So you guys say refund aren’t typically allowed after someone in engaged w the program? You guys kicked me out the same day after I told you guys the purchase was a mistake… I tried to tell you guys immediately after I seen how much was pulled out of my bank account I joined the heartbeat group asked for a refund and then you guys kicked me out… I paid $800 literally for nothing… This is a SCAM, plz don’t F up like I did… Maybe if you guys would stop ignoring all my emails and texts n could talk to me about my refund then I’d take down this post but dude $800 is A LOT I did NOT mean to pay that much …

Hi Rojelio, Thank you for your 3rd, one star review here on Trust Pilot with all of your other accounts. Our coaches noted to me personally that you were incredibly disrespectful to them and the other 427+ students inside our community. We do not tolerate disrespectful or vulgar behavior and as result had to remove you from our community for the safety of our other students and coaches on our team. We wish you the best on your journey. Regards, Kekoa

Hello! So I’m sure u guys know by now what’s going on n my misunderstanding of this whole process. I was wondering if a refund is possible, I spent my rent money thinking I was going to b making money w you guys so I kinda jus figured I’d make that money back n even more! But that’s not the case, it’s ofc a process I’d need to learn so w that being said atm I do NOT have the time nor money to invest in this , gimme like maybe 4months to put money aside to take the courses but rn I quit my job like 2weeks ago, had jus about enough money just for rent next month n seen this instagram stuff bout making “$5k - $10k a month” w this program so I thought I’d give it a try cuz I’ve been extremely depressed the passed 3years but now I’m realizing this isn’t what I was thinking it was n I jus spent my rent money so me n my 5yr old r bouta b homeless unless I get this refund. I jus joined b4 going to work yesterday around 7pm then got at like 6am n did sum research cuz I jus hada bad gut feeling all day I made the wrong choice. Sure enough I did, I think it’s a great opportunity if you have the time n money, but rn atm I have neither, I’m a 23yr single father taking care of his 5yr that jus started kindergarten, my car broke down 2months ago so I’ve been unerring EVERWHERE, I jus stopped working very recently, I jus used my rent money for this opportunity thinking it was something entirely different so could someone reach out to me n lmk if I’ll b able to get a refund so me and my son don’t become homeless next month?

My honest experience with The Modern SDR and Kekoa I've been a part of the internal program of Kekoa's since December and in these months I was able to take my skillsets and my income to a whole new level. For example prior to working with Kekoa I wasn't making anything with Appointment setting and was just working endlessly. In the second month working with him I made close to $3,000 which might not seem like much, but in my country as well as considering my age which at the time I was only 16 plus having school and other activities, I felt happy. Since that time I was able to sharpen my skillsets and become a closer. I'm still working on it everyday and there is still a lot for me to learn. But in 2 days I was able to close 3 deals and make over $1,000 in commissions... Income and skillsets aside I was able to network with people who have similar visions and goals and helped me push forward when things were difficult. Arnas

So yea, I thought I’d give it a try cuz they made it seem like you’d make money fast and steadily but after doing sum research and realizing you’re just paying to be taught to become a sale representative and they don’t actually help u make money they just tell you how u can make money. Tryna getta refund atm but when I posted a msg in the chat it got deleted then I got kicked outta the SDR program. I’ll come back n give u guys a 2 star IF I get my refund cuz this whole Modern SDR shi was EXTREMELY misleading :’) ALSO I WAS KICKED OUT THE PROGRAM WITHIN 24hours of paying $800 … so I basically paid them $800 for absolutely NOTHING… this is a scam because you guys never even told me about the refund policy until AFTER I purchased…. Replying back to your reply : so yea a few things about your reply… 1. When you said, “ everything from our 1-on-1 onboarding process and meetings with our head coaches inside the program are incredibly transparent.” what you’re talking about is the video call you guys gave me right?… you can literally watch those videos on YouTube or your instagram account, there’s nothing “transparent” about you asking me what I do for a living and where I live/work and if I would like to make more than what I’m making atm… your “coaches” just asked personally questions about me and then asked if I’d like to make more money and ofc I would I just got done letting them know I’m a struggling 23yr old single father working 3rd shift 50+ hours a week 2. So I haven’t been taught anything, literally bought it for $800 THINKING I was investing that $800 into a money come up or something so I bet my rent money thinking this is something that’s about to make me a few extra $k, I didn’t think I was paying $800 for tips n online courses… I have rent coming up n I really thought I was gonna do something like RIGHT NOW to get bills paid not something that’ll happen in a few weeks from now after investing time and money into… I jus don’t have that typa money atm so I don’t see why I can’t get a refund when I asked you if I could refund my purchase within the 24hours of purchasing the program because it was NOT AT ALL what I thought it was… I haven’t used any of your “tools” all that happened was people in the program congratulating/welcoming me on purchasing the program… I tried to talk to you guys 1 on 1 about this issue and all of you keep ignoring me… I have rent due on the 6th n I spent $800 of it thinking I was investing in a come up… I simply jus do NOT have the money to be paying $1k a month for this program I got bills I have to pay so I can keep this roof over my sons head, I don’t have the time to learn all these new skill sets w this warehouse job on top of parenting with all my free time… I do not see the harm in my refund at all… the only harm that’ll come is if you guys can’t refund me then I won’t b able to pay rent this upcoming month and my son and I will be homeless all because y’all really wouldn’t refund just $800… I only took this leap cuz I was reallll desperate with not working the past 2weeks I jus went back like 2days ago n my check is not going to cover rent… I’ve asked so many of you guys and begged jus for a refund and all of you guys are ignoring me.. leaving me on read or just not relying to any of my emails… also your “Client Success Manager” reaching out to me privately to get me “taken care of.” Was literally her jus sending a message saying someone else will get ahold of me to get this taken care of… now I can’t tell if this is a scam or not because if it wasn’t why can’t you guys jus refund me when I’m letting you know I invested w my rent money into something I didn’t even understand correctly n now I realized y’all are tryna make me pay $1k a month for online course and “coaches” I feel dumb asf cuz that’s NOT at allll how I thought that $800 was being spent… like I was thinking something entirely different like I was investing $800 into some sorta deal w you guys and y’all would fill me in w the details when I was brought “on board the program”… I jus want my refund dude , all you guys did was welcome me to the community, didn’t discuss anything else other than what I do for a living… no knowledge whatsoever of making money… so I honestly do not see why I cannot get my refund when I asked within the first 12hours of purchasing for a refund… and I got kicked out the program within the same day after asking for a refund… so I LITERALLY paid $800 for absolutely NOTHING…

Thank you for your message. Our team notified us that you booked two calls with our team and then proceeded to move forward after clearly being told what this opportunity was. We appreciate your feedback but are sad to inform you that everything from our 1-on-1 onboarding process and meetings with our head coaches inside the program are incredibly transparent. As with all educational programs online and states in our website terms of service, we teach people how to become sales representatives online and provide all the necessary resources to do so. In regards to the removed messages, those were posted in a feed that was dedicated to Student Role Play reviews. However, our Client Success Manager had reached out to you privately to get you taken care of. We hope you succeed on your journey elsewhere. Best of luck, Kekoa

I recently applied and finished the Modern SDR Initiative program, which cost $264 plus another $97 charge. Initially I was under the impression from my emails that I was starting the main program at a discount, but upon finishing all 16 of my Initiative courses, my Client Success Manager informed me that the Initiative was only a condensed version of the main program and doesn't have as many benefits, help or information as the central program, also known as The Modern SDR 3.0 as of this time of writing. Unfortunately, I applied for the Initiative program because I thought from my emails that I was receiving a specialty sale of the central program, not a pregame version, so I am disappointed that I do not have full access to all of the resources to help me become a High Ticket Closer. That being said, the Initiative does offer direct links to connect you with business owners in need of closers and Kekoa also supplies a rough template of what to say during a phone call to close on a deal, including in a written document, so you are not left completely in the dark even without the full program. Without having any of the information from the main program, however, I am not feeling as confident as I probably should in my ability to know where to start or next steps moving forward, as I do not have any experience in sales. The speakers, presenters and Client Success Managers seem amazing and I feel like I would have a wonderful time working with them and being able to ask questions. They are all very nice and very patient, and present information in a very clear and concise way. Kekoa himself is also directly involved in speaking to new students and answering questions, which I think is amazing. After I finished the Initiative program and spent $361 on it though, I felt crushed when I learned that the main program costs $6,000 or potentially more depending on the circumstances, and I had applied to this program because I am currently unemployed and have been struggling to find a job. I am 24 and have no work experience due to unforeseen circumstances being diagnosed with MS when I was 17, and that has made finding work very hard, especially as someone who does not have any work experience (and employers require that you have experience just to gain experience). I simply cannot afford the $6,000 price tag for the central program and I am sad that I cannot continue on the trajectory I started with in the Initiative. I hope that a lower price point could be offered to those who are not in the best financial situation so that they still have an opportunity to learn and grow from the program, or even a version that is free for a few months and can be paid back once you start earning money as a closer. The program seems like it would be an amazing opportunity, but I am feeling heartbroken that I cannot continue it.

Hey Austin! First and foremost, I want to extend my deepest appreciation for the time and effort you invested in sharing your detailed feedback about the Modern SDR Initiative program. We understand the importance of clear communication and regret the misunderstanding that arose about the differences between the Initiative and the main program. It’s genuinely heartening to read that you found value in the content we provided in the Initiative program, and that you had a positive interaction with our program, presenters, and Client Success Managers. Your acknowledgment of Kekoa’s direct involvement emphasizes our commitment to ensuring every student feels supported and engaged. I deeply empathize with your current situation, especially in light of the personal challenges you’ve faced. Our primary goal is to empower our students, and we’re sorry to hear that the main program’s cost is a hurdle for you at this time. Lastly, we encourage you to stay connected with us and our community. Networking with others who have gone through the program might provide you with tips, resources, and potential job opportunities as well. Thank you once again for your feedback! Cheers, The Modern SDR

The course itself shows you about how to become a modern SDR, it goes deeper and teaches the psychological aspect as well. In the program you get to meet a lot of like minded people who want to grow and excel, and willing to help. I've made a lot of great friends who have helped me in my journey to becoming an SDR and even a closer. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and friendly, they will treat you as a person and provide excellent feedback. The only thing I'd like is for the admins to be more responsive. Other than that this is a program I'd recommend 110%!
