Sounds like he didn't make money, but he did convince ~50 people to work on a commission-only basis during a probationary period. Sounds like he started around August 2020.
"But no deals were ever finalised. By February 2021, not a single client contract had been signed. None of the Madbird staff had been paid a penny."
Somewhat interesting that across 50 people, some of whom quit fairly quickly, but others that stayed on...none were able to make a single sale in a 6 month period.
