Common Questions

Freelance videographers, content creators, and agency founders who are serious about building a real content business. Whether you're at zero, doing a few thousand a month, or stuck around the £10k mark trying to break through to the next level — this is for you.

Anyone looking for a quick-fix course, passive income hack, or get-rich-quick template. The mentorship demands real work, real reps with real clients, and a willingness to be coached directly. If you're not ready to apply what you learn, please don't apply.

A course is a one-way recording. This is 1:1 mentorship — direct calls with Yusuf, tailored feedback on your specific clients and content, real-time review of your offers and pricing, and direct introductions where relevant. The format adapts to where you actually are in your business.

No. The mentorship covers everything from closing your very first client through to scaling past £100k/month in revenue. Where you're currently at just shapes which steps we focus on first.

Cohort length, call cadence, and structure are confirmed on your application call. Each spot is built around the mentee's stage and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all timeline.

Pricing is shared on the application call once we've understood your situation, your goals, and whether the mentorship is actually the right fit. We don't publish pricing because the mentorship is application-only and spots are limited.

Click any "Apply Now" button on this page and fill out the short application form. If your application is a fit, you'll be invited to a call with the team to discuss your goals and whether there's a spot for you in the next cohort.
