It’s unfortunate really, I truly believed that Ideapros was going to help propel my business into the next level. But after 4 years, 5 project manager swaps, approximately 100 unproductive meetings, $150,000+ invested, zero accountability, and no final results, I can clearly see that they are incapable of managing their own company, let alone rebranding mine. For 7 years I have been building this dream, my vision was to build up a source of income that I could use to help fund causes that I am passionate about. Because I believe in integrity and honesty, I have decided to let go of my company, Drag Off so that I can freely post a review warning others about my experience. Ideapros and I do not share the same integral values. Fred Cary was willing to give me back the 20% of my business he took, but I believe that would come with a price of signing an agreement to not speak out about my truth in this situation. There have been countless other “partners” (with stories identical to mine) that have had to make this same choice and were forced to take down their honest reviews. In the end, I created Drag Off to ultimately help others, so I guess in a round about way I still get to accomplish that goal by guiding others to make an educated decision regarding a significant investment. While I will not publicly display the four years of almost laughable ineptitude I have had to endure, I do have receipts and I am willing to be available if anyone is needing further details. Response* Like I said, I have receipts and I will gladly show them to anyone who questions any of the nonsense below. I’m walking out of this with my chin up and a smile on my face, no hard feelings Fred, it’s just not meant to be.

We've collaborated with IdeaPros for several years to build our platform, starting from just a rudimentary concept. The journey wasn't always smooth – we shuffled through various developers, faced communication issues, and even redesigned our project multiple times with different teams. At points, we felt overlooked, as if our project was on the back burner. However, IdeaPros remained a consistent support, guiding us whenever necessary. This experience taught us a valuable lesson: the growth of a business or idea directly corresponds to the dedication and effort you invest. It's crucial to be proactive, rather than passively waiting for results. Realizing this, I dove deeper into understanding the business landscape. I equipped myself with knowledge on website design, SEO, social media management, and advertising. This proactive stance significantly propelled the growth of my company, The Fluent World. While IdeaPros has been an invaluable resource and partner, I recognize that they're here to provide a product, expertise, and resources. The onus of driving the business lies with me. Launching and maintaining a business is challenging and requires resilience. There will be obstacles and emotional low points, but the ultimate vision makes it all worthwhile. A special note of gratitude goes to Fred and his outstanding team at IdeaPros. Their dedication, expertise, and unwavering support have been instrumental in shaping our project. Their collaborative spirit and insights truly set them apart, and we are profoundly thankful for their partnership.

Fred Cary has been an amazing advisor and guide to us, as we discover the crazy world of product development and launch. We're one of those projects that had to pivot after nearly a year and both parties (IdeaPros and us) had to put in more time and effort to define the new idea and our path forward. We have had excellent direction from Fred who has a breadth of experience and knowledge that we definitely needed. Since our pivot, we have made steady progress and are close to launching our innovative new App. We have enjoyed working with the App development team who have been able to quickly update features during the testing phase. We are also excited at the proposal from the marketing company that will help us analyze App usage, demographics, and feedback along with relevant metrics. Overall our work with IdeaPros has been a positive and good learning experience. We definitely could not have gotten to where we are without Fred and his team. GO FOR LAUNCH!

We had a functioning app developed and we were seeking out a company who can help us take it to market. We can across IdeaPros and at that time it was all great reviews. We were excited because we went through the onboarding application process and the interview and our idea was accepted. We then sent over the $60k that was required in order for IdeaPros to start working on the app. They reviewed my app and said that we will have to start from scratch because the look and feel along with the functionality was not up to par. I figured they are they experts so fine. A logo was created and some mock ups were rendered. I was genuinely was excited to see and use our new app. But unfortunately that didn’t happen. Months would go by of meetings with various project managers because the previous ones either quit or were fired. Then the months turned to years with various development firms constantly being changed. They were all over the place. I met with Fred Cary on a few occasions and he was sure that the new development company were the real deal and that all will be great, but still no functioning app. Mid to late 2022, I was told that Crowdbiotics had taken over and that by November 2022 I would be launching my app. But again, nothing. The months went by and my partner and I had a zoom meeting with Mr. Fred Cary and he was telling us how tough it was to get good developers and that he wished he would have never got involved with app development, but our app will get done and delivered. Here we are almost 4 years later and still no app. I have requested a refund from IdeaPros and they actually had the audacity to blame it on Covid and tell me that there won’t be a refund. $60k into this and 4 years of losing potential profits and he’s going to tell me that as a founder I should put more money into this project. Maybe I will but not with IdeaPro. Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me. I had a lot of motivation when we first started this journey but all that has been taken from me because I made a horrible decision. Everyone should stay away from IdeaPros. It is hilarious how they invest all this time into making business videos and the such and their own house isn’t in order. Don’t be the next sucker that is promised the world and gets absolutely nothing. All I want is our money back.

I always have a GREAT experience with this company. They answer emails very quickly and if they do not have an answer to my questions, they ALWAYS refer me to someone who does.

My business partner and I began our journey with IdeaPros in early 2021. We were fortunate to have our "napkin" idea vetted by them and subsequently, they offered to partner with us. From that juncture, we began to be closely guided by Fred Cary and his team through various stages of building our startup company. Their mentorship, resources, and proven processes have helped us develop our software platform. Additionally, they have helped us to grow business strategies and taught us how to go from nothing to a realized vision in just a little over 2 years. Our company is now valued at 5 million dollars! There are many things that they have also taught us about how startups raise capital which ultimately helped us to raise 300K dollars in our pre-seed round in less than 3 months. With that said, the guidance and mentorship offered by IdeaPros regarding how to build a business, as well as launch and manage it has helped us save hundreds of thousands of dollars in development costs. Partnering with them has shaved off at least several years from the development process. Today, we continue to build our business while we continue to enjoy support when we need it from our business partner Fred and the entire team at IdeaPros.

You know, I've actually read a couple of these reviews claiming to be unsuccessful because Ideapros didn't help them enough. In fact, I've been contacted by these same people trying to get some of Ideapros' partners to say bad things. My experience, and that of the vast majority of us that attend the all partner meetings every month, has been nothing short of spectacular. There is no way on earth I would have been able to do this on my own. Is it hard? yes! Does it take a long time? yes! But these guys have battled with me through the worst few years in the world's history. They never quit when others drop like flies. If you go on the website there are new products and apps launching all the time. And mine is live and beginning to change my life. Another partner I recently spoke to raised a whole bunch of money at a $5 million value! Sure, there will be losers - because success is on us. We are the CEOs. Ideapros just provides the tools and training to succeed. The rest is on us! Thank you Ideapros, from me and my family.

Fred Cary is incredible🙌 there is not another person alive who cares more! about his partners and their products than Mr. Cary. He works with world-class team of experts that are highly skilled and specialized. there is no one else you want or need to help you start and launch your product to market. PERIOD. I encourage anyone to call and find out so they learn firsthand What It Takes and how to get started.
