Product name: Experts Academy

Program owner: Brendon Buchard

Website: www.expertsacademy.com

Price: $1,997

Overall rank: 60 out of 100

Verdict: Recommended? Yes and No

Final verdict: There are much better alternatives out there

 

Brendon Buchard is a very well known internet marketer who has made millions of dollars online and his name stands close to such names as Pat Flynn, Mark Dillard, Tony Robbins, Frank Kern and some other names.

Brendon is an honest guy making real money and he is definitely very different from many other fake millionaires that are selling their make money courses while they can’t make any money themselves.

Brendon teaches folks how to build an online business (empire) based on your personal interests.

The idea of his course is great and in fact achieving success in life hugely depends on how passionate you are about what you do.

The only question is: Is it really worth paying such a high price for Brendon’s course?

Keep reading my review of the Experts Academy and I will explain in details all you need to know about this course so you can make a decision.

Pros of Experts Academy

  • You can benefit from Brendon’s experience
  • Learn how to build your internet income empire
  • Money back guarantee

Cons of Experts Academy

  • Extremely expensive
  • Limited support (by email only)
  • Brendon’s teachings are not easy to implement, especially modules that require an ability to speak in public

 

What you should know about Brendon’s Expert Academy before investing $1,997

There are several videos on Brendon’s website and once you’ve landed on his page you can watch the videos to get an idea of what you can expect from his program.

I have to admit that Brendon is an excellent speaker and really knows what he is talking about.

Most of his talk is just a motivational material and he is an expert in motivating people. Basically

Brendon teaches you how to create your own information product and promote it through different ways such as physical DVDs, seminars, downloads, webinars, PDF guides, etc.

There are even more ways to do it. His course reminds me of another course called “The Super product” of Alex Jeffreys. He also teaches how to interview top marketers and create information product and then sell it using different marketing techniques.

All I can say is that the idea of selling information product is not new at all. The question is: Can you create such a product? and Can you market it successfully? It’s not easy at all.

Many people fail at it. I know that many people have bought Brendon’s course and failed to earn even $1.

I always try to help my visitors by sharing my experience with different products and I do my best to help them avoid obvious scams or products/programs that fail to deliver what they claim to.

From my experience I can tell that even if you buy the best course available on the internet from someone who is making millions of dollars, it doesn’t mean that after buying it you will be making money too, not to mention millions of dollars.

 

Experts-Academy-course

 

Brendon Buchard a private coach?

Brendon is the guy who knows what he is talking about and after watching his videos you will definitely want to achieve something big. His product is definitely not a waste of time and if used by someone who has the right mindset they will definitely achieve their goals.

BUT my main issue with this product is that his product is really overpriced. I think you agree that paying for the course that will cost you $1,997 is not affordable for most people.

By the way, Brendon doesn’t give any guarantee that after buying his course you will be a millionaire.

He is not going to become your personal coach. I would pay such a high price only to someone who is willing to personally coach me, but it’s not the case here.

You can contact him by email only which is not a big deal at all. I’ve recently paid $400 for a CPA course and for an additional $200 I could get a private access to a CPA expert who is making millions of dollars per year. In case with Brendon, it’s too expensive and not so effective.

 

Does Brendon Buchard give you any guarantee?

I really respect Brendon for being transparent and honest with his people. On his website he clearly says that he doesn’t give any guarantees that you will be successful online after buying his course.

Brendon-disclaimer

 

I think it means a lot. Brendon is an honest guy and doesn’t deceive folks. But anyway, his product is extremely expensive and I suggest that you ask yourself a simple question:

Are you ready to pay $2000 to someone who he is not going to become your personal coach and who asks you to pay such a high price for a course that you can get for a much lower price elsewhere on the internet?

 

What you can expect from Brendon

I have a good experience in internet marketing and trust me I know how it works and how to make money online and I’m actually making money from my websites. I know how top internet marketers make money.

They build their email list and then market many different products to that list and this way they make millions of dollars per year. The truth though is that most of their customers don’t make even a penny online.

I’m pretty sure that after buying Brendon’s main course for $2000 you will have to buy some other products and invest even more money in your “empire”. This is the way they make so much money. Remember that.

 

How to start with Brendon on the right foot

If you still firm in your decision and want to buy Brendon’s product I suggest that you start first with his free products. On his website you can get free copies of:

 

brendon-burchard-books

 

  • The Motivation Manifesto
  • 9 Declarations to Claim Your Personal Power
  • The Charge
  • Activating the 10 Human Drives that Make You Feel Alive
  • The Millionaire Messenger

Make a Difference and a Fortune Sharing Your Advice

The Millionaire Messenger is the main ebook that will reveal Brendon’s 10-step plan on how to make a solid income online through creating information product.

Also, you can watch several videos on his website that will allow you to understand what you can expect from Brendon. I’m sure it’s the wisest way instead of investing $1,997 in his Experts Academy.

 

Brendon’s courses

On his website http://brendon.mykajabi.com you can buy his courses:

  • The 10 Human Drives – $49
  • The Influence Course – $297
  • The Business Accelerator – $297
  • The Success Accelerator – $29 per month
  • Secrets of the Top 2% – $497
  • The Confidence Course – $97
  • The Achievement Accelerator – 3 monthly payments of $197
  • High Performance Academy – 3 monthly payments of $369

As you can see, you need to invest a LOT OF MONEY in order to be successful online with Brendon. I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready for that.

And as I told above, there are much better alternatives and one such program is Wealthy Affiliate that helped me start making money online without investing the amount of money Brendon asks you to pay.

My recommended program will cost you $536 per year which includes a top notch training, websites, tools and support.

And I forgot to mention live chat available 24 hours a day. And plus you get access to real experts that are making thousands of dollars online.

 

Passion is the key to your success

As for motivational speeches, there are tons of material online. I suggest that you watch this video to understand what Brendon wants you to understand.

This video is really great and I strongly recommend to watch it. It’s all about being passionate about what you do in order to be successful online.

 

Can Brendon really help you become a millionaire?

On Brendon’s website you can watch a video that shows you people who have bought his course and made thousands of dollars online after applying the knowledge. But what does it mean to you?

If some of his customers are happy with his product and made thousands of dollars, it doesn’t mean that you will achieve the same success.

Many people who have purchased his course have made zero. Here is a complaint that I came across on the web. This guy is not happy at all and I’m sure there are many people like him who invested $2000 and made zero.

 

Experts-academy-negative-feedback

 

This reminds us of Brendon’s disclaimer in which he says that he doesn’t guarantee any results to anyone. And this reminds us of programs that are much cheaper than Brendon’s course.

 

Experts Academy training

Brendon’s course consists of several modules:

  • Authors section
  • Speakers section
  • Seminars section
  • Online Marketing section
  • Life/biz coaching section
  • Q&A/Coaching calls with Brendon

 

experts-academy-members-area

 

Brendon’s Marketing Mastery online training consists of 5 week DVD series. The course covers 5 business models:

  • An online email marketing sequence that made Brendon 7 figures
  • A book proposal that made over $500,000 in advances from publishers
  • A speaking campaign used to book $10,000-$25,000 keynote speeches
  • A seminar marketing campaign teaching how to sell $5,000 workshops
  • A coaching questionnaire used for $45,000 year coaching clients
  • Online 5 week email coaching /online course

 

  • Marketing strategy planning session
  • The Experts Academy Promotional Partnership Crash Course – 4-week online modules ( This course is especially difficult to implement)
  • Free ticket to Experts Academy Live

Brendon also provides you with various tools that will make your job easier. By tools I mean templates, emails, pdf’s, etc).

 

Is Brendon’s course really a super course?

Brendon’s course is extremely expensive as I mentioned it above. In fact, it teaches you how to build your online empire based on your passion which is great.

But there is no need to pay so much money for the course. Here is my article about how to turn your passion into a business.

Brendon doesn’t teach you any secret strategies that other top marketers don’t know. There is no secret here. Success online comes thanks to implementing certain steps and strategies.

 

Requirements:

  • Passion
  • Building a website
  • Creating content

 

Strategies:

  • SEO
  • Email marketing
  • Youtube
  • Social media
  • Paid traffic
  • Outreach

 

You can learn all this for a much lower price elsewhere. The program that I’ve mentioned above can teach you all this and even more.

There is no need to pay thousands of dollars, especially when you don’t know if you can achieve any success with it.

I know many people who have invested thousands of dollars in programs and made zero. That’s why I honestly recommend you to start with a program that is much cheaper and see how you can succeed with it first and then you can think of investing in products like Experts Academy.

The fact that Brendon has generated millions of dollars through email marketing is not a secret at all. I know this fact too and I use this method like many others do.

But very few people can achieve success with email marketing because it requires months and even years before you can build a responsive list consisting of people that trust you.

Building trust is essential for your business. Remember that. Any top internet marketer will tell you this simple truth: “Money is in the list”. So, nothing new here.

And even this (email marketing) alone will cost you another $250 per year.

 

10-Essentials

Brendon’s 10 essential rules for success:

  • Choose a subject
  • Tell a story
  • Choose your strategy
  • Create your product
  • Gain leads and trust
  • Gain social presence
  • Build a system&structure
  • Gain self-confidence
  • Self-discipline
  • Service mindset

Again, you can learn all this inside my recommended program that is much cheaper and in fact I owe to this program for my success. The same info at a more affordable price.

 

My final recommendation

Brendon’s Experts Academy is a good program, but it’s extremely expensive and that’s why it’s not recommended to everyone.

I believe that before investing so much money in this high ticket item you would better try my recommended program first.

This will allow you to understand what internet marketing is all about and how to make money online. And I forgot to mention that my program is free to try.

 

Final glance at Experts Academy

  • You can benefit from Brendon’s experience
  • Learn how to build your internet income empire
  • Extremely expensive
  • Money back guarantee
  • Limited support (by email only)
  • Brendon’s teachings are difficult to implement, especially modules that require an ability to speak in public

    Hi your review on expert academy is very helpful, although I have never heard about the program before but your post shows honest review and I have learnt from your post, it is very expensive than wealthy affiliate. As a new user in affiliate business to afford the price of expert academy is not easy. 

    • Adam says:

      I suppose you found it when browsing my website. This program is not bad but by far not the best one out there. If you want something more worthwhile see the top menu of my site. I have two recommended programs. I believe they will help you in a much better way.

  2. Shannon says:

    Thank you for giving the low down of Brendon Burchard’s Experts Academy. I agree with you, he is an excellent speaker and a heck of a motivator. After listening to him speak, I have to admit I was all but sold on buying half of the training programs he has to offer – If only I had the money to invest!

    The problem isn’t only that his programs are very expensive however. After really getting into the details of his trainings, it almost appears as if his very high priced Experts Academy is really just another advertisement for all his other training courses. Not to mention, following his business models will cost more money for all the tools involved in setting up a business.

    I’m so glad I held my compulsion at bay and checked around before jumping in to purchase this course. Instead I will first check out some of the cheaper training options. Wealthy Affiliate sounds like a great alternative that will give me much more for my money. Thanks so much for explaining it all further!

    • Adam says:

      Brendon is really a good speaker but his course is not for everyone and it’s very pricey. I also received a negative comment from a real user of Experts Academy which you can see in this comment thread. I don’t mean Brendon is a scammer. Not at all. Just one should be careful with this program.

  3. WisdomAgreements says:

    Last night, I had a terrible, unpleasant experience with productivity guru, Brendon Burchard.
    On January 29th, he sent out an email saying – You all loved transformation week so much that we’ve decided to share my ENTIRE Wellness Master Class with you at NO COST over the next 10 days. I’m sharing the ENTIRE course via my podcast as well as via video on this page. But fair warning: Each episode is only up for 72 hours, so enjoy it now.
    Fast forward to yesterday, no new email sent out about Day 3, it was still locked, no Day 3 on the podcast! As I researched further into it, I found out that he shared a broken link to the class (because you had to sign up within 48 hours – if you miss out on the window of time, you have to pay $99 for the class) and he wanted to make sure that people missed that window of opportunity. One person said that it worked if they clicked “Back To Home” and when someone complained, he shared a 2nd link and there was a third, link, when people still didn’t have access to Day 3. People thought they signed up, but it didn’t take. I called them out on it and last night, the link was fixed within 15 minutes, and the podcasts and videos are up this morning, after I told them I was contacting the attorney general. Last night I took a photo at 8:23 and only Day 1 and 2 were up for the podcasts. And 9:42 they deleted Day 1 podcast. I got an email in between those times at 8:29, referring me to another website. They completely blew me off. At 9:38 I told them I was contacting the attorney general, which is why by 9:42 they had deleted Day 1 and fixed the broken link. They could have gotten away with passing the buck to the other website, but that didn’t explain the podcasts not being up, as promised. Then later they hid one of my comments and then when I called them out on it they unhid it. And then after a while I was unable to tag the people I was communicating with, exposing his scheme.
    These slimy business practices are all too common with people like this. And the most tragic thing to me is that they can say great things, but once they do something slimy, it loses its power.

    • Rufat says:

      I’m very sorry to hear you’ve had such a bad experience with Brendon team. It’s really frustrating to see such practices in the business. Unfortunately, things like that always happen and Brendon is not an exception. It doesn’t honor him. Anyway, thank you for sharing your story and I hope other people will read and benefit from it. At least I gave my readers another recommendation that is much better than Experts Academy and much cheaper BTW.

  4. Paul says:

    Dear Rufat,

    Thousands of thanks for the great review on Experts Academy. Your review contains loads of valuable information which provided enough information to analyse the product. Thanks for this useful review. Wishing you great success! Keep up the great work. I will come back to your website to learn more information.

    Your Friend,
    Paul

    • Rufat says:

      Thank you Paul for the comment and I’m really glad you find my review helpful. If you need any assistance with your business I will be happy to help you.

  5. Sharon May says:

    Great article on Brendon Buchard and to be honest at least he’s honest about what you have to pay before signing up, compare that to most online training programs where you find what you’ve signed for could end up costing you hundreds if not thousands down the line. I’m not sure I could spend that amount of money on a training course though, and I must say Wealthy Affiliate will always rock over and above others.

    • Rufat says:

      Yes, it’s really important to be honest with your visitors and Brendon is an honest guy. He clearly explains what you can expect from his product and he is doing a great job in this respect. Anyway, his product is extremely expensive and I think it can be a good fit only for someone who can afford it. There are many other programs out there that can teach you the same thing and there is no need to pay so much money for a training on affiliate marketing. For such a price you can easily find someone who can coach you 1-on-1.

  6. Farhan says:

    Hi Rufat, great article here.

    It’s great that you have underlined many aspects of Expert’s Academy, in which you give the negative and positive points and at the same time include your personal experience into it.

    You made a great point in terms of how much money one is willing to invest into a program that will not give you the dedication and attention that anyone needs, in order to succeed.

    You said you have spent quite a bit of money yourself on trying to make money on-line but with no success, do you have any advice for people who are just starting to look for the right program? Where should they start?

    Because not everyone will come across WA by chance.

    Thanks a lot and all the best!

    • Rufat says:

      I think the only way to succeed online is through finding the right program and there are many programs out there. Anyone can succeed even with Brendon’s program if they are consistent in doing what they have been taught to do. If you are not patient and consistent then you will never succeed even with the best program available online.
