The business plan seems good
The business plan seems good, and ai training will open your eyes how to use it in the future of your business. The thing that isn’t told as to how much you have to do to make the business work. Selling is part of the business plan and it is not clearly explained by those who have gone before you. The $25,000 buy in and the multiple subscriptions to various other tools, meta ads all add up, when you are struggling to pay the initial buy in. I think it needs to be more clear and not high pressure sales.
Not expecting and refund but just buyer beware.

Hi Elizabeth,
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you see value in the business plan and AI training. Building an agency involves learning new skills, speaking with potential clients, and managing ongoing business costs. We appreciate your perspective on how those parts of the process are explained. If you'd like to discuss any specific questions, you can reach us at [email protected].

AI Owners… The reality felt like a bait and switch.
I am posting here because AI Owners provided many of the videos, courses, and training materials connected to the Kingdom CEOs program I purchased. Those polished materials helped convince me I was investing in a supported path to building a business. What I experienced after paying did not match the picture they presented.
I completed the full 90 days and did the work. On top of the program fee, I spent approximately $1,600 on ads, paid for GoHighLevel and phone add-ons, and was encouraged to pay for a fulfillment team. I kept investing because I was trying to make the program work. It did not produce a profitable business for me.
The coaching made the gap between the sales message and my experience impossible to ignore. My first coach was removed after about two weeks. My second was repeatedly late, communicated poorly, and behaved in ways I found unprofessional. My third was knowledgeable and successful, but I felt he shared valuable methods only near the end, after I had already spent heavily.
I posted an earlier review about my concerns, and Kingdom CEOs asked me to take it down. I continued in good faith and completed the 90 days. When I requested a refund under Kingdom CEOs’ guarantee, it took more than a week and a reminder just to get acknowledgment of my email. About another week passed before someone called. When I tried to arrange a time to speak, communication stopped. The messages encouraging me to upgrade kept coming.
AI Owners’ training was part of what earned my trust. That is why I am leaving this review here. The videos made the opportunity look compelling. My experience was a revolving door of coaches, mounting expenses, and unanswered questions when I sought a refund. I would not put another dollar into a program connected to this experience, and I urge anyone considering one to look past the presentation before they pay.

Hi Sonia,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We've read your review carefully and want to respond openly, both to you and to anyone reading.
About the training and what we present
Our videos, courses, and training materials are built to give clients a clear, step-by-step path to building an agency. We stand behind that content. We are also honest that training alone doesn't create results. Outcomes depend on consistent execution of the daily action items, sales calls, and the steps laid out in the program. No business result is guaranteed, and we never present it as guaranteed.
About the costs involved
Starting an agency comes with real expenses beyond the program fee, like ad spend, software such as GoHighLevel, and phone add-ons. Our fulfillment team is an optional service. We walk through these costs on the initial call before anyone joins so there are no surprises. We understand how discouraging it is to invest in a business and not see the return you hoped for, and we don't take that lightly.
About the coaching changes
We know the coaching changes you experienced were disruptive. When a coach fell short of the professional standard we expect, we acted quickly to replace them, introduced you to your new coach, and extended your program time so you wouldn't lose out. We're sorry that period affected your experience, and we hold ourselves accountable for it.
About the guarantee and the fresh start we offered
Our 90-Day Money-Back Guarantee requires completing the daily action items and the required sales calls during the 90 days of running your agency. These requirements are explained before joining and written into the agreement every client signs. After your first review, we asked for the chance to make things right. You agreed with our support coach to restart your 90 days, and we offered to meet you halfway. We were clear that if we didn't follow through on our side, you were free to share your experience publicly. We never pressure anyone to remove a review. The restarted 90 days were not completed, which was the agreement we both made.
About your refund request
Your community coach, who was your direct point of contact, followed up with you after your email. We recognize the response took longer than it should have, and we own that. We'd prefer to keep account details private, but out of fairness to everyone reading, we need to be clear: the eligibility requirements for the guarantee were not met, which is why the refund was not approved.
Sonia, we're sorry this wasn't the outcome you were hoping for. If you'd like to speak with us directly, you can reach us at [email protected]

They Took My Ad Creative, Then Refused to Release Me From My Contract
I had an extremely disappointing experience with Kingdom CEOs (the AI Owners are the same company) . My biggest concern is that they took an advertising copy & creative and sold it to another member, breaching the very agreement they are now using to keep me financially obligated to their program.
I created an ad and copy and brought it to my coach for feedback. Kingdom CEOs then sold my creative to another paying member who was in the Executive program without my permission. I have documentation of this. Section 4(b) of my agreement specifically states that proprietary information disclosed by a participant belongs solely and exclusively to the party who disclosed it.
When I confronted them, the ad was taken down, but Jonathan later defended their actions, telling me there was nothing wrong with using my creative because it was publicly visible in the Facebook Ads Library.
After everything that occurred, I asked to leave the program. They have repeatedly refused to refund me or even release me from the remaining financial obligation, despite their own breach of the agreement.
One of the reasons I initially trusted Kingdom CEOs was because they market themselves as a Christian-based organization. Unfortunately, the way this situation has been handled does not reflect the Christian values of integrity, honesty, and doing right by others that I believed the company stood for.
I tried repeatedly to resolve this privately before sharing my experience. Prospective members deserve to know how my proprietary work was handled and what happened when I asked to leave due to their own misconduct.
Response from The AI OwnersSep 3, 2026
Rachel, thank you for the feedback. We'll respond to your points directly.
On the ad creative. Your ad was live in Meta's public Ad Library when our team referenced it. It was not taken from a private account and it was not sold. It was reused as a reference without asking you first, and that shouldn't have happened. It came down as soon as you raised it. We believe this isn't something that reasonably affects a separate commitment like the remaining payments under the agreement.
On the refund. We offer a 90 day money back guarantee, with conditions written into the agreement before enrollment. Those conditions were not met. Outside of that guarantee, this is an information and coaching product and is sold as non refundable and non cancellable, the same as most programs in this space.
On the remaining balance. The coaching, the curriculum, and the support never stopped being available to you, and we offered more than once to keep working together. Those commitments sit separately under the agreement, so releasing the balance on that basis isn't something we're able to do.
We understand you see it differently. We appreciate the work you put in and we have left the door open to continue working together.
Sincerely,
The AI Owners Support Team

This place is a TOTAL SCAM
This place is a TOTAL SCAM. They will use a bait and switch with telling you, no extra fees or charges; when it takes at least $1000 a month just to operate the platforms. I would suggest running away from this. Yes, they have 4.5 stars, however, these reviews can be altered to make them look better than what they are. Oh and by the way, I was in this for only 2 months and now they have destroyed my credit. They use "Christianity" as a mask to lure people into their TRAP. I can say that Elective Group erased the debt that I had with them, so I have to give them a 100% rating.
Response from The AI OwnersSep 10, 2026
Hello Shane,
Thank you for sharing your experience. We'd like to respond with the full picture for those that are reading this review.
Before anyone joins the program, they go through a process with one of our advisors. That conversation covers the time commitment, investment capability, and the costs that come with running a business, including the software and platforms you pay your own providers for. Every single one of those costs is broken down on the call before a contract is ever provided.
We take pride in that process, from the initial inquiry call through onboarding, and we are always upfront about the realities and risks of building a business.
On the reviews: this is Trustpilot. Businesses cannot write, alter, or remove reviews here. What you see on this page comes from people who have actually been in the program, and that includes clients who have shared their happiness as well as clients who have shared their dissatisfaction. Yours is here for that same reason.
On Elective: they are a third party payment processor, and they run a thorough credit check before anyone proceeds. If someone does not meet their criteria, or is not in a position to invest, they do not move forward with them.
If you have concerns or would like to speak with someone on our team about your dissatisfaction, please email [email protected] and we will make sure the right person reaches out.
