I've been running my own business since 2012. I wish I'd had the ability to access Max and his coaching team sooner. Within a month or so of coaching I've made huge leaps and bounds in my own business.
Everything is very clearly laid out, it's all process driven, and any issues are resolved by the coaches.
Before I felt like I was on my own trying to figure everything out. The FBM course feels like it's brought everything into focus. Honestly starting on this course is the best thing I've done for my business.

IT CHANGED MY LIFE
I didn't know anything about business.
The first business that I started failed because I was clueless about what I was doing. Clickfunnels page with bad copy and burning money with ineffective Ads. It was destined to fail and it failed. Looking back to it with the knowledge I have now, I was just playing around.
After joining, you'll have 12 modules to complete. Week after week you'll have to do your exercises and post the results in the Facebook Group. Feedback will be given by the coaches to your answers. Slowly but surely the results of those exercises build your foundation which is going to serve as your business in Module 9/10.
The modules itself are good for sure, but the highlight are the live calls. Even if you're just starting in the first modules, the calls are giving out so much value. You can learn so much from the problems, mistakes of others and the answers from the coaches that, if you're smart enough, will spare you from doing the same mistakes. I've completed a whole notebook with notes since Day 1, that's how much value I've gotten out of them. Even when I didn't have any questions, it is still worth it to join the calls. The energy those calls have, especially the calls with Max, have been so influential to me. You're the average of the 5 people you surround yourself with and FBM is certainly the environment that I needed. All in all, the people around me have mentioned that they feel a change in my confidence and I have to thank FBM for that.
I can't understand what or why other reviews claimed that they're not getting tailored advice. You are building a business, people cannot expect others to give them the answers on a silver plate. Business owners are problem solvers, which is why people should try to think about solutions on their own and then ask for advice with possible solutions. I've never gotten generic advice, but I've also spoken up freely to the coaches in the calls when I believe that something might not work in my situation due to RATIONAL reasons.
The only thing that I can criticize, which is also just my PERSONAL opinion, is the "everyone has a skill they can monetize" part. I stay behind my opinion that it only makes sense if you have an expertise, if you can solve a big enough pain point or if you're so good at something that you'll be able to penetrate the market with your skill. Now, don't get me wrong on this part. I'm not saying that you should already have a business. What I'm saying is that you should be able to provide value to potential customers in the Niche that you want to work in.
To summarize everything:
It is impossible to not get results if you have the expertise that you want to monetize and if you have the willpower to execute. Everything necessary to build a business will be taught in FBM. I've already closed for 2.000€ in my second sales call just 6 days after I got kicked in the ass by Max with a wake-up call to myself AND I was one of the slower ones to close due to still working 9-5.
I'm excited about the future that is still awaiting me, which is just repeating the working process over and over again.

From Dabbler to Business Owner
My issue coming in was that I was a notorious niche hopper. I'm telling you I couldn't sit still: virtual assistant agency, crypto, digital marketing agency...ANY time that I ran into the slightest inconvenience I would give up. I took other online courses (I even torrented some of the best) but nothing really gave me any results.
FBM is different though. The value of FBM isn't all the fancy digital videos, it's about implementable advice. That's what made my niche different than all the others. The live calls, Facebook group, the coaches, the bootcamps, that's what sets this apart from other things I've tried.
They gave me the guidance needed to pick my niche for good as well as give me guidance to be able to position myself in a way that the market responds.
They don't give you all the answers, but that's not the point. A business owner doesn't ask for the answers. He finds them. That's how I think now. I think for myself. I act for myself and for the good of my business. I can't thank Max and all his amazing coaches enough for their contribution to my life. I'm not going to stop here. Thank you all.

I can't thank Max enough
I can't thank Max enough. I'm truly grateful for the FBM program. I was able to quit my 9-5 and do something I'm passionate about. Max and his team are God sent. The support they provide is unreal. I highly recommend the FBM program to anyone who wants to break free from the crappy cubicle life.

FBM is life changing
FBM is life changing. It's the best online business & entrepreneur program out there because it's 100% practical, step by step, so that you feel like it's easy to follow & you are always progressing. I recently had my sales lessons & in my first week of selling, I made over 9k in sales. This wasn't something I'd imagined possible before the program. And especially not for teaching Spanish, which I love to do, but I only figured was a low hourly wage job. Now I get to work doing something I enjoy, potentially make more money than ever before, & live in Latin America which was always my goal, but never possible until now because I didn't know how to make money online. I know so little about technology, SEO, websites, etc, that it speaks volumes that I can earn a living online focusing on my craft & sales, without the stress of learning those technical things. This program is revolutionary, & I look forward to continuing to see how much more is possible. Max is not just inspiring in his own story, but he and his coaching team are some of the best teachers, mentors, & leaders. Thanks guys....GG!

Best investment I have ever made!
Best investment I have ever made!! Recently made my first close for 1000€. The value and the knowledge you get is unimaginable! I have learnt so many things and funnily enough I recently met someone who is “self-made entrepreneur” and he said to me “it took me 6 years to get my first money from my business”. Why lose your time? Isn’t it precious for you enough? So thankful to be in FBM and can’t be grateful enough for all these amazing coaches. Even though they have so many clients It just feels that they are right beside you in the whole journey to success guiding you step by step.

FBM changed my whole life and mindset !
FBM really helped me find a way to earn money with my passion! Now I know how to Sale, generate new Leads, coach people. My first close felt amazing! It really changed my view on money and life! My whole mindset changed enormously and I can't describe it in words how my life went from a downwards spiral to an upwards spiral! I'm really looking forward for my future and learning new skills and helping 100+ of new clients living a better life. If you have a good expertise in some area of life and you can help other people reach the same goals then I would recommend you to join FBM and give it a try! In the end its for free because you can generate an unlimited amount of money if you keep executing what the program and the coaches tell you. And the best thing is that you can work from anywhere in the world and you have no boss. This could open you a whole new experience and opportunity in life and your whole life could turn 180 degrees. Hit me up if you made your decision and tell me how it changed your life.
Don't wait for the perfect moment! Because there is no perfect moment to start! Start now and don't waste your time and your potential!
I write these lines because I want to help you because FBM helped me and 1000 of others.
