Access To Exclusive Student-Only Facebook Group – The Company shall maintain a Private Group that You will have access to as a member of the Program.

We reserve the right to make periodic updates to the Program, and you will have access to updated materials for as long as your payments as a member are up-to-date. In the rare situation where the Company, in its sole discretion, makes the difficult decision to close the Program in the middle of a  curriculum period, You will be given thirty (30) days’ notice of Program closure. Only Members who paid their membership fee in full in advance shall be entitled to a refund of the prorated portion of their membership fee. 

 

• Fees

In consideration of Your access to the Program, you agree to pay the following fees. This is a six month membership, the pricing is as follows: 

 

You may choose between two payment options:



A single payment of $1,497.00 due immediately and in full, or six (6) monthly payments of $297.00 with the first payment due immediately. 

 

If you opt for monthly payments, you shall be automatically charged $297.00 every month until the 6-month membership has elapsed. 

 

Those who opt for the single payment of $1,497.00, will also be entitled to the Pricing Perfection training masterclass. This bonus will be made available to you after the refund period. This bonus is non-transferable and has no cash value if not used.

If you do not do so, the Company shall immediately suspend your access to the Program, all Program elements, and any bonuses until payment is resolved. No delay in accessing the Program shall have any effect on the timing or amount of future payments due.

 

• Cancellation Policy 

Because You are given access to the Program, and the Program elements and materials are made available to you on an ongoing basis, you may only cancel your membership and obtain a refund by following the provisions of our Refund Policy, set forth below. 

 

Outside of the Refund Period, if You decide to cancel your participation in the Program, You will not be issued a refund for any remaining days or months of the Program after your cancellation. If You opted for a monthly payment schedule, you will have the option to accelerate and pay any remaining installments in full immediately, or maintain your monthly payment schedule until the 6-month membership has elapsed.

 

• Refund Policy 

We want You to be satisfied with your purchase, but we also know your success hinges on whether you put in the effort and the work necessary to succeed. We feel confident you will love the Program, so we do offer a limited money-back guarantee (“Refund Period”) on your purchase, but you must demonstrate that you have attempted to complete and apply the lessons. 

 

To qualify for a refund, please follow ALL these steps:

  • Request your money back no later than October 4th 2024 by midnight EST by emailing our Customer Support Team at [email protected]; and
  • In your email you must include the date of Your purchase, and the email and name associated with the purchase; and 
  • You must demonstrate that you attempted to implement the program without success. To meet this requirement, you must:
    • Watch all lessons included in the Systems Module and complete all of the worksheets and documents for each lesson
    • Send your completed work to our team for review; and 
    • Tell us why this course was not a good fit for you and your business needs. What did you expect that you did not get once inside the program?

 

We will NOT provide refunds for any request that is submitted after October 4th, 2024. After the Refund Period, all payments are non-refundable, and you are responsible for full payment of the fees for the program regardless of whether you complete the program.

 

Upon determining that you are entitled to a refund pursuant to this policy, the Company will promptly issue an instruction to its payment processor to issue the refund. The Company does not control its payment processor and will not be able to expedite any refunds.

 

Because there is extensive time, effort, preparation and care that goes into creating and/or providing my Programs, products, services and materials and because you have the ability to download and keep forever the materials available in Module 1, all refunds are less a $100 materials fee.
