Leisa breaks down why most marketing agencies are burning your budget on vanity metrics while your schedule stays half empty — and reveals the business-to-business referral framework that quietly outperforms flashy ad funnels for the majority of medical aesthetic practices.
Got a toxic team member sinking your culture? Leisa breaks down how to terminate strategically—without drama, legal headaches, or a scorched-earth exit. Short, sharp, and designed to get you into CEO energy fast.
