From $20k to $100K/mo | How this BURNT-OUT agency owner built an agency that runs without him
Starting Revenue:
$10k-$50k
Situation:
Hass was on the brink of shutting down his agency. Burnt out, overwhelmed, and stuck in a cycle of traveling nonstop to shoot content, he was exhausted and directionless. Despite working nonstop, the clients weren’t coming in consistently, and the pressure to do everything himself was crushing. He had the skill, but not the systems, and the dream was starting to feel like a nightmare. Hos was seriously considering going back to a 9–5 job.
Pain Points:
- You feel like you’re drowning in work, stuck editing videos at 2AM while clients ghost your invoices.
- You’re the bottleneck in every part of the business—if you don’t do it, it doesn’t get done.
- You’ve tried offers, tweaks, social posts, and even flying out to clients—but still struggle to land consistent deals.
- You keep hiring freelancers, but they never "just get it"—and managing them becomes a second job.
- You’re exhausted, considering shutting it all down, and asking yourself, “Is this even worth it anymore?”
Outcomes / What They Achieved:
- Scaled from $20K to $104K/month in revenue—in less than a year.
- Built a 25+ person team to handle fulfillment, sales, and operations—so he doesn’t have to.
- Fully removed himself from production—some clients are happy and he’s never even met them.
- Now operates a business that grows even when he’s offline, not just a job that depends on him.
- On track for $200K/month while working ON the business, not IN it.
