How I got here…

If you’re new to my channel, my name is Adam Enfroy. I’m the founder of https://AdamEnfroy.com, a blog that I launched in 2019. With two VAs, I grew it to $1M/year business in two years. In 2021, I launched this YouTube channel, now a $4M/year business. So in total, I make $5M/year with dead simple content – I’ve never gone viral, I don’t have millions of followers, and I’m not all that interesting.

I created this channel to combat all of the “guru” clickbait on YouTube that promises too much, delivers too little and makes you feel bad by comparison.

My life wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows to get here:

At 22, I got kicked out of college after failing 9 classes. At 24, I got back in and finally graduated (with student loans, an alcohol problem, and a degree I didn’t know how to use lol). For the next two and a half years, I worked at a pizza place making $9/hour. It then took me the next 10 years of turning my life around to get here. If I can pull myself out of that mess, I want to give people hope that they can too. It just doesn’t happen overnight.

FULL DISCLOSURE
I make YouTube videos to make money. I try to condense as much tactical advice as I can into my YouTube videos for free, and you never have to buy anything. However, if you like these videos and want to work with me regularly, I run a community called AI Income Blueprint, which has hundreds of hours of video content, 6 coaches, and live Q and A's every week for a one-time fee.
