to launch your first system
Built for owners — not marketers
You don't need an agency anymore.
You just haven't been shown the alternative.
Real estate agents tired of paying for a website that never gets leads
Contractors who keep hearing “you need to be on Google”
Salon, gym, and restaurant owners burning $1,500/mo on ads that don’t work
Local service businesses that want the phone to ring this month
The playbooks already exist
The same systems agencies use.
Stripped down so you can run them yourself.
01
Stop the monthly bleed
Most owners cut 60–80% of what they pay an agency. Same results — sometimes better — without the retainer.
02
Use the pros’ playbooks
Local SEO, Google + Meta ads, your website, social, short-form video, email, automations, and 24/7 voice & chat agents. Each one broken into short lessons with the exact prompts to paste.
03
Launch this weekend
No 90-day onboarding. No status calls. Open a lesson on Saturday morning. Watch the result land by Sunday.
What's inside
9 playbooks. Plain English. Updated as the tools change.
Every lesson keeps a “last updated” stamp. When the tools change — and they will — the lesson changes too. No “Version 2” you have to buy later. No upsell.

Once you’ve used the course skills, you’ll want your own. And once you’ve pasted prompts for a month, you’ll want Claude to read your live data instead. Two lessons that take you from operator to builder.

Who built this program
Hi, I'm Antonio.
For 15 years I've run Ascentrix — a digital marketing agency that handles SEO, paid ads, websites, automations, and AI agents for small businesses. Hundreds of local service businesses — contractors, real estate agents, salons, restaurants, clinics — across more industries than I can count.
In all those years, the thing I've watched up close is small business owners writing $3,000+ monthly checks for work they could honestly do themselves now that AI exists. Not "with a steep learning curve" or "if they had spare time." Themselves. This weekend. With prompts I can paste into a Claude window in 30 seconds.
So I built this course. Every playbook is exactly what my team and I would run for one of our agency clients — but stripped down so you can run it yourself, with the same AI tools we use internally.
If I do my job right, you'll never need an agency again. That's the point.
Before you keep reading
What an agency would charge for the
same systems you’re about to build:
| Local SEO management | $500 – $1,500 / month |
| Google Ads management | $500 – $1,500 / mo + 15% of spend |
| Meta Ads management | $500 – $1,000 / mo + 15% of spend |
| Website (one-time + hosting) | $3,000 – $10,000 + $150 / mo |
| Content + social | $500 – $1,500 / month |
| Email marketing | $300 – $800 / month |
| Automations setup + retainer | $1,000 – $3,000 + $200 / mo |
| AI voice & chat agents | $300 – $2,000 / month each |
| Roughly, with an agency | $48,000 – $144,000 / year |
| Same systems, you run them | $497 / year |
Numbers based on standard small-business agency retainers in 2026. Your local quotes will be in this range — that’s why the math on this course is so absurd.

Why so cheap? You're a founding member. Your $497 funds the next year of lessons, skills, and updates. Once enrollment caps, it goes to $1,997 — and stays there. Founding members keep $497 forever.
Still cheaper than one month of agency retainer. And unlike that retainer, the systems you build here are yours — you own the accounts, the site, the skills, the prompts. Forever.
30-day guarantee
The "Working System" Promise: ship a real result in 30 days, or get every dollar back.
I'm putting the risk on me, not you. If you don't have at least one working marketing system shipped within 30 days of signup — a fully optimized Google Business Profile, a live ad campaign that's actually spending, an AI voice agent answering your missed calls, a real website at your own domain, or any of the other 19 lesson outcomes — email support@ascentrix.io with the subject line "Refund Request — Working System" and I'll refund every penny within 48 hours. No forms, no hoops, no calls.
The one condition: you have to have tried at least one lesson. Show me your draft GBP, your unfinished website, your half-built voice agent — anything. If you followed the steps and the result didn't land, that's on me to fix, and you get every dollar back while I do.
If you bought it and didn't open a single lesson? Then this isn't the right tool for you — and a refund isn't the answer. The course only works if you do.
Honest answers to the questions you're probably about to ask
Why is the price $497 if the real price is $1,997?
What if I cancel? Do I lose access immediately?
Is this really enough to replace an agency?
What if I'm not technical at all?
Do I need any other paid tools?
How often do the lessons get updated?
Can I see what's inside before I buy?
Two choices. One of them
costs you another $50,000 this year.
Option A: Keep paying an agency $4,000–$12,000 a month to do this work for you.
Option B: Spend $497 (founder pricing) and a few weekends learning to run it yourself, with Claude doing the heavy lifting in every lesson.

P.S. Every month you wait, your agency invoice clears your account. This is the cheapest fix to that I can think of — and the price only goes up from here. If you’re going to do it, do it before the founder window closes.
P.P.S. If you’re still not sure, try the free Local SEO Claude Skill first. It’s the exact skill from one of the paid lessons. Install it, see how the course works, come back when you’re ready.
