I almost quit Pentaclay in the first few months.
Nov 2023 I launched a design subscription. Around $2,500 a month, unlimited requests. Nobody signed up. Not one person.
So I cut the price. A 2 week trial for about $500 to $1,100. People finally said yes. 3 clients by the end of 2023, one of them took the trial 2-3 times in a row.
And it got worse. Less money, way more work. Every message was "one more small change". I worked all day and still wasn't making enough. By December I was burned out.
So I tried something different. I made one Framer template. Took me almost 2 months to build.
First month it made $134. Small money, but no calls, no revisions, and it sold while I slept.
If you run a startup, what was the moment you almost quit?
That $134 month is such a good turning point, small money but it proved something could work without you being on call. Did the template buyers end up becoming a way into bigger client work too?

Most businesses don't struggle because their potential customers don't exist.
They struggle because they lack a structured process to find, engage, and convert the right decision-makers into sales opportunities.
And that's where strategic B2B prospecting makes the difference.

It's not having the biggest prospect database.
It's having a repeatable system that connects your business with people who are actually relevant to your offer.

That's the process I help B2B businesses build and manage.

Love that, right questions over more questions. Which trigger signal has given you the best meetings so far?
A law firm was losing good leads because every inquiry sat in an inbox until someone had time to read it.
So I built them a set of AI lead intake agents in Make.com. Each new inquiry is now read by OpenAI, sorted by case type, enriched with Apollo, email-checked with ZeroBounce, logged to Google Sheets and routed to the right attorney. No copy-pasting, no lead left waiting.
This is the kind of work I do: AI automation in Make.com, n8n, Zapier and GoHighLevel, plus the project and operations management that keeps a team's systems running after launch.
If your team is still moving leads or tasks by hand, my services are on my profile. Happy to look at your workflow and tell you what can be automated first.
Clean chain — read, sort by case type, enrich, verify, log, route. No single step is flashy, but together they kill the inbox delay that was losing the leads. One question: when an inquiry doesn't fit a case type cleanly, where does it land? A general queue a person clears, or does the agent take a second pass before routing it?
