MEET YOUR GROWTH STRATEGIST
I’m Eduard Boka, founder of Contracting Empire. Growing up in communist Romania, I learned that hard work alone isn’t enough. You need infrastructure, vision, and execution to evolve. Marketing is no different.
After 20 years in this game, I’ve seen every gimmick. While budget agencies hide behind “marketing magic,” I lead with the math and transparency required to scale. We use the same system that took Deck Bros from $1M to $15M+ in 4 years to build an engine that buys back your time and secures your family’s future.
"Partnership" Means
You Stay In The Owner Seat
Every contractor reaches a point where referrals and scattered marketing stop working. The next instinct is usually to hire in-house.
And we’ve seen how that plays out: they hire one or two people, the learning curve takes at least 6-8 months, they need to be supervised all the time, and you don’t really have a system, so progress depends a lot on the individuals you brought to the team.
Instead of building a marketing department from scratch, our clients plug into one that already exists.
A distributed team across Europe and Asia, made up of specialists in strategy, SEO, copy, paid ads, CRO, data, creative, and execution.

Partnering with us doesn’t mean learning marketing or managing marketers. It means freeing up mental space so you show up where it matters: with your team, your family, and the decisions that actually grow your business.
If you:
- want control over your revenue
- value leverage over busy work
- are willing to delegate instead of micromanaging
- and care about the long game more than switching strategies all the time,
This partnership makes sense.
If not, building in-house or working with another agency might feel more comfortable. Comfort isn’t something we optimize for.

DOING NOTHING IS AN EXPENSIVE DECISION
You’ve seen what fragmented marketing produces. You’ve also seen what a real system does. From here, you can keep on hoping or move toward a life-changing decision.
