We become the de-facto marketing department for our clients for less
money a month than they spent on just one print ad (that usually failed
anyway). Truly a real win-win for everyone!
● Our talented business partners - There are too many to mention here
but, there are a few that are paramount to the success of hundreds of
businesses over the years.
We tried to estimate the amount of revenue we generated for our
customers over the past few years. Money that we could point directly
to our tools, resources and coaching as having generated. We came up
with a ballpark number of about $50 million dollars in client revenue
growth.
In 2003, we entered the world of autoresponders with Tom Kulzer and
Sean Cohen. Back then, the concept of drip marketing and
autoresponders was just starting to make their way into the business

create the backbone for our proprietary AutoPilot Solutions drip
marketing system. It was truly leading edge and one of a kind.
We also have to thank one of our key developers in the website world.

Hickman was one of our main players for us in this area. At one time,
we ran 90% of all our client sites through Keith’s site builder system at
Houston’s Host. Simplicity and ease of use was the key. Keith provided
the best solutions and support in the industry.
One of our favorite developers we used over the years was Rob Page of

beautiful but also very advanced to incorporate our technologies. His
