Published 5 days, 16 hours ago
Description
Most SMMA owners think they need 100 clients to hit $10k/mo. Wrong. Jake Rivera breaks down why you actually need just 2-5 high-value clients and the exact system to land them. Stop chasing follower counts and start building real recurring revenue.
🎯 What You'll Learn:
• Why charging $1,500-$5,000 per client is the sweet spot (and how to justify those rates)
• The hybrid model that lets you scale without hiring 20 employees
• Which local businesses pay premium rates for lead generation (hint: it's not restaurants)
• The 6-18 month roadmap from $0 to $10k MRR that actually works
👤 Perfect for: SMMA owners stuck under $3k/month who are tired of grinding for peanuts and want to build something that scales.
