Grow your Audience

TLDR - I'm about to launch a 'Grow Your Audience' Course.

    Is there a refund guarantee if it doesn't work?

      What do you mean by 'doesn't work?'

      Like I mentioned in my post above "You need to start being consistent, it's like anything in life. If you want results you need to do it every day."

      Growing a large audience won't happen overnight, in a week or even after a month. It will take a few months of consistent work.

      So a 14-30 day refund doesn't make any sense.

      There is also a 1:1 phone call at the end of your first month, this is a way for me to get to know you, find out your goals and see if there is any way I can make the course better for you.

      Having said that I'm on a mission to help you grow your audience, not to take your money. If you are unsatisfied with the course, contact me in the first 7 days and I will give you a full refund.

      (You will lose access to our group and also your 1:1 phone call after the refund has been paid out.)

        I mean "doesn't produce a positive ROI". I'm already working consistently, drawing from both free and paid resources, and I'm selective when it comes to anything in this price range when paid up front. Alignment of incentives is a big deal.

        If you are unsatisfied with the course, contact me in the first 7 days and I will give you a full refund.

        Thanks! That's exactly the info I was looking for.

          No problem, just out of interest would you prefer a monthly payment option?

          1. 1

            Hey, @daviddel. I had to think about this a bit. I think the clearest way I can frame it is this: "I'll dump essentially unlimited amounts of money into growth as long as the ROI is positive".

            Paying a large lump sum up front puts a lot of risk on me. Even if the results are awful, you've already got the money!

            Growing a large audience won't happen overnight, in a week or even after a month. It will take a few months of consistent work.

            So a 14-30 day refund doesn't make any sense.

            It sounds like maybe a 120 day refund might make sense if you're confident enough in the value of your course. It could be really painful for you if people aren't satisfied with it, though.

            A monthly membership could be a better alignment of incentives because you'd get 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc payments if and only if the results were good.

            Maybe the best way is to build trust in smaller increments. Sell me something for $20 that makes me $100 and you can be sure I'll spend that $100 on something larger from you. If that goes well, I'll gladly put the vast majority those gains into your next product.

            1. 2

              I hear you and thank you for the constructive feedback.

              The 7 day refund is more than fair because you will be able to see the potential of the course and get an understanding of what exactly is involved.

              Out of all the 'grow your audience' courses I have reviewed I'm the only one it seems that has 'walked the walk' and not just 'talking the talk.'

              Lastly, the fact at the end of your first 30 days you get access to a 1:1 call with me, access to our community of like minded entrepreneurs to me is priceless.

    Looks interesting, congrats on the launch :)
