THE
REAL
PROBLEM.

Sequence is the problem. The right message, in the wrong order, at the wrong moment, kills deals and dries up pipelines. The product is almost never the issue.

People browse intellectually and buy emotionally. Most funnels are built backwards: all logic, no feeling, and a "Buy Now" button three steps too early. That's not a traffic problem. That's an order-of-operations problem.

One of Jake's clients, a Chicagoland landscaping company, went from 3 crews to 9 and from $1.2M to over $10M. Same trucks. Same service. Different sequence.

He's done this for Fortune 500 companies on three continents and founders with $10K budgets. Two exits and $100M in results later, the framework is the same. The bottleneck is the same. The fix is simpler than you expect.

Who Jake Works With

Jake Tlapek

Jake doesn't work with everyone. His method only works when the person across the table is ready to act on what they hear.

The right client is a founder or marketing leader who has a real business, has real revenue (or is close), and is hitting a wall they can't explain. They've tried things. Some worked. Most didn't. They need someone to look at the whole sequence and tell them the truth.

Come ready to hear what's broken. If you want validation for decisions you've already made, Jake isn't the right call.

Jake is everything we hoped for. We saw impressive results in a quicker time frame than expected.

Straight Answers

The questions people ask before they book. Answered the way Jake answers them.

What if I'm pre-revenue?

Book the 30. Pre-revenue means every dollar matters, so don't buy four hours of audit when one sharp question will do. The sequence problems are the same at every size — yours are just cheaper to fix right now.

Do you do the implementation too?

No. Jake diagnoses, sequences, and arms you — or your team, or your agency — with the exact order of operations. If you need hands, he'll tell you which hands to hire. Selling you implementation would make the diagnosis suspect.

Why is there no free discovery call?

Because a "free discovery call" is usually a sales pitch wearing a trench coat. Your first minute with Jake is already work. That's why the prices are on the page.

What should I bring to a session?

Your numbers and your sharpest question. Traffic, conversion rate, close rate, ticket size — whatever you actually have. Jake can find a bottleneck from surprisingly little, but real numbers make it surgical.

What if you can't help me?

Then Jake says so — before the clock starts, if he can see it from your intake. He turns down work where he can't see a path to impact. If the needle doesn't move, was there really value?
