The Level #61
696 Words / 3 min
Here's the real cost of staying stuck.
You're probably thinking, "I can figure this out myself."
That's what most successful creators thought—including me, and Amanda Goetz, who, despite being a four-time CMO found herself stuck in the same cycle.
Until we calculated what "figuring it out" really costs:
❌ Revenue left on the table each month ($10K vs $50K is a $40K monthly difference)
❌ Time lost to trial and error (we cut working hours by 75%)
❌ Opportunities missed while stuck in execution mode
❌ Mental energy drained by constant content creation
"When you're in the do phase all the time, it is so hard to think," Amanda Goetz tells me.
She knows—she was there just six months ago.
Now?
She's building generational wealth while working less.
Turn These Insights Into Action
Amanda G. is not an overnight success story (no success story ever is). Her recurring revenue engine required very systematic and difficult work with our team.
But it's essential work because building recurring revenue in your business is the only way to get unstuck for good.
Why not get started?
You can stop the content hamster wheel with these proven steps:
1. Block "Think Time"
👉 Set aside dedicated strategy time to review what's actually driving revenue, not just creating more content.
Example: Monday 10-12, metrics review and revenue planning only.
2. Clarity Creates Results
👉 Break your revenue goal into specific monthly milestones—no fuzzy targets allowed.
Examples: "$25K MRR by March 31: Launch funnel → Optimize to 5% → Scale ads" and map your income streams (1:1, digital products, group programs)
3. Invest Like It's Your Career
👉 Before any business purchase, calculate the potential return, not just the cost.
Example: A $5K course investment should generate at least $15K in new revenue. Ask: "Will this help me earn or just create more?"
Beyond Revenue: Building Your Legacy
What does true financial freedom look like for you?
Maybe it's:
✔️ Finally buying that house you've been dreaming of
✔️ Creating generational wealth for your family
✔️ Having time to pursue passion projects
✔️ Building multiple revenue streams that don't depend on your daily presence
This isn't just about hitting revenue targets. It's about transforming your entire relationship with your business and time.
"Now I get to think again instead of do," Amanda G says to me.
Her journey proves what's possible—from first-generation college graduate to building generational wealth, while working just 10 hours per week.
