This Guy Is Launching 12 Companies In 12 MonthsšŸš€šŸš€

Hey, itā€™s Alex.

Weā€™re pretty late this week, I apologize.

But anyway.

Iā€™m a bit of a cONnOisSEuR of watching videos about people starting businesses.

Idk why, I just canā€™t get enough of them.

And I feel like at this point I have probably seen everything under the sun when it comes to this space.

But after feeling like youā€™ve seen it all..

This guy, Hunter Hammonds, this guy shocked me.

Heā€™s building 12 different online businesses, in 12 months.

Heā€™s launching a new one

Every. Single. Month.

ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦ā€¦..And itā€™s working

So hereā€™s what we are going over today:

  • šŸ§ā€ā™‚ļø How Hunter Hammonds Started This Journey

  • šŸ“ˆ The Companies Heā€™s Started So Far

  • šŸ«µ How You Can You Do Something Similar?

Read Time: 4 minutes 57 seconds

Meet Hunter:

He has started, failed, and restarted multiple businesses over the past 15 years. This isnā€™t exactly a ā€œget rich quickā€ kind of story lol.

He started his first agency when he was just 19 years old.

While building that agency he met a ā€œtechyā€œ friend and they decided to start working on a start-up called ā€œImpulcityā€œ. Which they quickly built to over 3 million users.

According to him, they unfortunately were never able to monetize, so they decided to just sell all the assets.

If you are wondering what the business was, the only thing I was able to find was an old LinkedIn page saying:

ā€œImpulcity is the personalized, daily guide to your city's social life. It's the easiest way to find great local events and all the best bars. Whether you're looking for a concert, amazing nightlife, or something to do with the family, you'll find it on Impulcity.ā€œ

He later got back into the agency game and started an Agency called ā€œEverestā€œ, and he says he built that business to 8 figures in revenue.

They worked with Nike, Samsung, and even Obama lol.

But the problem is that after a while, the more and more the agency grew, the less and less free time Hunter actually had.

After a while, his life just felt like one phone call after another of VPs complaining about things that donā€™t really matter.

He started to hate the business, and after a while, he decided it was time for a break.

The Companies Heā€™s Started So Far:

After taking a break for 6 long months. He got on a call with an old friend ā€œSahil Bloomā€œ. You may have seen him on Twitter.

They started to discuss the idea of partnering with creators to build B2B businesses.

And thatā€™s when he got his crazy idea.

to try to build 12 of them in just 12 months.

Because not only would this be a fun challenge.

But itā€™ll also give him an insanely diverse source of revenue. As well as generating so much cash that they can take insane bets.

And 3 weeks after their initial discussions, their first successful business ā€œKeyframeā€œ

Keyframe is an agency that makes these cute little animations that are literally called ā€œKeyframesā€œ.

Itā€™s mostly marketed for companies or for people who want to build a personal brand.

When they launched Keyframe, they partnered and marketed it with people like @DanKoe.

And the numbers dont lie, if you check out Dan Koeā€™s TikTok page you will see that the entire page is using this style of content. And itā€™s working extremely well.

So what ends up happening is other people following Dan Koe, see his success using this content, and if they want to get brand recognition or just to build a personal brand, theyā€™ll sign up for ā€œKeyframesā€œ to get this style of content.

You might be getting how the business model works now.

  1. They find a creator who has incredible reach.

  2. They partner with the creator to incentivize them to actually WANT to build the company.

  3. They create a productized agency helping people who follow this creator. For this service, they charge a monthly retainer

  4. They have the creator use the agency themselves to prove it works.

  5. Then they get unlimited free marketing from the creator because he is incentivized to build this brand.

  6. With every person who signs up, they build a team of talented people who can provide this service at a lower cost than the monthly retainer.

Itā€™s an incredibly simple, straightforward, and honestly beautiful business model.

With this business model, they have also launchedā€¦..

So How Can You Do Something Similar?

Hunter actually has a very unique perspective on life which I dont think I have ever really heard anyone else say.

You know Rockefeller.

The richest man to ever live.

The guy who probably isnā€™t very ethical.

Hunter studied him and the main takeaway he got from that studying was this.

The reason Rockefeller became the richest man in the world wasnā€™t how smart he was or how lucky he was.

The reason he became the richest man in the world was because he spent his entire life making the game of business unfair for himself.

He made it nearly impossible for himself NOT to succeed.

He was able to create the biggest moat to have ever existed.

After realizing that.

Hunter started reaching out and building his connections as aggressively as he possibly could. As well as showing them his talents and giving them things for free.

Thanks to that, now heā€™s friends with a ton of these creators with insane reach.

Who are WILLING and EXCITED to work with him.

And as soon as he wants to start another agencyā€¦.

All he needs to do is send a text.

So to be able to do the same, start building your unfair advantage now.
