Some personal news I've kept quiet for a while.
I have stepped away from the day to day at DREAMLABS.
Years ago I took off a badge to bet on myself. That bet became a brand, then an agency that grew from zero to 45 clients, worked with names like Pepsi, Justin Bieber and many more, managing over $1B in ad spend.
I'm not ashamed to say I cried more than once making this decision. I care about this agency, our clients and our team more than I know how to put in a post.
I was offered the CMO seat at an extremely fast growing Telehealth company.
An 8-figure annual contract, equity, and a company on the path to an IPO north of $4B.
Opportunities like that come once, if you're lucky. I couldn't look at my family and say no.
But I wasn't going to leave the people who built this with me in anything less than great hands.
So I gave back 95% of my equity to bring in two killers who scaled MVMT, Ritual and Dollar Shave Club as VPs of Marketing & eCommerce. Those two are the single best people I could find and are better than me at a lot of this.
I continue to advise at the agency and help in every facet that I can but I now manage in a CRO role and help on accounts when the team runs into issues.
To my business partner: Thank you for trusting me to be such a big part of your life and helping build this machine. Thank you for being so understanding about this decision, I will forever be grateful to you.
To my team: you built this as much as I did. Every late night, every launch, every fire we put out together. I'm proud of you, and I'll be in your corner for life.
To our clients: you trusted us with your businesses and your money. That never stopped meaning something to me. You're in the best hands you've ever been in, I promise you.
Thank you for the best chapter of my life thus far and I am sorry to everyone who was impacted by my decision.
I tried to handle it the best way I possibly could and do the right thing for myself and for the agency.
We're cooking on our next newsletter.
We'll be sharing memos from our top mentors.
My ask is that they have a clear, non obvious, point of view on a subject, not just generic fluff.
My goal is for these memos to make you think.

2.5 years ago, I built the Cadence website
18 months ago, I was answering every customer support ticket
A year ago, I was briefing every ad
8 months ago, I was contracting creators, influencers and athletes
8 weeks ago, I was still sending every email campaign
Today, I’ve built a lean, world class team behind those areas
Pleased to have joined @MentorPass to share what I’ve learned so far
If you’re building a brand and thinking through your next big swing, let’s talk

Human Intelligence, our new media brand, is now live!
This is a space for us to share wisdom from the brilliant humans at the frontier of our industry.
Our mission has always been to connect you with the help you need. This is one more way for us to do that, at scale.
Q3 was a breakout for MentorPass.
Revenue was up 120% over our previous all time high (last quarter), we expanded gross margin, and cut opex.
We’re seeing more uptake on our coaching retainers, which is compounding into a nice recurring base.
All growth driven by organic network effects (and some shitposting) to this point.
We de-listed ~100 mentors who had flaky acceptance rates and it had a bigger than expected impact on customer success (and company morale).
Six years in, we’re finding our stride. Thanks for sticking with us.
Big things coming to kickoff Q4.
Time to turn a moment into a movement.
I'm excited to be offering my advisory services on @MentorPass! Join to get personalized advice from me and 100s of other world-class startup advisors. https://t.co/NDwFVmBuui
Been getting active again on @MentorPass and forgot how much I love teaching and yapping.
My last two calls called me a "super genius" so if you want some of this super genius HMU.
Building and scaling B2B SaaS GTM is really hard. Would love to help!
Also s/o to @kennyhanson for building such a mega platform.

I want to bring our top mentors together to turnaround Nike and Under Armour.
These are great American companies and they’re worth fighting for.
Legacy consulting firms have only led them astray, a new way is needed.
Make Nike Great Again.
“Most people who book me on @MentorPass are doing $25-50M and they’re stuck. 90% of the time it’s because the offer is stale and not aggressive enough.” - @RomanEcom
