Not only am I a fractional CMO, I am your strategic bridge between human intent and AI execution 🤝 I’m certified with Google AI and I’m an expert at Claude Cowork and Claude Code If your business is doing $1M+, but your growth has hit a ceiling, you don’t have a talent problem. You have a "Human Glue" problem, the manual, repetitive, and fragile processes that require your best people to act like data-entry clerks just to keep the lights on. I am Mike Volkin. I am a Business Modernizer. I help CEOs and Founders replace operational chaos with autonomous AI pipelines. With a track record of building, scaling, and exiting six companies, I don't just "implement AI tools", I engineer enterprise value. 🏢Why Mid-Market CEOs hire me: Margin Protection: I identify the "invisible leaks" where manual labor is eating your profits. We replace $150k/year administrative overhead with $50/month automation loops. The Founder’s Exit: Most companies aren't sellable because the "system" is in the founder's head. I document and automate your tribal knowledge, turning your business into a turnkey asset. Operational Speed: I build "Centralized AI Knowledge Bases" where your team can find any answer in 5 seconds, not 5 hours. Battle-Tested Leadership: As an Army veteran, I bring military-grade precision to your tech stack. We modernize without breaking what’s already working. 🥇My "Modernization" Framework: The AI Readiness Audit: A deep dive into your current marketing and operations tech stack to find your biggest automation opportunities. The Automation Roadmap: A strategic blueprint for replacing "Human Glue" with autonomous AI agents. Deployment & Governance: Building and overseeing the implementation of custom AI workflows that run 24/7 with 0% error rates. 🚫What I am NOT: I am not a generalist developer or a "prompt engineer." I am a fractional AI and automation strategist for CEOs who realize that "doing things the way we've always done them" is the fastest way to become a dinosaur. Skills: -AI Strategy & Consulting -Business Process Automation -Fractional Chief AI Officer (CAIO) -Business Process Mapping -Operations Management -Generative AI Implementation -Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) -Workflow Optimization -Exit Strategy & Sellability -No-Code Automation (Make, Zapier) 🦸Strategic Fractional CMO: Bridging Marketing & Modern Operations Most companies don't have a marketing problem—they have a "Leaky Bucket" problem. They spend thousands on traffic only for those leads to die in a manual, fragmented sales process. As a Fractional CMO with six successful exits, I don't just focus on top-of-funnel vanity metrics. I focus on Revenue Operations (RevOps). I modernize your entire marketing department by integrating AI and automation into your sales funnels, ensuring that every dollar spent on growth is captured by a high-efficiency machine. When I step in as your Fractional CMO, I take full ownership of your growth strategy and the systems that power it. From architecting AI-driven lead nurturing sequences to optimizing your CAC/LTV ratios, I ensure your marketing isn't just a "cost center," but a predictable, scalable asset. I provide the high-level leadership of a full-time executive at a fraction of the cost, allowing your company to modernize its growth engine while you stay focused on the big picture.

You do not need another task-based virtual assistant, nor do you need a tech consultant pushing hype from an ivory tower. You need a seasoned, battle-tested operator who will roll up their sleeves, get your poop in a group, and give you the total operational clarity you need to actually lead your company with modern infrastructure. I am Matt. Over the last 20 years, I have bootstrapped, scaled, and optimized healthy, highly profitable businesses up to $10MM in revenue, managing hundreds of employees across multiple states. I have lived in the operational trenches. I do not just consult. I dig in, do the heavy lifting with you, and get shit done. I know firsthand that great companies are built on great people and strong team culture. But over the last 3 years, I have transformed my own businesses by pairing that human-first leadership with cutting-edge AI and practical automations. I use modern technology to eliminate friction, bring order to back-office chaos, and give owners crystal-clear visibility into their entire operation. And to do the things that are not getting done but should be. My mission is to give business owners total clarity and purpose. I construct the modern infrastructure that lets your team execute at a high level, freeing you up to actually lead the company. Here is what I bring to your leadership table: * Operational Clarity & Getting Shit Done: When your business feels chaotic or stuck, I bring order. I help business owners cut through the noise, untangle complex issues, organize messy processes, and gain absolute control so they can scale with confidence. * People, Team & Culture First: Tools and systems fail if your people do not buy in. Having managed hundreds of employees, I build accountability structures and team frameworks that foster high performance, clear communication, and pride in execution. * Modern AI & Smart Automation Execution: I bring 20 years of battle-tested business wisdom into the modern era. Over the last 3 years, I have personally built hands-on automated systems that boost sales conversions, automate follow-up, optimize CRMs, power custom HR learning management systems (LMS), and generate real-time executive dashboards. * Scaling Operations & Fractional Leadership (1 to 3): Whether stepping in as an Acting CEO or Fractional COO, I specialize in taking messy growth and professionalizing it. I establish clear accountability metrics, stabilize cash flow, handle compliance, and fix operational bottlenecks. * Startups (0 to 1): I help bootstrapped founders identify core goals, build robust business plans, design go-to-market strategies, and construct the initial operating frameworks required to launch cleanly. * Platform-Agnostic Systems & SOPs: Whether your team runs on Google Workspace, Slack, HubSpot, ADP, Trello, Asana, Monday, or EOS/Traction, I adapt to your stack. I build practical automated workflows and clear, easy-to-follow SOPs so your team actually executes them. To be radically transparent: I am a C+ at building complex manual pivot tables, but I am an A at rolling up my sleeves, organizing messy businesses, and establishing the operational clarity that stops leadership drag. If you are ready to transition your business from chaotic survival to a clear, highly controlled, and profitable growth engine, let us set up a 30-minute call to see if we are a fit. Matt from PA

Words That Sell. Copy That Converts. Profits That Scale. If your sales funnel, email campaign, or landing page isn’t making you money, it’s costing you money. You don’t need more traffic. You need better conversions. That’s where I come in. For 25+ years, I’ve helped businesses turn words into sales. Not just “nice-sounding” words—but conversion-driven messaging rooted in psychology, persuasion, and buyer behavior. My copy has generated millions in sales across industries as diverse as SaaS, eCommerce, high-ticket coaching, B2B software, real estate, and even dog training and dating advice. 🚀 Where I’m Most Useful to Your Company: ✅ Sales Letters (Long-form, Short-form, Direct Response) ✅ Landing Pages that Double (or Triple) Conversion Rates ✅ Email Autoresponder Sequences (Cold, Nurture, Re-Engagement) ✅ Sales Funnels that Move Prospects from Awareness to Purchase ✅ Lead Generation & Nurture – Get More Qualified Leads, Not Just Clicks ✅ VSLs, Explainer Videos & YouTube Ads – Video Copy that Sells ✅ Case Studies & Authority-Boosting Content ✅ AI-Powered Chatbot & Sales Copy Creation 💡 What Makes Me Different? 1️⃣ Direct-Response Focused – Every word I write is designed to sell. No fluff, no filler—just ROI-driven copy that turns browsers into buyers. 2️⃣ Proven, Repeatable Results – My work isn’t guesswork; it’s built on data-driven frameworks from MECLABS, StoryBrand, and Gap Selling. 3️⃣ I Teach What I Do – I created The Simple Copywriting System, a self-study masterclass on copywriting that helps business owners and marketers master persuasion. 4️⃣ ChatGPT & AI Marketing Expert – I don’t just write copy—I train businesses to harness AI for rapid growth in content, ads, and sales automation. 5️⃣ FREE Value Proposition Development Session – Most businesses struggle with a weak, unclear value proposition. I help you fix this before writing a single word, ensuring your message is magnetic to your audience. 🛠 Tools & Platforms I Work With: ✔ AI & ChatGPT Marketing Tools – Prompt Engineering, AI Automation ✔ Sales Funnel Builders: ClickFunnels, Unbounce, Instapage, Leadpages ✔ Website Platforms: WordPress, Divi, Beaver Builder ✔ Email Marketing: Aweber, Mailchimp, ConvertKit, ActiveCampaign ✔ Ad Platforms: Google Ads (GDN, YouTube), Facebook/Instagram, AdRoll ✔ A/B Testing & CRO Tools: Google Optimize, Hotjar, VWO 🔥 PLUS: I’m a ChatGPT & AI-Powered Marketing Expert AI is changing the game, but most businesses don’t know how to use it properly. I’ve created an entire course teaching marketers how to leverage ChatGPT to explode sales, boost productivity, and streamline content creation. I can help you: ✅ Automate Your Content & Sales Messaging (without losing authenticity) ✅ Train ChatGPT for Your Business (so it speaks in your brand’s voice) ✅ Turn AI into a Sales Asset (from ad copy to entire funnels) 💡 Why does this matter? Because businesses that integrate AI properly are scaling faster, lowering costs, and winning bigger. Let me show you how. 🚀 Let’s Turn Your Offers into Sales Machines If you want high-performing copy that boosts conversions, increases sales, and actually moves the needle, let’s talk. I look forward to helping you scale your business with copy that sells. 👉 Click the "Hire" button, and let’s make your marketing work harder for you. - Chris
