This training provided a unique insight into the nature that media operates. The benefits afforded by learning this methodology will prove to pay dividends now and in the future. I have the ability to seek out media opportunities like never before.

Ready to Work for It? Results are There if YOU are!
As a graduate of this program, I can testify to the fact that you will get out of this program every bit of the energy you put into this program. If you want coverage for nothing and the "chicks for free", you shouldn't pursue this program. But, if you are looking to delve deep into your are of interest and learn how to become a trusted source for media professionals to call upon, then this program will get you results. Again, ya gotta be willing to do the work. Don't let the 1 star reviews fool you, this isn't towels on Amazon...check out who is writing those 5 star reviews and you'll see people who have been featured in major media.

Cheryl Hunters group help me get featured online…
This group helped me be featured online by NBC, CBS, ABC, Yahoo news and FOX news. So gray. Their training is great and thorough and Percicles stuck with me despite the challenges that popped up in my personal and business life. Truly grateful.

My experience with Magnify Your Message…
My experience with Magnify Your Message was excellent. The team is responsive and dedicated to everyone's success. The program has real substance and is provided by experts in the industry. I also liked that the program was not just about providing information. There is real work and the team is invested in holding people accountable to make them more successful.

I know a scam when I hear one
I know a scam when I hear one. They expect you to sign up with a 5-figure investment on the intro call... I've been in sales/marketing for 15 years; this is the scammiest intro call I've ever had.

Omar, we’ve reviewed the entire recording of your Strategy Session and are clear that this was an attempt from *you* to dishonestly procure information from us.
We are not new to others in the marketing, publicity, and media fields booking up our Strategy Sessions in an attempt to gain valuable details of our proprietary information or methodology. This was one of those calls.
Whenever Coach Chris asked you questions so that he could provide insight and connect with you about how we may be able to solve your problem, you declined to answer. You wanted the details you wanted of us, only, and were unwilling to divulge details about yourself and your business that would allow Coach Chris to serve you.
You stated that you ‘have several other calls booked with other people’ and that you need to speak to them all as well; Coach Chris replied by suggesting that you do exactly that - do your due diligence, examine our competition - and then come back to us. We know we are the best at what we do, and that it will stand up against other competitors. My team and I have been helping people gain major media exposure for their businesses and brands for a long time. We are passion-driven individuals who are committed to helping our clients stand out from the competition so they can make the difference they were created to make. We were built upon the methodology that I personally created to gain billions of views for my own message, and we have hundreds of successful client stories that reflect the proof.
When you began to ply Chris for more information on our program and methodology, without answering his questions, Chris stated that he needed to first determine if you were the right fit to work with us - but, given you would be interviewing other companies and hadn't answered his questions, he again suggested you leave to complete your other calls and then come back for a complete and valuable Strategy Session. Since you were not ready to move forward with us, when Chris stated ‘it would be in your best interest’ to speak with the other companies first and then come back, you were “offended by that”. When Coach Chris apologized and stated that that was not his intention but rather his aim to be genuinely helpful, you responded “my bullshit meter is really high on this one here”.
Our Strategy Sessions provide incredible insight and clarity into what is not working in a business’s visibility, as well as the exact strategy that will solve the visibility problem...but we do not reveal our process to anyone who is not a client. You missed the value of the call in your motive to uncover our propriety methods, rather than utilizing all that the Strategy Session call provides. It is clear that you were seeking only the information you came to procure, and when you didn't succeed in your efforts you then became aggressive and upset, ultimately resulting in this review.
Chris made clear several times that if you were uncomfortable moving forward, he would be happy to end the call. You wanted to run the call the way you wanted, rather than allow Coach Chris to serve you - and then came to post this negative review designed to damage our reputation, when the reality is that we did everything in our power to provide you with a legitimate Strategy Session.
15 years of experience in your marketing industry should afford you the expertise to understand that we would know better than to reveal proprietary information to someone who is not fit to be working with us - and we had no way of even determining that, based on your choices in how you conducted yourself during your time with your coach.
We wish you the best of luck in your endeavors with reviewing and interviewing other companies. My team and I will continue to focus our time and efforts on connecting with the right people to work with us so that they can learn to utilize the power of major media to make the biggest positive difference in the world that they can.

A goldmine of training, connecting, and action
The information and training provided through this program helped me be concise in introducing myself and educating others about how I can provide value to them. The media training polished my ability to be on-camera looking professional and confident. The confidence gained has been tremendous - getting picked up by major media was the cherry on top! The program's focus on getting very clear on your core message actually causes success outside the program. And the knowledge gained will be used repeatedly as l am growing this company, any other company in the future, and even just my brand. I was uncomfortable putting the money into it; but, the long-term payoff is substantial and what I learned will serve me ongoingly.

Review
Loved the membership modules and q&a call sessions. Helps you to think on the spot and be camera ready. Sure did help to get the major media exposure with in 60 days as promised. So thank you for that!! Just that on the very first Strategy session it would have been useful to know that the initial major media that we get is not intended to reach many people or will not help grow the clients right away. In the text message I was told that the audience reach is 2.4 Million but I didn't get any traffic to my website or any coaching signups. Also the companies advertisement does imply the same. So feeling a little bummed about that. But I do understand and have hope that the article initial media exposure I already got will help to springboard to getting more media as indicated by the coaches. Besides this overall good review!!.. Thank you for everything!!

Ava, congratulations on completing Magnify Your Message and garnering a total potential outreach of 2.4 million audience eyes on your incredible coaching program! We were so excited to see you get featured in Yahoo! Finance, NBC, Fox News, ABC News, and CBS News - just to name a few!
We wanted to drop a clarifying point for your review: the initial major media that we help you achieve is a stepping stone, not the finite outcome (or potential!) of what comes next. Without revealing any of our ‘secret sauce’, so to speak, you know from your work on the coaching calls and inside our program that the outcome reflects what you do next.
Your potential audience reach was exactly as you described, and we helped you get published in 390 locations, which is incredible!
By comparison — another client of ours, Michael Cortina, received an extremely similar initial major media footprint as you, and [thanks to his hard work and direct application of program principles] has since been featured live as an on-air expert for multiple news stations, and is in the process of pitching even more opportunities.
Now that you’ve graduated from Magnify Your Message, we will be able to continue working with you through one of our continuing programs or you can move forward independently to apply the initial media gained and work forward to increase your overall influence, impact, and income.
As we say in our advertising - we will help you do that, and teach you how to be featured in major media and have those outlets coming back to you for the remainder of the life of your business. We are excited to see that happen for you, now that you’ve got the tools to make it happen and the initial media we helped you secure. Be sure to stay connected to our graduate community online to learn about other ways, insights, and opportunities we can provide to you as a former client. Congrats again!

Disappointed before it even started
Disappointed before it even started. Had a call with Chris.
For the first 40 min it went well as he was asking legitimate questions, some scripted pep talk. I’ve been around the block with life coaching and know how it’s done, however that part didn’t bother me. But he lost me when he expected my 16k commitment at that time or it was waste of his time attitude. I was really interested but told him that I need a day to do my diligence and read the reviews. He got pushy, agitated and reprimanded me for not doing it before the call as if I had to be ready to dish out 20k or 17k or 16k or whatever was on the script.
I am in a people business and when my clients tell me that a day to think is needed, my response is always “please do and let me know if you have any questions I am here for you”.
It never fails.
Wrong approach Chris.
Response from Cheryl HunterNov 6, 2023
Leon,
We listened to the entirety of your recorded Strategy Session with Chris; as he informed you at the top of your call, we record all sessions for quality assurance.
As you may have noticed, the overwhelming majority of our reviews are from happy, fulfilled clients - so we were eager to inspect your experience, as my team and I are committed to ensuring a quality experience and helpful session whether or not we end up taking you as a Client.
It seems, however, as though you may have had an ulterior motive for booking the call, to begin with; upon our internal quality assurance review, your call comes across as a vetting call, by you. Being one of the industry leaders in helping people get their message out to millions via major media has caused many of our competitors and people who believe ‘they know how it’s done’ to book one of our valuable Strategy Sessions purely to try and gain insight on our methodology and proprietary information.
While that may not have been your full intent, after we conducted our Strategy Session with you, we invited you in to become a Client - and on multiple occasions you actually **praised** Chris for doing a good job, and requested to hear more. It wasn’t until we provided you the finite, proprietary details about the offer that you took a sharp turn and cited that you needed ‘a day or so to mull it over’.
Chris, of course, attempted to dive in and determine what he could provide to help add insight, background details, and research information about us - and you proceeded to be combative, not answer his questions, and ultimately hang up the call…and then came here to leave a negative review.
Please understand: that we do not reveal our proprietary details to anyone who is not a client. Whatever your motives were for booking the call, you missed the value of the call by only wanting to know the fiscal details on how we get amazing outcomes for our clients, rather than utilizing all that the call provides. While our Strategy Sessions provide insight and clarity into what is not working in a business’s visibility, as well as the exact strategy that will solve the visibility problem - major media is not for everyone.
We have to thoroughly ensure that any potential client has a problem we can solve, is media-worthy, and is a fit for how we can solve that problem with them. You stated on the call that you were committed, decisive, coachable, and resourceful — and wanted to proceed — but once the offer was given, you were suddenly no longer committed, decisive, coachable, and resourceful. The more Chris tried to understand what you needed, the more combative you became.
It’s quite clear that your review is designed to reveal information intended only for those we make an offer to, and ultimately attempt to do damage to our reputation. I’m sorry that you felt this was the best way to proceed, rather than reaching out directly to our team to discuss further how you felt about your call with Chris. We will continue to serve those who aim to make the biggest positive difference in the world, as it’s our honor and pleasure to help those amazing clients command the spotlight they deserve.
To your success,
Cheryl Hunter
