Acquisition and Strategic Direction for Consulting.com

  • Consulting.com was acquired, including all IP and domain, for an amount between $1 million and $10 million.
  • The new owner highlighted the company’s legacy ($75–80M in historical revenue) and intentions to revive the brand rather than simply liquidate assets.
  • All prior customers of associated programs (e.g., Monetize, Apex) will receive free access to premium Consulting.com content (Consulting Accelerator and Uplevel Consulting).
  • The advisory firm’s B2B offering will be rebranded and operated under Consulting.com, targeting info businesses globally.

Client Event at Coworth Park (AFL Event)

  • A 3-day, fully-immersive event for approximately 80 clients was held, focused on sharing operational insights and networking.
  • The event included presentations, deep dives into business strategy (e.g., achieving 8-figure profitable events), and social activities (e.g., black tie dinner, clay pigeon shooting).
  • Executive team emphasized transparency, sharing step-by-step breakdowns of successful launches and answering all client questions, at times off-record for sensitive content.
  • Event provided a unique environment for high-caliber networking and knowledge-sharing, with testimonials emphasizing the unmatched value and authenticity versus other industry events.

Community Building, Product Philosophy, and Industry Positioning

  • A focus on elevating the info product and digital education space, positioning it as a respected alternative to traditional education.
  • Management is committed to transparency, ongoing product improvements, and continued customer value—even for customers from many years ago.
  • Price increases for advisory offerings will be implemented, as repeated client feedback suggests programs are undervalued for the results delivered.
  • Plans discussed for further ventures, including launching physical locations for eyewear business and exploring passion projects (e.g., a private club, possible stake in a football club).

Book Release – Alex's New Book

  • Announcement of a limited-edition book, planned for release in September or October, containing exclusive photos and diary passages reflecting three years of business and personal life.
  • The book will be a collector’s item and details will be shared as the waitlist and pre-orders open.

Client Testimonials and Event Feedback

  • Multiple clients attested to the transformative impact of both online and in-person advisory offerings, citing deep access, lack of ego, and actionable guidance as major differentiators.
  • Positive feedback noted on the community’s supportive culture and willingness of leadership to answer any business question directly.

Decisions

  • Integrate advisory firm under Consulting.com brand — Chosen for strategic expansion and leveraging the legacy and reach of the acquired company.
  • Raise program prices — Direct response to consistent client feedback indicating current offerings are undervalued for the results and access provided.

Open Questions / Follow-Ups

  • Further information and timing for Alex’s book release and how to join the waitlist.
