That means you're expecting me to say... something — smart?
Which means I have to put my marketing hat on,
and address all those pressing questions bubbling to the
surface of your prefrontal cortex, like... 🧠
"Who even are you?"
"Why do you have the chutzpa to call yourselves the #1 fastest growing
Facebook community for podcast matching?"
"Why should I book a call with your team?"
"Why didn't Dumbledore just use the time-turner
to stop Voldemort killing Harry in the first place?"
(Wait... I wanna know the answer to that last one as well. 🤷♂️ )
SO... let me put your doubts to rest, the best way I know how: with some good old fashioned proof... to get you to take the next step and book a call.
Ready?
Cheers! ☕️
Here's some recent clients we've helped get booked & generate more leads & sales.
2 Weeks in MFS * 5 Clients enrolled 🌟
"Today is day 14 for me. It's Monday morning, and i'm reflecting on June with the highest revenue since I launched my signature program in September 2023. My highest revenue month since I quit my cushy 6-figure corporate career and freaked my husband right out 😆.
Since investing in MFS, I've enrolled five new clients — six total for June. I realised I love the framework here. It's all about freedom.
I would often get overwhelmed with creating content ahead of time. Now, what I did what was suggested... one email a day. ONE. I can do that."
- Christine Trimpe
7 Clients in her 6-month program 🚀
"It has been an incredible week. I looked back at my stats and since I started I have had:
So far I have 7 for the 6-month program and 9 for the self paced course. Oh no not 9 now it is 12! On the 6-month program my floor price is $2,997 and if they don't need a scholarship it's $4,997."
- Katherine Knight
"We did a healthy five figures in sales shortly after that call."
"I'm somewhere in month two now, but figured this was a good place to post an update. Around Day 8, I had a good conversation one of the group calls with Jamie Atkinson and Chris Toto. After that, I stepped back and made some changes to our model and messaging, and we did a healthy five figures in sales shortly after that call."
I've only missed three daily emails so far, and I got my VA to take over the podcast scheduling process so I can have more time to service customers and write emails. I think this is working!"
- Christian Elliot
HealingUnited.today
Closed 6 Clients in a 30 day sprint (85% close rate)
"So recently, let me see if I can get this correct. Oh gosh, is it 5 out of 6? Yes! 5 out of 6 prospective clients have closed and they're now my new clients. So that is super excited.
And I'm very blessed that in owning my own private therapy practice, I've been able to use a lot of those skills in the way I handle new clients.
The things that Angel and Jamie are teaching, they're absolutely spot on. They're constantly redirecting me back to what works, because I get over here in the weeds on something and they're like "Hey Dana, go back to doing what works."

Small-Town Author 🎙️
" My journey into the world of podcasts began when my mentor advised me to appear on 50 shows. Naively, I mass-emailed dozens of podcasts. The result? Silence. Realizing I needed help, I researched podcast experts, which led me to Media Firestorm.
I conduct hours and days of research as a nonfiction author. Easiest research I ever did.
Media Firestorm is light-years ahead of their competition.
I set a modest goal: secure two podcast appearances per week by sending ten emails daily. While I have not met the email target, the results have far exceeded my expectations:
In short, my visibility is skyrocketing. With my book launch set for October 4, I'm on track to reach one million views before it is even for sale on Amazon.

🤔 But... who cares if these folks got results, right?
I'd much rather you just click here to see for yourself what all the fuss is about. (Then we can give you a specific game plan.)
👇
... no?
Social proof isn't really your jam, huh?
That's okay. I've got plenty more in my copywriting bag o' tricks. 😅
I'm doing this new thing most marketers have never tried before.
It's called stating the facts and telling the truth. 🤔
Radical... I know. 😂
(I don't think I've seen many other businesses out there doing this.)
So... Let's move on to some of the truth-telling and fact-stating portion of the page... shall we?
At the top of this page we shared some results we'd gotten with
opt-ins, booked calls & closed deals.
💡 Me and Angel are big fans of transparency. And I'm a bit of a data geek. 🤓
(So... let me share with you some juicy, juicy proof with the exact data and screenshots of our results.)
Our Lead System that generated us 11,754* email addresses in 2024 (76% opt-in rate)
Our lead system is made up of two parts:
A compounding community lead magnet
Consistent weekly podcast interviews
In Sep 2022, our Need a Guest group had 10,000 members. By 20th December 2024 we had grown this one group we own to over 40,000 members. With an average of 76% of members giving us their email address and 30% giving us their phone numbers.
👇👇👇
That's over 30,000 members in a few years...
but let's just look at the numbers for 2024 shall we?
Our 1st Jan to 31st Dec 2024
Leads Breakdown
The Raw Numbers
11,754 unique new email addresses added in 2024
12,127 New Need a Guest FB Group Members (Grew from 28,000 members to 40,127 members)
9,274 Need a Guest Email Addresses (76.4% of the 12,127 new group members gave us their email address, we also collected 3,800+ phone numbers)
2,109 New 'The Podcast Network' FB Group Members (Grew from 28,407 members to 30,516 members)
1,013 Podcast Network Email Addresses (48% of the 2,109 new group members gave us their email address — we don't promote this group with podcast interviews.)
1,467 other leads came in through miscellaneous sources (e.g. joining our directory)
Breaking Down The Numbers With Proof
We collected 9,274 email addresses (76.4% Opt-In) from
Need a Guest's 12,127 new members in 2024
💡 Need a Guest was the only lead magnet we promoted with podcast guesting in 2024.
This is why we collected around 8,000 more leads than our other 'The Podcast Network' Facebook group.
We collected 1,013 email addresses (48% Opt-In) from
our second group The Podcast Network In 2024
💡 The Podcast Network is similar in size to Need a Guest with 30,000+ members.
BUT it generated all of these 1,000+ leads passively as we didn't promote it with podcast guesting in 2024.
Overall List Growth + Unsubscribes
We had our email list grow by 70.49% in 2024
growing from 7,682 to 13,404 active contacts.
Overall list growth of 70.49% in 12 months (growing from 7,862 to 13,404 active contacts)
💡 The Podcast Network is similar in size to Need a Guest with 30,000+ members.
BUT it generated all of these 1,000+ leads passively as we didn't promote it with podcast guesting in 2024.
Of course it's not all rainbows 🌈
and glitter ✨
🙃
We also had 6,212 total unsubscribes (31.6% active users)
(across the 11,754 new contacts + 7,682 existing contacts)
💡 Any good email marketer worth their salt will tell you not to worry about unsubscribers.
Getting upset about unsubscribes gives the same energy as getting upset about 30% of the customers who walk into your store look around, and walk right back out again.
(You wouldn't close your store because 1/3 of customers walk out.)
I'm sharing this just for transparency, because even though we added a bunch of new contacts, we also had 31.6% of subscribers churn through our emails.
...but their might be a pot of gold
at the end of that rainbow 🌈💰
because...
Out of our total 13,404 active subscribers,
we had 2,994 unique leads who clicked to book a call in 2024.
(22.3% total clickthrough rate)
💡 In the next section, I'll show you how those 2,994 link clicks turned into
1,300+ sales calls with over 900 showed up live calls.

generating leads...
Let's take a peak at some of the results we've gotten turning those leads into booked sales calls.
Our simple 20-minute/day email system
that booked us 933* showed up sales calls in 2024 (77/mo on average)
🚨 Including our proven automations & flows
In our business we don't post on Facebook, Tik-Tok, Instagram or Linked-In.
(I quit social media for my business in 2022).
We only do two things:
1️⃣ We get booked on podcasts (to generate leads)
2️⃣ We send emails (to book sales calls)
Our email system is made up of three components:
Proven yet simple automations & flows (that sweep up 'would-have-been-missed' sales)
Simple 250-300 word daily story based emails that we write in under 20 minutes (that build rapport and a bond with readers & advertising our solution every day.)
Powerful cash-generating promotions we run every 90 days (to create a windfall of cash... we'll share more on these promotions in #3 on this page below.)
And even though we "only" send emails
the results speak for themselves. 😎
July 1st 2023 to Dec 31st 2023 (our first 6 months in this new business)
We booked 319 sales calls, 204 of those calls showed up with 51 customers enrolling in that first 6 months of our business.
Jan 1st 2024 to Dec 31st 2024:
In 2024 we were able to increase our booked calls by 224% (pretty dramatic). For the year, we booked over 1,600+ calls, with 933+ showed up live calls.
Most businesses we speak to who aren't making
as many sales as they like usually have one of two problems:
💡AKA — we’re not following up with the leads we’ve already generating in the business.
If we just:
#1: Follow-up with our existing leads in our business
#2: Also follow-up with the new leads coming into the business
#3: We do those 2 things every single day...
...then our business is significantly more likely grow.
We’ve often found in our business that fancy fails and simple scales.
It’s the simple fundamentals that create success.
Now... Lemme break down our booked sales calls numbers that came from our email efforts in 2024. 😎📊
(and show you some proof)
Our 1st Jan to 31st Dec 2024
Booked Call Breakdown
The Raw Numbers
1,621 booked calls in the calendar for 2024
2,994 unique leads clicked through from email to book a call in 2024. (From our list of 13,000+ this was about a 22% total clickthrough rate for the year.)
1,621 booked calls in the calendar for 2024 (54% of the leads who came from email ended up booking in on the calendar showing high intent.)
133 booked calls per month on average
933 showed up live calls — (Our show rate averaged out to 58% across the year.)
77 showed up live calls per month on average
58% Average Show-Up Rate Across 2024 — (We struggled in the first Quarter and then finally cracked show-up rates in Q4.)
Q1 Show Up Rate = 36% 🤕
Q2 Show Up Rate = 59% 😀
Q3 Show Up Rate = 60% 😀
Q4 Show Up Rate = 70% 🥳
Breaking Down The Numbers With Proof
2,994 unique leads clicked through from email to book a call in 2024.
(From our list of 13k+ this was a 22% clickthrough rate for the year.)
💡 Over 54% of these leads which clicked ended up booking a call.
📊 31.1% of these leads who clicked ended up live on the call.
(we worked to improve our show rate throughout the year.)
1,621 booked calls in the calendar for 2024 with
933 of those calls showing up live 🥳
Another BIG area we improved on for ourselves
& our clients this year was show-up rates. 🥲
💡 Fun fact: if we'd have maintained a 70% show rate throughout the year...
We'd have taken an extra 200 live sales calls...
(We missed out on an extra 50+ deals across the year just from show rates.)
In Media Firestorm we'll show you how we're now maintaining high show-rates at 70-80%. 📈
Going from 58% to 70% show up rate would be the same as
increasing your close rate from 33% to 40% in closed deals.
(which sounds easier?)
👋 ...pretty sweet right? By now you MUST be a little curious about how much MORE money you could be making from your email list, if you just had a simple easy way to send them more emails.
Our 'Quarterly Cash Playbooks' that added an average of $49,553.25*
in additional revenue per quarter in 2024

Our 'Quarterly Cash Playbooks' that added an average of $49,553.25*

We only do two things:

2️⃣ We send emails (to book sales calls)
If you want the rare ability to — on demand! — write email campaigns so powerful they can bring in a months worth of revenue in just a few days...
Then keep reading.
That's why cash-playbooks that DON'T require you to use
social media are a game changer. 😎
Same results with WAY less of the hassle...
and (crucially) pants are optional. 👖
Alright... let's get to the bit where I
show you the results & proof.
🙃
The 4 MINI + 1 GIANT Cash Playbook
We Ran In 2024
Promo #1: Black Friday Promotion 2024 — 7 day promotion
$97,388.75 in net sales generated from 7 days of promotions.
(We booked the calls in 7 days, some of them were taken 3-4 days later.)
💡 The promotion ran from Nov 24th to Nov 28th + Dec 3rd to Dec 6th.
(We broke up the emails being sent into a 4 day and 3 day promo separately.)
📊 We generated $97,388.75 in net sales in this time period.
(I always advocate for doing a Black Friday promotion.
It's the one time of year everyone knows they're getting the best deal.)
Promo #2: Run-Up To Christmas Mini Promo 2024 — 4 day promotion
$29,030.10 in net sales generated from 4 days of promotions.
(The deals were closed over a 7 day time period.)
💡 The promotion ran from Dec 11th To Dec 18th 2024.
(We broke up the emails over a 4 day promotion.)
💭 Even just a few weeks after doing a big black friday promotion...
we were able to do an EOY cash playbook to finish December strong.
(December is a month most people think is low in sales, but that doesn't need to be the case.)
Promo #3: 100 Bookings Promo — May 28th to May 31st — 4 day promotion
$27,212.50 in net sales generated from 4 days of promotions.
(The deals were closed over one week)
💡 The promotion ran for from May 28th 19th To July 24th 2024.
(We broke up the emails over a 7 day promotion.)
💭 We did a flash promotion for Angel's birthday. We didn't plan this one very heavily.
Promo 4+5: Jamie & Angel's Birthday Sales (Jan 8th to Jan 9th) + (July 19th to 24th)
$22,240 in net sales generated from Jamie's Bday 32 hour promotion +
$22,342.17 in net sales generated from the 5 day promotion
Both brought in $44,582.17
💡 I didn't have the Stripe data for this one, but I thought I'd share the breakdown of sales!
(Both these promotions were fairly short but performed well! )
Overall these cash-generating promotions gave a
big burst of sales from very low levels of effort.
Bringing in $198,233 in 12 months,
or an average of $49,553.25* per quarter.
Obviously these results are NOT guaranteed or even typical.
But they show you what we've achieved implementing the very systems we help our clients to use.
But it shows you what is possible when you have a good list and a good offer... and throw our cash-generating playbooks on the fire.
If you'd like to see if working together makes sense...
You can see if you qualify down below.
We know seeing is believing. So here's some more proof of how it feels like working with us.
🤔 But... who cares if these folks got results, right?
I'd much rather you just click here to see for yourself what all the fuss is about. (Then we can give you a specific game plan.)
