Alright — I just dropped a 14-min impromptu video and it’s one of those “this only lands because it actually happened” updates. And one I learned from but did NOT enjoy at all experiencing. Here’s the backstory: Last week I got leveled. Slept 36 hours straight. Could barely talk. Chest cough. Whole thing. And it exposed something most agencies don’t want to admit: If you get sick for 3 days and your business wobbles… You don’t own a business. You own a job with a nicer logo. So I pulled the biggest takeaways from Agency Freedom Live + what the sickness revealed inside our own ops. The 7 non-negotiables (the real list) -->Founder independence / leadership depth - If everything routes through you, you’re the bottleneck and the risk. -->Predictable, systemized revenue - No more guessing rent, payroll, or “where’s the next deal coming from?” -->Productized, transferable core offer You’re not an agency. You’re a system owner. If delivery depends on specific humans, you’re fragile. -->Verticalization + ICP precision If your ICP is fuzzy, everything breaks downstream. And yeah… sometimes “bad clients” is actually an ICP failure, not delivery. -->Financial clarity + forecasting End of year isn’t reflection season. It’s planning season for 2026. -->KPIs + ROI decisions Stop running the business on gut feel. Know your open rates, conversion rates, booking rates, ROI per channel. -->Authority assets that match your price point Info is free. Execution + proof costs money — and it’s what gets you paid. We’re building real case studies (not janky screenshot collages) tied to outcomes. The thread that ties it all together: AAA This is the framework we’re using internally — and what we’re turning into something I call LoudAF. AAA = Awareness → Authority → Action Because most agencies never market themselves. They sit in “delivery mode” and wonder why growth feels like a rollercoaster. AAA fixes that. And we’re breaking it down live on the call: Thursday, Dec 18 @ 1pm ET / 10am PT

Will the recording from yesterdays ask live be in the same area where week 1 was?

What’s up everybody — Happy Tuesday.Herschy here. Quick video for you because I’m staring at my calendar, prepping for Day 2 of ASK Live… and something hit me hard this morning. If you were in ASK Live yesterday, you already know: We didn’t just “teach.”We rewired how you operate your entire business. Operator > dabbler. Precision > chaos. Revenue > busywork. And today? We go even deeper in just a couple hours. But before we do, I need to show you something important. 💳 ACTION ITEM: I’m posting my last 30-day Stripe revenue + FU Money screenshot Because if you're new here — if you’ve never purchased from me, never been inside my ecosystem — I want you to see exactly what’s real. This group is no fluff, no BS, no “fake guru math.” We sell SaaS. We sell courses. We run a real agency. And the numbers back it up. I’m dropping the revenue screenshot and FU-money follow-up screenshot in this post so you can see it for yourself. Not to flex. But to show you the standard. 💥 The Pain That Almost Slowed My Business Down My calendar stays stacked: demos → audits → strategy calls → trainings → onboarding. Back-to-back-to-back. And this year…that load punched a hole in my follow-up game. You already know the rule: FU money lives in the follow-up. Your close rate lives in the follow-up. Your revenue lives in the follow-up. Mine dropped — not because my offer was off…but because I simply didn’t have the time to send high-quality follow-ups after every call. Until one tool flipped it all. ⚡ The One-Pager Tool That Saved My Agency You’ve heard me talk about it yesterday…IF you were on the ASK LIVE calls. But here’s the truth: This little tool saved me HOURS every single day and put revenue back on track. Instead of wasting 20–30 minutes writing a meeting recap…I hit a button. I get: - A full summary - Action items - Follow-up steps - Optional tone variations - A clean, professional recap - And a CTA that makes me look like I run a $10M shop All in seconds.Not hours.
