why AI…
After helping tens of thousands of students grow their online businesses through strategic marketing, I realized the one thing 99% of entrepreneurs were missing was…
Simplification
When I started my online coaching business in 2014 after 12 years in the corporate advertising space
(AOL, Yahoo, Vibrant Media, Funny or Die)…
I thought I had all the marketing savvy I needed from my corporate advertising days to run a Facebook Ads business.
Turns out, I didn’t suck too bad at it, either.
My 6th sense for driving traffic through Facebook Ads… well… shall we say, intensity?)
I got my business to 7-figures, but…

It (literally) almost killed me too.
It took me only 4 years to hit a million dollars in revenue and when I finally landed that aspirational 7-figure goal my health, my marriage, and my anxiety was THE WORST it’s ever been.
My spiral into depression & anxiety in the midst of 7-figure “success challenged me to hold up a big old mirror to my business and my priorities.
I simplified and streamlined my business to what made ME happy and never looked back.

Then ChatGPT happened…
When OpenAI released ChatGPT, I knew that running online businesses would never be the same.
We now had a huge opportunity to leverage AI to redefine how we operate everything from fulfillment to sales to marketing to operations.
Now…
I’ve taken my decade’s worth of experience in running a 7-figure online coaching business, while also helping tens of thousands of entrepreneurs around the world scale and streamline their business, and am helping you create an AI-Powered Business.

“The growth that we’ve seen working with Rick is actually a little bit indescribable. It’s the difference between being amateurs and crossing our fingers hoping this online business thing would stick to actually going pro and month-over-month seeing improvements.”

Ashley Shaw
“Rick is someone that is actively trying to make the online space more inclusive and diverse. He really stands by his values and is actively investing in diversity – from the speakers he brings on, new members he’s attracting, and the types of people he has on as podcast guest.”

Gloria Chou
“The results I’ve gotten in my business and increased money coming in the bank has given myself a lot more hope. I came to work with Rick with the goal of increasing my revenue and I did it by about 4 fold.”

Kwadwo Sampany-Kessie
“I learned more in 90 minutes with Rick than I did in more than 2 years on my own. If you are considering working from Rick, go for it. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!”

Travis Albritton
“I *never* in a million years thought we would be where we are today. In August 2021, we made $8k. If someone told me we would do $80k just 12 months later, I would have laughed in their face. Clearly, anything is possible.”

Laura Peters Abalos
“Now I only work 20 hours per week and this summer I took an entire month off and had my best sales month ever. Rick helped me not only hire my team, but to train them and give them ownership. He also helped me see all the different systems and automations that I could create in my business.”

Jamie Sears
“After I started working with Rick, we had our first six-figure launch because of the messaging work I did with him. If someone is considering working with Rick, I would say you should do it. Especially if you are someone who wants to have more time freedom for the things you love to do.”

Keenya Kelly
“I truly feel like a weight has lift been lifted off of my shoulders because I don’t feel like I have to be working 24/7 in order to make something so successful in my business.”
