JACOB
NEFFENDORF

The founder of Rise Online Advertising was stuck at $40K MRR for 18 months — doing every job in his business himself. One year after joining Seven Figure Agency, he crossed $200,000 in monthly recurring revenue.

The Problem

He Was Doing Every Job in the Business

Jacob had built Rise Online Advertising into a $40K/month business serving land clearing companies. But for 18 months, the number wouldn't move. The reason was simple — and brutal: Jacob was the bottleneck.

Every sale, every piece of fulfillment, every client call — it all ran through him. There was no room to grow because there was no room to breathe. He needed systems, a team, and a blueprint to build both.

The Transformation

How Jacob Rebuilt His Business in a Year

1
Step 1

Joined Seven Figure Agency

Jacob stopped trying to figure it out alone. He joined SFA and immediately connected with agency owners who had already solved the exact problems he was facing.

2
Step 2

Built Systems & Processes

With the SFA playbook, Jacob documented and systematized every part of his business — creating repeatable processes that didn't require him to be involved in every step.

3
Step 3

Hired an Account Manager

The first hire freed Jacob from client communication and fulfillment. Suddenly, he had time to think strategically instead of reactively.

4
Step 4

Hired a Media Buyer

With a media buyer in place, Jacob removed himself from core fulfillment — the last piece keeping him trapped in the day-to-day.

5
Step 5

Focused on Growth — Hit $200K MRR

Free from operations, Jacob turned his full attention to growing the business. In just over a year, Rise Online Advertising crossed $200,000 in monthly recurring revenue.

"Attending this event allowed me to meet other agency owners and realize that everyone has the same problems and that I'm not in this alone."
