i'm Cem.
based in london.
built puzzleinbox and scaled my agency beyond $3m ARR.
now building glasa,io and exploring the AI training data market.
looking to connect with
founders
marketers
indie hackers
people building unusual internet businesses
what are you working on?
scaling to $50-100 k a month is not hard.
the hard part it retaining and going passed that.
especially if you are running an agency the challenge will be retation.
we are looking for corpus data that includes organizational workflows.
some:
- CRM
- email
- Google chat
- any other sources of internal communication.
should have 30+ employees latin American and English speaking countries (India, Nigeria, U.S., Malesia, UK, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan, Canada).
shoot me a dm if you have this type of data.
x is one of the best places to meet with.
i have met with great investors, founders, engineers.
i try to meet with 5-10 new people every single week through having calls with them.
i would recommend everyone to do the same.
building an agency is the best way to reach $10k a month.
you can go and start an agency today and charge someone $2k tomorrow.
If you are under 5,000 followers.
Leave a comment.
I was there not long ago.
Promise it’s worth the grind.
Keep going.
$0 to $50k/m is extremely easy.
Focus on these:
lead gen
cold email sent through glasa,io
Google and Outlook inboxes
lists built by niche and city
Sales
every positive reply gets a Google Meet within a day
close at 25%+
Onboarding
automate everything that doesn’t need a human
Fulfillment
keep it month to month so you’re forced to deliver
It’s that simple.
i sent my first cold email in 2023.
at the time i was running my agency and had only 3 clients.
and in 4 years i worked with over 500 clients and reached over $3m in ARR.
i failed at 5 different businesses before making one work.
its hard.
I know a guy doing $10m/year
sells to local businesses
with 6 employees
and absolutely nobody on X knows who he is
glasa reached $350k arr in under 60 days.
i also seriously considered shutting it down.
i don't really know how to fit both of those things into an inspirational founder post.
honest agency P&L at $20k/mo:
$20,000 in
$4,000 contractors
$1,500 tools
$800 lead data
$2,000 ads you shouldn't be running
$3,000 taxes you forgot
= $8,700
not $20 k. never was $20k
things AI labs are paying companies for right now
old slack and teams chats
email threads
CRM notes with the names stripped out
jira tickets and SOPs
code repos
figma files
dm me if you have these :)
data brokering is 10x harder than you think.
everyone is faking their numbers
collecting the data is one of the easiest parts
the hard part is selling to the labs directly
dont get fooled by people claiming extreme numbers
If anyone has organizational data including customer interactions, sales communications, customer support in these countries.
Latin America (Portuguese, Brazil, Colombia, Argentina Chile)
UK
Australia
New Zealand
U.S.
DM me.
every time I open X someone has gone from $0 to $100M ARR in 8 months.
do you guys actually believe thats true :)
don’t be fooled
