Being a great mixer
is not enough.

I’m tired of watching talented engineers go broke.

Yes, it takes skill to compete with the best—but that’s not the whole story.

It also takes strategies, systems, and a mindset that most people I’ve met in the pro audio industry simply don’t have.

My goal? To help you transform how you think, act, and respond to your career so you can create the life you actually want.

Not theory. Not fluff. Real, proven frameworks that work.

The Real Reason You're Not Making Real Money

🧠 The 3AM Panic Attack

You bolt awake remembering you forgot to invoice that client. Again. While engineers with systems sleep soundly knowing their automated workflows handle everything.

💰 The Inflation Trap

Still charging 2015 rates in 2025? Your skills improved but your rates didn't. Meanwhile, your rent doubled and that client just bought their third investment property.

😰 The Spouse Conversation

"Honey, this month is slow... again." You're tired of explaining why your talent doesn't translate to consistent income while watching less-skilled engineers book solid.

🔥 The Yes-Man Burnout

Midnight revisions. Weekend sessions. Saying yes to everything because you're terrified to lose clients. You're not a business owner - you're an on-call employee without benefits.

FAQs

  • That's exactly why you need this. You don't have time because you don't have systems. Our clients save 15-20 hours per week within the first month. You can't afford NOT to have time for this.

  • You're right, it is. And that's exactly why it works. You know what else is a lot? Losing $3-5k every month from undercharging. One properly priced project pays for this entire program.

  • Math is in Santa Cruz. Julia is in Berlin. James is in LA. This isn't about location - it's about positioning. The internet made geography irrelevant for smart engineers.

  • Of course. Here's the question: Do they approve of your current struggle? If not, why would they disapprove of fixing it? Book a call and we'll create a plan they'll love.

  • You're reading this at 11pm worried about next month's rent. You're ready. The only question is whether you'll act or spend another year in the same spot.

  • We've helped bedroom producers hit their first $5k month and established engineers scale to $30k+. This is about business systems, not mixing skill. If you have clie
