What if you could hire a top-tier ad strategist without paying a dime upfront? In this episode of What the Nell, I sit down with Mike Boblett — a full-time ad agency pro, father of three, and the relentless founder behind The Ad Man. From Uber deliveries to CTV campaign management, Mike opens up about his unconventional “grow first, pay later” model and why he believes transparency is the future of advertising. If you're an entrepreneur afraid to take the leap, Mike’s story is your sign.
We dive deep into how Mike built his agency on trust and grit, the power of consistency, and the personal struggles that lit a fire under his mission. Mike shares productivity tips, content creation hacks, and why he journals his vision statement every single day. Whether you’re juggling multiple jobs or building your business from scratch, this one will leave you feeling empowered, grounded, and ready to move — no excuses.
