He bumped us up overnight to 80 bookings a week.
At our low I had driven the business down to only maybe 20 bookings a week, and that was killing the business.

We were on the verge of collapse. Last week we booked 61 sessions.
Our schedule was empty. Our lead cost was too high. Our technology was a mess. We’re actually open again.

I wish I had hired him sooner.

I spend $25-30k a month on ads. I’m careful who I choose.
