"Working with Michael brought that spark back to me. It really changed my life. Before I would think how are these guys making 20-30 grand a month, but at the rate we're going that's easy. You guys gave me the confidence to stop my 9-to-5 and put my trust in Michael and the team. My wife ended up quitting her job too. The way you guys work is just outstanding, y'all make dreams come to reality."

Automated qualification, appointment booking, pre-call nurture sequences, and DM setter infrastructure that converts leads while you sleep. Built inside Go High Level and integrated with your existing content and ad systems.
Hi, I'm Michael. ๐
I built The Build Before You Burn System after seeing the same story play out too many times, coaches with real skill and real results to offer, burning through ad budgets on a broken foundation while agencies collected retainers and disappeared.
The sequence I use now came from the inside, years of closing high-ticket in the DMs myself, scaling sales teams, and building the systems before teaching them to anyone else.
The ads were never the problem. The foundation was.
Send me a message with where you're at right now and what you're trying to build. I only work with a select number of clients at a time so I can give each one full attention.

Most outbound doesnโt fail because of bad copy.
It fails because thereโs no real system behind it.
No depth in targeting
No reason for someone to reply
No infrastructure built to scale
So what you get is inconsistent pipeline, random replies, and campaigns that die after a few weeks.
Thatโs usually where I come in.
Over the past 8 years, Iโve built outbound systems for B2B companies that have generated over ยฃ25M in pipeline.
Iโm also a partner with Instantly and Clay, which means this isnโt surface-level execution. Everything is built properly from the ground up.
What I actually do:
โ Define ICPs properly
Not โanyone who might buyโ
Clear targeting based on who converts
โ Build signal-based lists
Using Clay to find real buying intent
Not generic scraped data
โ Write messaging that gets replies
Multiple angles based on actual signals
Not templates blasted to everyone
โ Set up infrastructure that holds volume
Domains, inboxes, warmup, deliverability
Built to scale without burning domains
โ Run campaigns that generate consistent pipeline
Not spikes. Not luck. Something you can rely on
Tools I work with:
Instantly, Clay, Apollo, Smartlead, HubSpot (only where it actually matters)
If we work together, expect:
Clear thinking
Fast execution
No unnecessary back and forth
If youโre serious about outbound, send:
โ who youโre targeting
โ what youโre selling
โ whatโs currently not working
Iโll tell you straight if this is fixable or not.
If it is, Iโll show you exactly how Iโd approach it.

Profitable, measurable, and repeatable paid media growth for ecommerce brands.
With 8+ years of hands-on paid media experience, I help ecommerce and DTC brands grow using Google Ads, Meta Ads, and Microsoft Ads. The work stays focused on clean tracking, clear structure, and decisions based on unit economics, not surface-level ROAS. This covers scaling accounts, fixing stalled performance, and rebuilding setups that have become hard to trust.
โ 8+ years hands-on paid media experience across ecommerce and DTC
โ Managed millions in ad spend across Google Ads and Meta Ads
โ Google and Meta Ads certified
โ In-house experience at Decathlon and Samsung
โ Strong experience with Google Merchant Center and large product feeds
โ Scaling paid media based on unit economics, not vanity ROAS
โ Recovery projects for accounts where performance dropped or stalled
โ Clear reporting and decision making without clutter or guesswork
โ Paid media focused on profit, not surface-level ROAS
โ Strong tracking discipline using GA4 and Google Tag Manager
Hereโs how I help your business:
I work with ecommerce, subscriptions, marketplaces, and Amazon-hybrid brands to make paid media easier to manage and more predictable. The focus is on fixing tracking first, tightening account structure, and running ads and creative with clear intent. This leads to more stable CPA, cleaner reporting, and scaling that does not break every few weeks.
Google Ads for Ecommerce:
Search, Shopping, and Performance Max are structured for clarity and scale. Google Merchant Center feeds are cleaned and maintained so product data does not limit performance. Performance Max is run with clear signals, controlled testing, and reliable conversion tracking.
Meta Ads Media Buying and Creative:
Meta Ads is managed with disciplined signals and structured creative testing. This includes creative strategy, brief writing, and copy that matches the offer and landing page. Testing stays organised so winners are clear and scaling feels controlled.
Tracking and Measurement:
GA4 and Google Tag Manager are set up and reviewed to ensure events fire correctly and only once. Conversion tracking is validated end to end so platforms learn from real purchases. Reporting is simplified so numbers make sense and decisions are faster.
Paid Media Strategy and Recovery:
Full funnel thinking connects ads, creative, offers, and unit economics. Recovery projects focus on accounts where performance has dropped due to scaling, tracking changes, or platform updates. The goal is to stabilise performance before pushing growth again.
Tools, Industries, Technologies
โ Google Ads, Meta Ads, GA4, Google Merchant Center
โ Shopify, Magento, Klaviyo
โ Feed tools including DataFeedWatch, dashboards, and custom reporting
โ E-commerce, subscriptions, marketplaces, DTC, and Amazon-hybrid brands
Why work with me:
The approach is straightforward and practical. No inflated dashboards. No guesswork. Just clear priorities, clean data, and steady improvements you can actually follow. Communication stays direct and decisions are explained in plain language.
If paid media feels harder than it should or numbers no longer add up! send your site link and a short note on what is stuck. I will review the setup and map out clear next steps.
