Abu’s voice and honesty reminds us that no matter how successful and how dedicated your business we are, that at the end of the day what’s most valuable is the connection to ourself and our humanness. When I’m feeling overwhelmed and needing a reminder that it is my humanness and my intuition that makes me successful in my business, I turn on Permission to CEO. Thanks Abu for sharing with us!!!

Every podcast is worth more than a $$$. It’s really valuable. You’re genius mr Fofanah. Thanks a lot for the valuable knowledge

Every episode is money🤑Gems💎. I promise you’ll be like “I needed to hear that”. This dude and everyone he interviews is dopeAF. #goals

The culture needed these conversations! They’re digestible , informative & inviting which people in all chapters of their lives can learn something.🙌🏽

Abu!!! This is one of my favorite podcasts. I just love everything about it…from the topics, the guests, the gems dropped and the overall production. This podcast is the truth! The content is relatable and I love how you really dig into what makes each guest so great at what they do. You’re a great interviewer and storyteller. I can’t wait to listen to more episodes!

I honestly get excited when a new episode drops & can’t wait to learn something new. This is honestly a no fluff, all gems kind of platform with genuine conversations. I love how there are various topics and people from different walks of life. Abu has always been very great at what he does and this really sets the bar high, as he continues to educate the masses. I leave each episode with a new idea or spark of knowledge.

Honestly, Abu is absolutely amazing. I didn’t know how much I needed this podcast until I came across it. He is SO genuine, intriguing, brilliant and funny. He brings on the best and most talented guests to also share their story and advice. I’ve been sharing his podcast around and blasting it daily. Thanks a million for sharing your time and knowledge 🔥🔥🔥

Listened to both parts, loved the convo. Got a few really valuable perspectives! Can’t wait to test it out. Abu presents a wealth of knowledge & is already the ad-King, so a free podcast is an invaluable resource & investment to our success! Could we ask for more?!?! Thank you! -Holliwood

I have learned a lot and gained new perspectives to my approach to ads just listening to these. I actually seen your ads across many platforms before I found these so I am proof that your methods work lol. I have become a huge fan! Thank you so much for sharing!

Just finished up listening to Part 2 of organic vs. Paid ads. Now that we are in Q4, I am realizing I need to put in more effort into organic content creation to then be able to save on ad spend when I repurpose that content into an ad. It blew my mind hear the goat himself basically agree with what I had going on already. Going to go back and listen to all the previous episodes 🙌🏽

Ok. So this episode in 20 minutes give take, broke down the importance and understanding of ads organic and automated in relationship to treating yourself and business as a corporation. I purchased a small course a while back last year on FB Ads and now I feel un intimidated on approaching it and allowing it to teach me this skillset to apply it in various ways. Thank You Powered A.F.!!! Charlie

Wow! Abu has done it again with this one. If you want an MBA in business marketing without the Dartmouth price tag... you’re in the right place 😊

As a Power Your Launch student, I’ve been looking forward to this podcast. Every single interview that I’ve watched on IG is inundated with value, knowledge and so many GEMS! Emerging and seasoned entrepreneurs have lots to gain.

Another great episode! Loved hearing Renee’s story and really appreciated her honesty.

Abu, this podcast is absolutely amazing! I’m learning so much and am truly inspired by the ladies you’ve brought on as guest speakers so far. If I ever start my own business, just know that you had a large part to play in helping take that final leap of faith! Keep it going! Looking forward to all the episodes to come!

I love how Abu and his guest are so transparent. It helps me to really believe I can make it to where they are at. Amazing conversations taking place on each episode. I would recommend to any entrepreneur or someone considering entrepreneurship.

If you want to learn about all things ads, marketing from an authentic source you’re in the absolute right place. Get you head set and listen in to Abu the G.O.A.T. and his guests. You will not be disappointed.
