Which founder are you?
The solo juggler
Welcome to the stage! You’re the main performer, juggling everything in your business, and at any moment, something is going to drop.
You don’t know exactly where to focus—and you need to build a strong foundation without the pressure, cost, or overwhelm.
The Burnt-Out Builder
You’ve tried everything—funnels, freebies, webinars, courses—and you’re fried.
You’re building something great… but burning out in the process. You need to cut through the noise and prioritize only what’s going to move the needle.
The DIY Warrior
You’ve done everything yourself and you’re still standing—but you’re tired of winging it.
You’re scrappy, savvy, and your sales and revenue are in an upswing. You need to know what to do next so you can grow into your next stage without burning out.
If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place.
Marketing isn’t about doing everything. it’s about doing the right things, in the right order.
