Stuck in a cycle of inconsistency

Vince was juggling church work, family life, and a building his business with inconsistent bookings, unreliable lead flow, and self-taught marketing efforts that led to more questions than results.

Lack of knowledge around paid advertising

He knew ads were the answer but didn’t know how to run them effectively. Every step felt like guesswork. He felt stuck.

Growing the business with purpose & peace

The Problem:

The Problem:

Vince knew he wanted to take wedding photography full time - but had no roadmap to do it.


He tried The Knot. He fumbled through DIY Facebook ads. He even considered staying in church work for another five years while slowly figuring it out. But deep down, he was ready for more.


"I didn't want to wait a decade to live the life I wanted. I knew there was a faster path. I just needed someone to show me."


And that decision came with risk. He invested out of his emergency fund, not because he had excess cash lying around, but because he believed in the outcome.


"Even if I broke even, it would have been worth it. But I didn’t just break even. I built a business."

Laying the Right Foundation

Laying the Right Foundation

Vince joined hoping to learn ads but quickly realized the deeper work came first. He rewired his mindset and stepped into the identity of a confident CEO.


"The mindset modules changed my life. I didn’t just learn how to run a business. I became someone who could run one."

Systemizing Sales and Marketing

Systemizing Sales and Marketing

He followed the Aligned HQ blueprint to launch a clean ad campaign, a structured funnel, and a service-first sales process. He stopped hoping for results and started trusting the process.


"I used to think sales was about people liking me. But now I see it’s about serving people well. That shift changed everything."

Building a Life, Not Just a Business

Building a Life, Not Just a Business

Vince built his business to support his personal life.


"One Saturday, I booked a client in the morning and spent the whole day at the park with my son. That was the dream. And I’m living it now."


He re-enrolled in the program after graduating, not because he needed to but because he wanted to go even further.


"This gave me more than leads. It gave me direction, identity, and momentum. I’m building a life I love, faster than I ever imagined."
