Meta, Google, TikTok, YouTube. Full-funnel attribution, MMM, creative iteration loops, and bid logic engineered for compounding ROAS — not vanity dashboards.
End-to-end revenue paths from cold traffic to LTV expansion. Landing systems, email/SMS sequences, upsell logic, and post-purchase loops that print profit while you sleep.
Autonomous agents that qualify leads, write ad copy, run customer support, and ingest analytics. Built with custom LLM routing — not Zapier glue. You own the stack.
Embedded as a fractional growth lead. Strategy, hiring, vendor selection, and cap-table-ready forecasts. For founders who need a co-pilot, not another deck.

[ 004 // THE ARCHITECT ]

Six years inside the operating rooms of DTC brands, B2B SaaS, and education companies. I've burned $12M+ in ad spend so my clients don't have to — and built the playbooks, agents, and dashboards that turned that capital into compounding revenue.
Today I work with a small roster of founders who are done renting growth. We architect autonomous systems — paid media, funnels, AI agents, retention — that produce measurable revenue inside 60 days, or I refund the engagement.

[ 005 // PROTOCOL ]
Same protocol every engagement. No mystery, no slide-ware, no "discovery phase" that bills for nothing.
Two-week audit of paid media, attribution, funnel, retention. You get the raw audit doc — keep it whether we work together or not.
Custom 30-60-90 with measurable revenue targets, system diagrams, and the exact stack we'll deploy. Reviewed weekly.
I embed as fractional growth lead. Build, ship, iterate. Weekly war room. Monthly board-ready reporting.
Documented systems, trained team, killed dependencies. You own the engine and the IP. I move to the next.
[ 007 // OBJECTIONS ]
The same questions every founder asks before kicking off. If yours isn't here, ask it on the call.
Book a session →Founders and growth leads at brands doing $500K–$30M ARR who are tired of agency retainers and want an owned acquisition system. DTC, B2B SaaS, and high-ticket education are my sweet spots.
Three phases. (1) Diagnostic — 2 weeks mapping the bottleneck. (2) Build — 4–8 weeks deploying the paid stack, funnel, or AI agent layer. (3) Handoff — your team or in-house operator runs it. No 12-month retainers.
Agencies rent you their stack and bill forever. I build a system you own — workflows, dashboards, agents, and SOPs all live in your accounts. When I leave, nothing breaks.
I guarantee the build, the system, and the handoff. Nobody serious guarantees revenue numbers — too many variables outside my control. What I do guarantee: a working engine measured against the KPIs we agree on in week 1.
Some of it is. The agents I deploy replace specific, repeatable revenue functions: SDR outreach, lifecycle email, customer support triage, ops reporting. Each one ships with logs, fallbacks, and a kill switch.
Starts at $12K for a diagnostic sprint, $35K–$120K for a full build depending on scope. No retainers. No surprise invoices. Pricing locked before kickoff.
