If you’ve ever wondered why your business feels stuck — despite working hard on your marketing or your sales — this episode is for you.
This week, I sat down with Kyle Andrews, CEO and Founder of Next Level Revenue and author of The Next Level Revenue Formula. Kyle has a fascinating journey from lab manager, to karate school owner, to leading a multimillion-dollar marketing and sales company. What ties it all together? His obsession with process, data, and creating predictable results.
Here are my key takeaways from our conversation:
- Marketing and sales aren’t two separate departments — together, they form the “revenue zipper” that keeps growth predictable and profits flowing.
- Optimization is everything. Kyle learned early on that when you tweak the right part of a process, you unlock exponential results.
- Revenue growth is math, not magic. With the right system, you can literally predict your results.
- Many entrepreneurs focus on topline numbers but forget profitability — the real goal is profitable revenue.
- Podcasting, when integrated into a larger ecosystem, isn’t just about visibility. It’s a powerful sales strategy to build trust and move prospects closer to working with you.
- Stop relying on outdated metrics like “7 touches” — today, buyers may need 30+ interactions before they’re ready to buy. Kyle’s approach: “Seven times, seven ways.”
In this episode, Kyle shares the exact frameworks he’s created to help businesses remove the silos between sales and marketing, measure ROI with clarity, and build systems that don’t just generate leads but actually convert them. His story proves that when you bring curiosity, creativity, and a little “MacGyver” thinking to business growth, the results are revolutionary.
If you’re ready to stop treating sales and marketing as separate worlds and finally align your business around predictable, profitable revenue — this conversation will change the way you think.
