Sunday 5 January.
Guys, THIS IS IT. THIS IS THE MOMENT...
I've announced through my socials that the time has come.
🚨🔥 We are announcing the HIGH ACHIEVER OF THE YEAR 2024 this evening.
We've been thinking a lot about the most impactful way to reward and celebrate the success of the member who truly stands out — someone whose journey, consistency, and dedication inspired us all.
We've thought about what we could offer... to celebrate, ENCOURAGE, and HELP MULTIPLY the success of this member...
To keep the momentum going.
And THANK THEM for how much they inspired the entire group, month after month.
And we've found...
As a reminder, each month of 2024, we’ve been selecting ONE 30K+ Plan member as The High Achiever of the Month – to receive a £500 reward.
You guys could submit your progress, the tasks you were working on, your wins, your milestones, your 'BIG' moments, your sales, the results you helped your audience achieve etc... AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WISHED, every month.
This title wasn't based on the amount of money or sales generated but rather on your dedication to growth, your focus, your consistency and drive.
We basically wanted to reward and encourage you to share your journey and progress because people desperately need to SEE it happen every day...
It's so important for others to witness that success is possible and real — and YOU guys were the ones leading the way.
Because to succeed, you DO need the right circle.
You need the right environment.
You need the right support.
And YES – this is rarely the case.
And that holds us back.
But when you see that others are leading the way, you start believing that it’s possible for you, too.
That's why we've been pushing you to show up for the group, document your wins, and keep sharing them.
Sharing what I did and do today, my numbers, my lifestyle, and all of that is good. BUT when YOU do, it has a different impact. 🔥
As we wrap up 2024, an absolutely incredible year, and step into 2025 STRONGER AND DETERMINED THAN EVER, I want to take a moment to celebrate each and every one of us who has been actively part of this crazy 30K+ Plan journey so far.
Whether you’re just starting out on your plans or have already seen huge wins, you’ve all taken steps towards A NEW LIFE of service, dedication and focus towards your own audience!
You've ALL experienced massive growth – without ANY exception.
From incredible sales milestones to brand-new launches, personal breakthroughs, and everything in between — I am so proud of what we’ve achieved together.
Choosing a winner was no easy task because there were SO MANY inspiring success stories to document and celebrate...
But there was one story that particularly stood out.
A story of relentless effort throughout the year, big wins, and continuous massive growth...
🔥🔥 SO... THE TITLE OF HIGH ACHIEVER OF THE YEAR 2024 GOES TO...
→ 30K+ PLAN MEMBER: ALLY ARIELA
Her growth BEFORE/AFTER implementing and using the 30K+ Plan™ is extremely inspiring.
Here’s some of what she accomplished in 2024:
🔥 Hit over $108k in revenue this past year (compared to $13.4k last year in 2023).
🔥 Orders went up 900% to 10.5k orders.
🔥 Visits went up almost 700% to 349.8k visits.
👉 Hit over $108k in revenue this past year (compared to $13.4k last year in 2023)
👉 900% increase in orders
👉 700% growth in visits to her shop (349.8k visits!)
👉 Refined and optimised 700 listings to boost conversions and performance
👉 Reached 1,000 listings on Etsy
👉 Launched a thriving email list, now nearing 400 subscribers
👉 Hit 13,000+ total sales on Etsy (from 1,500 before joining the 30K+ Plan)

This was in May...
This, in August...
This December...
From her Etsy alone, last year...
To this year...
But it’s not just about numbers.
Ally put in the work – day after day, month after month.
She found the ETSY OPTIMISATION tasks BORING and TEDIOUS, refined ALL her listings properly as per the plan, and did it anyway.
She HATED email marketing, implemented the 'storyselling' method, and did it anyway. And has now a solid conversion rate.
She didn't have a website, BUILT AND OPTIMISED HERS, and did it anyway. And starts now to rank and sell from organic SEO.
A sale can ONLY be made when there is an exchange of value between a seller and a buyer – a trade of money for a SOLUTION to a PROBLEM they have that they need to be fixed...
And she understood this perfectly.
She's implementing the plan – And still has a lot more to do and implement so this is just the beginning! 🔥😌
1️⃣ ONE clear problem to solve:
We defined that ONE problem to solve and the transformation to deliver. She helps DIY brides plan their wedding stress-free on a budget with easy-to-use and editable digital templates for everything they need through printable matching collections.
2️⃣ ONE MAIN solution:
She created ONE solution = Custom/Editable Bundle that includes engagement invitations, save the dates to wedding invites, table cards, programs, thank you cards, seating charts, welcome signs, wedding games, planners, and more.
3️⃣ A strong sales system:
She built a sales system with Bestselling 'Perfect Match' Etsy listings and Social media content that promotes it properly using my 'storyselling' framework and methodology – to drive daily traffic and sales to it.
To honour Ally’s crazy growth and entire journey, here’s what she’ll receive as our High Achiever of the Year:
🎁 A brand-new top-of-the-range Apple MacBook
🎫 2 round-trip tickets to the first-ever Upstrider® Live Bootcamp in Dubai, including travel, a 2-night stay, and unforgettable activities with me and the Upstrider team! (date to be confirmed)
🌟 A featured case study on our website with her affiliate link to help others achieve success through the 30K Plan for her to earn high commission on each sale made through her link
Ally, you’ve set the bar high, and we couldn’t be prouder to have you in this 30K+/month community.
To everyone else: YOU are part of this incredible story, too. The wins, the progress, and the growth we’ve seen this year have been beyond inspiring.
If Ally’s journey tells us anything, it’s that big goals are within your reach.
So as we step into 2025, take this as a reminder: stick to the plan, put in the work, and remember why you started.
This community is here for you every step of the way.
I am here for you.
WE are here for you.
The journey doesn't stop here. For none of us.
Get ready though... because 2025 is going to be even bigger.
It's actually just getting started...
TO MORE. TO BIGGER. TO BETTER.
