Shifting From a Side Hustle to a Growing Authority
At 12, Kerns began his entrepreneurial journey by selling gum, building a small sales team to support his efforts, and saving more money than he had at 20. With his desire to establish his ventures, Kerns left college and launched iComeUp Marketing in 2016, committed to helping people establish dominant and authentic online brands. Building social proof was challenging during this time due to the lack of credibility. With digital platforms flooded with bots and fake numbers, Kerns built his following and client base by offering true engagement, authority, and working systems. Kerns’ client-first business approach has helped the entrepreneur scale his businesses, ultimately paving the way for the launch of Kerns Marketing. This business venture is now a full-scale growth engine led by Kerns’ tailored strategies and powerful team. Some of the entrepreneur’s strategies include:- Influencer collaboration campaigns
- Social media growth and management
- Brand content enhancement
- High-quality video editing and on-site production
- Lead flow systems and prospecting tactics
- Automation builds and internal system development
- Scalable strategies to grow revenue and drive authority
