$1.19M - safe to say, we made it 🙃

Hey Champ,

Last year in January 2024.

I put up a post (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jacob-pegs_my-plan-to-a-7-figure-business-productize-activity-7131260942423597057-2o-V) on how I would get to $1M.

It’s now a year later and safe to say.

“We made it.”

I won’t go into the details as they’re in the post you can read here.

I uploaded a 30 minute "Retro" inside Modern Maker showing the behind the scenes of exactly what worked, what didn't and what the plan is for 2025. It was a big success, so I'm stoked to be doing more of these.

Last year, it was all about money.

Because I believe freedom is downstream of financial freedom.

Last year was all about coaching & consulting.

Because I used time, my most valuable yet scarce asset to help a handful of people build $100K businesses.

And it’s something that always remains in my heart and will forever be a way of earning for me.

You know, a lot of people work incredibly hard to make your life easy.

Because they help push you past boundaries and beliefs.

But in leading 2025 with this quote:

“Once you’ve had enough to eat, feed others.”

I realized, I’m a lot more technical than I make it out to be.

And I lead with consulting.

But this year I want to lead with CREATING.

We are all Creators one way or another.

Modern Makers.

Who put digital bytes, content, ideas and offers together to earn, teach and pass on our philosophy.

But Creating comes with technical jargon.

The most successful creators I know have many skills, that make their work possible:

- Automations
- Prioritization
- Sequences
- Copywriting
- Time management
- Energy management
- Graphic design
- Domain management
- User Experience Flows
- Sales
- Human psychology
- Relationship building
- Speaking publicly
…we call ourselves “creators." I in hindsight believe are more than that. We're unicorns of our own.

So in my pursuit to help more of you become highly profitable and leveraged creators & modern makers.

I’ll be introducing 3 tiers to Modern Maker. To make it a lot more accessible for all.

Because all of us deserve a piece of the pie wherever we are in the journey, should you wish to have it.

Whether you’re making your first $1 dollar, or you’re in the multiple millions.

Modern Maker is here to help you become a better creator.

One that’s data driven, experimental and bases their decisions on proven strategies.

Where we lead with community-first.

Together.

I’ll be a lot more transparent, granular, and productive driven in my approach.

So every single one of you can win.

I’m so thankful.

So since I’ve had enough to eat.

It’s time to feed others.

Much love.

I'll be back with more info, once I've recovered from last night's shenanigans.

Power to you,

Jacob "create with leverage" Pegs
