What's Included in the 6 Week Workshop:
Week 1
Your Ideal Customer and Offer
January 14th at 12:00 PM EST
Before we can scale a business to seven figures, we have to get crystal clear on who it’s built for. You can’t grow to a million by selling to “everyone”—you grow by serving the right people deeply. In Week 1, we’ll define what a target market really is and how mastering this step unlocks easier marketing, effortless content creation, and predictable revenue. Then we’ll dive into your specific audience, reviewing each participant’s target market and tightening it so your messaging starts working for you, not against you.
Pre-Work: Complete and submit the Target Market PDF before our live call. This ensures we hit the ground running and begin building your scalable foundation on Day 1.
Week 2
Save Money on Your Taxes
January 21st at 12:00 PM EST
This week, we’re bringing in my Managing Director from my accounting firm to walk you through real, practical tax strategies that business owners can actually use. We’ll break down how to structure your business the right way, common mistakes that cost owners tens of thousands in unnecessary taxes, and the levers you can pull to legally keep more of what you earn. The goal is simple: help you understand how smart entity structure and proactive tax planning can create more cash flow, more flexibility, and a stronger foundation for long-term growth.
Week 3
Your Digital Presence
January 28th at 12:00 PM EST
Week 4
Rapidly Scaling with Ad CampaignsÂ
February 4th at 12:00 PM EST
Week 4 is where we pour gas on the fire. Ads are one of the fastest ways to scale, so we’ll break down how to use Facebook/Instagram Ads, Google Ads, and Google Local Service Ads to amplify your growth. You’ll learn which platforms work best for your business model, how to design content that actually converts, and we’ll review any current or past ad campaigns you’ve run so you leave with a clear strategy—and a plan to scale faster.
Week 5
Exploding with Email
February 11th at 12:00 PM EST
Week 5 focuses on turning leads into loyal customers through email marketing. You’ll learn how to write emails that actually get opened, build a list of people ready to buy, and create automated sequences that make sales happen even when you’re not working. We’ll break down real examples and review your current email setup so you can start using email as one of your most profitable marketing tools.
Week 6
How to Handle the New Business
February 18th at 12:00 PM EST
Week 6 is all about turning attention into organized growth. We’ll cover how to handle new leads, respond quickly, track conversations, and close sales without letting opportunities slip through the cracks. You’ll learn simple processes you can use to stay consistent, follow up effectively, and keep revenue growing without chaos. We’ll also review how you’re currently handling leads so you can tighten your systems and convert more sales with less effort.
Bonus
Specific Marketing Strategy for Your Business
My goal is to give you every tool you need to scale to $1 million. At the end of our 6 weeks together, you’ll receive a customized marketing plan created by my agency specifically for your business. It will clearly outline what to prioritize, how to grow, and the exact steps to move toward seven figures. You can execute it yourself, hand it off to your internal team, or partner with my marketing agency to help you reach the $1M mark even faster.

Meet Michael Tandarich
From a young age, Michael Tandarich discovered a passion for business when he launched his first lawn-care company in his hometown. That early venture sparked a love for building things from the ground up—both creatively and strategically. As he explored graphic design and branding, he realized it paired perfectly with his drive to scale businesses, ultimately leading him to build a marketing agency he’s successfully led for over a decade.
Through his agency, Michael has helped e-commerce brands scale to multi-million dollars, guided local service companies—from HVAC to landscaping—through operational improvements and rapid growth, and worked directly with industry standouts, including Shark Tank–featured products, TEDx speakers, and Gordon Ramsay’s own sous chef. His creative work has even made its way to Times Square, showcased on the NASDAQ tower.
Michael’s belief that any company can scale when the right systems and marketing are in place led him to purchase a struggling accounting firm—not just to own it, but to prove it. Within the first year, he grew the firm by 50% and is on track to scale it past one million dollars in 2026.
Outside of entrepreneurship, Michael loves cars, time on the lake, and days spent with his wife and four children in Northern Michigan. Whether building companies or building memories, he is driven by the conviction that business should fuel—not steal from—the life you want to live.
