Your current situation
You have:
🎢 Inconsistent Clients – Some months are great, others are dry. You feel like you have to chase clients. You lack a predictable way to attract clients and clients don't stay for long.
🤔 Unclear Offer & Pricing – You're undercharging, maybe even still charging hourly, and you don't feel confident in your offer. It isn't clear how your offers link together.
🗣️ Ineffective Marketing – You've tried lots of different tactics, but nothing feels right. You post on social media but get few leads. You don't know where your clients "are".
😬 Sales Hesitation – You don't want to feel pushy on sales calls and selling feels awkward. You struggle when people have objections, and you rarely follow up on leads.
🤹♂️ Overwork & No Systems – You work hard but it feels like you're going nowhere. You have few or no processes for things like following up on leads or onboarding clients.
🌀 Feeling Stuck – You feel overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice online. You need a clear and proven roadmap to a $10k per month business.

Denis starting out with me, in Canada 🇨🇦
Denis and his family can now work and travel anywhere whenever they want.
Lifetime dream achieved ✅
Switzerland 🇨🇭
Meet Denis. When we started working together on March 22nd 2021, Denis was unemployed and on welfare. He had left a stressful job and felt lost. He was considering going back to study and wanted to start a side business in the few months before enrollment to save up enough money to put him through his studies. Denis had tried to be self employed twice before, but neither business had worked.
We started by identifying his current position, target audience, and his strengths. We aimed to achieve maximum money with minimum stress. We knew that Denis had no need for a social media presence or even a website at the beginning, we reserved the names but left them to deal with in the future. For now, we had money to make.
After overhauling his offers and systems, we grew Denis' client base via platforms - specifically Reedsy - and word of mouth while working on retaining our customers and improving customer lifetime value.
By August 26th 2021, Denis was on track to make $182,000.
Things went so well he decided not to go back to study and instead decided to focus his time on the business. He had wanted to study in order to get a well paid job, but he was already earning far more than he ever could in his target career and had much more freedom.
Now Denis works less than 20 hours per week and consistently makes solid 6 figures. With WeekendPublisher, Denis gets paid for his value and not just his time. We built a rockstar team from scratch who handles much of the work and assists Denis with the day to day, freeing Denis to work on the truly valuable stuff when he wants and with who he wants.
Denis' clients now include dotcom billionaires, celebrities, and New York Times Bestselling authors such as DJ Molles.

Hi, I'm John
Service Business Expert
Me in Valencia 🇪🇸. Living and working remotely. Wealthy, happy, free 🕊️
I have been where you are. Starting a business is HARD.
There is so much conflicting advice out there - like "you should message people on LinkedIn every day" vs "cold messaging is a waste of time". Who should you listen to?
Many years ago when I set up my first proper business I tried to save money by doing it on my own and made loads of mistakes - I spent weeks on my branding, I rarely followed up on leads, I never outright asked for referrals, I posted on all social media. It was a mess.
I was working my ass off but getting nowhere. Almost all of my time was spent working IN the business. It sucked! I was doing the job of 5 people without any of the time off. AND I made hardly any money!
Eventually after years of trial and error I found the strategies that actually work. I went on to win multiple awards for my businesses and people started asking me for advice.
Now, I travel the world and work around 15 hours per week.
I strongly believe that nobody needs to work more than 20 hours per week. I have helped hundreds of people from countless different kinds of businesses and countries achieve a 20 hour workweek and I can help you to do it too. Let me show you how to do it too.
Let me show you how to Start Smart

FAQs
How is it possible that I can work less and make more money?
The reason you have no time is the same reason that stops you from making more money - your systems suck. You are almost certainly spending a lot of time doing low value tasks that make no real difference. Getting the right systems in place reduces the amount of time you need to spend while also making it easier (and better) for customers to work with you. My strategies increase overall efficiency, bringing you both time and money. Within 3 months my average client goes from 60 hour weeks to 20 hour weeks and almost doubles profits. This is all thanks to implementing my effective systems and focusing your time on the things that actually make a difference.
Will this work for my business?
Yes, it will work for you. No existing audience needed, and no budget beyond my payment required to get started. I have success stories from almost every industry imaginable - from cleaning companies to IFAs, Etsy sellers to coconut product wholesalers, and from coaches to car-repair garages. This will work for you.
How will you help me - what is your style?
I offer a very practical, action-focused, 'blended coaching' approach. I will help you to identify answers yourself and learn how to fix the problem yourself so you don't need me long term, and in the short term I offer direct guidance and step-by-step action plans so you know exactly what you need to do next and how to do it Sessions will be conversational and relaxed. You are talking to somebody who is on your side, a supportive friend. Behind the scenes, I am a science and data driven. I will look into the numbers for you and provide expert insight while helping you to understand the underlying reasons why everything happens
What time are calls?
Most of my clients are in North America and Europe but I have had clients on six continents. No matter your location, I’m here to help you. We usually have calls twice per month, but you can book as often as you like - there is no limit. Usually we speak in the morning according to your time zone and the calls usually last 60 minutes - however, the call length and times can be adapted to suit your needs. I always work directly with you to find a time that will work for us both on a regular basis. You can see my generally available times here: https://calendly.com/johnjdmunn
I'm looking for practical information I can use immediately - will I get that?
Yes, you get a step-by-step action plan after every call. Everything we cover is practical and action focused. You will know exactly what you need to do next and how to do it
I don't have enough time already...how do I find time for coaching?
- We immediately start eliminating lesser priority activities from your schedule so that you open up more time to invest in the activities that make a real difference. - I don't give any tasks without a specific reason. Everything you learn is directly applicable to getting the job done - making you feel more peaceful, confident, and accomplished.
This may be a
business expense
All of my clients have been able to "write off" their work with me as an expense on their taxes (it usually counts as training). Always consult with your accountant, but my team is happy to assist you with this process and provide documentation.

[After working with John] I really have the strong feeling I could close my eyes and say to my team "just go for it". My team now handles everything.
Now even when I check my email it is really relaxing. Everything is answered correctly already, when I wake up everything is already done
