Don't let him stop you or hinder you from stepping into your calling.
It's time for kingdom women warrior entrepreneurs to rise up and say, "No more am I going to let the enemy stop me from stepping into my calling."
The time is now. You are ready. God has qualified you.

Surrendering Finances to the Holy Spirit: A New Path to True Financial Freedom with Heather Day
When it comes to finances, we are bombarded with advice: budget better, invest wisely, work harder. But what if there’s a deeper dimension we’ve been missing all along?
Today on the Kingdom Revolution Podcast, we welcome Heather Day, author of the newly released book Money and Spirit. Heather challenges the traditional narratives around money and offers a refreshing perspective: true financial transformation doesn’t begin with spreadsheets or budgets—it begins with surrender.
Through Money and Spirit, Heather invites us to explore how our spiritual lives are deeply connected to our material resources—and why surrendering our finances to the Holy Spirit is key for lasting change.
Why This Matters for Christian Women in Business
As Christian women called to create kingdom wealth, money is a tool God uses through us—to bless more, give more, and bring change to broken and corrupt systems. Yet many of us unknowingly operate from places of fear, anxiety, or misplaced priorities when it comes to finances.
Heather’s message is clear: God cares about the areas of our lives that keep us in bondage—including money. And He longs to set us free.
Meet Heather Day
Heather is a wife, a mom of two, a full-time working professional, and a passionate ministry leader. As a pastor’s kid, Heather grew up with the assurance of God’s love, but her journey has shown her that surrender is a lifelong process—even in the realm of finances.
Heather shared how the inspiration for Money and Spirit came through a simple but powerful prayer during a meeting at the Barnabas Foundation. A moment of spiritual "stuckness" birthed a movement—what started as a Bible study concept eventually evolved into a book that would encourage countless others.
Money Struggles: A Spiritual Issue?
In Christian circles, we often talk about surrendering our relationships, our futures, and our dreams to God. But money? That's often treated as off-limits.Heather points out that when we ignore the spiritual root behind our money struggles, we end up only treating symptoms like overspending, hoarding, fear, or anxiety—without ever addressing the deeper spiritual misalignments.
If our financial behaviors reflect fear, mistrust, or misplaced identity, it’s a clear signal: there’s a heart issue that God wants to heal.
Recognizing the Symptoms and Getting to the Root
If you're feeling that ding-ding-ding of recognition right now, you're not alone. So where do you start?Heather recommends two key first steps:
Prayer of Surrender: Invite God into your finances. Acknowledge that you can’t do it alone and ask Him to lead.
Prayer of Examination: Ask God to search your heart and reveal where fear, pride, anxiety, or misplaced trust might be guiding your financial decisions.
From there, allow God’s Spirit to guide you into freedom—whether that's addressing overspending, fear of not having enough, or unhealthy attachments to wealth.
Heather’s Personal Journey: Lessons from the Trenches
Heather openly shares that even as she wrote Money and Spirit, God was still working on her heart. She described a personal moment when a broken fridge almost spiraled into an impulsive decision to finance an entire new kitchen. It was a sobering reminder that even when we think we've "arrived," surrender is ongoing.
True freedom comes not from achieving perfection, but from constantly inviting God into the everyday decisions.
For the Overwhelmed and Ashamed: A Message of Hope
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or ashamed of your current financial situation, hear this: You are not alone.Heather reminds us that shame is one of the enemy’s biggest tools. The truth is that bringing our struggles into the light—through prayer, through honest conversations with a spouse, mentor, or trusted guide—is where healing begins.
It starts with surrender, continues with obedience, and flourishes in community. God is not asking for your perfection—He’s asking for your heart.

Reviving Your Failed Launch: Strategies for Christian Women in Online Business [Ep. 171]

From Crickets to Conversions: Reviving Your Failed Beta Launch | Christian Business Strategy for Online Entrepreneurs
Episode Description
Have you ever had a launch flop? You poured your heart, soul, prayers, and countless hours into creating something you believe God called you to share, only to hear crickets when you launched? In this powerful episode, Kristin shares three proven strategies to revive your beta founding member program without scrapping everything and starting over. Learn how to transform launch disappointment into valuable feedback for your next breakthrough.
In This Episode You'll Learn:
Why a failed beta launch is feedback, not failure
How to revisit and refine your messaging to clearly communicate your offer's value
The importance of building a nurture runway that warms your audience up before launching
Practical steps to relaunch with fresh energy and conviction
Why small, strategic tweaks are better than major overhauls
Key Takeaways:
Revisit Your Messaging: Ensure your offer solves a clear problem using language your ideal client actually understands. Focus on their pain points and desired transformation rather than your processes.
Build a Nurture Runway: Create intentional content that helps your audience recognize their real problem, trust your voice, and desire what your offer delivers before you make your pitch.
Relaunch Strategically: Don't scrap everything - make targeted improvements based on feedback, simplify if needed, and show up with renewed clarity and conviction.
Quotable Moments:
"A flopped beta launch isn't failure. It's feedback."
"Stop describing the process and start reflecting the pain and desire."
"Just because you are ready to launch doesn't mean your audience is ready to buy."
"Your beta launch flopping isn't a red light, it's just a yield sign."

Doubled Her List, Tripled Her Faith Wendy Wallace’s Summit Success Story [Ep 170]

Doubled Her List, Tripled Her Faith Wendy Wallace’s Summit Success Story [Ep 170]
When Wendy Wallace first entered the Summits with Impact program, she was passionate about serving Christian women through her mentorship and digital content. However, she faced a common struggle: growing her email list with the right audience and creating consistent income in her online business.
In this case study, Wendy shares her journey, the transformation she experienced through hosting her first virtual summit, and why she now considers summits an essential part of her ongoing marketing strategy.
You can join Wendy's next Radiant Resilience Summit Here
This event is for you if you want to...
Stop Winging Your Time with God & Live a Life That Honors Him!
Deepen your relationship with the Lord, gain confidence in Him, and grow your faith so that it doesn't waiver when times get hard.
Build a virtuous life that honors Him and brings peace and joy to your family—even in life’s challenges!
Meet Wendy Wallace
Wendy is a Christian mentor and digital content creator who helps women rediscover God’s joy and peace in the midst of life’s trials. Through her work, she empowers women to deepen their faith and biblical knowledge so they can move forward with joy, no matter their circumstances.
Her journey to this mission is deeply personal. In 2011, Wendy contracted a flesh-eating bacteria that put her in a coma for three weeks and led to the amputation of both her hands and feet. She had three teenagers at the time and found herself grappling with a completely transformed life.
"I found my value and purpose in being a mom," Wendy shares. "But when you lose your hands, it changes how you live, and it messed with my head for a long time. Through God's prompting, I realized He wanted me to reach other women who were stuck—who had lost their joy and peace in their own trials."
Today, Wendy uses her experience to mentor others through the challenges of life, reminding them that joy and peace—fruits of the Spirit—are always available through a relationship with Christ.
The Struggles Before Hosting a Virtual Summit
Despite her passion and clear calling, Wendy struggled to grow her business.
"I kept hearing that people needed what I offered, but I couldn’t find them," she explains. "My email list wasn’t growing with the right people. I had subscribers, but they weren't interested in what I was teaching."
Wendy needed a solution that would help her attract an audience genuinely aligned with her message—and ultimately turn her passion into a thriving business.
She had been part of Kristin's Online Business by God’s Design program, and when Kristin introduced Summits with Impact, Wendy felt a spark of hope.
Still, doubts lingered. "As an amputee, everything I do takes more effort—whether it's typing with styluses or using voice-to-text. Hosting a summit felt overwhelming. I knew I could do it, but I wasn’t sure how well."
Enter the Summits with Impact Program
Once inside the program, Wendy realized she had found what she had been missing.
"Hands down, it was the best program I’ve ever taken," Wendy says. "I’ve been blogging since 2018, and I’ve spent so much time and money learning how to serve online. But Summits with Impact was different. Kristen left nothing to the imagination. She gave us a step-by-step system that worked."
Through the program, Wendy was able to:
Clarify her messaging to attract her ideal audience
 
Create a well-organized, seamless event that speakers and attendees raved about
 
Grow her email list by 104%
 
Bring in $4,000 in revenue before the summit even launched
 
"Everything was organized, clear, and simple to follow. I got feedback from attendees and speakers saying how amazing and professional it all was—and that they wanted to know when the next summit would be!"
The Tangible Results
Before hosting her summit, Wendy’s email list hovered around 800 subscribers, despite years of effort.
After implementing the strategies in Summits with Impact, Wendy grew her list by over 100%—with high-quality leads who were truly aligned with her mission.
"I had been stuck for five years. And in just a few months, I doubled my list—and it's continued to grow since then."
Additionally, by offering a VIP All-Access Pass before the event even went live, Wendy generated $4,000 in revenue.
"For the first time, I wasn't just spending money on my business—I was actually generating income. And now, I have a repeatable process I can use for years to come."
The Ripple Effect
Perhaps most powerfully, hosting her summit didn’t just grow Wendy’s list or income—it created a ripple effect.
"Other women were inspired to host their own events. Speakers wanted to collaborate more. Attendees were impacted eternally by the content shared. That’s the kind of Kingdom impact I want my business to have."
Wendy is now planning her next summit and has set the goal to create all the income she needs for the year—with just one event.
Wendy's Advice to Others Considering Summits with Impact
If you’re considering joining Summits with Impact or wondering if a virtual summit could work for your business, Wendy has this advice:
"I don’t think there’s any reason to hesitate. You get far more than you expect. Not only will it grow your audience and provide a cash injection, but it will give you a repeatable system
