Summary

Strategic Growth Specialist (Business Growth & Revenue) Budget: $200-$500 CAD (Paid Strategic Assessment) Potential Follow-Up: Ongoing advisory role for the right person. I'm looking for a strategic thinker to help me identify the shortest path to sustainable growth and revenue inside my business. This is not a traditional marketing role. I'm not looking for someone to run ads, build funnels, manage social media, or execute tasks. I already have team members handling execution. I'm looking for someone who can step back, see the entire business, challenge assumptions, identify bottlenecks, and help determine where the next phase of growth should come from. About The Business I'm Chris Lesso, founder of LTR DRUMMING WORLDWIDE. We help driven drummers unlock focus, confidence, self-expression, and mastery through rhythm. I call this philosophy Life Through Rhythm. We're building far more than a drum education company. The vision is a global community and ecosystem centered around personal mastery through drumming. Current offers include: Free content and workshops Membership and subscription programs Courses and challenges Premium coaching and mastermind experiences Events and organizational programs Why This Opportunity Exists Over the past year, I made a large investment in working with a growth strategist and agency. Together, we built significant infrastructure: Team members Community platform Product ladder Marketing systems Content systems Assets and frameworks Customer journey improvements Many of these initiatives were valuable and necessary. However, while we built the machine, we did not achieve the primary goal of reaching MRR targets. The next challenge is not building more assets. The next challenge is identifying and scaling the highest-leverage revenue engine. I'm not looking for more activity. I'm looking for clarity on what moves the needle. What I'm NOT Looking For I'm not looking for: Generic marketing advice More content for the sake of content Vanity metrics "Just post more" Surface-level funnel suggestions I'm looking for first-principles thinking. I want someone who can evaluate what exists, identify what matters, and determine what should be: Doubled down on Improved Simplified Paused Deleted The Assignment: Assume this business belongs to you. Review the information provided and create a Loom video or concise strategy document outlining: 1. Revenue Analysis Where do you believe the majority of future revenue should come from? Examples: High-ticket coaching Memberships Events Workshops Partnerships Community Corporate programs Content ecosystem Other opportunities 2. Bottlenecks What do you believe is currently preventing growth? What is the biggest constraint? 3. Strategic Priorities If you could only focus on ONE strategic initiative over the next 12 months, what would it be and why? 4. Stop / Start / Continue What would you: Stop doing immediately? Start doing immediately? Continue doing? 5. Path To High MRR If you were personally responsible for reaching MRR targets, what would your plan be? What metrics would you track? What activities would matter most? Ideal Candidate You understand: Business growth Revenue generation Offers and positioning Community businesses Membership models Coaching businesses Funnels and customer journeys Direct response marketing First-principles thinking Most importantly, you know how to connect strategy to cash flow. To Apply: Please send: A brief introduction Relevant businesses you've helped grow Why this opportunity interests you How you think about growth and revenue Anything else that helps me understand your strategic approach I'm not looking for another collection of tactics. I'm looking for someone who can help identify the highest-leverage path to sustainable growth and revenue. If that sounds like you, I'd love to hear from you; Chris Lesso LTR DRUMMING WORLDWIDE chrislesso.com
