This is pretty genius, Alan. I love how you used the word curious to make people more curious about curiosity itself. It's ironic, creative, and just amazing. I really do have so much to learn about copywriting.

Ibrahim Sheriffdeen Amoto

This is so powerful. 

I'm curious to see how this works when I start implementing it in my messaging.

Curious to digest this better... It's going to be reading this post many more time again.

    I can't help but rave about it to friends. I've learned so much already and just a few short months and 4x'd my income. December was my first 20k/month as a freelancer thanks to the marketing knowledge I've been learning here.

  • Andrew Woo

    CEO @ GetHoneyCart.com

    I was very skeptical about everything before finding NHB and Alen because I was disappointed/burned by marketing agencies, coaches, courses etc. [...] my revenue has grown 50% during that time, conversion rate went from <1% to 4%.

  • Ben Valen

    Ads Specialist

    Joining NHB+ and Fast Forward helped me 3x my income in a year – from $128k to $353k – and land my first $10k/mo client. 2025 is my million-dollar year.

  • Laura Meyer

    It's the best group I've ever been in (and I've been in a lot!). Not only is Alen incredibly generous with his experience and knowledge, but I find that his commitment to ethical marketing - or 'clean' biz ops - has been a wonderful values alignment for me in how I like to market and sell online.

  • Vini Domingues

    Utah, USA

    I was running a simple MRR agency until I joined NHB+ and FF. 

    After joining my business went on to make 7 figures in under 11 months using the AC offer + building offers for clients it was a massive transformation for me. I built an offer that I absolutely love using the AC model and what I learned in NHB.

  • Alexandre Tremblay

    Quebec, Canada

    After learning from Alen and the community in NHB+, I feel that I can come in any business and help them with marketing.

    There is literally no limit to how I think and how I can solve problems for my client because I understand how to think and why different structure works. Many people consider me as the go to guy if they have a question/problem about their marketing on the French market.

  • Eric Cipolla

    Columbia, South Carolina

    I've spent thousands on other masterminds, courses, etc over the years but nothing comes CLOSE to the value of Fast Forward. If you're on the fence, let me know and I'll personally blow that fence up for you so you join us inside (lol).

    A million times thank you Alen... I'm now on track to retire my parents and give back to the world like I set out to do over 12 years ago.

  • Ryšard Zablocki

    NHB is like getting an X-Ray vision for marketing and seeing the layers of how things work.

    Being in NHB+ (and now in FF) is like getting a shortcut for your life. It requires a lot of work and learning but I bet you won’t find anything that come close to the level you get here ❤️

  • Matt Bockenstette

    Lake Forest, California

    God damnit, Alen.

    It's been 3 days. 3 measly days since I joined NHB+, and in that time, I’ve binged close to 20 hours of your ads/copy calls, and I’ve already learned more than the 2+ years I spent building Copy Legends, studying the OG guys, reading their books, etc.

    (And this doesn't even include the incredible value of the "Mindset" portions of each call...)

  • Andrew Woo

    CEO @ GetHoneyCart.com

    I had 9 months to watch Alen keep his word: every question from every member in every Hot Seat and Fast Feedback gets answered; he is extremely generous with answering questions on his weekly theory lectures, and the surprising thing is he will even point out things he notices in people's mindset that will help them improve. He often gives you 'the answer you need, not necessarily the answer you wanted' as he truly wishes the best for others.

  • Carlo Loru

    I just wanted to say thank you Alen for teaching me "how to think". I obviously have tons more to learn from you, but it's crazy how much I learned in such a small amount of time (and I already had experience).

    You just gave me such confidence to close any deal, build offers, improve any sales process and have the freedom to decide what to do with my skills.

  • Abdullah Ashraf

    Manchester, United Kingdom

    There are coaches, there are gurus, and then there’s Alen

    Always spitting straight fire. Always honours his word. Always got time for you. And always looking out for you.

    Fair to say he changed my life these last 12 months.

    I’ve not achieved anything groundbreaking (to me) but my business, mindset and life are in a better place than they’ve ever been!
