What is THE BEST SMMA / Social Media Marketing Agency Course Available?
Hey, thanks for stopping by — before you read any further, if at any time during the reading of this article you get tired of me waxing poetic on my opinions feel free to go check out this article on a popular course review site that agrees with me 💯
I have personally invested over $20,000 in courses and skills in the last few months. I am obsessed with continuing education and learning from other’s that know things that I do not and that can save me time.
The key to getting an edge is to find shortcuts — and there is no better way short-cut than by learning from someone who has done it before.
If you haven’t read any of my content or checked me out on Instagram or seen our YouTube channel — here is a little bit about me. 5 years ago I bought a course on SMMA / Social Media Marketing from a well-known guru — You can read my review and thoughts on that course right here on Medium.
Long story short, we found this course to be hugely incomplete. It gave us the idea to start our own agency and did indeed lead us down a successful path of entrepreneurship — but 95% of that was due to our unending work ethic and refusal to quit. Needless to say, we self-educated through screwing a lot of stuff up and learning a lot from YouTube.
It took us WAY longer than it should have to hit the numbers that we hit ($500k in annual revenue this year). And had that course been more complete, it would have saved us a lot of heartaches as well.
So, a few years after that course released, we were having a lot of success.. Like an insane amount of success. We also had started an SMMA Facebook group that had ballooned to almost 4,000 members. Seeing as we were the admins, we were fielding an insane amount of the same exact questions, like REALLY simple things like:
- Do I need an LLC?
- What services do I provide…
- What do I charge my clients..
…and so on…
Then, I later come to find out that these people were actually not only buying the course I had bought, but all the other courses that had come after it..
Now imagine my frustration when I realized that I was basically doing someone else’s job — Educating their students on simple topics that they should have.
Not only that, I realized that a lot of these folks had a few clients and then well all in on their course businesses — they weren’t even running successful agencies!
Sorry for the rant, and I don’t mean to point any fingers — but this led me to do what any rational person running an agency working with 30+ clients trying to mentor people on the internet would do..
I bought all of these courses to see for myself.. and I didn’t like what I found. Some were better than others, don’t get me wrong — but I couldn’t find one that told me anything that I didn’t already know — and that was complete enough to be the last course that you would ever have to buy.
At that point, I and my business partner had had it. We had put together all kinds of training and YouTube videos already and were tired of answering the same questions — so we set out to change that.
So we created our own course.
We spent over 12 months putting together The SMMA Blueprint — shooting over 70+ videos (and counting, the world, and industries change all the time fam) — that is the most exhaustive and complete course available.
Check out what one of our students had to say:

Needless to say, I think that we can rest assured that we achieved our goal of being the last course that our students will have to buy.. and we are damn proud of it.
