At the start of this year, I joined LGJ Insiders, and hands down - it’s one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made. The value inside of this program is insane: ✅ Expert Training – Lead magnets, CRMs, AI, automation… world-class strategies that actually move the needle. ✅ Software Vault – Just using a few of the included deals (Notion, Stripe, make.com) pays for the entire program. Oh, and free sheet magic + free leads?! 🤯 ✅ Live Coaching – Multiple calls per week, including 1:1 coaching, packed with real-time insights and mentorship. ✅ Proven Results – I scaled from $0 → $11K+ using the frameworks inside this group. And I’m not the only one - over 1,000+ members are leveraging this insiders program to scale. If you’ve been on the fence about joining, this program pays for itself in the first week - and if it doesn’t, you can ask for your money back. Zero risk. 🚀 If you want to scale lead gen and close more deals, jump in. It’s an absolute blast! 💬 Got questions? Drop them below - I’m happy to share my experience in the program.

After four solid months bringing in $11,100/month, I lost my biggest client. Poof... $7,500/month gone overnight. Suddenly, I was sitting at $3,600/month - barely enough to breathe, let alone build. I started asking myself all the hard questions: Should I get a job? Am I even cut out for this? Am I focused on the right things? The pressure was intense. But instead of panicking, I went back to the drawing board - and turned to the one person I knew could help: Jay. Jay encouraged me to rebuild my CRM from scratch. So I deleted all the cold, unresponsive leads and laser-focused on the people I already knew - people I have built trust with over the years. I started farming instead of hunting, and after a couple months of deep conversations, one perfect client emerged: A niche I knew inside and out + a pain point I could solve better than anyone else. Only problem? The proposal was a beast. Super nuanced. Complex. Hard to explain. Enter: Jay’s Wizardry I hit up Jay for a consulting session. He walked me through how to simplify and sharpen the offer: - Clear language only - Cut anything confusing - Frame it for max value and zero friction We refined it together until it landed perfectly. After a few back-and-forths with the client, I closed the deal at $7,000/month for 6 months. That brings me back to $10,600/month - but with way more leverage and a scalable model. What Changed? This isn’t just another client… This is the beginning of a repeatable system I can scale with automation and AI. No more one-off consulting projects. Now I’m building templates and tech that will grow my impact and revenue. Jay didn’t just help me close a deal - he helped me shift my entire model. And I can honestly say: Joining the Insiders Program was the turning point. If you’re in a dip or just ready to scale smarter, now’s the time to double down and sharpen your craft. Jay and his team are the real deal. The Insiders Program has been life-changing for me, and Jay has built a world-class team that shows up and supports. I’ve been around the digital marketing space for over a decade - I’ve seen all the smoke and mirrors. This isn’t that.

Just got back from spending a few days with Jay at his penthouse in Miami, diving deep into AI, automation, and systems that actually scale. I’ve spent time around some smart operators - but what Jay is building is different. It’s not just about stacking tools. It’s about how he thinks about automation, scale, and leverage. We unpacked workflows, built automations, and explored how AI can eliminate 90% of the friction in most businesses. I’m already integrating what I learned - and it’s clear: this is going to be a game changer for how I grow and operate. If you’re serious about scaling with AI and automation, start with Jay’s YouTube or join the Insiders Program. He’s about to drop tools and trainings that make scaling AI and automation plug-and-play. We’re living in the future. Now is the time to invest in AI and automation. What are you waiting for?
