Financial Freedom 101

Exited my first business 2 months ago. No longer a garbage business owner anymore. I got an ROI of 233% and was able to learn what it was like to run my first business. Feels like I got my MBA without the school part two years out of college and I was able to profit off it.

The lessons I learned from owning that business are going to last me forever.

The business was a great head start to my career but now I am building something much bigger that has already surpassed my revenue last year at TNT.

The reason I sold TNT is that I am growing a digital marketing company. I went to college for marketing and I have always been infatuated with making money on the internet.

At Stryker Digital, We did $150,000 in top-line revenue last year now I am doing $160,000+ each MONTH.

The business has absolutely exploded more than I could ever imagine and it is not stopping. My Role in the company is CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) I am also the head of all sales.

Since January 1st, I have closed $643,750 in deals. In December, I was really frustrated and not able to close as many deals till I dialed in my sales process, 5 months through the year, and I’ve generated a ton of money in sales.

Life has been moving at a fast pace each Sunday that comes by for the next week I am ready to challenge myself with closing as many deals as possible. Weeks go by where I close 3 deals and other weeks I can close up to 12.

The business is a constant rollercoaster because my partner and I are constantly challenging each other to level up and striving for goals and deadlines each month.

Having a sense of urgency in business is key.

It’s April 30th, and we did $161,000 this month.

Now my goal for next month is to beat that number if we don’t beat that number then the month feels like a failure. If we can get to $167,000 next month then we are on pace to him $2,000,000 this year. That will be a 1,233% increase in top-line revenue!

For every 4 clients I lose each month, I sign up 10. If I can keep it at this pace there is no doubt in my mind we can build a 10 million dollar business within the next three years.

The craziest part about this whole business is we have never paid for a customer each customer we have acquired was through an inbound lead or a recommendation from another client of ours.

At this very moment, we are building up a sales funnel for paid leads like Facebook and cold email for the first time. If we can grow from these marketing channels.

The bar is extremely low and a lot of people I’m up against will not work and communicate like me and my partner Andy to our clients.

On the path to 2 million this year.

Thank you for listening to my brain dump.
