Where He Started
Brady was a youth pastor. Youth pastors, as he puts it, do not get paid very much, so his day job was working for his dad Billy Sticker’s agency, ChiroCandy Marketing, where he had been employee number one since high school.
While he was at Bible college it occurred to him that everything they were doing for chiropractors, the local church needed too. He started helping the church he was on staff at. His pastor began introducing him to other pastors and church planters in other cities. That was 2021, as a side hustle. In 2022 he bought churchcandy.com and decided to take it seriously.
The Month That Got Everyone’s Attention
In March 2025, Church Candy signed 108 new clients.
Every agency owner who hears that number asks the same question, which is what the ad was. Brady’s answer is that there wasn’t one.
What actually happened was simpler and far more repeatable. March is the month before Easter, the single biggest Sunday of the year for churches, so it is the moment a church is most willing to invest in getting new guests through the door. Brady had roughly 1,500 people sitting in his database who had taken a sales call with him over the years and never signed up. For that one month he waived the onboarding fee, worth about $500, and went back to that list.
A full-time SDR worked the replies inside HighLevel and got people onto the calendar.
What made it work
- One offer, no menu. Facebook and Instagram ads for churches at $750 a month, with a HighLevel sub-account branded as Church Funnels. Nothing to configure, nothing to negotiate.
- A reason to act now. Waiving the setup fee gave a real dollar answer to the question of why this month.
- The market’s calendar, not his. He ran it into Easter, when the need was already urgent.
- A database he had been building for years. Roughly 1,500 prior sales conversations and an email list around 15,000.
- Someone to catch the replies. A dedicated SDR meant the response volume converted instead of going cold.
Brady is candid about the one thing he got wrong. They sent all the texts at once instead of dripping them. The copy worked far better than expected and the volume nearly buried the team. His advice is to drip it.
Why the Offer Landed
The part that does not fit inside a single month is the reason any of those pastors replied at all.
Brady wrote two books, The Plan Your Visit Playbook for established churches and Launch Big for church planters, and put a call to action for them in everything he made. He started a podcast when he had about fifteen clients and the production quality, by his own description, was not good. He kept going anyway. He speaks at church conferences, where people now stop him to ask how close Church Candy is to its goal of connecting a million people to a local church.
That is the part that took three years, and the part that made a single month possible.
Where He Is Now
Brady crossed seven figures eighteen months after going full time, at twenty-five years old. Church Candy has since passed $175,000 in monthly recurring revenue and he has reached the TITAN level inside Seven Figure Agency, the room reserved for members running multiple seven figures.
