Opulence is the sought-after product of passion plus hard work multiplied by determination. Those who not only reach the pinnacles of success but plateau afterward are often revered for having seemingly unattainable qualities far removed from the rest of us. However, the reality of the path to affluence is not an unreachable mirage but the result of proven methods. Founder of Iron Media Solutions, Josh Ocasio, has provided a blueprint of these approaches, continuously proving that passion, work, and resilience are the keys to success. He and his company continue to scale businesses to seven and eight figures annually and to understand how Ocasio can do this, a look at his journey is vital.
Ocasio’s inspirational story begins after he started his career with $7,000 to his name after he quit his job at a car dealership. The young entrepreneur was given six months to prove to his family that he could go above and beyond the walls of college. He faced the challenge head-on. Ocasio, who had already been sculpting his video creation skills, amassed a large following on TikTok but longed to find a way to turn his views into financial success. He used the bulk of his savings to purchase a laptop and spent the rest on various courses geared toward learning the craft of ad placement. Five months into his post-high school venture, Ocasio met with the owner of Wojo Media—a digital marketing company that runs ads for service-based businesses—who ultimately charged him $200 per hour to fix his parent’s ad account. The venture proved highly effective, and the innovator purchased three additional calls. By the sixth and final month following the initial loan of using his parents money torun ads for their company, he had made an impressive profit of $15,000.
Ocasio turned back to Wojo Media, where he applied to be a coach but was ultimately hired on as a media buyer. Throughout his time with Wojo Media, Ocasio began running the entire backend for the company. The owner of Wojo Media recognized Ocasio’s persistence and virtually unmatched drive to succeed, culminating in a steadfast friendship. After only two months, the head of the media buying department stepped away from the company, and Ocasio was immediately called upon. Ocasio trained closely with the owner of Wojo Media, absorbing everything he could for more than half a year, and three months later, he started Iron Media Solutions. Ocasio ended up helping several Fortune 500 companies with his tireless work, scaling their businesses to greater and greater heights.
As the founder of Iron Media Solutions, Ocasio specializes in taking companies from six to seven to eight figures in annual revenue. Utilizing either lead generation or Shopify/e-commerce brands, Iron Media Solutions has now scaled multiple businesses countless times, proving their methods and strategies are as effective as they come. Ocasio’s journey from a young, inspired entrepreneur with limited resources to a successful business owner is proof of his own advice: to take what finances you have and invest in high-income skills if you want any substantial returns in life. As for Iron Media Solutions, the company continues to grow daily. Ocasio envisions it becoming a multiple six-figure per month business, touching as many people as possible and continually helping high-level professionals accomplish their biggest goals.
