Attention Agency Owners and Service Providers!

Learn How I Scaled a $20 Million Agency in Just 5 Years

It’s not about getting rich quickly, but it certainly doesn’t have to take forever.

I’ve successfully scaled my repeatable system. Discover How You Too Can Grow Your Agency.

My Amazon Guy was founded in 2018 by Steven Pope in his basement with a single LinkedIn post and a dream. Since then Steven has grown the company into a $20 million dollar agency with more than 500 recurring revenue clients and over 500 employees.

Along the way, he has had to reinvent the company multiple times to be able to keep up with the demand, and unfortunately, there has not been a roadmap on how to grow an agency this large in the Amazon space.

Growing and scaling an agency in the Amazon space is hard.

Growing an Amazon agency can be overwhelming. You have to keep up with the ever-changing Amazon algorithms while also managing a revolving door of clients. You get a new client and are excited.

Then a client emails to say they aren’t happy with the results they’re getting and wants to cancel… how do you keep up with it all? (and keep sanity with your life). Then there are staffing issues and how do you create systems that don’t require you to be involved.

Sellers have an almost infinite stream of content teaching them what to do and how to grow their businesses, but who is there to help you? (especially in this ultra competitive space)

Here’s the good news: You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself.

My Amazon Guy presents Steven Pope’s Journey: From Basement to $20 Million Agency

Founded by Steven Pope in 2018, My Amazon Guy had its beginnings in a basement, propelled by a single LinkedIn post and a visionary dream. Since those modest origins, Steven has skillfully steered the company’s growth, transforming it into a $20 million agency with over 400 recurring revenue clients and a workforce exceeding 400 employees.

Throughout this journey, he undertook multiple transformations of the company to meet the surging demand. Regrettably, there hasn’t been a clearly defined path for nurturing an agency of this scale within the Amazon landscape.

The wisdom he acquired and the strategies he devised are now accessible to aspiring individuals who share the remarkable dream of establishing their own Amazon empire.

Warm Outreach

Steven published a LinkedIn post about how he got his first client. It was for $3,000 a month and happened within 48 hours of the post (April 2, 2018).

This is warm outreach because someone in Steven’s network referred a client.
