You run growth for creators. Who runs yours?

You built the funnels. You ran the launches. You manage the ad spend. But when someone asks your margin per client, you guess. We fix that.

The blindspots

Five numbers you should know.
And probably don't.

01

Margin per client

You have 4 clients. Which one is most profitable? If you're guessing it's the one who pays the most — you're probably wrong. Contractor costs, tool subscriptions, and your time change the math.

02

Rev-share vs retainer math

That $80K rev-share launch felt like a windfall. After contractor costs, fronted ad spend, and taxes you didn't set aside — it was your worst margin. Your $10K retainer was 3x more profitable per hour.

03

Tax reserves

$320K invoiced last year. Best year ever. $71K tax bill in April. $23K in the account. Payment plan. Interest. The money was there in June. It was spent by December.

04

Contractor cost creep

$22K/month in retainers. Media buyer, creative strategist, VA. After contractors, tools, and the float on fronted ad spend — $8K take-home. Less than when you were solo at $15K.

05

Pricing by feel

You charge $7.5K per launch because it “feels right.” Your cost to deliver is $5,800. Your margin is $1,700 for six weeks of work. The bigger launch you just priced at $15K should be $22K.

The math

Same clients. Same work.
Different structure.

Before
Solo operator
$30K/month invoiced
4 creator clients
Take-home $12K/mo
After
Same clients, same work
Dropped one engagement
Renegotiated one contract
Set up tax reserves
Take-home $21K/mo

The revenue went down. The profit went up.

How it works

30 minutes. Your real numbers. Free.

1

Book the assessment

30 minutes on a call. Bring your numbers or don't — we'll work with what you have. No pitch deck. No discovery call. Your actual financial situation.

2

See your margins

We show you your margin per client, your real take-home, your tax exposure, and which engagements are underwater. The stuff your bookkeeper doesn't tell you because it's not their job.

3

Decide with data

Keep, drop, or renegotiate each client based on actual margins. Price your next engagement from cost structure, not gut feel. Set up the tax reserves that prevent the April surprise.

“I’m not big enough for a CFO.” If you’re invoicing $20K+/month across multiple clients with contractors, you have CFO-level complexity. You just don’t have a CFO.

You invoiced $30K last month.
