Real Results from Real Entrepreneurs

"Andrew, you did a phenomenal job on this PowerPoint. I've been using the same kind of formula for the last couple years. You took that PowerPoint, vamped it up, modernized it, and made it cleaner and better to understand. I actually used it in a presentation last week—we had more closings and conversions. I'd like to say it's because I did a better job, but it probably had more to do with what you did to make the message clearer. I really appreciate the job you did."

Greg Herlean, CEO, Horizon Trust

“The keynote Andrew helped me build changed everything. We used that same presentation for years—and it played a huge part in scaling our company to seven figures. It wasn’t just the content. It was the clarity, the flow, the way it landed. That keynote worked.”

Chris Naugle, America's #1 Money Mentor

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about Nickel City Learning Solutions and our marketing services.

What exactly is Authority Forge?

Authority Forge is a done-for-you authority-building platform. We create signature keynotes, professional podcasts, and speaker platforms that help entrepreneurs, authors, and personal brands stand out, get noticed, and land opportunities.

Who is this for?

This is for experts who are damn good at what they do—but aren’t being seen or heard. If you’re a founder, coach, speaker, author, or investor who wants to be recognized as the go-to in your niche, this was built for you.

How is this different from a typical agency or freelancer?

We don’t just make things look pretty—we build authority assets that convert. You’re getting strategic messaging, pro-level design, storytelling frameworks, and marketing infrastructure all in one place. Most agencies don’t know how to do that. We do.

Do I need to be an experienced speaker or podcaster?

Nope. We work with total beginners and seasoned pros. If you’ve got a real message and a clear offer, we’ll help you shape it, amplify it, and get it out there the right way.

How long does it take?

Timelines vary depending on the product. A keynote typically takes 4-6 weeks. Podcast setup is 2–4 weeks. We move fast—but we don’t cut corners.

What’s the investment?

Done-for-you services start at $5,000. Podcast production starts at $1,800/month. Green Room membership starts at $40/month. If you’re serious about growth, we’ll find the right fit.

What if I want to do multiple services?

Perfect. Many of our clients bundle keynote + podcast for maximum exposure. We’ll customize a plan that hits your goals and keeps things streamlined.

Do you offer coaching or is it all done-for-you?

Mostly done-for-you. But if you want to be more hands-on or have a team you want trained, we offer consulting options too. Ask about our Authority Builder intensives.

What kind of results can I expect?

Past clients have landed paid speaking gigs, doubled their consulting rates, and generated leads within weeks. Authority is a long game—but with the right foundation, the wins come fast.
