Marker 16: The Fortune 5 Million

While everyone’s chasing the whales, the real builders are catching consistent wins in quieter waters.


Chasing Big Isn’t Always the Win

Most of the market is obsessed with volume, prestige, and headline clients.

But that path is: 
crowded.
political.
noisy.

You get squeezed.
You get ignored.
You get trapped in pricing wars and ATTENTION hell.


Go Where the Work Is Underserved
In the Fortune 5 Million, you can:

  • Build real relationships/ community (our jam)

  • Command fair pricing

  • Deliver better service

  • Actually enjoy the work. No, LOVE the work.


It’s not glamorous.
But it’s good. And it works.
