The Real Story Behind a 10x Revenue Increase

Two years ago, Brodie Kern was making $30K a month. Not terrible, but he knew he was leaving money on the table. A lot of money.

Today? He’s consistently hitting $300K+ monthly. And over the past five years of working together, he’s generated millions in total revenue directly from the content, VSLs, and ad campaigns we’ve created for him.

I’m sharing his complete transformation because it shows exactly what’s possible when you get serious about your content strategy and commit to the process.

Meet Brodie Kern: From Rock Bottom to 8-Figure Success

Brodie’s story hits different. Former addict turned serial entrepreneur. Burnout survivor turned business coach. He’s the founder of Stupid Simple Scale and helps entrepreneurs break through their own glass ceilings.

But when he first reached out to us, you’d never guess any of that from his online presence.

His situation when we started:

  • 200 Instagram followers (seriously)
  • Zero content momentum
  • No clear messaging or positioning
  • Brand that looked outdated compared to his actual success
  • Zero video content (in a video-first world)
  • Audience that wasn’t converting to leads or sales

Sound familiar? This is where most successful entrepreneurs find themselves – too busy building their business to build their brand.

The 4 Key Strategies That Made This Possible

1. The Mock Interview Method

Instead of scripted content, we ask strategic questions and let authentic answers flow. This creates dozens of pieces of natural, engaging content in one session.

2. Vulnerability + Credibility Formula

Brodie's willingness to share real struggles (addiction, failures, comebacks) combined with proven business results created an unbeatable connection with his audience.

3. Platform-Specific Content Strategy

- Reels: For maximum reach and viral potential
- Carousels: For deep engagement and education
- Stories: For daily connection and behind-the-scenes
- Picture Posts: For storytelling and brand building

4. Paid Media Amplification

We don't just create great content - we strategically amplify what's working with targeted ads to guarantee your best content reaches your ideal audience.

What Brodie Says About the Results

— Brodie Kern
"I have made millions of dollars from the content this team has produced. I've worked with a lot of media teams over the years, and nobody gets it like they do. The videos, the VSLs, the ads - they've helped me scale from 30K to 300K a month. If you're serious about growing your brand, this is the team."

Why This Works (And Why Most Content Strategies Fail)

Most entrepreneurs try to:

  • Post randomly without strategy
  • Create content in isolation
  • Focus on vanity metrics instead of revenue
  • Give up after 30-60 days
  • Try to do everything themselves
