Black Atlas is built by the team behind Like Media, a marketing agency with more than ten years in small business sales and marketing. Before we sold custom software to anyone, we replaced our own software stack with it.
Subscriptions we no longer pay, every month.
Money that stays in the business instead of going to vendors.
From client management to cold email to time tracking.
Like most agencies, we added a tool every time we needed a new capability. Each one made sense on its own. Together they added up to a five-figure annual bill and a dozen logins.
Client management, email marketing, cold outreach, SEO, AI content, time tracking and team training each had their own vendor and their own bill.
Every new team member added seats across several tools at once, so growing the team grew the software bill with it.
Client information, campaign results and team hours lived in separate systems, so answering a simple question meant checking several of them.
We paid for hundreds of features we never used and still worked around the ones we needed.
Vendasta, Brevo, Instantly, Alli AI, SEO.ai, Circuit for Teams, Clockify, Coassemble and more.
It is the same process and the same team you get. We ran it on our own business, with our own money, before offering it to anyone else.
$90,000+ a year back, and a system that changes whenever the business does.

A national cleaning company stopped losing prospects to missed callbacks, and retired HubSpot, PandaDoc, Utilize Core and a failed $20k automation build. It paid for itself in under seven months.
