Intro

At just eight years old, Rudy Mawer was banned from selling on the playground. But that didn't deter his hustler spirit. As a teenager, he created one of the world’s largest gaming communities. By his twenties, Rudy was unstoppable. After moving to the U.S. with big dreams, he launched his first fitness business and scaled it to millions of dollars using bold marketing strategies. He then launched ROI Machines, a direct response agency that has helped scale some of the biggest celebrity and corporate brands.
