How Blake Nubar Built a Million-Dollar Funnel Business
From a failed nine-month project to $1M in 43 days — how Blake Nubar turned his Facebook profile into a landing page and built a funnel empire through a client-first mentality.
Blake Nubar's journey into the world of sales funnels started with failure. After spending nine months building a project that nobody bought, a late-night Facebook ad from Russell Brunson changed everything. That spark led to his first $797 funnel sale — and an immediate resignation from his day job.
The Facebook Profile Strategy
What made Blake stand out was an unconventional traffic method: he transformed his personal Facebook profile into a functioning landing page. By redesigning his cover photo as a promotional banner with clickable elements, visitors would see a pop-up with links and calls-to-action.
The result? $25,000 in organic sales within nine days, with zero paid advertising.
Client-First, Always
After getting advice from a celebrity trainer, Blake shifted his approach entirely. Instead of chasing multiple small clients, he went all-in on individual partnerships, obsessing over their success rather than his own metrics.
This mindset shift led to a partnership that generated $1 million in just 43 days — and $7 million in the first year.
The Lean Testing Framework
Blake doesn't build complete products before validating demand. His approach:
- Create a minimal landing page
- Run $10/day in ads
- Test the concept before investing serious development time
This pre-launch validation strategy has saved him from building things nobody wants.
The Numbers That Matter
| Metric | Result |
|---|---|
| First funnel sale | $797 |
| Partnership revenue | $1M in 43 days |
| Year one total | $7M |
| Profile strategy | $25K in 9 days (organic) |
| Course launch | 1,000 copies in 30 minutes |
| Affiliate network | 757 affiliates from one slide |
The Takeaway
Blake's story isn't about a specific tactic — it's about willingness to start before feeling ready, test ideas cheaply, and keep pushing when motivation fades. As he puts it, ambition matters more than intelligence because it sustains effort beyond the initial excitement.
