I came into the program with great hopes and eager to add a new skill with short funnel marketing. I am an experienced marketer of 30 years, but never dove into this type of online marketing before, so I was excited to see what I could gain for my new group coaching program. The online self-paced courseware is well produced, easy to follow and for the most part complete. The AI tools they use to create the assets required for the sales funnel you build are OK, but not great. You have a copy writing coach to help polish the content AI creates, but don't be in a rush to get answers because they have a 24-48 hour response policy through their chat platform. Better to just get on the twice a week office hours to get answers during the creative process. You can tell they are still working out the kinks in the system which creates confusion at key parts of the process. I was a fast burner through the course and finished all required deliverable from my end quickly. I suggest to anyone going through this course to do the same because you want as much time for the second and third phase as possible. The second phase with their done-for-you program is the sales funnel build out. I was told this takes no more than a week, which would give me three weeks to test the ad campaign before my 8-week agreement was over. Unfortunately mine took five weeks and when delivered was still not ready to launch an ad campaign against. I would have asked them to fixed the issues, but by then, my window to launch the campaign for my program had past and decided my team would just pick up the pieces we had and move forward on our own with the third phase - the ad campaign. On what I hoped to be a brighter end to my experience, my success coach, who was very attentive to my concerns and always stayed positive, did contact me about a month later. They attempted to find out what happened and looked for ways to "make it right" as this was "not the experience folks usually had with the program". She spent time going back and forth with the tech team, but they were never able to grasp the issue at hand and decided that, "From everything I see our team showed up fully and supported every step of the way." She continued to offer their support, but I couldn't afford to spend more time working with them when they couldn't even understand the simple truths of the situation. In the end, I have an understanding of a new type of marketing for my business and will move forward with my internal team to test what was built and optimize it on our own. Conclusion: I don't think this is the best program for those without their own tech/website team or anyone that is on any sort of set timeline they want their campaigns to run. I also don't think 8 weeks is enough time to go through the courseware, complete all of the assignments, get the site built, and have enough time to dial in the ad campaign. Of course, you can sign up for their follow-on mastermind, but I have heard that runs an extra $20K a year (don't quote me on the price). On a side note. I gathered from the few group calls I was on that the ad campaigns can take a few months to get dialed in. I heard firsthand from people who had been spending an upwards of $6K per month for two and three months without success. The COD success team (the single beacon of greatness of the program) is always eager to continue helping, but I am not sure how many folks have an $18K runway plus the cost of the course to see results. So buyer beware.

I enrolled in COD summer of 2021. I previously wrote a negative review for reasons I will outline below, but after some solid support from the COD team following my review, I am revising the review. The program and customer support isn't perfect--it has some strengths and weaknesses. However, you can tell they really care about their customers and they're open to feedback. You can potentially make a lot of money with CODs system, or conversely lose a lot of money, too. I paid about ~18-20k CAD including the ads, and made back 6.5k. Despite not making back my investment, I don't regret the decision to join COD per se, as the system they teach is cool, and especially because I loved working with the client I signed. pros & cons: Solid Support Following Review To COD's credit, after my negative review, they helped out with my funnel (shout out to Rory), and it was solid support. Following that, my funnel got 2 sales calls a week spending the minimum of $25/a day, which are really good stats. I didn't make any sales, but that might improve if I brush up on my mindset + sales call skills. Vulnerability to Technical Changes / Customer Support Response During the fall of 2021 FB made changes to their system (expanded targeting), which meant the original system COD endorsed in 2021 would no longer work. So for people graduating who wouldn't have access to the live trainings anymore, they wouldn't get guidance on what to do with the new system. I only got an update after asking in Dec 2021 in a momentum call and also in March in an email, one follow-up email was ignored, and it ended up being ~May 2022 when the update was announced. I think its okay if there's a challenge with the update, but it should have been communicated better - during Oct - May there was no guidance on what to do with the changes, which made the existing funnel useless -- unless you paid 20k for the follow-up program. My experience with customer support post-graduation is you sometimes get a response, sometimes not. They do explicitly say there is no coaching after graduation, but there are some things the existing content may not cover, such as technical changes, ad fatigue, etc. I get not having live coaching, but I think if you drop 10k+ on a program, the content should cover these issues that may come up. And if not, customer support should at the very least address it. I wish it didn't take writing a negative review to get a decent response. However, after I spoke with Jayne, she mentioned changing that so maybe things are different now. --- you might end up being really successful with the program as many are, or you might not, which is also the case for many! it's a combination of your own hard work, but also factors outside of your control. Customer service, if you need it, might be great post-graduation, or might not be! weigh the pros and cons and decide if it's a bet that you're willing to take. Recently (Sept 2022), Russ announced a challenge specifically for grads who weren't so successful post-graduation, which I thought was great. I've signed up for the challenge, and we'll see how it goes!

First of all, I would like to say that I take full responsibility for not obtaining the results from implementing some of the COD strategies. My reason for giving it a 3 star is that I feel the program could provide more proactive support about the progress of their clients for the price that they pay. Nothing to say about the content of the course and its price. The way that I viewed it is: if I would hire a marketing consultant for 2 months to share all his secrets and strategies, it would cost me more money. I only did half of the course in the 8 weeks I was in the program. The content about copy and about facebook marketing is very interesting, and they have a good copyrighter to check what you do. In terms of support, they have regular calls (3 times a week), including a sales support call on Friday by a guy who could be (maybe already is) a motivational speaker, because he's so enthusiastic and caring. My issue with COD is somewhere else. When I signed up, I enrolled for a call during which I thought we were going to discuss my situation and my business idea and see whether this is a good fit. I felt it was purely a sales call and I didn't feel great during the call. I only signed up because a friend had gone through COD and it produced great results for her. Once in the program, let's just say that I didn't give it the space and time it needed in my life. I had too many things going on and I didn't keep up with my assignments or my lessons. I did implement the first principles, but seeing that my initial results were not yielding great results (not getting enough people in my FB group, not managing to engage the community), I would have needed to triple down on my time investment to get the results; and I made other choices. As I watched my own failure happening live, I felt a growing sense of shame to have paid so much for a program that I didn't follow, and resentment as well. In this time, COD doesn't check your status about whether you're doing your lessons and whether you're submitting your assignments. There is support available if you go get it yourself. But no one will come and try to get you back on board. Even the exit coaching call, I was just tagged on a Facebook post to schedule it, and no one followed up with me to make sure I booked it. Their premise is that if you pay so much for a program, surely people will be motivated to follow it. But I happened to be a person who didn't follow it despite paying a lot for it. And when that happens, COD won't come and get you. Even at the end of the program, I received a "congrats on your graduation" which made me think: "you guys really have no idea what I've been doing in your course." So in summary, content and support that you request is good, and worth the money. But COD isn't proactive in chasing you down to make sure you're on track for your course and getting the value, because it just assumes you are considering the price you paid. In education terms, I was a "dropout". For the price I paid, it is my opinion it is COD's responsibility to chase students and have a more proactive follow up. So only sign up if you know you will have the number of hours per day available to follow this program and if you are a bit surer than I was about your business idea.

It's a good program if you want to sell high cost programs. You need to be great at selling on a phone call. Also, you need to drop everything in your life and just do this program because if you don't get through the materials in the given amount of time, that's it, you're done. You're moved over to the graduated group. This happened to me and I was not able to get the help to get my webinar selling. Basically I spent a ton of money to create a FB group. I was really not an ideal candidate for this program and wish I had been vetted better. It does work for some, but not for me. Yes, I did seek help in the graduate group and found someone who wanted 5k to help me. It really didn't provide the support I needed to be successful.
