ITV #271: She Went From Making $10K a Day to Building a Seven-Figure Tax Business | Inside The Vault

Cheyenne Drayton’s story is bigger than taxes.

Before becoming a multi-seven-figure business owner, Cheyenne says she was making roughly $10,000 a day in the streets. But behind the money was survival mode, instability, and a life that almost cost her everything.

After being robbed, raided, spending five days in jail, and losing custody of her children, Cheyenne made a decision: there was no Plan B.

She went all in on the tax industry.

In her first year, Cheyenne says she built a team of more than 300 tax professionals and generated approximately $464,000. Pasted text

Inside the Vault, Cheyenne opens up to Ash Cash about growing up homeless, becoming a teenage mother, rebuilding her life after the streets, learning how to manage money, creating income beyond tax season, and using AI and automation to build a business that gives her more time with her three sons.

She also shares why her greatest wins aren’t always the million-dollar results — sometimes it’s watching someone on her team go from sleeping in a car to finally being able to support themselves.

In this episode:

• Making $10K a day in the streets

• The robbery that made her question everything

• Getting raided, going to jail, and losing her children

• Making $464K her first year in taxes

• Scaling to 300+ tax professionals

• Creating income outside of tax season

• Monthly recurring revenue and digital products

• Using AI to answer client and team questions 24/7

• Automating a business so you can get your time back

• Motherhood, faith, and raising three boys

• Supporting her son through Duchenne muscular dystrophy

• Why your past does not have to determine your future

• Learning to love yourself instead of searching for it in others

Cheyenne’s message is simple: sometimes nobody is coming to save you — and your future does not have to look like what you’ve been through. Pasted text
