THIS Real Estate Media Agency Adds $20k from $140 in Ads (IN 2 WEEKS)

Real Estate Media
Video Agency

A real estate media agency owner transformed their business by implementing scalable systems, dialing in their offer, and mastering sales, generating $20,000 in revenue from just $140 in ads within two weeks. They overcame reliance on referrals, achieved predictable client acquisition, and gained time freedom to focus on strategic growth and family.

Before
  • Inconsistent Revenue: Agencies struggle to predict when their next project or client will come, making it nearly impossible to scale predictably.
  • Overwhelming Workload: Owners wear too many hats, handling everything from shooting and editing to client management, leaving no time for strategy or growth.
  • Lack of Systems: Without systems, scaling leads to chaos, missed deadlines, and unhappy clients, resulting in wasted opportunities.
  • Low Confidence in Sales: Many agency owners have no experience in sales, making it hard to close deals for higher-ticket retainers.
  • Scope Creep & Undervaluing Services: They often undercharge for services and allow clients to demand more without additional compensation, leading to burnout and frustration.

After
  • $20,000 Added Revenue in 2 Weeks: Achieved by dialing in their offer and spending only $140 in ads.
  • 10x ROI: Turned their initial investment in systems and training into exponential financial returns.
  • Consistent Retainers: Secured multiple high-ticket clients, creating reliable monthly revenue streams.
  • Reduced Time on Operations: Implemented plug-and-play systems that allowed the owner to delegate and reclaim personal time.
  • Sales Confidence: Closed 100% of the last three sales calls with a new framework, converting cold leads into long-term clients.
