In 2018, two ambitious high school seniors, Marques Pizarro, and Dylan Kostadinov, embarked on a journey that would lead to the creation of PK Media, a highly successful social media marketing agency. Today, PK Media boasts a monthly revenue of $20K, and its founders are eager to share their story and knowledge with other aspiring entrepreneurs.
The dynamic duo met through a business club, DECA, where they collaborated on various projects and tasks. It was Dylan who approached Marques with the idea of starting an SMMA, and they haven’t looked back since. With five years of experience under their belt, Marques and Dylan grew their agency to new heights by relying on their expertise in cold outreach, specifically through Instagram direct messages. Now, they are on a mission to help other agencies do the same.
Initially, the goal of starting an agency was purely profit-driven. However, that perspective quickly changed when Marques and Dylan witnessed the impact of their service on other businesses, and lives positively transformed because of their skills. With a growing team of over 45 members and virtual assistants from the Philippines, PK Media has been instrumental in helping over 25 agencies scale their businesses.
Marques and Dylan’s journey to success was not without challenges. They faced numerous obstacles, including countless objections, no-shows, ghosted messages, and advertising accounts shut down or permanently banned. These setbacks could have easily been a reason to quit, but Marques and Dylan persisted. They remained proactive with clients and marketing, always staying on the offensive. Their resilience not only enabled them to overcome these challenges but also allowed them to coach other agencies facing similar issues.
What sets Marques and Dylan apart from others in their industry is their firsthand experience as agency owners. Their system and methods were developed specifically for agency owners, by agency owners. Furthermore, their connections with high-level marketing coaches and business owners, such as notable mentor Joel Kaplan, co-founder of Agency Lab, helped them refine their innovative and proven strategies for scaling businesses. Marques serves as the community manager and cold outreach coach for Agency Lab, teaching hundreds of business owners how to grow and scale their ventures.
Despite early struggles to generate $2-3K/month in revenue between 2018 and 2020, Marques and Dylan continued to persevere. They eventually began landing clients and witnessed their business grow exponentially, reaching the impressive milestone of $20K/month in 2022.
With their sights set on becoming the leading brand for agencies looking to grow their businesses organically, Marques and Dylan are committed to providing coaching, mentorship, and expertise to entrepreneurs worldwide. Their accomplishments and the testimonials from satisfied clients, such as Joel Kaplan and Ry Deokinandan, speak volumes about the effectiveness of their methods.
