I'm not an agency.
I'm an oil man
who does marketing.
Seven years inside an operator, running investor relations and lead generation before I ever sold marketing. I know what a title opinion is, why your spud date moved, and why you don't want your acreage position on the internet.

What I won't do.
Most of what protects you in this business is a list of things your marketing person declines to do. Here's mine, in writing, before you ask.
I don't take a percentage of your raise.
A marketer paid on capital raised is a broker. An unregistered broker can void your exemption and hand every investor a rescission right. Flat fee, always — quoted before I start, invoiced monthly, unchanged by whether you close.
I don't contact your investors.
Every inquiry routes to you. I build the material; you and your counsel own the conversation. That line is what keeps me a vendor instead of a finder.
I don't subcontract.
You get me. There is no junior account manager, no offshore production team, and nobody on your deal who hasn't signed your NDA.
I don't take two operators in the same play.
Your prospect list, your acreage and your timing stay yours. One operator per basin per raise, and I'll tell you if that means turning you down.
I don't publish your name.
No logo wall, no case study, no press release with your company in it, unless you've given me permission in writing for that specific use.
I work with four operators at a time. That's the number where I can still read every page of your deck myself.
How I work
Quiet
Raising under 506(b) means no general solicitation, and the burden of proving it is yours. If your marketing creates a public footprint, your exemption is at risk. I build closed-door rooms, tracked deal books, and blind funnels that do not broadcast your raise.
Easy
You should spend your day drilling wells, not editing ad copy. You give me the prospect data and the target; I return the finished package. You review it, you approve it, and we launch.
Ours
I do not use templates. I do not resell generic energy funnels. Every piece of collateral is custom-built for your acreage, your team, and your target LP.

The Alternative
A broker-dealer selling your offering is paid a percentage of the capital it raises. Here is how that is typically quoted, next to a flat-fee program on the same $12M raise.
| Broker-dealer model | Share of raise |
|---|---|
| Selling commission | 6.0% |
| Dealer-manager fee | 1.5% |
| Wholesaling and due diligence | 0.5–1.0% |
| Organization and offering | 1.0–2.0% |
| Total | 9.0–10.5% |
| MediaJack program | Twelve-month cost |
|---|---|
| Retainer, 12 months | $180,000 |
| Media, 8 active months | $200,000 |
| Creative and landing pages | $25,000 |
| Third-party verification, about 200 investors | $30,000 |
| About 3.6% of capital raised | $435,000 |
That gap is the argument. I can't be paid on your raise without registering as a broker. A broker-dealer engagement has different costs and service scopes, so it isn't an equivalent comparison.
How to start
THE EXEMPTION REVIEW
Fixed fee · Two weeks
One call to establish which exemption you're on. A written review of what your current materials permit and where they cross a line. A documented plan for the raise.
Fixed fee, quoted on the first call. Yours to keep whether or not you hire me for the rest.
FULL ENGAGEMENT
Monthly retainer · Twelve months
Everything in the services list, run as one program across the raise. Flat monthly fee, quoted before we start.
Priced on scope after the review.
Start with a phone call and an NDA.
First conversation is which exemption you're on and what it permits.
No charge, no deck, nothing recorded.
