Before joining Action Academy, I was lost on next steps to financial freedom. I had played by the rules: a long, successful sales career, 401k, and even real estate investing, but I still saw no way to leave my job and live the life I really wanted. Within months of joining AAC, I had a clear vision of my goals and a means to get there: I divested my multi-family portfolio and invested the proceeds in AAC member deals, ranging from small business acquisitions and mobile home parks to real estate flips. The result: creating a passive income that exceeds my current W2 and a clear path to leaving my job within the year. Action Academy is an incredible community of like-minded, passionate members and visionary leaders and coaches that support and help drive our success. If you are seeking a different path, if you are looking for a mindset shift, and if you need support in getting there, I highly recommend Action Academy. Financial freedom is just around the corner if you start now!

I joined Action Academy in the middle of a high-anxiety transition and life shift. I'd just left a 20-year corporate executive role due to a pending company sale and had zero clarity on what came next. I'd always been skeptical of masterminds, but I was at a point where I needed to be around people who were actually doing things, not just talking about them. I already had a real estate portfolio before AAC, but I was treating it like a side hobby rather than a business. Being around operators in the group showed me how unintentional I'd been about it. Within a few months of actually treating it like a business and operating leaner, I'd increased the portfolio value substantially and unlocked over $1.5 million in equity to redeploy into both new properties and investments that will keep snowballing my net worth. I've also invested in two lucrative deals directly with other AAC members, opportunities I wouldn't have had access to otherwise. But honestly, the bigger shift was mental. I always knew I wanted to be an "investor," but I was sitting on the sidelines waiting for the perfect moment. Working with Mason and being in the group was what actually gave me the confidence and mindset shift to get me off the bench and doing it. The shift of viewing myself as an entrepreneur who eats what he kills, not as someone waiting for permission, changed everything. My path looks a little different than most members. I'm focused on real estate and repositioning an existing consulting business rather than a first-time SBA acquisition, but the principles and the network work regardless of your specific play. To this day I'm still getting weekly value, whether it's a connection that opens a door, a framework that clarifies my thinking, or just being in a room with people who get it. I'd recommend Action Academy to anyone who's ready to invest in themselves and wants to be around people who are building real businesses, not just consuming content.

Before joining Action Academy, I was a hospitalist PA trying to figure out what I could do to retire from my job 5 years early. Since joining AAC, I was able to acquire 44 doors and set myself on a trajectory to retiring from my job in the next 1-2 years 🤯. I met mentors like Mason Miranda who has helped me fold the time it takes to complete the above. I am forever grateful for the mentorship that they poured into me, and am confident that I will be able to reach my goals. What I love most about Action Academy is individualized coaching and mentorship that helps catapult you from where you are, to where you’ve only ever dreamed of being. I’d highly recommend Action Academy to anyone looking to become w2 optional in a fraction of the time. If this is you, this group is worth your investment.

Before joining Action Academy in January 2025, I had been running my business for years, just getting by. I was closing deals and keeping things moving, but I was doing it alone. I didn't have strong connections or a room of people who understood what I was building. I knew I wanted to scale. I knew I wanted something bigger, something beyond myself for my family. I just didn't have the who. Fast forward one year, and I've raised 6 figures in private capital from within the group alone. I've connected with more than 200+ driven entrepreneurs. And I completely rewired how I think about business. The coaching didn't just give me strategy. It gave me permission to think bigger, to stop operating like a one-woman show and start building like a CEO. My business is niche. It's not the typical deal structure you see in most communities. But the level of support I received inside Action Academy was unmatched. The coaches didn't skip a beat. The members genuinely invested in understanding what I do and finding ways to help. That kind of environment is rare. What I love most about Action Academy is that it meets you where you are and pushes you where you need to go. The coaching gave me clarity. The community gave me momentum. The accountability made sure I didn't let myself off the hook. I'd highly recommend Action Academy to anyone who has been grinding alone and knows they were meant for more. Stop looking for the how. Find the who. This is the room.

Before joining Action Academy, I was a hospitality entrepreneur with big ambitions, but I was still trying to bridge the gap between vision and execution: sharpening my capital-raising + deal-structuring skillset, building repeatable systems, and surrounding myself with people who were already doing the kind of experiential hospitality investing I’m building toward. Since joining AAC: -I’ve met incredible partners, mentors, and coaches including operators, investors, and experienced deal-doers, who helped me think bigger and do more through direct feedback, introductions, and the kind of practical guidance that saves you months of trial-and-error. -I’ve shifted my mindset from scarcity to abundance. From “I need to have it all figured out myself before I move” to “take the next right step with clarity and a support system.” This has led to faster decisions, stronger conviction, and more consistent action. -I’ve gotten clarity and narrowed my buy box and am currently acquiring two incredible hospitality assets! Both of which include partners and investors I’ve met through AAC! What I love most about Action Academy is the community + coaching cadence, the mix of action-oriented accountability, real deal feedback, and the “you’re not alone in this” network. It’s not just motivation; it’s a place where you can bring a real project, get perspective, and leave with a clearer plan. I’d highly recommend Action Academy to anyone looking to build the right network and collapse the time between “ideas” and “execution.”

So before joining Action Academy I had a few short term rentals and was trying to build an online business selling digital products but had kind of lost momentum and was going to give up and work towards acquiring a small business. The first few weeks I had a mindset shift after connecting with several members and realized I had been holding myself back in growing my STR portfolio due to limited beliefs. In a little over 3 months, I acquired a million dollar beach house in a completely different state and with a capital partner - neither of which I thought was possible before. After receiving coaching from Mason and talking with more members, I pivoted out of SBA/hospitality (for the time being) to focus on building an online coaching business (related to my career as an SLP) that not only aligns best with my vivid vision and the time/location freedom I’m looking for, but will also impact countless lives in a truly powerful way. What I love most about Action Academy is the immense support you receive from other members and coaches to gain clarity on what you actually want in life (cash flow, lifestyle, etc) and then help you achieve it with accountability and support! I recommend AAC to anyone needing clarity, accountability, and next-level advice from people who have actually done it and are currently doing it too!

Before joining Action Academy, I owned one multifamily property while trying to escape the rat race. After having one, I quickly realized that it was going to take a lot longer than I had imagined. I needed to find a way to get bigger checks more quickly. Since joining AAC, I’ve been building a land-flipping business from my home office. Although I never thought I’d pick land flipping, after working backward from my vision, it made the most sense. THE VISION IS KEY! I became so clear-minded about what I wanted and how to get there. So I dove in and connected with great people like Brian Desmaris, who helped me when I first started in land, and people like Mason Miranda, who gave great business and networking advice when it came to how to utilize the AAC community and get the most out of it. The biggest asset in AAC is the people in it. If you connect with enough people and find ways to help each other, the possibilities are endless. I honestly can’t wait to see where I am in a year from now, two years from now, and so on. I’ve been doing land flipping while working my W-2 for about three months, and I have one deal fully completed and sold with a net profit of $22K (paid back the Action Academy cost in one deal). I also have four other deals in the pipeline that are being closed this month and next that are supposed to net about $102K in profit. Additionally, 25% of that $102K will be distributed to my capital partners, so I’ve made other people money in the process. HOW WE GOT TO THIS POINT SO QUICKLY, I DON’T KNOW! My only regret is that I didn’t join sooner. I knew about Action Academy for about two years before I joined. I joined actin academy on September 13th, 2025 and today is 1/30/26. I’d highly recommend Action Academy to anyone who wants to make a big, positive change in their life and is willing to put in the work required to do so.

Before joining Action Academy, I had only started companies and bought franchises with varying degrees of success. Now that I've been in AAC over a year now, I've gained clarity to seeing the light that the fastest way to an income that will support my lifestyle is through business acquisition. I also have learned to think bigger and go after companies with $500k-$1m in Ebitda. Along the journey, I've been able to connect with a ton of different people such as coaches & others following a similar journey which has given me confidence to keep pursuing my goals even when sometimes the odds seem against me. This is the key as entrepreneurship is hard, but it's way easier when you're surrounded by great minds rowing the boat in the same direction as you. The best part of the group is the connections and the in person live events. Zoom, texts, chats, slack, there's no replacement for sitting across the table from someone genuinely having an authentic discussion about life and happiness. I'd highly recommend AAC to anyone that is experiencing a lack of confidence in pursuing what they truly want to achieve. It's all in your head so get out of your own way, surround yourself with action takers and stop making excuses. Get into rooms like this one where your dreams are the norm and keep out the naysayers.
