$23,000 spent, 0 customers.
$23,000 wasted. We spent the $12,000 for the course and over $10,000 on ad spend. We literally got not one customer from the whole thing. They had us run the same garbage ad the entire time and only thought to tweak little things here and there rather than trying anything new. At one point they simply just removed us from Slack without any warning, no email, anything. When I asked what happened they said the time was up. After expressing my distaste, and following up, they wouldn't respond. It's clear they're used to this response and they're just really good at sales. There's a couple good people over there, but it's an awful company that treats you like you're one of 10,000 accounts they're juggling.
Response from Scaling With SystemsMar 8, 2026
Hi Zack, We want to address this honestly for anyone reading. No one spends $23,000 blindly. Ad spend decisions are made by the client, and we advised you throughout that process. What we also advised, repeatedly, were iterations to the approach that you chose not to implement. The results you're describing were not the result of us running the same thing without feedback. They were the result of recommendations that were not followed. On the Slack access, we want to be straightforward here. You were not removed without cause. There was a period where we were reaching out consistently and receiving no response. When a client goes completely dark and stops engaging, we have no choice but to offboard them. That is not abandonment. That is us respecting both your time and ours. We have worked with hundreds of clients who follow the process and see real results. We stand behind that fully. But no program in the world can do the work for you if you're not in it. We genuinely wish you well. If there is something specific you'd like to resolve, reach out at [email protected]. — The Scaling With Systems Team
