When I started to feel like a business owner

By Mike Killen / February 5, 2024

One day I might feel like a business owner, but most of the time I feel like a guy just pretending to be one. Eventually, I’ll be found out. And that’s fine. It’ll probably feel like being caught decades later after an art heist. I’d been looking over my shoulder for so long, that eventually…

No such thing as a million dollar idea

By Mike Killen / February 2, 2024

Million dollar ideas are a dime-a-dozen. Million dollar execution is worth its weight in gold. My friend and past mentor, Miles Beckler, used to have a saying: “There’s no such thing as a million dollar idea, just million dollar execution.” I have seen people with mediocre, middle of the road ideas absolutely CRUSH their goals,…

By Mike Killen / January 31, 2024

There was a period during my business where frankly, the work wasn’t coming in and I wasn’t making any money. I was still living at home, I had a girlfriend (now my wife) and I was totally flat broke. So I did the exact opposite of what I had preached for the last few years.…

Stop feeling sleezy when selling

By Mike Killen / January 19, 2024

I’ll be honest, I’ve never felt “sleezy” when selling except for one time. Selling satellite TV door to door. The reason it felt sleezy, was because I was using every trick in the book to sell something to people who couldn’t really afford it, and who didn’t need it. Not a day goes by when…

From side gig to full time

By Mike Killen / January 18, 2024

Let’s get to the point, shall we? You’ve got a side hustle. But here’s the thing, it’s still a side hustle because you’re not treating it like a business. Yeah, I get it; I was there too, writing blog posts during lunch breaks and late nights. When I moved into my current house and had…

By Mike Killen / January 17, 2024

So you’re navigating the stormy waters of entrepreneurship? Congrats, but listen up. I’ve made mistakes that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.

Back in 2016 I decided that I was going to help as many funnel builders as I could, sell more marketing funnels for higher prices.

I've now helped thousands of funnel builders sell their services for higher prices, define a niche and scale their business.

I know that my team and I can help, so please don't hesitate to reach out.

Have courage, commit and take action.
