Ep 30: How Clark Lost $800K On FB Ads - Building Golden Ratio to 8 figures

Alpha Inbound Season 1 Episode 30

Clark followed the path an eCommerce brand 'should' take.

He built a Shopify site and started running FB ads. About 18 months later and $800K in the hole, he realized he needed a different route to market - the FB glory days were well gone.

Having done over 800 walk-ins to coffee shops in his local area, and coming across the most incredible cold email opportunity from American Express, Clark has since turned his fortunes around and is now on track to becoming an 8 figure brand - which he believes will happen in the next 3 years.
