AgencyCollective Review: Blake Snodgrass Still Signs The $97 Letter, And Seven Figure Agency Owns The Footer

Blake Snodgrass still signs the letter.

Talk soon, Blake Snodgrass, Founder, AgencyCollective.

That’s the closer on the live checkout at agencycollective.io. Fetched August 19, 2026. Same page. Same pass.

Then you hit the footer.

Copyright © 2025 Seven Figure Agency LLC, DBA AgencyCollective. Operated and maintained by Seven Figure Agency LLC. HQ Miami, FL 33157.

The man on the letter is the founder. The company on the footer bought him.

That’s the person. Here’s the pitch, in his mouth, before I start throwing receipts.

You’re an agency owner. Maybe you’re stuck at $10k months. Maybe you can close, but you can’t keep the calendar full. Maybe fulfillment is a dumpster fire and your “account manager” is you at 11pm. AgencyCollective used to be a high-ticket program. They restructured it. Now you say MAYBE. Seven-day free trial. Then $97 a month. Cancel anytime. Inside: six pillars. Lead gen. Sales process. Closing. Onboarding. Fulfillment. Account management. Blake plus a support team. 1:1 options. Daily SME calls. Accountability chat. Discussion board. Call replays. Resources. A 7-figure curriculum. Weekly Sales Clinic with Payton Welch (the letter names his brother, Taylor Welch). The PR names AgencyCollective coaches Chris Ramirez, Payton Welch, and Josh Stockel. The letter puts Payton on the weekly Sales Clinic and Josh in a testimonial. Chris is on the acquisition release, not a face I scraped off the 2026 checkout. Guests named: Kai Bax, Bobby Stocks, Bijal Patel, Adam McChesney. A GoHighLevel snapshot. Ad copy, funnels, scripts. Sales psychology plus Payton’s script. A funnel pack. Bi-weekly keynotes. A finance spreadsheet bundle. Preferred vendors. A recruiting and hiring masterclass. An Offer Modalities masterclass. Complimentary onboarding. An Agency Diagnostics call. $18,470 in bonus-stack theater for saying MAYBE. They’ve worked with over 1,200 agency owners. The letter’s proof pile: 64,127 leads, 6,248 appointments, 946 high-ticket clients, $3.9MM frontend (not including recurring). And Hite Digital Austin, about $71k a month in 11 months, sold in 30 days, as “proof it was profitable.”

I still hang up when a closer says “just try it for a week.” You think I’m handing a Miami LLC ninety-seven bucks because a founder-signed letter is sitting on a checkout the buyer already sold?

Read on for my Blake Snodgrass / AgencyCollective review.

Who even is Blake Snodgrass?

Public name: Blake Snodgrass. The letter still calls him Founder. Personal site: blakesnodgrass.com. Self-count there: “1,200 local business owners & 950 digital marketers since 2012.” His sentence. I did not audit the Rolodex.

Corpus Christi, Texas area. That’s the hometown file. The checkout footer is Miami. Don’t mash those into one house.

LinkedIn this pass: Founder/CEO, AgencyCollective, January 2023 through August 2025. After that, Founder at GoodLocal, Corpus Christi, TX area. I am not writing that he still day-to-days the $97 Circle. The letter still uses his name and his signature block. Those can both be true.

Before the mastermind, he ran shops. Anchor Media Solutions LLC, 2013 to 2020, Corpus Christi. Local digital agency. Self: 500+ local businesses. That’s the same legal name still sitting on the privacy page in 2026, DBA AgencyCollective, which is a problem I will not flatten for you.

Then Automatic Agency, 2018 to 2020. First coaching program. Self: “900+ entrepreneurs.” Then a Hite Digital franchise in Austin, Texas, 2021 to 2022. Self and letter: about $70k to $71k a month in 11 months, sold in 30 days. The letter uses that sale as proof the agency was profitable. Proof it sold is not a P&L I audited.

Then Client Acquisition Mastery (CAM). Premium agency mentorship aimed at $0 to $30k/month shops. blakesnodgrass.com still says 2022–Present, “day-to-day focus moving into 2023.” Stale. Do not mash CAM into the $97 join. Different SKU. Different year. Different invoice.

AgencyCollective launched June 2022. The February 21, 2025 PR Newswire says millions in revenue over about 2.5 years. Their claim. Then Seven Figure Agency bought it. Then the LinkedIn role ends August 2025. Then you land on a letter that still talks like Blake is the guy at the door.

I am not in his Mercury. I am not in the Hite books. I can barely keep a punch card from the car wash in one piece.

The $97 is real. The classroom is not an independent Blake shop.

$97 a month after a 7-day free trial. Cancel anytime. That’s the live sticker on agencycollective.io, August 19, 2026. “Say MAYBE.” Their sentence.

They say AgencyCollective used to be a high-ticket program, then they restructured it to $97. Also their sentence. I do not have the old invoice. I have this one.

The community is Circle. Not Skool. The FAQ talks login emails and Circle. If some affiliate blog told you this is a Skool, they were selling a different aisle, or they were lazy. I am not writing Skool as the classroom.

Then the cap theater. Same letter. Same pass. Quote the conflict. Do not flatten it.

“170+ other agency owners.” Also “nearing 160” active members. Cap 250. “Full in about 90 days.” The trial goes away at about 200.

So are we at 170, or are we nearing 160, or are we racing a 250 ceiling that fills in 90 days, or does the free week vanish at 200? The letter says all of that. I am not picking the flattering number for them.

The $18,470 bonus stack is theater until you log in and see the files. GHL snapshot, scripts, funnel pack, keynotes, spreadsheet bundle, vendors, masterclasses, a diagnostics call. Fine to list. Not a receipt I opened.

Fetched August 19, 2026. Live letter: agencycollective.io. Acquisition PR: PR Newswire, Feb 21, 2025. Personal site: blakesnodgrass.com.

The refund copy fights itself. Label both windows.

Seven-day free trial. Cancel in the trial and “we won’t give you a hard time.” That’s one hug.

Then a first paid month refund if you’re unsatisfied. Email blake@agencycollective.io. That’s a second hug. It assumes you already left the trial and got charged.

Then, also on the same file: follow the cancellation process within 7 days of your purchase if you want a refund. That’s a third clock. It clashes with “first paid month.” A purchase date is not a first-paid-month date if the trial ate the first week. Quote both. Do not flatten them into one pretty guarantee.

Cancel anytime means no further charges. Access until the next renewal. A refund means you lose all access. Cancel is not a refund. Those are different buttons.

Then the footer disclaimer, which is doing yoga next to the letter. Seven Figure Agency LLC is education and training. They do not make earnings claims. They do not guarantee success.

The letter is full of earnings claims. 64,127 leads. 6,248 appointments. 946 high-ticket clients. $3.9MM frontend. Hite at $71k a month. A $18,470 bonus stack. “We’ve worked with over 1,200 agency owners.”

Education-only footer. Earnings-max letter. Same domain. Fetched the same day. I am not picking a winner for the lawyer. I am telling you both sentences are on the page.

February 2025: they sold the classroom. The letter didn’t get the memo.

On February 21, 2025, PR Newswire ran it. Seven Figure Agency, led by Josh and Yesenia Nelson, Palmetto Bay, Florida, acquired AgencyCollective. Expanding digital marketing clients and talent. Their headline, not mine. The release is still up.

Blake launched AC in June 2022. The PR says millions in revenue over about two and a half years. Again: their claim. Accelerate members got grandfathered into the Seven Figure Agency Portal.

Blake’s quote from that release: they rolled out the red carpet. “I’m officially now Seven Figure Agency’s biggest fan.”

Eighteen months later, August 19, 2026, the live letter still signs him as Founder. The footer still says Seven Figure Agency LLC, DBA AgencyCollective. LinkedIn says the Founder/CEO tour ended August 2025. He is Founder at GoodLocal now.

So what are you joining? A Blake classroom that still talks like 2023? Or a Seven Figure Agency product that kept the letter because the letter still converts?

I am writing the second one. With a first-one costume on.

Seven Figure Agency is a separate, larger coaching shop. 350+ agency owners. Intensives in Miami. Their own portal. Do not flatten SFA’s bigger agency story, or the Intensives, into this $97 checkout. Different invoice. Different room. If someone on a webinar waved the SFA brochure at you while you were looking at AgencyCollective, that’s their mash. Not the sticker.

I am also not writing this as a currently-independent Blake shop. The PR happened. The footer happened. The LinkedIn end date happened. The signature block is the leftover.

Owner-selected testimonials. Not a review widget I audited.

The letter lines up names. Owner-selected. On-page. Not Trustpilot. Not BBB. Not a pile I scraped off Reddit.

Josh Stockel. Kevin Oldham. Heath Friend. Lewis Vandervalk. Payton Welch. Stephan Noack. Jacob Ransom. Craig Tipton.

Jacob Ransom’s line is the classic one. “Don’t join… I don’t want more competition.” Every mastermind since 2014 has a version of that quote. It is still a quote on a sales letter. File it as theater until you meet Jacob in the Circle and he says it with his whole chest.

Payton Welch is both a coach (weekly Sales Clinic) and a testimonial. Josh Stockel is both a named coach and a testimonial. That is allowed. It is also not an outside review. I am labeling it.

The 1,200 agency owners line sits in the same brochure. CAM, Automatic Agency, Anchor, Hite, AC. Blake’s personal site stacks 1,200 local business owners and 950 digital marketers since 2012. Overlapping posters. I am not adding them into one mega-count.

This pass: no lawsuit file. No Trustpilot pile for this SKU that we verified. No BBB pile for this SKU that we verified. None found. I am not inventing Reddit smoke to make the review feel dirtier. If you saw a patstamps.com “Agency Collective Review,” that’s affiliate spam. Ignore it.

Wrong kitchens. Close those tabs.

agencycollective.ai is Agency Collective AI. Armin Nejad. Sheridan, Wyoming. Ads agency, 2024. Not this mastermind. Not this Blake. The hero on this page is a real still from blakesnodgrass.com. Sandy-blond. Navy dotted shirt. Desk, iMac, studio mic. Photographed person. Not an AI avatar. Not Armin.

theagencycollective.net is insurance distribution. Different trade. Different people.

Generic “agency collective” insurance clusters are also not this. If Google dumped you here because of those, sorry about the detour. This slug is snodgrass. Never a number. Never the Wyoming shop.

Who this is for (and who should skip)

This is for you if:

• You already run an agency and you want a cheap Circle with sales-process talk, not a hidden $20k closer
• You can read a founder-signed letter and a buyer-owned footer on the same page without needing me to pick a dad
• $97 a month (after a 7-day trial) is money you can lose without calling your mom
• You can tell a trial cancel from a first-paid-month refund from a “7 days of your purchase” clause, because the page prints all three
• You wanted Blake’s old playbook and you understand Seven Figure Agency is the operator on the footer

Skip if:

• You thought this was still an independent Blake classroom he day-to-days. LinkedIn says that role ended August 2025
• You mashed this with SFA Intensives, the SFA Portal, or a $7M agency story. Different shop
• You mashed this with CAM, Automatic Agency, or Hite. Prior products. Not this invoice
• You typed agencycollective.ai or theagencycollective.net. Wrong kitchen
• You will treat “170+,” “nearing 160,” “cap 250,” and “trial dies at 200” as one number
• You need a clean refund sentence. This file does not have one

Verdict?

Blake Snodgrass is a real Corpus Christi operator with a real agency past, a real Hite sale story, and a real mastermind he launched in June 2022. AgencyCollective is the review target: a 7-day trial into $97 a month, Circle not Skool, a founder-signed letter, a Seven Figure Agency LLC footer, and a privacy page that still says Anchor Media Solutions LLC. Fetched August 19, 2026. The February 21, 2025 PR says Josh and Yesenia Nelson bought it. LinkedIn says Blake’s Founder/CEO line ended August 2025. He is at GoodLocal now. The letter did not update the signature block.

The six pillars, the $18,470 stack, the 64,127 leads, the $3.9MM frontend, the 1,200 agency owners, those are theirs. Owner-selected testimonials on the letter, including a coach praising the room he coaches. Member counts that cannot all be true at once. A refund file that prints a trial hug, a first-paid-month hug, and a 7-day-from-purchase hug. A footer that swears they do not make earnings claims while the letter makes earnings claims.

Not a scam per se. Not a lawsuit I found. Not a Trustpilot pile I found. Not an independent Blake shop either. Cheap if you wanted the Circle and you can live with a sold classroom wearing the old founder’s pen. Expensive theater if you thought $97 bought Blake in your DMs, or if you paid this sticker for Seven Figure Agency’s Intensives.

I’m good.

Q&A

Q: Is Blake Snodgrass legit?
A: Real person. Real photo. Real Corpus Christi file. Real shops before this: Anchor Media Solutions LLC (2013–2020), Automatic Agency (2018–2020), Hite Digital Austin (2021–2022), AgencyCollective (launched June 2022). The $71k Hite months, the 1,200 / 950 career counts, the millions-in-2.5-years PR line, those are self-reported. Legit operator. Spicy brochure. Those can both be true.

Q: Does he still run AgencyCollective?
A: The letter still signs him Founder. LinkedIn dates Founder/CEO as January 2023 to August 2025. After that, Founder at GoodLocal, Corpus Christi, TX area. The February 2025 PR says Seven Figure Agency acquired it. I am not inventing that he still day-to-days the Circle. Signature block and operator are not the same job.

Q: Who owns it then?
A: Footer, August 19, 2026: Seven Figure Agency LLC, DBA AgencyCollective. Operated and maintained by Seven Figure Agency LLC. HQ Miami, FL 33157. Acquisition PR (February 21, 2025): Josh and Yesenia Nelson, Palmetto Bay, FL. Privacy page still names Anchor Media Solutions LLC, DBA AgencyCollective, contact blake@agencycollective.io. Entity conflict. Label both. I am not picking a winner.

Q: How much does AgencyCollective cost?
A: Live public sticker August 19, 2026: 7-day free trial, then $97 a month. Cancel anytime. “Say MAYBE.” They say it used to be high-ticket and got restructured to $97. Confirm on the day you pay. Do not write SFA Intensives tuition as this sticker.

Q: Is it on Skool?
A: No. Circle. The FAQ talks login emails and Circle. If a blog said Skool, they reviewed a different product or they copy-pasted the wrong platform.

Q: What’s the refund?
A: Three clocks on the same file. Cancel in the 7-day trial and they say they won’t give you a hard time. First paid month refund if unsatisfied, email blake@agencycollective.io. Also: follow the cancellation process within 7 days of your purchase. Those last two fight. Cancel anytime = no further charges, access until next renewal. Refund = lose all access. Cancel is not a refund.

Q: Is there a free trial?
A: Yes. Seven days. Then $97/month. The letter also says the trial goes away around 200 members. Same letter still says 170+ and nearing 160. Confirm whether the trial toggle is actually on when you hit checkout.

Q: 170, or 160, or 250, or 200. Which is it?
A: All of those are on the same page this pass. “170+ other agency owners.” “Nearing 160.” Cap 250, “full in about 90 days.” Trial goes away at ~200. I am quoting the conflict. I am not averaging it into a fake headcount.

Q: What’s the $18,470 bonus stack?
A: Brochure math for saying MAYBE. GHL snapshot, ad copy and funnels and scripts, Payton’s sales psychology / script, funnel pack, bi-weekly keynotes, finance spreadsheet bundle, preferred vendors, recruiting/hiring masterclass, Offer Modalities masterclass, complimentary onboarding / Agency Diagnostics call. Theater until you see the files. Not a cart I opened.

Q: Who are the coaches?
A: On the letter: Payton Welch runs the weekly Sales Clinic (brother Taylor Welch is named). Josh Stockel is a named coach and a testimonial. Chris Ramirez is named as an AgencyCollective coach on the February 2025 PR, not a face I pulled off the live letter this pass. Guests named: Kai Bax, Bobby Stocks, Bijal Patel, Adam McChesney. Payton and Josh also appear as testimonials. Owner-selected. Labeled.

Q: Did they really do 64,127 leads and $3.9MM frontend?
A: They say so. 6,248 appointments. 946 high-ticket clients. Frontend, not including recurring. No audited clip this pass. File it as the letter’s.

Q: What about the Hite Digital Austin sale?
A: 2021–2022 franchise. Self and letter: about $70k to $71k a month in 11 months, sold in 30 days. The letter uses the sale as “proof it was profitable.” A sale in 30 days is a sale. It is not my audit of the books.

Q: Client Acquisition Mastery? Automatic Agency?
A: Prior Blake products. CAM: premium mentorship for $0–$30k/month agencies. Site still says 2022–Present / day-to-day into 2023. Stale. Automatic Agency: 2018–2020, “900+ entrepreneurs.” Do not mash either into the $97 AgencyCollective join.

Q: What’s GoodLocal?
A: LinkedIn, this pass: Blake is Founder at GoodLocal, Corpus Christi, TX area, after the AgencyCollective Founder/CEO line ended August 2025. I am not turning GoodLocal into this review’s classroom. Different door.

Q: Is Seven Figure Agency the same offer?
A: Same buyer. Different shop. SFA is a larger coaching operation (350+ agency owners, Intensives in Miami, their portal). Accelerate AC members got grandfathered into that portal, per the PR. Do not flatten SFA’s bigger story into the $97 AC checkout. If you want SFA, go look at SFA. This page is the leftover letter.

Q: Agency Collective AI? Armin?
A: Different company. agencycollective.ai. Armin Nejad. Sheridan, Wyoming. Ads agency. Not Blake. Not this $97 Circle. That’s why the slug is snodgrass.

Q: theagencycollective.net?
A: Insurance. Close the tab.

Q: Reddit? Trustpilot? BBB? Lawsuit?
A: None found this pass for this SKU. I am not recycling generic “agency coaching scam” threads or the Wyoming AI shop as his file. I am not citing patstamps.com. Owner-selected letter testimonials only, plus the PR, plus the live footer.

Q: Is AgencyCollective a scam?
A: I am not hanging that word on a $97 Circle with a printed trial, a named buyer, and no lawsuit file this pass. I am hanging this: the letter still talks like Blake is the founder at the door, the footer says Seven Figure Agency LLC owns the DBA, the privacy page still says Anchor Media Solutions LLC, and the refund clocks do not agree with each other. Spicy brochure. Sold classroom. Read the footer.

Q: Who should not buy this?
A: Anyone who thought Blake still day-to-days it. Anyone who thought $97 was the SFA Intensive. Anyone who mashed this with CAM or Hite. Anyone who needs one refund sentence. Anyone who landed here from agencycollective.ai.

Q: Okay but I still wanna make money with local businesses without paying $97 for a founder-signed letter on a Miami LLC’s leftover Circle.
A: Wild concept: build little local websites, rank them in Google, and rent the leads to real businesses. No “say MAYBE.” No 170-versus-160 theater. No footer that bought the byline.

It’s about as sexy as organizing the junk drawer, which is why filthy SEO goblins like me keep doing it.

If that quieter path sounds less insane than locking in $97 because a sold classroom kept the old founder’s signature, start at unemployable.org.
