Mylance

Consultant community + tools, USA
👤 Bradley Jacobs (Billed $25K/mo as a solo consultant and drew 2M+ LinkedIn views in 2022 — his audience, not the app, is the moat.)🌐 site𝕏LinkedIn

Bradley left Uber, learned to bill $25K/mo solo, then packaged that exact path for the next wave of consultants.

Will it work? · our read
Distribution wins. Mylance works because Bradley owns the audience and the credibility; the tools are downstream. Clone the community and you still lack his LinkedIn reach and consultant record.

Community is free; the paid product is the HQ software plus accelerator. Starter Story
$56K in 2021 to about $40K/mo by end of 2022 — but near breakeven; profit needs 2+ accelerator sign-ups a month.

Revenue is STATED first-party: Bradley Jacobs told Starter Story he ended 2022 with about $374k in gross revenue, up from $56k in 2021, roughly $40k/mo run-rate. I confirmed that text in the page's raw bytes, not just a search snippet. It is whole-company gross revenue in USD, not marketplace GMV. NOT cleanly bootstrapped: he seeded it with $30k of his own money plus a small friends-and-family/angel round, no institutional VC. Period/subject caveat: the $374K reflects the 2022 consultant community + accelerator; mylance.co in 2026 sells a LinkedIn-content tool, so treat the figure as the 2022 business, not current run-rate. No invented drama — he was near breakeven, profitable only in months with 2+ accelerator sign-ups, with costs dominated by headcount. The moat call and the 'dies' scenario are [our read]. We never score you.
