A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
Eddie Maalouf

WELCOME TO AGENCY OPERATORS

5 years ago I was running BAD Marketing out of my parents' bedroom in Alpharetta. No team. No systems. Just me, a laptop, and a goal to hit $10K a month.

Today BAD does over $20M a year, employs 200+ people across 6 brands, and I just spent $1M flying 228 founders to Dubai to teach them what we've built.

The difference between then and now wasn't talent. It wasn't luck. It was systems — the same hiring frameworks, the same SOPs, the same client delivery playbooks, the same offer architecture we still use today.

Agency Operators is the exact operating system we use internally. The same documents. The same dashboards. The same protocols. Nothing held back, because honestly we're at the point where we'd rather build more agencies than gatekeep what got us here.

If you're doing $10K–$70K/month and you're serious about installing real systems instead of chasing another tactic, this is for you. If you're not, watch my YouTube — it's free.

CASE STUDIES

GROWTHLAB
Case Study 01

GROWTHLAB

Background

Plateaued at $30K MRR for 18 months with a team of 4. Founder was the bottleneck on every account.

Strategy

Installed the AO hiring framework, rebuilt their offer ladder into 3 productized tiers, restructured client delivery into pods.

What we did

Hired 6 A-players in 60 days, deployed SOPs across 4 departments, switched acquisition to outbound + paid hybrid.

Results
  • $30K → $180K MRR in 9 months
  • 6 senior hires onboarded inside 60 days
  • 72% retention lift year over year
FORGE MEDIA
Case Study 02

FORGE MEDIA

Background

Stuck at $55K/month with 14 clients but only 8% net margin. Owner working 70-hour weeks.

Strategy

Cut their client base in half, raised prices 2.4x on remaining accounts, narrowed ICP to one industry.

What we did

Repositioned the offer around a single deliverable, installed a weekly client review cadence, removed the founder from delivery entirely.

Results
  • $55K → $142K MRR in 6 months
  • 31% net margin up from 8%
  • 0 founder hours on client work by month 5
PINPOINT
Case Study 03

PINPOINT

Background

Two-person team at $22K MRR, 40 active proposals, closing 4%. Pure motion, no system.

Strategy

Killed paid ads, rebuilt outbound from scratch, installed a 2-call sales process with a diagnostic step.

What we did

Tightened ICP to e-commerce $1M–$5M, rewrote the offer in 1 week, hired 1 setter and 1 closer.

Results
  • 4% → 27% close rate on qualified calls
  • $22K → $96K MRR in 7 months
  • 1 setter, 1 closer replacing 2 founders
THE DIAGNOSTIC

DOES THIS DESCRIBE YOU?

What's really happening

Setters are paid on volume, so they book anyone with a pulse. Your closers waste hours on tire-kickers and your pipeline stays full but never converts.

The outcome we install

We install a diagnostic-style booking script and pay setters on show-and-stay rate, not raw bookings. Quality on the calendar doubles inside 30 days.

THE PHILOSOPHY

WHY MOST AGENCIES PLATEAU (AND WHAT ACTUALLY SCALES)

  • Chase the latest tactic from Twitter every week
  • Hire cheap freelancers and hope they self-manage
  • Sell custom scopes to every client who'll pay
  • Run Meta ads before product-market fit is proven
  • Discount aggressively to win price-sensitive deals
  • Confuse motion (busywork) with progress
  • Believe the founder must touch every account

STRAIGHT TALK

WHO THIS IS NOT FOR

Under $10K/month

Go watch my free YouTube content first. Make some real money, then come back. We won't help you faster than your foundations allow.

Looking for tactics, not systems

We don't teach hacks. We install operating systems. If you're hunting for the next funnel trick, this will frustrate both of us.

Want it done for you

This is hands-on coaching. You install the systems with our guidance. If you want an agency for hire, BAD Marketing has a waitlist.

FAQ

QUESTIONS

Agency owners doing $10K–$70K/month who want to install real systems, not chase the next tactic. If you're below $10K, you're not ready. If you're above $250K, you don't need us — call me directly.
