Consultant to early stage tech companies Campaigns reaching over 100 million views lifetime Over 500 clients consulted Specialty in technology and finance I work with early-stage tech companies for marketing and business development. I love working with people who are building great technology and are passionate about their projects. Selling has always been exciting for me, ever since I was tasked with selling chocolate bars for Little League when I was 10 years old. It was like a game, and the rush of getting a YES after so many rejections was fuel to knock on the next door. As I moved into adulthood, I started my first official sales job selling cell phones in a mall kiosk. Having potential customers walking past was a much easier endeavor than knocking on doors. I eventually graduated to selling more advanced products, such as wind turbines, education services, and marketing data. Sales was always enjoyable, and I consistently performed at the #1 position on my teams. However, I saw the limiting nature of sales, as you could only sell to a restricted number of people in a day (between 10-100). The obvious evolution of any salespersons career is marketing, and I knew the transition needed to happen. When transitioning to marketing, I knew the learning curve was going to be much higher than in sales. With 6 years of sales experience under my belt, understanding buyer psychology and buyer experience was a huge advantage. However, learning technical distribution and marketing funnels was more complicated than I had expected. As with everything in life, the more complicated it is, the more I want to master it, and dedicated myself to learning as much as possible, as quickly as possible. Within the first year of transitioning to marketing, I had serviced all of 2 clients but had spent over 4,000 hours learning the tools of the trade. Going into year 2, I already had an intermediate understanding of marketing. I was able to land my first major client, which was in the cryptocurrency space in the summer of 2017. I was able to help this company raise $14 million USD in extra funds during my tenure which allowed me to grow my knowledge and skills as a marketer. I continued to work with blockchain companies for several years, although my desire shifted towards emerging technology companies. In year 3, I opened a marketing firm to service blockchain-specific companies with an emphasis on digital marketing services and PR. At this point, I had reached well over 10,000 hours of experience, making me an expert in marketing. I was able to work with many great companies across multiple industries, giving me insight into the diversity of technology companies, the missions of CEOs from different countries, and the desire to gain users and spread messages across the web. In year 4, I decided to partner with two others to start a fintech company to develop fractional ownership of high-value assets. While starting with good intentions, issues with the lead investor led to the eventual failure and closure of this company. This pushed back my advancement with my marketing firm, which I had shut down to focus primarily on this venture. In year 5, it made sense to learn from past mistakes to develop a marketing firm that focuses on startup needs and emphasizes on go-to market and fractional services. I focused on servicing clients in a consulting capacity only while developing SOPs for agency growth. In year 6, I began partnering with companies here on Upwork as well as through my own networking. My focus was honed into specifically partnering with early-stage tech companies, especially those in fintech, edtech, medtech and SaaS. Most of my services shifted primarily to marketing strategy and business development. Year 7 continued where year 6 left off, with a growth focus on partnering with companies based on their budgets. This included a higher emphasis on consultation and increased investor relations for companies looking to fundraise. Year 8 saw a shift in the way I partner with companies. Not only was I working for cash, but also equity deals to work with companies. This includes consultation, advisory and exploring board positions. The shift towards equity allows for a personal stake businesses and increased chance of success. Going into year 9, I am continuing my partnerships with early-stage tech companies for marketing strategy, investor-focused services, business development, buyers journey mapping, sales development, fractional services, campaign deployment, marketing team growth, and revenue generation. I am extremely comprehensive in my approach and ensure that all bases are covered. I am also working on several projects outside of my work with clients, including a mobile application and a platform for early-stage companies.

⚠️ Before you message me, a quick heads up: I do NOT take on projects under $2K (unless it’s a paid 1-hour consult). I’m also not interested in rev-share, “commission-only,” or test gigs. If you're serious about scaling and have a budget to back it — let’s talk. Hi, I’m Jay Minakhom — Growth Architect and creator of the Formula One Solution 🚗💨 I help auto repair shops, junk removal companies, med spas, and HVAC businesses go from “slow weeks” to fully booked calendars using high-performance ad funnels, VSLs, and AI-powered follow-up. If you’ve been burned by freelancers or agencies who overpromised and underdelivered… you’re not alone. That’s exactly why I built the Formula One Solution — a done-for-you system that delivers 60–120+ qualified leads/month and real-time ROI you can track down to the dollar. 💥 Real Results: 📍 NCW Tires: $17K in booked jobs in just 10 days 📍 Local Brake Shop: Tripled bookings in 30 days 📍 Mobile Mechanic in AZ: 62 diesel leads in one month 📍 HVAC Co. in CA: $38K in installs from 2 campaigns I’ve helped dozens of businesses scale from word-of-mouth to full-blown pipelines using just 3 things: Good ads. Great strategy. Real follow-up. 🧠 What You Get Working With Me: ✅ FB/Google Ad Campaigns built for conversion ✅ High-Converting VSL Funnels (custom-built) ✅ AI Follow-Up Sequences (SMS/email) ✅ ROI Dashboards + Lead Tracking ✅ Call Scripts that help your team close ✅ 7-day launch timeline (no agency delay BS) Everything is built custom — no templates, no cookie-cutter campaigns. Just systems that work. ⚠️ Who I Work With: ✔️ Auto Repair Shops (independent, Euro, diesel, AC, etc.) ✔️ Junk Removal Pros (who want consistent local leads) ✔️ HVAC Companies (install/repair/tune-up packages) ✔️ Med Spas (Botox, microneedling, IV, fat loss, etc.) ✔️ Service Businesses doing $20K–$200K/month If you’re already spending at least $9K–$25K/month on ads (or ready to start), I can help you dominate. 💸 Investment Structure (No Setup Fee – Just Results): Tier 1️⃣ – Under $10K/month ad spend → $2,000/month Tier 2️⃣ – $10K–$25K → $2,800/month Tier 3️⃣ – $25K–$50K → 9% of ad spend Tier 4️⃣ – $50K–$100K+ → 7% or custom pricing 📌 Min Ad Budget $9K/month for Auto, Junk, HVAC $25K/month for Med Spas or High-Ticket Lead Gen 🔒 What I Don’t Do: 🚫 Manage suspended ad accounts 🚫 Take equity, profit-share, or “deferred payment” deals 🚫 Answer strategy questions for free in chat — please book a consult Why Clients Stick With Me: I’m not an agency. I’m not passing you off to an intern. You get me — strategy, execution, and real-time feedback, 7 days a week. I treat every client’s business like mine. If the leads stop coming in, I fix it — fast. 💬 Want a test campaign breakdown, results deck, or quick Loom walkthrough? Happy to send. I believe in showing, not just telling. 👉 I’m only taking 2–3 clients/month right now to maintain performance. If you’re ready to finally stop guessing and start scaling — send me a message with your goals + ad budget. Let’s build a system that floods your calendar and scales with speed. — Jay Minakhom Your Growth Architect. Your Unfair Advantage.
