For CEOs Scaling Past $1M

Why Most Companies Stall
Between $1M and $5M

The playbook that got you to $1M — referrals, word of mouth, the founder doing sales — stops scaling. Growth stalls when there's no system generating qualified leads independent of the founder's personal network.

The fix isn't "more marketing." It's building an integrated revenue system where every dollar spent can be traced to a closed deal — so you know exactly what's working and can scale it with confidence. That's what separates companies that plateau from the ones that break through to $5M and beyond.

The Problem
Why 70% of Marketing Campaigns Fail

You're Paying for Marketing That Can't Prove It Works

One agency for SEO. Another for ads. A freelancer for content. An email platform collecting dust. A CRM that's become a data graveyard.

Everyone reports their own metrics. Nobody can tell you which activities actually drive revenue. After months of fees, you still can't answer: "What did we get for our money?"

"Marketing attribution is broken. Customer journeys are fragmented. Most agencies avoid committing to specific numbers because they can't prove their impact."

The result? You carry all the risk. The agency gets paid regardless. And the gap between what you spend and what you earn stays invisible.

What If Every Marketing Dollar Could Be
Traced to a Closed Deal?

Most agencies sell you services. We build one integrated system where every component connects to your CRM, every touchpoint is tracked, and every dollar is attributed to actual revenue. Not clicks. Not impressions. Revenue closed.

The Attribution Gap

Why Can't You Prove Your Marketing
Is Actually Working?

When your SEO agency, ad buyer, video producer, and web developer all report separately, nobody owns the full picture. Each vendor shows metrics that make their work look good — but nobody can tell you which activity actually generated which closed deal.

That's the fragmentation tax. Companies with integrated attribution are 3x more likely to report above-average growth because they can see the complete journey from first touch to signed contract — and double down on what actually drives revenue.

The System of Things™
Seven Integrated Components. One Revenue Engine.

We Don't Sell Services.
We Build the Machine.

Every component connects to your CRM. Every touchpoint tracked. Every dollar attributed. You own the whole thing in 12 months.

Video Production

Executive-led video that builds trust before your first sales call. Your leadership on camera, creating authority that compounds.

07

CRM & Attribution

The connective tissue. Lead scoring, email sequences, full-funnel attribution from first click to closed deal. The scoreboard that proves it all.

When every component shares one strategy, one CRM, and one scoreboard — the system compounds. That's not a theory. That's $62M in tracked revenue across 218 companies.

How It Works
From Revenue Goal to System You Own

12 Months. Three Phases.
Then It's Yours.

Phase 1

Align & Build Core

Months 1–3

Clarity Sprint™ — We agree on the revenue goal. Align your buyers, offers, and messaging. Core systems get built: website, initial SEO, CRM integration. First results start showing.

Phase 2

Execute & Scale

Months 4–8

Video production fires. Paid channels perform. Attribution gets dialed. Pipeline becomes predictable. You see exactly what's working across every channel in your CRM.

Phase 3

Document & Own

Months 9–12

Full documentation. Team training. System handoff. You own everything — video assets, website, automation, attribution. No ongoing dependency. No retainer trap.

When you stop paying an ad agency, leads stop. When you finish with us, you own the system.

The Real Decision

Should You Hire In-House, Use an Agency,
or Build a System?

Hire a marketing person and you're paying $80K+ for a generalist who still needs tools, budget, and a year to ramp. Use a traditional agency and you're renting work that disappears the moment you stop paying — plus no one can prove which activities actually drove revenue.

A revenue system is the third option. You invest for 12 months, every component connects to your CRM with full attribution, and at the end you own the entire machine — the video assets, the website, the automation, the tracking. No retainer trap. No dependency. A system that keeps generating pipeline whether you're paying an agency or not.

The Filter
This Is Not for Everyone

Built for Companies That Want
Proof, Not Promises

Built For

B2B companies doing $1M–$10M who are ready to scale with a system, not a band-aid

Leadership willing to be on camera — because video-first means your face builds the trust

Companies tired of paying agencies that can't prove ROI — you want every dollar traced to revenue

Teams ready for a 12-month system build — not a quick fix, but a machine you own forever

Not For

Companies looking for a logo redesign and a social calendar — that's not what we do

Anyone who wants "brand awareness" as the primary KPI — we measure revenue, period

Businesses not willing to put leadership on camera — the system requires executive visibility

Companies that want to micromanage creative — we run the system, you run your business

The Seller Who Built the System

Founder & CEO
2001 — The Beginning
Direct Outbound Sales
Started where every great seller starts — door knocking, cold calling, grinding. No automation. No sequences. Just a pitch, a pair of shoes, and the willingness to hear "no" a hundred times a day. This is where the obsession with outbound was born.
2012–2018 — T-Mobile B2B
Top 1% Seller → #1 Sales Team in the Nation
Cold email at scale changed the game. Within a year, Steve became a top 1% seller at T-Mobile. Then built and led the #1 B2B sales team in the entire company — holding that position 16 out of 19 consecutive quarters.
800%+ to quota × 73 of 8 markets top 5 nationally#1 team — 16 of 19 quarters
2018 — Outreach
Enterprise SaaS — Intelligent Automation
Launched into SaaS and hit 398% of fully ramped quota in the first two months. Outreach was the frontier of intelligent automation and personalization — the place where Steve saw the future: sales and marketing as one integrated system, not two disconnected departments.
398% quota — first 2 months
2019–2020 — TIDAL
Founder → M&A Exit
Founded TIDAL, a global Sales Development firm executing cold outreach via LinkedIn DMs, email, and phone for 100+ companies across every industry. Proved the model. After 16 months, TIDAL went through an M&A — Steve exited 6 months later with his sights set on something bigger.

Executive Ghostwriting + Outbound Automation
Three years spent merging the worlds of sales and marketing. Magnetic became an Executive Ghostwriting Powerhouse paired with outbound automation systems.

The era of "brand awareness" as a sufficient metric is over. Businesses aren't just asking for better results — they're demanding proof. Every dollar must justify itself.

AI is changing how buyers research. ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI — prospects use these tools before they ever visit your website. If your content doesn't inform AI's answers, you're invisible.

Companies with strategic planning are 3x more likely to report above-average growth. The ones who build systems now will own their markets. The ones who wait will keep renting tactics that disappear the moment they stop paying.

50 B2B Marketing Questions Answered by Revenue Experts

10 categories. 50 questions. Zero fluff.

01 Revenue Systems & Attribution

An integrated marketing and sales infrastructure where every component — video, website, SEO, ads, CRM — works together and traces to closed deals. One strategy, one CRM, one scoreboard. GRAVITY builds these in 12 months, then hands you the keys. See our packages.

Every touchpoint — ad click, video view, email open, page visit — is tracked from first touch to closed deal. When a deal closes, you know exactly which activity contributed. We've tracked $62M+ in attributed revenue across 218+ companies. See our case studies.

GRAVITY offers three tiers: Foundation ($3K–$5K/month) for $1M–$3M companies, Growth ($5K–$10K/month) for $3M–$10M, and Scale ($10K–$15K/month) for $10M+. Every tier includes video, website, SEO, ads, and attribution. See transparent pricing.

GRAVITY works best with B2B companies doing $1M–$10M in revenue where leadership is willing to be on camera and the team is ready for a 12-month system build. If you're looking for a logo redesign, a social media calendar, or "brand awareness" as a primary KPI, we're not the right partner — we measure revenue closed, not impressions. Book a free strategy call to find out.

The playbook that gets most companies to $1M — referrals, word of mouth, founder-led sales — stops scaling. Growth stalls when there's no system generating qualified leads independent of the founder's personal network. The fix is building an integrated revenue system where every marketing dollar traces to a closed deal so you can scale what works with confidence.

A traditional agency sells you services on a monthly retainer — stop paying, everything stops. A revenue system is built over 12 months with full attribution, then handed off to you. You own the video assets, the website, the automation, and the tracking. No ongoing dependency. No retainer trap.

Website and SEO foundations start showing results in months 1–3. Paid channels and video production compound during months 4–8. By month 9, pipeline is predictable and attribution is dialed. Full system handoff happens at month 12. See real timelines in our case studies.

Hiring a marketing generalist costs $80K+ in salary alone, plus tools, training, and a year to ramp. A traditional agency gives you rented work with no ownership. A revenue system gives you the best of both — expert execution for 12 months, then you own the entire machine and can run it with a smaller internal team.

The fragmentation tax is the hidden cost of using disconnected marketing vendors — one for SEO, another for ads, a freelancer for content. Each reports their own metrics, nobody owns the full picture, and you can't trace any activity to actual revenue. Companies with integrated systems eliminate this tax and typically see 3x better growth outcomes.

Executive-led video builds trust before the first sales call. When your leadership is on camera, prospects feel like they already know you. This compounds over time — a single video series tracked to $334K in attributed revenue for one GRAVITY client. Video is the gravitational center that pulls SEO, ads, and social together.
