In the website's About page the founder says clients come from personal referrals, workshops and training, and the free audit, and also mentions a client who found him on Instagram; the website shows 35 Google five-star reviews. No marketing channel was filled in on Revenue record. Existing clients come back through follow-up training, Marketing Hub subscriptions (10 subscriptions, MRR $1,074), and repeat purchases on new projects.
