Sara Wright had spent ten years building SLW Media from a solo operation into a team of six serving luxury home services clients across the US. By every outside measure, she was successful. But inside, she'd hit a ceiling — she didn't know what she didn't know, her team was maxed out, and legacy clients on old pricing were eating into her margins. Some of them had been with her since she opened her doors ten years ago, and she was in the red on a few. It was keeping her up at night.
She'd tried finding help before. Self-study programs, communities, masterminds — none of them stuck. A coach she met in January pushed vision boards and mantras, which wasn't how Sara's brain works. She needed a tactical plan, not motivation. When she connected with Jesse, the difference was immediate — he opened a spreadsheet on their first call and showed her exactly what she needed to hit monthly to reach her goal. That was the moment she knew this was the right fit.
Through the program, Sara and Jesse worked in phases — starting with what's possible, then getting into the details. They fine-tuned her messaging on her website and LinkedIn, which she now uses across everything. They built systems for team efficiency and business development, including strategies for leveraging long-tenured clients to attract more ideal ones. And they tackled the legacy pricing problem head-on — solving the issue that had been keeping her up at night with clients who'd been getting, in her words, the deal of the century.
The transformation went beyond tactics. Sara went from anxious and uncertain to calm and confident — trusting that her systems are working even when she's not. And with that foundation in place, she launched a second agency, Socially Yours, focused on Texas-based luxury brands. You don't start a second business unless the first one can run without you.
Sara describes Jesse as someone who could nail what she was feeling before she could say it herself — the kind of person who opens a spreadsheet, not a vision board, and gives you a tactical plan you can execute even when you're slammed with work, life, and kids.
