How Scalpa Skyrocketed This Aesthetician’s Business And Confidence

Christina Oliva is a licensed aesthetician and certified permanent makeup artist who has owned her own practice for the last 15 years.
She wanted to learn the procedures so she could start making money in the industry. She was on the hunt for an affordable online training course which is when she came across Scalpa.
Scalpa is the world’s leading company for online training courses and products in the aesthetic industry. With over 60 different training courses and hundreds of high-quality supplies, every artist and beauty expert can find what they need to succeed.
Oliva soon became obsessed with learning and adding more services to her business menu. “I started learning so many different procedures and before I knew it, I became addicted to learning just about every treatment that Scalpa had to offer,” said Oliva.
Through taking the majority of the courses Scalpa has to offer, her favorites have been 4D Lipo, a combination procedure for fat reduction, and Scalpa Shine, a BB-Glow micro-needling infusion treatment.
Scalpa is a bit different than most beauty schools and academies though; all of their training is completed online. The company has spent years coming up with the best system so each student has the same experience, if not better, than that of learning in person.
When we asked Oliva what sets Scalpa apart from other training academies, she had nothing but raving compliments for the innovative company. “Well, that’s just it, I don’t feel that they are long-distance at all. I find their Facebook group to be very helpful in sharing tips and tricks with the Scalpa family. They are there whenever I need them. They reply to my emails, even when I have a question pop up in the middle of the night. They offer professional-looking marketing materials and all the client forms needed to really make me feel that they care about my success. I like being able to have lifetime access to my training for reference. They even offer affiliate and trainer programs. They have really covered all their bases and I don’t feel they are lacking anywhere in their training programs.”
Needless to say her journey with Scalpa has been successful, but that is not the only success she’s endured. Since joining Scalpa, she said that she is making about 300% now, averaging $250-$500 in just an hour.
Oliva is continuing her education to grow her business and to continuously “amaze” her clients with the procedures she offers them.

Why Derik Fay Is Becoming a Case Study in Long-Haul Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship today is often framed in extremes — overnight exits or public flameouts. But a small cohort of operators is being studied for something far less viral: consistency. Among them, Derik Fay has quietly surfaced as a long-term figure whose name appears frequently across sectors, interviews, and editorial mentions — yet whose personal visibility remains relatively limited.
Fay’s career spans more than 20 years and includes work in private investment, business operations, and emerging entertainment ventures. Though many of his companies are not household names, the volume and duration of his activity have made him a subject of interest among business media outlets and founders who study entrepreneurial longevity over fame.
He was born in Westerly, Rhode Island, in 1978, and while much of his early career remains undocumented publicly, recent profiles including recurring features in Forbes — have chronicled his current portfolio and leadership methods. These accounts often emphasize his pattern of working behind the scenes, embedding within businesses rather than leading from a distance. His style is often described by peers as “operational first, media last.”
Fay has also become recognizable for his consistency in leadership approach: focus on internal systems, low public profile, and long-term strategy over short-term visibility. At 46 years old, his posture in business remains one of longevity rather than disruption a contrast to many of the more heavily publicized entrepreneurs of the post-2010 era.
While Fay has never publicly confirmed his net worth, independent analysis based on documented real estate holdings, corporate exits, and investment activity suggests a conservative floor of $100 million, with several credible indicators placing the figure at well over $250 million. The exact number may remain private but the scale is increasingly difficult to overlook.
He is also involved in creative sectors, including film and media, and maintains a presence on social platforms, though not at the scale or tone of many personal-brand-driven CEOs. He lives with his long-term partner, Shandra Phillips, and is the father of two daughters — both occasionally referenced in interviews, though rarely centered.
While not an outspoken figure, Fay’s work continues to gain media attention. The reason may lie in the contrast he presents: in a climate of rapid rises and equally rapid burnout, his profile reflects something less dramatic but increasingly valuable — steadiness.
There are no viral speeches. No Twitter threads drawing blueprints. Just a track record that’s building its own momentum over time.
Whether that style becomes the norm for the next wave of founders is unknown. But it does offer something more enduring than buzz: a model of entrepreneurship where attention isn’t the currency — results are.
