ADDENDUM

Eager to see how far I could push things, I hired a team, and we started scaling aggressively. Within 1-year, we were making $18m /year, and by year-2, we were making $36m /year. I featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list; we had a fancy NYC office, 45 staff, and spent $40k /day on ads. People started noticing me on the streets. I was semi-famous. But beneath the surface, things were chaotic, profit margins suffered, I didn't know my clients, and I started to hate my life... Tired of putting out endless fires and working 18-hour days, my wife and I moved to LA, California, and I started simplifying my Frankenstein of a business. The idea was simple: More with less. We aimed to maximize: profits, client results, and founder happiness - while simultaneously - minimizing: complexity, costs, headcount, and stress. After two years of experimentation, we found what we believe is the perfect model. We call it "7-Figure Zen", we live it, and we teach it too... We help these founders achieve..
