I Shut Down My $50K/Month Agency — Here’s Why You Might Want To Do The Same

For years, I ran a social media marketing agency pulling in $50,000/month profit.
From the outside, it looked like the dream.
Inside?

Stress. Burnout. Zero freedom.

Here’s the hard truth about SMMA, done-for-you services, or 1-on-1 coaching:

You’re selling your time (not scalable)

You’re constantly on calls

You’re judged on last month’s results — and one bad week can cost you a client

Churn never stops

You’re always putting out fires

It pays well… but at the cost of your sanity.
That’s why I switched to a digital product business model.

Here’s why it’s better:
✅ Instant delivery — no onboarding, no ad account access, no meetings
✅ 100% scalable — create once, sell thousands of times
✅ Yearly payments upfront — no monthly churn headaches
✅ Low stress — customers do the work themselves (DIY), not you
✅ Higher profit margins — 80–90%+ possible, even with a small team

When I made the switch:

Agency profit (1 year): $600K

Digital product profit (1 year): $1.3M

Less stress, more freedom, and a business I actually enjoy running

I’m not saying SMMA is bad — for beginners, it’s a great way to learn skills and make quick cash.
But long-term? It’s a golden handcuff.

If you skip the grind and start with a scalable info business from day one, you can:

Build a high-profit business without endless client calls

Leverage YouTube or organic traffic without millions of views

Sell high-ticket offers that change lives — including yours

I explain exactly how this model works and how to start here:
