Advanced Mega Memory

A Nightingale-Conant Corporation product
Reviewed by Kellie Fowler


Founded in 1960 by Lloyd Conant (direct mail expert and fulfillment business owner) and Earl Nightingale (well-known motivational radio talk host), the Nightingale-Conant Corporation is the world’s largest producer of self-improvement audio products and programs. In its Advanced Mega Memory course, Nightingale-Conant utilizes six double-sided audiocassette tapes and an hour-long video to deliver the most comprehensive course on long-term memory improvement I have ever seen.

This course also includes a valuable workbook packed with useful exercises that help to illustrate and reinforce the lessons presented on the tapes, with important definitions and concepts highlighted throughout.

Designed by Kevin Trudeau, founder of the American Memory Institute and an authority on memory improvement training, this course is admittedly lengthy and involved, but well worth the time and commitment required to see it through to the end. In fact, I can honestly say that upon completing the course, I easily remembered long numbers and previously hard-to-remember names. While I have not tried to utilize my newly- learned skills to become a “card sharp,” a skill the course promises for all those who play blackjack, bridge or poker, I have used Trudeau’s techniques to remember important day-to-day information, including information and events that are crucial to my well-being and the well-being of my growing business.

Again, I used the audiocassette tapes primarily in my car, during commutes and errand running. I then put the information and techniques detailed on the tapes to use in the appropriate lessons outlined in the workbook. Often times, a day or even two would lapse between hearing the tapes and completing the related exercises in the workbook (perhaps this was my own personal test of memory improvement). As I progressed through the course, this became easier and easier, eventually removing all doubt I had about this product with outstanding claims. You see, as a journalist, I am generally skeptical of products such as this one. Even so, this product replaced my tough armor of skepticism with die-hard belief.

Since using Nightingale-Conant’s Advanced Mega Memory, I have enjoyed working the room at crowded events and reveled in the delight that comes with remembering names with little effort. I have also enjoyed applying these useful techniques to my business, instantly improving my memory recall in almost every single area.

In summary, I strongly recommend this product. Do not shy away from it because of its length or seemingly demanding involvement. Instead, take it one tape at a time and you will very quickly start seeing results. I relied on these results to act as a motivator for completing the next tape or segment in the workbook with little self-resistance. And, before I knew it, I was looking forward to the next tape and to mastering the skills and techniques detailed by Trudeau.
