Susan, this is wonderful to read. Thank you for sharing such strong words about Start At The Top and the Industry Rockstar experience. It means a lot to hear that the strategies felt current, the delivery felt world class, and the platform made the training fun and engaging. Your note about high-integrity, service-oriented entrepreneurship and bringing global dreams into reality really captures the mission behind this work. Alessia and I are grateful you were part of the experience, and our team appreciates your energy and support. - Industry Rockstar

I highly recommend this program for anyone who wants to focus on practical AI business applications rather than technical coding. The training is well-structured, with clear learning paths that make it easy to follow and apply what you're learning. One of the program's greatest strengths is the members-only Facebook community. The community is highly supportive, and members are quick to share insights, success strategies, and helpful advice. In many cases, questions are answered by fellow members before the support team even has a chance to respond. Another aspect I appreciate is the frequent updates on AI tools, trends, and industry developments. The content stays relevant in a rapidly evolving field, which is extremely valuable. Since joining the program, I have become much more confident discussing AI tools, use cases, and business applications. As someone who values structure, I particularly appreciate how the course is organized. The material is well laid out, available on demand, and allows you to learn at your own pace. That said, success in the program requires self-discipline and initiative. The resources and guidance are there, but you must be willing to take ownership of your learning and implementation. Overall, I have no regrets about the investment I made in this course and would recommend it to anyone serious about building practical AI knowledge and consulting skills. Giving a 4-Star because, there is always room for improvement.

Mary, thank you for such a thoughtful review. We truly appreciate your words about “practical AI applications” and helping businesses “leverage AI for real-world results.” It means a lot to hear that the training is “well-structured,” with “clear learning paths” that make it “easy to follow and apply what you’re learning.” We also really appreciate you calling the members-only Facebook community “one of the program’s greatest strengths.” A community that is “highly supportive,” where members are “quick to share insights, success strategies, and helpful advice,” is something very special, and it is the value, care, and love poured into that community that makes it so powerful. In many places online, especially around AI, there is no shortage of noise, tips, tricks, and technical talk. What is rare is a place where people can step into a community like this and find real support, real insight, and real encouragement. Thank you as well for recognizing the “frequent updates on AI tools, trends, and industry developments” and that the content “stays relevant in a rapidly evolving field,” which is “extremely valuable.” That is exactly what we strive for: helping people stay current, stay practical, and stay on the front edge of a field that keeps changing fast. We also appreciate hearing that since joining the program, you have become “much more confident discussing AI tools, use cases, and business applications.” And yes, we fully agree with your point that success in the program requires “self-discipline and initiative.” The “resources and guidance are there,” but people do have to be willing to “take ownership of your learning and implementation.” Honestly, that is true in anything. Success in any training, school, course, or business requires self-discipline and initiative, and that is exactly why the program is built the way it is. Thank you again for sharing that you have “no regrets about the investment” and would recommend it to anyone serious about “building practical AI knowledge and consulting skills.” We are grateful to have you with us. * Industry Rockstar

I have been in Kane and Alessia's world for over three years. I keep coming back, not because I need to. Because I want to. I found Industry Rockstar in 2023 through Eben Pagan, signed up for the first AI-Assisted Entrepreneur Sprint, and have attended every one since. I have gone through other programs, certifications, and trainings. Not once did it feel like a purchase. It felt like choosing the right room. The quality is unlike anything I have seen in over twenty years of training and education across multiple countries. They over-deliver, and that is not a sales line, it is just true. There is always more than what was promised. Always something that lands deeper than expected. But honestly, the slides and the frameworks, as good as they are, are not why I keep showing up. It is what happens between the lines. The abundance mindset Kane and Alessia operate from is not something they only talk about. It is something they live, visibly, in how they show up, what they give, and how they treat every person in the room. After three years, they have become my mentors, not just in business, but in how I think about life. You do not just learn from them. You absorb something that changes how you move through the world. That is not a course result. That is a very rare thing. Yulia Mamaeva

Yulia, thank you for writing this with so much heart. The fact that you found Industry Rockstar through Eben Pagan in 2023, joined the first AI-Assisted Entrepreneur Sprint, and have kept coming back because you want to says a great deal. Alessia and I do not take lightly what you shared about this feeling like choosing the right room, not just making a purchase. That is exactly the kind of environment we want to create: practical training, deep frameworks, and a room where people feel expanded by the way they are treated and supported. Your words about mentorship, abundance, and how this has shaped the way you move through the world mean a lot. - Industry Rockstar
Ritchie H.
Five stars for Kane, Alessia, and the Industry Rockstar team. Start at the Top is a masterclass in business acceleration. It cuts straight through the noise and provides a structured, step-by-step roadmap for scaling revenue and leveraging modern tools. The training is fast-paced but exceptionally well-structured, making it easy to apply to your own business right away. An absolute must-attend for serious entrepreneurs.
Response from Industry RockstarJun 20, 2026
Ritchie, thank you for this. It means a lot to hear Start at the Top felt highly practical, immediately useful, and structured in a way serious entrepreneurs can apply right away. Cutting through the noise and giving people a clear roadmap for business acceleration is exactly what this training is designed to do. Alessia, our team, and I appreciate the five stars and the strong recommendation. - Industry Rockstar

I consistently invest in my learning and development. Out of all the programs I have invested in over the years, those offered by Industry Rockstar have been among the most impactful, helping me understand what it takes to become an entrepreneur and providing the guidance and tools to succeed. Kane and Alessia are deeply knowledgeable and have created one of the best communities I have had the privilege to be part of. Their team is also wonderful! They are organized, accessible and very supportive. I am truly grateful for Industry Rockstar!

Alessia and I are grateful for your kind words about the community and our team. We’re truly glad to have you with us. - Industry Rockstar
Lindsey F.
I am about a month into the AI Assisted CMO Certification course. I am enjoying it so far. A few honest pieces: 1. A lot of the first sessions are very foundational / basic marketing for a course for CMOs, but I understand they're serving the full breadth of their cohorts. Be prepared for the full first month going over basic funnels, lifecycles, ICP/Persona, AI technology, and basic marketing concepts. 2. There are a decent amount of "Bonus" sessions, so be prepared to commit a lot of time to this certification if you're looking to get your full value's worth. 3. They're very strict on the Facebook group when it comes to connecting on LinkedIn, but I understand it's to keep the quality of the group clean. I would like to keep in contact with the cohort to cheer them on and occasionally connect on the sessions. This was a big reason why I signed up as I believe learning with a strong community is everything. 4. There are upsells in the material, which again, we understand is necessary for any course-related markets to grow, but don't be shocked if you spend at least one session that is an upsell to their bigger packages. 5. The Facebook group is not very user-friendly or organized. A wiki section could help us all better access information. I think the use of pinned posts could keep it a lot more useful for day-to-day use. Even creating a separate space for cohorts to connect on a person-to-person level would be great to have. 6. They do not provide a summary of the event after attendance, so if you are trying to keep clean notes, you're kind of on your own. 7. Most of the reminder emails for the day's sessions link to a registration page instead of the direct link to the cast / live event, which doesn't seem aligned with a pre-paid experience. Overall, this is a pretty powerful event with some technical aspects that could use a little more refinement. They have great presenters and experts, and a lot of value can be taken from even the stories that are shared. I think for the price, it's pretty worthwhile.
Response from Industry RockstarJun 20, 2026
Lindsey, thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed review and for sharing both what you are “enjoying so far” and what you feel could be stronger. We genuinely appreciate that, especially because you still called this “a pretty powerful event,” said there are “great presenters and experts,” and shared that “a lot of value can be taken from even the stories that are shared.” We also appreciate you saying that “for the price, it’s pretty worthwhile.” You are right that some of the first sessions can feel “very foundational / basic marketing” if someone is coming in with more experience. What we have found over the years is that many people try to build on a shaky foundation, and the things that sound familiar at first often become the very things that unlock stronger implementation later. That is why we reinforce funnels, lifecycles, ICP / Persona, AI technology, and core marketing concepts so people are not just learning tactics, but building on the right structure underneath them. You also mentioned the “Bonus” sessions and the time commitment involved if someone wants to get “your full value’s worth.” That is fair, and it is by design. We continuously add value, and many students find there are resources, bonuses, and materials already available to them that they have not fully explored yet. We appreciate your understanding that we are “very strict on the Facebook group” in order to “keep the quality of the group clean.” Protecting the quality of the group matters to us. We know some people want to connect more freely on LinkedIn or promote themselves more directly, but we have found that keeping the space clean, focused, and safe creates a better environment for real learning and real relationships. And we agree with you that “learning with a strong community is everything.” On the point about “upsells in the material,” we do want to clarify something for you and for anyone reading this. Once you purchase a course, there are no upsells inside that course for the course itself. You have lifetime access to what you bought, lifetime access to the replays, and as we continue updating the training to keep pace with the newest technology, students receive access to future advancements as well. What you may be seeing are invitations to invest in other trainings, other courses, or mentorship opportunities. Those are separate opportunities, not upsells tied to your original purchase. You also mentioned that the Facebook group is “not very user-friendly or organized” and that “a wiki section” or more pinned guidance could make it “a lot more useful for day-to-day use.” That is thoughtful feedback, and we appreciate it. At the same time, we do find that Facebook is still the easiest and most familiar platform for most people to access quickly, and we intentionally use it as a place for community, support, and connection. On your note that “they do not provide a summary of the event after attendance” and that if you are trying to keep “clean notes,” you are “kind of on your own,” we want to offer some clarity there too. We do not provide transcripts or done-for-you summaries as a standard handout because part of what we teach is ownership, implementation, and the ability to apply what you are learning. You do, however, have lifetime access to the replays and resources throughout the program designed to help you move your business forward. Thank you again, Lindsey, for such a candid and thoughtful review. We sincerely appreciate your recognition of the “great presenters and experts,” the “strong community,” and the fact that this is “a pretty powerful event.” Your feedback is valuable, and we are grateful you took the time to share it. * Industry Rockstar
Dimple S.
Absolutely — here’s a polished version that keeps your enthusiasm, strengthens the message, and connects better to your mission: **Polished Feedback/Testimonial** The Industrial Kickstart Business AI training was an amazing, interactive, and high-quality experience — truly as engaging as attending in person. Kane is an excellent presenter who brings energy, clarity, and encouragement throughout the program. The course is especially valuable for anyone thinking about starting their own business. When many people may say, “Don’t do it,” Industrial Rockstar reminds you that **you can** — and gives you the support, structure, and confidence to work on your dream. I appreciated the practical **Business 1-2-3 framework**, combined with the latest AI technology and real-world business examples. The mix of business strategy, technology, testimonials, and interactive sessions made the training inspiring, practical, and memorable. Even the music helped keep the energy high! This program gave me motivation and tools I can use to up-level my AI consulting work, especially as I support NGOs and environmental organizations in solving their pain points and creating greater impact. **Shorter Mission-Aligned Version** Industrial Kickstart Business AI was an inspiring and practical training experience that gave me the confidence, structure, and AI-powered tools to grow my business vision. The program combines business strategy, technology, real examples, and powerful encouragement in a way that feels interactive, high-quality, and deeply motivating. I’m excited to apply what I learned to strengthen my AI consulting work and help NGOs and environmental organizations solve meaningful challenges.

Dimple, thank you for this thoughtful review. We really appreciated your “polished version that keeps your enthusiasm, strengthens the message, and connects better to your mission.” We also loved seeing both your “Polished Feedback/Testimonial” and your “Shorter Mission-Aligned Version” show up here — it gave us a little behind-the-scenes peek at your process, and honestly, we’ve all had a moment like that. Your words about an “amazing, interactive, and high-quality experience,” an “engaging” program, and Kane bringing “energy, clarity, and encouragement” throughout the program mean a lot. We also appreciate you highlighting the “practical Business 1-2-3 framework,” the mix of “business strategy, technology, real examples,” and the “support, structure, and confidence” to work on your dream. That sure sounds like a five-star kind of review to us. If you’d like, Trustpilot may let you edit this so you can post the final version you meant to share. And while you’re in there, if that missing star was just caught in the copy-and-paste process, we certainly wouldn’t argue with it. Thank you again for the heart, thought, and mission behind your words. * Industry Rockstar
