From Teenage Dropout to $85K Per Month Agency Owner, The Leo Ahmad Story - Different Hunger

all right so Miss Talia mr. one of our og accelerator students members back in the day back before you had such nice locks right but uh but yeah you want to tell us a little bit about and we did another interview about two years ago so this will be kind of like a follow-up because our boys making

more moves making you know bigger hitting bigger numbers and doing awesome things so I want to kind of recap on what you've been doing so just real quick Ronnie sherry like who you were before we started working together before you you know we're crushing it with your agency yes before I started I was pretty much in university

and I wasn't really doing anything with my life to be honest I remember had like 15 percent attendance in in college like yeah I was pretty much just messing around so like I figured that if I stayed in college then I would just be like a mess to be honest so our four I need to find something

that's actually gonna help you make money will help me just like sustain if I failed college so then I found Matt and they reached out to me and we pretty much go on a coup and and they were telling me about this agency accelerator and I just thought to myself wow like I could literally replace college with

this my course basically so I really stuck to it and I remember I dropped out with the intention is to completely replace it and I managed to have like a huge success in such a short period of time so yeah he kraebel for it yeah sweet and so I mean what kind of business did you have or

like what stage we got before you joined yeah so before I joined I was pretty much just like I was doing Instagram growth but I was like a one-man team and I was just trying to do as many different things as possible was getting really distracted and my income was just like really fluctuating someone so make like

someone to make zero sometimes I'd make a caffeine and yeah this wasn't consistent I always to be in the business so I don't have time to focus on myself then eventually I got to a point where I really dive deep into the course and after like a few months even or even a few months like a couple

months I've already my mindset was starting to change on how I can really focus on stepping out in business and focusing more and actually enjoy my life and traveling and doing all those things so yeah I was able to like after like a year into the program my agency was doing about 15k 20km off like residual income

and so I to travel the world and I was just doing the things I really enjoy it and I was able to build a team so that was like a year ago yeah yeah so like yeah timing tell us a little bit about like the transformation that you have been through since the program you know at first

in our last interview we talked about four months in there doing like over 20k recurring closing 10 15k month clients just some 19 year old dropout Punk right now I'm just kidding but but yeah I mean really inspiring stuff so tell us about kind of the full part two of the transformation and you know what yeah you

know not just the business but also like your life was that look good yeah and all that awesome stuff yes sir this past year are pretty much best been like just traveling like non-stop I had many successful moms like some of Wade life or no card bases have been doing around 50,000 dollars a month for my agency

someone like that like yeah some moms have had like 85 K so I've really scaled up heavily and like I just grew up like as a person I just feel way more like just at ease and just way more like comfortable my ability to scale my business and and yeah I'm just really happy about the outcome NASA

yeah awesome been able to do a lot of big things to some clients as well like like I've pretty much to systemize my whole like delivery process to the point where I have a whole team just managing all of that stuff so I can so the things I'm really passionate about so yeah I'm very nothing awesome and

yeah I mean tell us a bit like how how do you kind of operate the business day to day I mean I know you were talking to a bit before you already have people in place so I mean what are you doing kind of inside the business what is your work week look like what does that kind

of look like yes you've implemented and transformed right so right now I mean before I was really doing things that I just didn't really want to deal so much involved in the business I was just doing things like like I was like doing eye tracking with their like analytics and stuff like will the that really just drains

my energy so I got so play by figuring it like I need to hire a team so I thought about like five people working in the company now and they're pretty much is handling all of the stuff that I don't want to do so right now my date today doesn't really involve me doing much things I enjoy

doing right now my main focus is just networking and and just selling in fact I don't really sell much anymore cuz I've built some like sales teams that like actively selling my product so right now I'm in a position where I'm pretty much as chillin and looking for I can you think to work with all right yeah

all right and yeah that's awesome and I mean what do you feel like we're some of the key shifts or like the key systems that have helped you get to this point yeah - how you know help some people listening understand what that looks like and understand how to apply that to their business you know maybe see

if they're fit for the program yeah so one of the biggest things was the mindset section of the course it really started to make me like look into the ways I was thinking and the flaws in my thinking as well so I was able to completely like shift that and and start to focus on things I'll really

tell my business or make my business go to the next level so yeah that's probably one of the biggest things and then the system's yeah like that is probably more of things I was struggling with the most cuz I'm not really a details orientated personal choir I like creative thinker so for me to actually look at the

course and actually have like step by step like knowing what to do it's just like you know no-brainer like I have to do it so yeah awesome sweet so yeah I mean doing about what 50k a month up to 90 km month with you know some launches that kind of stuff you're not spending too much time the

business is pretty much running without you right you're having an awesome time in LA traveling the world 20 years old dropped out of college that's pretty crazy yeah so I mean what's next I mean are you just gonna watch YouTube videos all day or what yeah probably not YouTube videos well okay I see I watch some YouTube

videos but something like that myself sometimes yeah of course yeah yeah so right now makes you go in a course and then launch an info product in like about two months so that's like my next focus it's also going to be like a revenue source for my agency so yeah that's pretty much my nice project okay and

got it so courses coming out you know turn that into another channel to grow the business and I mean what's the vision for for you I mean one your life and then to being your explore media right right what does that look like so I really just want to scale it up to multiple seven figures that's pretty

much just the game plan and then just focus on really building my personal brand so I can just want more info products and yeah I mean that's pretty much what I have behind us right now eventually I might start some kind of econ brand or something but you know I'm just going with the flow right now sir

yeah okay and um so something that a lot of people struggle with is the transition to where you're at from where you are before right you know from day to day getting your hands dirty launching campaigns managing clients communicating a team I mean how how would you like what would you share to help people through that same

transition and you know what what kind of process did you go through mentally to make that transition happen yeah I successfully right yeah I think it's um the biggest thing is just having that mindset to just take action you know like don't be sitting on the fence about it I sat on the fence for like a month

or two to be honest and that's a month or two that I could have actually been skating my business we're really just taking my life to the next level so really sickly I think it's tomorrow just going will in just like you know yeah it's taking action that's pretty much the main thing that I'd have to say

yeah cool and I mean when you were just getting started like did you think you'd be where you're at now and what how do you feel about that good shots I mean if I could meet myself like two years ago out it would be so crazy so um yeah I want to see I don't know I mean

that's answer that question yeah be crazy yeah all right awesome man and uh I mean day to day now I mean how do you feel and like what do you have with you because something that I also struggled with when I was going through the same transition was you know once things are handled and it's kind of

like well the business doesn't really need you as much it's kind of like you just kind of freak out and you think about all these other things it's like oh like you start creating problems that don't exist right because that's what you're used to that's kind of like the mindset you're used to right so I mean how

do you kind of spend your time and like not fall back into that trap of thinking like I have to do everything hmm I mean I don't really want to do everything so I haven't any fell back into that trap to be honest yeah I think once you fought like hide your first employee it comes to a

point where you realize like I don't really need to do with this stuff myself I rap really shifts the whole mentality behind it yeah so yeah nobody started that that's be honest okay well I mean so like how do you find kind of like meaning or purpose in your daily life without having to work all the time

because you know what we're talking about yesterday with Amy right a lot of people hide behind the work and the busyness right of the business yeah and it's like once that's gone what do you do right like how have you kind of handle that um let me think I should can you say that question yeah so how

have you kind of been able to find purpose energy excitement meaning on a daily basis without just doing busy work in your business mmm um I guess that's I guess by keeping things dynamic just always looking to scale the company in a different way or just looking at work ways of diversifying and you know really just looking

for a new yeah you know yeah so I mean what do you do outside of the agency stuff outside of the agency so alright so pretty much just focus on like going to events meet new people traveling yes pretty much mamita snooping watching YouTube videos right yeah awesome alright full and sweet and I mean what would you

say to somebody that's you know leo a little bit ago you know 12 20 months ago that's kind of on the fence they're kind of you know they've got clients they've got they've got you know a business going yeah but they're they know that they are not where they want to be and they're just kind of not

sure on next steps right like right what would you say to somebody like that so what I'd say is that success is inevitable as long as you're willing to you know push yourself as long as you're willing to take action and just re put yourself out there then just know that everything will be okay despite the fact

that you feel like it might be in a difficult situation and you might be struggling right now just know that if you keep going and you keep going and keep going you'll reach your goals yeah and yeah I mean what what made you want to get support from you know working with us you know getting that course

getting weekly coaching and consulting right like what was kind of the point where you decided to that guy I'm gonna I'm gonna get some support with making this happen I guess it was because I didn't really know like was saying yesterday to someone if I remember now there's pulav actually it's like when you're running an agency but

you don't have any guide when you don't have a course or Mentors think about then it's basically like going through a dark forest like you don't really know which way you're going where you're going so what buying the course did for me was almost like a like a flashlight I could actually see in the dark and know

which direction I wanted to go in you know so I think yeah that's pretty much the best way I could describe it don't possum cool and and yeah I mean what what do you feel like because you know obviously there's there's like the old way to run an agency which is just do everything yourself you know hire

more people get more clients spend more money and then there's kind of the new way which is you know what you're running which is have people do it for you automate the delivery automate the business model I mean what would you say outside of business are the benefits of setting up that type of business for you the

benefits of saying a business that is will serve like setting up the business so you're not still doing everything right because a lot of people you know they have successful agencies you know maybe there has been doing millions of dollars per year but the business if they step away for a week you know if they come to

a mastermind like this everything blows up right so I mean what would you say after being on both sides are the benefits in terms of your lifestyle right with that second I mean so you know don't get we world there were still times where I have to check my messages and stuff like that it's not like I'm

just yeah off the face of the planet but the benefits are I can just really just be more present you know really focus on living my life rather than be constantly thinking about what clients have to say or what like what's going on you know like constantly having to check emails and doing all that stuff so I

think is yeah it's just a blessing to be able to have systems and players to have a team to handle that stuff so you can really live your life so yeah alright and and you know agency life is crazy life so give us some share some nightmare stories you don't have to name names unless you want to

all right now I'm just kidding but uh but yeah Sheriff's some like crazy nightmare agency stories that people can relate to so they know that you know we've all been through it behind bed story to me a big I mean back when I first started like I didn't really know what tensa goodness like so there were times

where I kind of like messed up in the delivery this is like like yeah two years ago right yes I like missing deadlines like just not knowing exactly what I'm doing like I remember I was quite a big deal and then I was trying to like figure out what I was doing after I got Chinese yeah I

feel like every agency IRNA has to go through that at some point it's just part of the process so yeah I mean yeah you just gotta embrace those moments and just learn from them and eventually you'll be a point where you're just there free-flowing yeah did you ever think about like oh my god like I don't know

if I can do this yeah there was some stressful time for ya especially because I had many like business partners which I was always jumping from one business partner to the next yeah sure my agency time and the most stressful time was when I decided to just go solo so when I went solo I didn't have anyone

to rely on I didn't have anyone to like talk to you I was kind of just doing my own thing and trying to like figure out so it was difficult man but I'm grateful for it and yeah yeah yeah no I totally get it and like that's fun you mention that because you know when it's on us

to make or break we've got to figure it out or we fail right so and that's another thing that you know we we find especially with in Bali and all over the world you know they're doing like 5 to 10k a month you know they already have clients and they're comfortable right so I mean how have you

been able to not just settle at you know 20 K months and just cuz I mean the 20k month you can you can have an honest a life right so how have you been able to keep pushing the limits and just say that I'm not gonna settle additionally I guess because I find it fun like it comes

to a point way it's just fun for a business like I don't I'm already driven by money anymore like I could be doing like on gk2 and you came off but I already make a difference to how I'm feeling so I'm just doing it right now just for the sake of building my empire and just you know

fun of it all right sweet so so yeah I mean what's next for you you said the course right so yeah tell us a little bit about what's coming up and how we can follow along with your journey and you know maybe work with you guys for anyone yeah so what's coming up are we gonna be yeah
