You already know you're not getting paid for the value you create. In 90 days we move the three things keeping you there: what you charge, how you close, and the hours it takes to deliver.
A 90-day program for service owners stuck under $20,000 per month. Taught by a fractional CMO ($20M) who's led digital for Volvo & Patak's and reviewed 1,000+ sales calls.
"I used to be terrified of sales. Now we're at $30–40K a month in recurring revenue, and I actually enjoy it."
Daniella Findable Digital Marketing"My rates have quadrupled. Last month I did a $16K month without it feeling like a stretch."
Jenni Chill Creative Co"I'm making a few multiples more than when I came to Mike, working the same hours if not less."
Sean Keepers Digital MarketingYou're good at what you do, and your clients get results because of it. But most of that work can only be done by you, so the whole business runs on you and never slows down. Here's the cycle:
You have no time to work on the business because you're drowning in it. It shows up in three places.
You write the number, then you talk yourself down and send a smaller one. You price on what the client can afford, not on the value you create, because you can't afford to lose the deal. You've meant to raise your rates for a while, but you don't fully believe the higher number yet, so it never comes out of your mouth.
You don't have a sales process, so a good call ends and you can't tell if it's a yes. You couldn't say what made it land, so you can't do it on purpose next time. When the silence runs long, you drop the price before they push back. Playing small shows, so even the clients who sign walk away a little unsure they picked right.
The scope drifts a little each week, and you take the unpaid extra because saying no is harder. It all runs through you. You hand work to a contractor and it comes back wrong, because there's no process to give them. You've thought about hiring and backed off, so the systems never get built. You wanted freedom, and instead the business runs on you.
I've run service businesses since 2013. I undercharged for years and made everything more complicated than it needed to be, nearly going under twice, before I learned to rebuild an offer for profit. Since 2019, that's the shift I make for other owners.
This is live coaching, built around you and your business. We find the one thing holding you back the most and fix it first. Once that heaviest problem moves, you get a win where it counts, and you finally get paid for the value you create.
Your biggest problem is always one of these three:
We sharpen who you're for and how you talk about it, and build the authority that brings the right buyers to you. Steady demand follows from that.
We give you a sales process you run the same way every time: qualify the right people, run the same discovery, price it for you to win, and follow up so warm leads don't slip away.
We shape your work into one clear outcome you can charge a premium for, then build the systems and support that take you off the critical path and give your time back.
We find the one thing causing the most friction and fix it, then move on to the next constraint.
Here's what changed after we ran The Compression Method together.
"I can bring Mike a problem that feels business-crushing, and within ten minutes he distills it into three different solutions that would all work."
— TylerPrivate 90 minutes before you start. Leave with a 30-day focus plan.
Three live calls every week. Drop in when you need help or support.
A private 15 minutes each month for the urgent questions that need some depth.
A private hour at day 45 to see what's working and adjust while there's time left.
A searchable library of trainings built from the group's questions. Find the topic you need, when you need it.
Vetted contacts and warm intros when you need them.
If you're bringing in steady revenue with a proven offer, you're in the right place. If your offer has no track record, this isn't for you.
That's Sean, at the same hours he was already working.
