I help U.S. businesses navigate SMS approval, deliverability, and compliance requirements - reducing the risk of carrier rejections, blocked traffic, and regulatory issues. I specialize in A2P SMS compliance and deliverability, including 10DLC registration, Toll-Free Verification (TFN), and TCPA/CTIA consent audits, as well as diagnosing carrier-level delivery problems. My work focuses on aligning SMS programs with current carrier and regulatory expectations so they can operate and scale responsibly in the U.S. market. If your messages are being rejected, filtered, or delayed - or you’re unsure whether your consent flow and use case will withstand carrier or legal review—I can help assess and correct the underlying issues. What I Do • 10DLC brand & campaign registration (new submissions, rejections, reclassifications) • Toll-Free Verification (TFN) setup and resubmissions • TCPA / CTIA compliance audits (opt-in flows, disclosures, opt-out handling) • SMS deliverability diagnostics (carrier filtering, content flags, throughput limits) • Platform-specific guidance (Infobip, Twilio, GoHighLevel, ClickSend, SimpleTexting) • Compliance-aware SMS automation (webhooks, triggers, rate-limiting, quiet hours)

We help peptide brands turn email into their most profitable channel. If less than 30% of your revenue is coming from email right now, you're leaving serious money on the table. Most peptide brands sit somewhere around 10 to 25% because their flows are half built and their campaigns are reactive instead of planned. With the right setup, that number usually climbs to 35 to 60%. That's the whole gap we close. Where most peptide brands are losing revenue: Welcome series that exist but barely convert. Abandoned cart flows that are live but never properly optimized. A campaign calendar that reacts instead of plans ahead. Deliverability nobody's actually watching. Every one of these is revenue quietly walking out the door. Real results from real peptide brands we work with: Northwest Peptide: $120,305 in email revenue over 90 days (40.4% of total store revenue) Peak Lab Peptide: $465,956 in email revenue over 90 days Best Peptides: $176,609 in email revenue over 30 days (41.5% of total store revenue) Voltera Sciences: a brand new peptide store we onboarded from day one, hit $56,231 in month one, with email driving $17,321 of that (30.8%) Strike Point Peptides: 48.5% of revenue from email in their first 30 days Arizona Peptides: 45.4% of revenue from email over the same window Across all our peptide clients combined, we've generated over $60M in tracked email revenue. Compliance matters more here than in most niches. We build every flow, every campaign, and every automation with that in mind from day one, so you're not stuck worrying about account health or deliverability risk while we run your retention side. Here's what you can rely on us for. These are the specific things we handle for peptide brands every single week: - Klaviyo and Omnisend setup built specifically for peptide brands - Peptide email flows including welcome, abandoned cart, post purchase, and win back - SMS marketing for peptide brands through Klaviyo, Attentive, or Postscript - Campaign strategy and calendar management for peptide email marketing - Segmentation and behavioral targeting so peptide customers get the right message at the right time - Deliverability and inbox placement so your peptide emails actually land - Email copywriting and template design tailored to peptide brands - Ongoing testing and monthly reporting so we know what's actually working Why peptide brands keep working with us Most agencies treat peptide brands the same way they'd treat a skincare brand or a supplement store, and that's usually where things start falling apart. Peptide customers behave differently. They research more before buying, they care a lot about trust signals, and they respond really well to email and SMS when it's done right, probably more than most other DTC categories we've seen. That's the whole reason we went all in on peptide marketing instead of trying to serve five different niches at once. We've worked across pretty much every type of peptide brand out there, from newer companies just getting their Shopify store off the ground to established peptide companies doing consistent six and seven figure months. Whether you're just getting your first welcome flow live or your whole email program needs a rebuild from scratch, we've probably seen a version of your situation before. How we usually get started When a peptide brand messages us, the first thing we do is a full audit. We look at your existing flows, your past campaigns, your list health, and your deliverability, and figure out exactly where the gaps are. From there we put together a 90 day roadmap that's specific to your store, not some generic template pulled from a course. Some brands need a full rebuild, others just need a few things tightened up. Either way, you'll know exactly what we'd do before anything gets started. A team that only works on peptide accounts Our team isn't juggling ten different industries at once. Everyone working on your account has spent real time inside peptide brand email marketing specifically, which means less time explaining your niche to us and more time actually building things that convert. We know the customer journey, we know the objections peptide buyers usually have, and we know how to write copy that speaks to that without ever crossing any lines on compliance. If your peptide brand's email feels like it's just kind of there instead of actually working for you, that's usually exactly the gap we find. Message me here with your brand name and roughly where email sits in your revenue mix, and I'll send back a free audit along with a 90 day roadmap so you know exactly what's possible before committing to anything.

Every day your GoHighLevel sits half-built, a lead finds someone else. Not because your offer is weak. Not because your market is too competitive. But because the system that was supposed to capture them, follow up with them, and book them, quietly failed at step one. And nobody told you. That's the thing about a broken GHL. It doesn't crash. It doesn't show error messages. It just silently lets money walk out the door while looking completely fine on the surface. You've probably stared at your pipeline wondering why leads aren't moving. Refreshed your calendar hoping an appointment magically appeared. Told yourself you'll "fix the automation stuff" next week. Next week has been next week for a while now. Your GHL isn't broken. It was just never built to make money. There's a difference between a GoHighLevel account that's set up and one that's engineered to close. Setup is what happens when someone clicks through GHL until the errors stop showing. Engineering is what happens when a stranger sees your ad on Monday, enters your funnel, gets followed up with automatically, books a call, gets reminded twice, shows up, and moves through your pipeline, without you touching a single thing. That's not magic. That's just GoHighLevel built correctly. And that's exactly what I build. Notifications. Activity. Movement. But no revenue. I've been inside enough GHL accounts to find these leaks in the first hour. And I fix them faster than whoever created them. What makes me different from every other GHL freelancer you've considered: I have a brand and visual design background. Most GHL specialists are pure technicians. Their automations fire correctly but their funnels look like they were designed during a power cut by someone's cousin who "does computers." Mine work and look expensive. Your landing pages will feel premium, load fast, and make cold traffic trust you before you say a single word. Your funnels won't just convert, they'll look like you invested in them. Technical precision. Visual quality. Same person. Same project. Same invoice. You don't need two freelancers anymore. What I build inside GoHighLevel: ✅ Funnels & Landing Pages — Lead gen, VSL, booking, webinar funnels wired directly into your pipeline. Built to convert, not just exist. ✅ Automation & Workflows — Conditional logic, triggers, time-delays, fail-safes. Runs clean at 3am. No conflicts. No broken triggers. ✅ CRM & Pipeline Architecture — Lead scoring, smart tagging, automated stage movement. A pipeline that makes decisions obvious. ✅ AI Agents & Conversation AI — Qualifies leads, handles objections, books appointments 24/7. ✅ SMS, Email & Multi-Channel Sequences Behaviour-triggered Who this is built for: ✅ Marketing agencies running GHL for multiple clients and tired of explaining why automations broke again ✅ Coaches and consultants whose calendar should be full but isn't ✅ Real estate teams, HVAC, med spas, law firms, local service businesses losing leads daily ✅ Anyone who has had GHL "set up" before and is still waiting to feel it ✅ Agencies who need scalable infrastructure without the Sunday night panic Don't message me if: ❌ You want the cheapest option and plan to figure out quality later ❌ You're okay with "it worked on my end" as a final answer ❌ You want someone to click through settings, call it done, and disappear How we work together: Step 1 — You message me One sentence. Tell me what's broken or what you want built. Step 2 — I come back with a real plan Not a template. Not a generic proposal. A specific breakdown of exactly what I'd do for your situation, before you spend anything. Step 3 — We build it right Clean. Tested end-to-end. Handed off running, with a full walkthrough so you actually understand your own system and aren't dependent on me forever. Packages STARTER ✅ GHL account setup and CRM configuration ✅ Pipeline and contact management system ✅ Basic automation and follow-up sequences GROWTH ✅ Full funnel build with automation logic ✅ Multi-channel sequences — SMS, email, voicemail ✅ Integrations and lead source connections ✅ AI chatbot or Conversation AI setup FULL SYSTEM ✅ Complete GHL revenue system built from scratch ✅ Funnel architecture + CRM + automation + AI agents ✅ SaaS Mode and agency snapshot builds ✅ Full audit, rebuild, and optimisation ✅ Walkthrough documentation and full handoff support A GoHighLevel account without proper engineering is just an expensive subscription to a platform full of untapped potential. I don't build subscriptions. I build systems that turn your GHL into the best salesperson you've ever hired, one that never sleeps, never forgets to follow up, never has a bad day, and never once asks for a commission. If you want your GoHighLevel to finally work the way you always believed it could. ✅ Message me now. Because the leads you're losing today are not coming back tomorrow. And somewhere out there, a competitor with a properly built GHL is catching every single one of them.
