What if your med spa had no address, no lease, and no waiting room, and was still fully booked?

Michelle Chapman is a nurse practitioner who threw out the traditional med spa playbook entirely. Instead of four walls and a reception desk, she built her entire aesthetic practice inside a custom converted Mercedes-Benz van she calls Big Bertha. No brick and mortar. No overhead. Just Botox, fillers, and a whole lot of flexibility. This episode is proof that there is no one right way to build a thriving aesthetic practice.

In this episode:

  • How Michelle went from Atlanta to Florida with no established patient base and built a fully booked mobile aesthetic clinic almost entirely through Instagram
  • What the inside of Big Bertha actually looks like and how she converted a Mercedes-Benz van into a fully functioning medical grade treatment space 
  • Why her patients do not just tolerate the mobile experience, they prefer it, booking appointments at places most convenient for their schedule
  • The real challenges of operating completely solo and what she wishes she had known before starting
