Hi there, I’m Michael Janda, your creative business mentor.
I built my agency without a mentor. You don't have to. Let's work together.
I spent 13 years building and selling my creative agency, working with clients like Disney, Google, and Fox. I learned every lesson the hard way.
Now I help creative entrepreneurs skip the trial and error through More Creative Academy, where you’ll get practical mentorship, proven business systems, and a community committed to helping you build a more profitable business.
I’ve made the mistakes, learned the lessons, and built the systems. My goal is simple: help you avoid the years of trial and error I went through so you can build your business faster, with more confidence and a whole lot less stress. Learn more about Mike.

Still thinking it over?
Here are answers to the most common questions about MCA.
How do I access the community and content?
MCA is hosted on Circle with a private, members-only platform that’s accessible on desktop and mobile app. You’ll get instant access after joining, so you can jump into discussions, watch content, and attend sessions right away.
Are your courses included in the community?
There is a ton of course content in MCA and MCA Pro and VIP include access to key courses like Agency Steroids, along with an expanding library of lessons, replays, and tools designed to help you grow your business. My courses, The Ultimate Freelance Course and Web Design Business Bootcamp, are not part of the MCA curriculum, but you will find many lessons from those courses intermingled in the community content.
Is there a discount if I've taken Mike's courses?
MCA Pro already includes many of the courses and resources offered separately, making it the most cost-effective way to access everything in one place. If you’ve taken a course before, MCA builds on that foundation with coaching, accountability, and community.
Do you offer parity pricing?
We don’t offer parity pricing. MCA Pro is already priced aggressively for the value included, and we also offer a free membership option so anyone can get started and benefit from the community.
What types of people are in the community?
MCA is built for creative professionals of all kinds including designers, developers, marketers, brand strategists, photographers, videographers, SEO specialists, and agency owners. Everyone shares the same goal: building a better, more profitable creative business.
How is this different from free content online?
Free content can teach you ideas. MCA helps you implement them. You get direct coaching, accountability, and a community that supports you in actually taking action and moving forward.
How much access will I have to Michael Janda?
MCA Pro members get direct access through live group coaching sessions, monthly lessons, and the ability to interact inside the community direct message platform. VIP members get even deeper access with 1:1 sessions and direct communication to Mike via text message.
What time of day are the live sessions?
Live sessions are typically held on Tuesdays or Thursdays at NOON EST. We have found that this time accommodates the most amount of community members. Replays are available within 24 hours inside the community for any events you may have missed.
Can I cancel anytime and how do I cancel?
Yes. You can cancel your membership at any time. There are no long-term contracts. You have control of your membership inside your MCA profile…no need to contact someone on the MCA team to cancel. Just click the button in your profile.
When do I get access?
Immediately. As soon as you join, you’ll get instant access to the community, content, and upcoming sessions.
What if I'm too busy to attend live sessions?
No problem. Every session is recorded and added to the replay library, so you can learn on your schedule.
Is this worth it if I’m not making much money yet?
Yes. Many members join while still building their income. MCA is designed to help you get better clients, improve your pricing, and build a more stable business.
Is this worth it if I’m already experienced?
Yes. Many members are experienced freelancers and agency owners looking to scale, increase profit, and refine their systems. The conversations and coaching go way beyond beginner-level advice, especially in MCA VIP.
What makes MCA different from other communities?
MCA isn’t just content and it’s not just another community. It’s where you get coached, held accountable, and pushed to actually execute.
It’s led by Michael Janda, who built, scaled, and sold an 8 figure creative agency, earned 3x Inc. 5000 recognition, and worked with brands like Disney, Google, ABC, NBC, and Fox. This is real world experience, not theory.
And you’re not just another member. You will build real relationships with Mike and other creatives who are serious about growth. This is mentorship, not just a community.
Do you offer refunds?
Because of the immediate access to all content and resources, we don’t offer refunds. If you’re on the fence, start with the free plan or try a monthly membership first, then upgrade later to a discounted long-term option. You can cancel anytime.
What kind of results and ROI can I expect?
Most members see value quickly by improving their pricing, landing better clients, or avoiding costly mistakes. Even one small win can cover the cost of membership many times over. The exact results depend on your effort, but the tools and support are there to help you make real progress.
This is how creative businesses scale.
