Brutal truth if you want to get results…
Brutal truth if you want to get results in business If you're like me, you read reviews looking for any cracks in the foundation before buying something. Especially something as important as your business. I'm also going to have some fun poking at some of these recent negative reviews (terrible ethics, not enough support, and "surprise" terms). So far my experience has been really solid, with a few rough patches my AM helped me through. Read the whole thing and I'll explain. I had a business dependent on organic traffic and nearly went under when the leads dried up right around the time I had my 3rd kiddo. (10/10 would recommend, timing is everything.) I tried running paid ads myself and basically just lost money. So I signed up hoping to fix that. So to poke fun at the people complaining how hard it was to set up the funnel... yes, you're right, it's hard. Closers gave me a drag and drop funnel that includes basically everything you need to make the whole thing work, automations and all, you just modify it to your business. That alone was super nice to have. Rewriting the email automations to fit my offer was a pain in the ass. But 2 of my sales came from it this month. I just made $67,600 and hired another coach, my best month ever. So I guess if you hate money and hiring coaches, you can complain about having your husband work late a few nights clicking buttons that print money. Look at the upside. All poking aside, if you're already swamped you'll have to "push" a little your first time setting up a funnel, but once you do it once you kinda never have to change it. So if it feels really like a ton of extra work, it's worth it in the end. The support calls were extremely good for paid ads. At first it feels like "wow there's a lot of people here," but there's also 2-3 media buyers, tech guys, and coaches there to help, and these guys do REALLY good work. Here's where I have to go 5 stars. My account manager Tony did one call review with me and I closed a deal I otherwise wouldn't have enrolled. I get LOTS of these people, so it's a huge deal that I can close them now. So Tony's on my good side, for now. I saw a review nearby complaining about AM response time. Sometimes it feels like an emergency when you suck (remember... me... the guy who sucked at paid ads). Tony doesn't live in my neighborhood. Tony doesn't call me frantically every time my testosterone drops below 790. What Tony did was give me undivided attention and quality guidance. And here's the part I wish more people talked about. I'm a pretty skilled dude in some ways, but paid ads is new territory for me, and Tony calmed me down in the chaos. Having someone see around the corner for you is very valuable when you're in the thick of it. One thing to watch out for: ads can be tricky. I tried setting up a campaign on my own and made a mistake that probably cost me $5,000 because I clicked one button wrong. They would have caught it if I'd asked. So it's best to really attend the ads calls. You just need to follow the system. I chalk it up to baby brain, haha. I don't get some of the bad reviews below. Running a business is hard. Even the simple stuff is hard. I go to the group calls, I meet with my coach, and it's still hard. But they really do care, and they show it by sharing expertise when I'm confused or just doing things wrong. Theres some people complaining about getting "sucked in" and terms changing...it's very straightforward. You get a dedicated account manager, access to dozens of calls a week where you get personalized support, and recruiting services if that's included. (which I bought too and that's next). There are a few levels of support but they seem to customize the level to what you need on the sales call. So maybe just ask for clarity before handing over money if you're that turbo sensitive to terms. Straight up the timing of when I enrolled "hurt" financially. I had to make it work. In no way did I let that make it an emergency where I expected closers to fix it all . I now have some key skills I was missing and a foundation to really build from. So yeah, if you're looking for money to magically appear in your account while doing no work... not for you. But if you're cool with working through the parts you're not skilled at yet and really leaning on the team, it's the best place you can put your money and time.
