From $0 to $11.9K/month (while traveling South America)

You know what's worse than being broke?

Being broke while working your ass off for other broke people.

This was Mike Bolton’s life in 2023.

He was busting his ass as a marketer for restaurants.

But here's the thing about restaurants...

They operate on margins thinner than the patience of a Karen asking to speak to the manager.

And when COVID stuck around longer than that friend who crashes on your couch...

Mike’s income started to suffer.

• $7K/month became $4K/month.

• $4K/month became $2K/month.

Mike’s income was reliant on his 1 last client.

His monthly expenses? $4,500.

You don't need a Harvard MBA to see where this math was heading…

Mike had the right skills; just the wrong business model.

He realized he had 2 choices:

1. Make a change fast.

2. Go broke and potentially resort to selling feet pics.

So after seeing how I helped Taylin Simmonds go from $0 to $42K/month with ghostwriting, he joined my program.

Here's how Mike went from struggling to pay his bills to building a $11,900/month ghostwriting business while traveling South America...

It Got Worse Before It Got Better

2 months into my ghostwriting program, Mike’s last restaurant client bailed.

• His income: $0.

• His expenses: $4,500/month.

The math wasn't mathing.

Now, most would've panicked.

But Mike got his sh*t together and used what I taught him:

The "Free Work Flywheel"

Here's the 3 steps we took to scale him from $0 to $11.9K/month:

1) Escape The “Fat Fitness Coach Trap”

You wouldn’t hire a fat fitness coach to get you fit…

So why would you hire a ghostwriter with no followers to grow your social media?

This is the #1 reason ghostwriters don’t land clients.

And why the 1st part of my program didn’t even talk about ghostwriting…

Instead, I taught Mike:

• What strategy to use for social media.

• How to brand himself to stand out.

• How to create engaging content.

This helped Mike grow his following.

But more importantly:

Gave him credibility as a ghostwriter.

2) Find Your Guinea Pig

Once Mike understood how to grow on social media, he just needed 1 person to give him a chance to get results.

So, Mike took what he learned from my program and…

1. Offered free content to a friend.

2. Helped him go from 34 to 301 followers in 48 hours.

3. Screenshotted the results and got a testimonial.

3) Turning Content Into Clients

Once Mike had results, he posted it on Twitter.

Within 15 minutes? He got a DM about his service.

The next day? $3,000 client closed.

• 2 weeks later: another client

• 3 weeks later: another client

• 1 week later: another client

• 1 week after that: another client

Before he knew it, Mike went from $0 to $11,900.

From Working For Restaurants To Sippin’ Coffee In Colombia

Mike went from working a glorified job for broke clients…

To building a purposeful + profitable business.

Today, Mike travels South America and does work he enjoys (while working fewer hours with premium clients).

But Mike's story isn't unique in my program:

• Clifton Sellers hit $1,000,000/year.

• Fernando scaled to $100,000/month.

• Jack Moses dropped out of college and hit $10K/month.

• Taylin went from a $42K/year teaching job → $500K/year ghostwriter.

The pattern is always the same:

• Right skills + Wrong market = Struggle.

• Right skills + Right market = Freedom.

You Have 8-12 Months Left…

Goldman Sachs projects the creator economy will hit $480 billion by 2027.

Every day, more founders realize they need a personal brand to grow their business.

But they don't have the time or expertise to build one themselves.

That's where ghostwriters come in.

Charging $3K-$10K/month to do what Mike now does in his sleep.

And right now, there's more demand than supply for quality ghostwriters.

But this won't last forever…

As more people learn about the new opportunity with ghostwriting…

More competition enters the market.

I predict ghostwriting will be on easy mode for the next 8-12 months.

After that?

New ghostwriters will fight over the scraps.
