Kicking off our new series on intellectual property (IP), Léa opens up about what it looks like to bet on someone else's proven offer instead of creating your own. With zero money down and a royalty rate that started at 20% and eased down to 16% as her revenue climbed, Léa leaned on partner campaigns to grow her monthly recurring revenue from $2,868 to $10,563. That income became her launchpad into brick and mortar, funding a rent-to-own deal on a 14-room inn in Quebec — also without a traditional down payment. Léa proves that the fastest way to revenue isn't always building from scratch.
