Ryan Kulp – Million Dollar Marketer

Why this course?

Most lectures on marketing, sales, and “business” are taught by academics… theorists.

Theorists have never run a company, never raised money, and never had to explain to their boss why they didn’t hit their numbers.

Once I saw a “social media viral strategy” course that looked promising. Before enrolling I researched the instructor… 59 followers on Twitter. What gives?

What makes this course different?

Here’s more about me, your lead instructor.

I believe in giving back and I’ve written 200+ essays on marketing, leadership, and sales.

Here are a few of them:

• How a SQL Query Made us $2,838 in 15 Minutes
• How I got 19,475 emails in 30 Minutes
• Increase Cold Email Conversions with Image Personalization
• The Birthday Reactivation Hack
• Finding Music Market Fit
• How I Learned to Code
• Early Adopters are the New Early Majority
• How I Quintupled my Income in 90 days

My “day job” is growing Fomo and Cross Sell, which generate nearly $2mm in combined annual sales.

In my spare time I run a micro private equity shop, Fork. Between Fomo and Fork I’ve acquired several small businesses in the last year:

• Lobiloo
• Color My Slime
• Conversion Booster
• Built with Shopify
• Refurther
• Cookie Assistant

Even with a full plate of commitments, I still make time for side projects.

Throughout my career I’ve built more than 20 apps, am a 13x maker on Product Hunt, and devised multiple PR stunts to make a point.

Here’s a 13 hour live stream of me building a SaaS app from scratch.

I do whatever it takes to get the job done, even when I’m just complaining about cancelled flights.

And I share these convictions publicly.

Here are 2 presentations I gave recently on marketing and technology.
