What we build

Whatever shape your offer needs. Six funnel types, built and run for you — not handed over as a template.

$7–$47 front end

Low-Ticket Funnels

A cheap front end with order bumps and upsells behind it, built so cold traffic pays for itself and the back end is where you actually earn.

  • Bumps, OTOs and downsells
  • Structured to liquidate ad spend
  • Built for cold traffic
Free + shipping

Book Funnels

A book or guide as the way in. The cheapest way there is to buy a buyer, and the warmest list you will ever build.

  • Free + shipping or low ticket
  • Upsell path behind it
  • Buyers, not subscribers
Diagnostic

Quiz Funnels

A short diagnostic that tells someone what their problem is, then sells them the answer. Works when people do not yet know what they need.

  • Segments as it sells
  • Personalised result page
  • Higher opt-in than a plain page
$2k and up

Book-A-Call Funnels

Long-form letter, an application that filters, and a calendar. For anything too expensive to sell without a conversation.

  • Application that screens
  • Show-up and no-show sequences
  • Pre-call brief so you close
$997–$5k

Webinar Funnels

An automated presentation that does the selling, with the registration, reminder and replay sequences around it.

  • Runs without you on the call
  • Reminder and replay emails
  • Built for mid-ticket
Local business

Websites

Built around the phone ringing rather than looking pretty. Your number on every screen and a bot that answers when you cannot.

  • Live in days, not months
  • Built to be found on Google
  • AI answers at 11pm

Here’s how it works

Three steps between where you are now and work coming in without you chasing it.

1
This week

We look at what you have now

Your site, where your work comes from today, and what one job is actually worth to you. I tell you straight whether I can move the number — before you pay me anything.

2
Days, not months

We build it and switch it on

The site goes live first. Your outreach domains start warming in the background, and the bots that answer your site and your missed calls get installed while that happens.

3
Every month after

It runs, and you get the work

Outreach sends under your name daily. Enquiries land in one place. Once a month I send you what came in, what changed, and what I am doing next — in plain English.

Here’s a few case studies

Real businesses, real numbers, and the exact structure behind each one.

Theo Gilardo

Bonjour — my name is Theo Gilardo

French, from Paris, living in Amsterdam. Business owner, full-stack marketer and offer publisher. I build the systems that bring the work in, and I run them for you.

Over The Last 3+ Years I Have Stacked Wins Across 50+ Low-Ticket Funnels That Generated $6M+ In Sales For My Clients On Cold Traffic

Made several 5-figure and 6-figure launches ($40k+, $120k+, $210k+, $300k+…). Funnels built, launched and scaled across Back Pain, Self-Development, Weight Loss, Menopause, Pelvic Floor Health, Capital Raising, Commercial Real Estate, Biz-op, Trading, Career Development, College Counselling — and all the niches you can imagine.

Been Praised By Alen Sultanic — One Of The Best Direct Response Marketers In The World

Alen Sultanic, creator of the AC Model — the low-ticket offer structure behind $1B+ in sales — and founder of NHB, the biggest direct response mastermind in the world.

And Some Of The Best Marketers, Offer Owners, Coaches, Copywriters & Media Buyers In The Game…

Funnel builders, copywriters and 7- and 8-figure offer owners — the people who see hundreds of funnels a year — sending others my way when someone asks who actually knows this stuff.

I Have Helped 73+ People On Consulting Calls Just Like The One On This Page…

Discovery calls, 1-on-1s, fast-starts and hour-long consults — 73 of them booked since February 2023, every single one about growing an offer.

And Even Grown A YouTube Channel On It…

Frameworks, breakdowns and real numbers from my own offers — the dual downsell, the hybrid call upsell, the super-bonus framework that doubled an upsell take rate. youtube.com/@TheoGilardo

Questions you might have

What exactly do you do?

I build and run the marketing: the website, the outreach that fills your pipeline, and the AI that answers when you cannot. You keep running your business.

How long does it take?

A site is live in days, not months. Outreach takes about 2 weeks to warm properly before it starts sending under your name.

Do I have to learn a dashboard?

No. That is the whole point. You get the results; I run the machinery.

What does it cost?

It depends on what you need, and I will tell you honestly on the call whether it is worth it. Send me a line about your business and I will give you a straight answer.

Who do you work with?

Business owners who already have something that works and want more of it. If you have no offer and no customers yet, I will say so rather than take your money.

Tell me what you are trying to grow

Send a line about your business and what is not working. I will tell you straight whether I can help.
