I threw my 7 fig biz in trash -- here's why


Over the last 4 years I built my business to over $3 million.

$2.5 of that came in the last 3 years, and on the outside, those are nice numbers but what came with much of it was lack of time for me, my family, my health, and less profit.

Sales calls. Sales team. Writers. Account managers.

...The works!

Late last year I tore it all down, and start thinking of how I could build a 7-figure business that didn't STILL feel like a rat race, and while not easy to build, it'd be simple.

Meaning no more chasing new clients every month to hit a more significant number than the last.

No more slow-time-consuming sales cycle dependent upon closers, and having to split profits with them.

No more time-consuming social media content.

...So around February, I full committed to this process of focusing more on current clients--so that they stay longer.

Have them invest in a recurring basis weekly, or quarterly--so I'm no longer starting each month at ZERO.

Only selling through social DM's or email + Google Doc (no outbound COLD DMs all inbound through RTC content method)

Sell 1 offer at multiple levels of access (not to be confused with a product suite or ascension model nu-uh) so delivery isn't complex, and I can meet each person where they're at in their journey.

AND, spending less than 2-4 hours inside of the business daily.

The result -- $28K in March, with $11K of that being RECURRING. Meaning I started off April at $11K, and will grow from there month after month.

I've done $80K months, but then the next month I had to start at ZERO, and do it all over again with new people.

The new goal?

$100K/mth in recurring revenue. NOT one-off revenue.

Deeper connections. Longer engagements.

Simplicity = Simple7Figures.

Peace,

During November, the email agency side of my business does RECORD numbers, and there's no mistake as to why. Black Friday. Not because I make Black Friday deals as I rarely do, but because so many companies wait until November to FINALLY email their list. At this point, their audience hasn't heard from them for most of the year. Their deliverability is trash, so most of the promo is going to spam So they're damn near desperate to get PROFESSIONAL help as they know the type of returns they can...

Sophomore year of college, I got dumped. Her name was Ashley. We'd been together for 8 months. She called me on a Tuesday night and hit me with the classic: "Freddy, it's not you... It's me. I just need to work on myself right now." I believed her. Felt bad for her, even. Two weeks later, I see her downtown making out with some dude who she previously called 'her friend'... Turns out... it WAS me. 😅 Not her. She was just too nice to tell me the truth. When your email list isn't converting,...

I was looking to grow my agency faster, so I took a class that taught me a new method. But it wasn’t just about some script or AI software. What I learned was this: If you can find your ideal client's undeniable sore spot—the one thing they know is broken—you’ll never struggle to close clients again. For my ideal client, that easy-to-identify sore spot was email deliverability. I’d find big brands sitting in the spam/promo folder and send them screenshots with a message like: "This is...
