More about Derek
I’m Derek —better known online as Derek the Strategist. For over a decade, I ran high-level marketing campaigns for brands, media companies, and eCommerce stores, managing millions in ad spend. I was deep in the performance marketing world—Facebook Ads, SEO, data analysis, funnels, lead gen—you name it.
But after years of burnout, stress, and feeling disconnected from my purpose, I hit rock bottom. No money, no freedom, and no joy. I knew I had more to offer than helping big companies grow—I wanted to help people grow.
That’s when I made the pivot.
Today, I coach and teach 35+ aspiring creators and online entrepreneurs how to build personal brands, create digital products, and monetize content—without burnout, confusion, or wasting time. Whether you're trying to grow your YouTube, sell your first eBook, or finally quit your 9-5, I’m here to show you the blueprint.
Everything I teach comes from real experience. I’ve rebuilt from scratch using the same systems and strategies I now teach inside my programs like The 4–8 Before the 9–5 Bootcamp, Commit to Quit, and The Content Creator Blueprint.
If you're tired of sitting on your ideas and ready to build a business that gives you freedom, income, and impact—you're in the right place.
Let’s get to work.
