How Justin acquired customers
Tools used to build Creator MBA
I was SVP of Sales when I had a panic attack from burnout. I quit to build a solo business. Now I make $5M/year with 89% profit margin and zero ads.
Corporate success was killing me. The panic attack was a wake-up call. I needed a different path.
I spent 2 years building an audience on LinkedIn and Twitter before selling anything. When I launched products, the audience was ready.
All growth is organic. Content creates compound interest. I post daily and it compounds.
Build audience first for distribution
Organic content scales to millions
Burnout signals direction change
Solo businesses can reach $5M+
