Sleazy Tactics

Inbound is great.
But it has limits.

You've built something real. People who find you, love you. But your pipeline is basically a prayer — you're waiting on referrals, hoping LinkedIn does something, refreshing your inbox.

You know outbound is the answer, but every time you try it, something feels off. The scripts feel gross. The responses feel cold. It doesn't feel like you.

So you put it off. Another month goes by. The pipeline stays thin.

I spent years selling the wrong way — following scripts that felt hollow, chasing prospects who were never going to close, and wondering why nothing was working. Then I figured out that the problem wasn't my product. It was my approach.

I rebuilt my sales process from the ground up: founder-first, human-first, no BS. It works. And I built this program to teach it to other founders who are stuck where I was.

This isn't theory. Every framework in this cohort is something I've tested in the field, refined through real deals, and watched work for other founders.

Be honest with yourself.

This program works — but only for people who are actually ready for it.

✅ This is for you if…

  • You're a founder who relies mostly on inbound and referrals and knows it has limits
  • You've tried outbound before but it felt gross or just didn't work
  • You want to build real pipeline — not just spray LinkedIn with templates
  • You're willing to put in the work between sessions
  • You want to sell in a way that actually feels like you

🚫 This isn't for you if…

  • You're looking for scripts to copy-paste without thinking
  • You want quick hacks, silver bullets, or overnight results
  • You already have a fully functional outbound motion that's working
  • You're not willing to show up and do the work between sessions

The May cohort starts May 5.
