Corey's Mission
I believe that undercharging isn't humility but it's disobedience. God gave you gifts. Not so you could give them away for free. But so you could steward them well.
And since I did not know when to "Serve" and when to "Sell", I got paid with 3 Whataburger Coupons. So I am focused on helping YOU launch and build a profitable business.
My mission is simple: Help faith-based entrepreneurs charge what they're worth so they can serve without burnout, provide for their families, and build legacies that outlast them.
Because here's the truth: You can't fulfill a calling you can't fund.
I want you to serve at your highest good...
What Do You Do When a Client Pays You With Burger Coupons or "I'll Send You A Referral?
That was my reality in 2019. I was known as the "Free Guy" because I was afraid to charge money for services I rendered.
After delivering a $2,000 leadership workshop, the pastor's secretary handed me three Whataburger coupons. I took them. Said thank you.
And drove home in shame. I almost threw them away. But instead, I laminated them. Pinned them to my office wall. And made a decision: Never again.
That moment became the catalyst for everything that followed.
14 months later, I was holding a million-dollar award with my daughter. Not because I'm special.
But because I finally made three commitments: Clarity. Courage. Commerce.
Today, I help faith-based coaches and consultants do the same which is charge what YOU are worth so YOU can serve at the highest level for the longest time.
If you're a faith-based coach, consultant, or service provider who's been:
Doing free work hoping someone will finally pay you
Avoiding pricing conversations because you're afraid they'll say no
Missing family dinners because you're too busy "serving"
Playing small because you're worried about what people will think
Does this sound familiar?
You're not alone. I was the "free guy" for years. Until the burger coupon moment woke me up.
Grab my new book because I wrote it for you.
Inside, you'll discover:
✓ Why undercharging isn't humility—it's disobedience
✓ The 3 lies that keep faith-based entrepreneurs stuck at "free"
✓ How to master your story, pricing, and message
✓ The exact framework I used to go from $0 to $1M in 14 months
Your gifts are valuable. Your time matters. Your calling deserves to be fully funded.
For 24 years, I followed orders. I served 8 years in the U.S. Navy. Then spent 16 years climbing the corporate ladder at Best Buy, eventually earning a six-figure salary as an HR leader.
From the outside, it looked like I'd made it.
But inside, I was suffocating. The corporate games. The suppression. The feeling that nothing I did was ever good enough.
I was building someone else's dream while my own gathered dust. And then came the moment that changed everything...
On May 27, 2020—the day after my birthday, three months after COVID shut down the world and I walked away from $145,000 a year.
No backup plan. No strategy. Just faith and a family of seven counting on me.
The first five months were brutal. I made $15,000. Sleepless nights. Mounting bills. Fear that I'd lose everything.
But I didn't quit.
I invested in mentorship. Raised my standards. Committed to mastery.
And the results followed:
- $108,000 in 83 days and the first million within 14 months
Over $4 million generated since
But the real win? Helping hundreds of faith-based entrepreneurs break free from undercharging and build businesses that honor their calling.
I wrote this book to help you unlock the gift within you and help you fulfill your purpose
Today?
Today, I live in Katy, Texas with my wife Tabitha and our five children (CJ, Eric, Nathaniel, Destinee, and Zoey).
When I'm not coaching clients, you'll find me:
- Smoking BBQ to celebrate client wins
- Traveling with my family
- Serving at my local church
- Reminding entrepreneurs that their calling and their commerce don't have to be enemies
The laminated burger coupon still is in my office.
A daily reminder: Your work is cut out for you. Never settle for less than you're worth.
