Jake Thompson
Founder · Design Agency · 6-person team · $18k/mo
Strong fit — take this call, prioritise.
Says
“Wants to hit $40k/mo. Feels stuck and overworked.”
Real
Every deal still closes through Jake. No repeatable sales process — growth is capped by his calendar.
- 6-person design agency, 3 yrs, ~$18k/mo recurring
- 2 retainer anchors; rest is project-based
- Leads via referral — no outbound system yet
Buying signal
Has invested ~$4k in an ops hire + a course. Spent willingly when he believed it'd work.
Opening move
“How many deals did you personally close last quarter — and what would happen if you didn't?”
May resist letting go of the closer role.
