For agency owners and freelancers stuck at ₹1-2L a month

Get to your first ₹10L month.

You can sell. You've been past ₹1L a month for a while now. You just can't get past it. I built the agency that did, from a ₹7,000 client in Patna to clients in four countries, and in one hour I'll show you exactly where yours is capped.

Who is Ashmit?

Why you should listen to me.

I was stuck at ₹1.5L a month in Patna for longer than I'd like to admit. So I know the ceiling from the inside: the good months that don't repeat, the clients who pay late, the feeling that working harder has stopped working. What got me out wasn't more hours. It was deciding what the agency would charge and who it would serve, then building it that way.

What an issue looks like

Ashmit ShahiMonday, 7:00 am

Alternate Education: your price is a courage decision

Hey,

You can charge more wherever your clients are. The agency just has to be built for it.

That comes down to three things: the client you pick, how you frame the offer, and the proof they see before the call.

This week, rewrite your offer as one sentence that names the result, the timeline and who it's for.

Reply with yours. I read every one.

Best,
Ashmit

Before you apply

The questions people ask first.

My clients are Indian. Does this apply to me?

Yes. The ceiling isn't about rupees versus dollars. It's about the client you pick, how you frame the offer and the proof they see before the call. I built the agency on Indian clients first and only went international after.

I'm not at ₹1L a month yet.

Then the audit isn't built for you yet, and I'd rather say that than take your hour. Watch the podcast, read the letter, and come back when you've crossed it.

What happens on the call? Is there a pitch?

One hour on Google Meet. We find what's capping you and you leave with your next three moves, written down. At the end I'll invite you to the free workshop on 28 November. That's the only ask.

Why is it free right now?

First batch. I'm using these calls to build the workshop around real agencies, not theory. From the next batch the audit is paid.

Find what's capping your agency. Then fix it.

One hour. Free for this batch. You leave with your next three moves.
