I was contacted by Peter Kloepfer and Todd Lee about their 6month - Walk thru mentoring(coaching) program to build a site.
They used as reference for their work "1 Million Visitors", "Free Ad Guru", "Money Home" and Stephan Ducharme.
They would provide 1hr coaching seassions for 12 weeks(most were 1/2 hr. to 45min.)and access 5 days a week (they meant the online help where it takes up to 24+ hours to respond), also would provide all the software and tools(not true -did not receive tools to obtain correct html for all browser-in fact it was never metioned nor the Merchant Account that I had to buy.
I was also told the coach would walk me through marketing and advertising (it is only in their written material - listing more companies I can buy from.)
I was told I would have my first sale in 2/3 weeks - when I chose the type of business I wanted to develop I was not told any different - that it would take much longer. Many weeks were spent on research alone.
When I thought my site was completed enough to submit to search engines I discovered it could not be read in most browsers - I needed to have another type of html for that - that was going to cost more again. I had used the free tool my coach suggested but apparantely it was not good enough.
By now my coaching sessions were over so I had no coach. When I tried to access the written lessons I was told I needed another code from my coach. I took two weeks for hime to respond and low and behold I no longer needed one.
The product catalog from the merchant account is not user friendly. At this point I either buy a program to try to redesign my site with the proper html or I pay aother company to redesign my site so it will really become profitable and not remain a loss.
As it is this site will never be profitable and my coach could care less, and I suppose no one else at the company does as they have moved and not notified anyone.
The only thing I have for all the money I paid is a site that is not worth all my effort, written material on their site and references to companies that I can buy more from.
I also have nothing good to say about Empire Marketing Systems, Intercation, WebPower Pac, WebPro Coach, Money Home, Stephan Durcharme, 1 Million Visitors, Free Ad Guru, or Maikel Bailey,
In summary:
Guaranteed I would recoup my investment in 6 months, that I would be walked through step X step: site development; they would evaluate site(never done); Linking site(never mentioned); aggressive marketing tools(only in printed materials where they try to sell you more); marketing strategies and immediate marketing (I was given a coupon to submiit by April, but site wasn't ready )
