From a Garage Freelancer to 100k/mo Studio Owner | FULL Story
Starting Revenue:
Situation
Most agency owners are trapped. They started with big dreams but now find themselves stuck in the grind—working out of cramped garages, saying yes to every project just to survive, and constantly juggling every role in the business. Creativity once fueled them, but now it's buried under late nights, missed family time, and burnout. They know they're capable of more, but they don’t know how to break free from being the bottleneck in their own business. Every day they delay, they risk burning out or staying stuck in mediocrity.
Pain Points
- Glorified Freelancer Syndrome: You're the editor, the shooter, the sales rep, the client manager... and you're drowning in it all.
- Custom Chaos: Every offer is different, making it impossible to scale, productize, or predict cash flow.
- Order Taker Trap: Clients dictate your process, making you look like every other agency and racing you to the bottom on price.
- System-less Struggle: No project management, no automation, just whiteboards and your brain trying to hold it all together.
- Burning Out Alone: No community, no guidance, no clarity—just long days, missed moments, and a business that collapses without you.
