But in the last 3 years, I have taken a hard pass on many of the biggest names out there.
I became disillusioned by several slithery behaviors that really turned me off from many of them.
*The overnight success story that lied about her launch income, fabricated stories about her "million dollar company" and has PAGES of complaints about how bad her program is. Her solution? To block anyone that dares question her
*The guy that started with 12 dating sites filled with bots and set it up so there was zero customer service and no way to get a refund once you paid with a credit card. Took this initial cash influx to rent a mansion and shoot the most hated video on Youtube. Completely focused on "lifestyle marketing" and I have yet to see ONE PERSON that has bought his program and been successful
*Hosts events all over the world and pays to have big names associated with him. The event is a high pressure sale fest and once people buy, they are pressured to purchase a more expensive upsell with VERY poorly produced content and materials. The biggest red flag is that this guy HIRED SOMEONE to monitor Reddit and deletes or argue with anyone that writes anything bad about him
I had both Gary V and Grant C on my Facebook but to be honest, I didnt need 193 selfies a week in my feed with poorly thought out "inspirational quotes" that look like they were crafted by a 3rd grader.
Gary's book was SURPRISINGLY good. Grant's was wonderfully mediocre.
I'm not saying that these guys aren't good at what they do, I just need higher level thinkers in my world.
So for the past 3 years, I have taken a sabbatical from the gurus. I havent bought ANYTHING from them. I have instead learned from the next generation of entrepreneurs I have been lucky enough to meet and get to know. I have invested in several of them, supported them, used them as examples during speaking gigs and more.
Jillian Sandoval - Spiritual Based Business Coaching
Chris Burns - High Energy Coaching
Chris Hoffman - Time Management and Productivity
Kyree Oliver - Business Strategies and Writing Expert
Richard Kaufman - Inspirational Coaching and Resilience Expert
Tucker Bearden - Meaningful Life Impact Coach and Speaker
Marshal Gillen - Storytelling Expert and Visibility Pro
Patrick Kirby - NonProfit Training Expert
I'm sure there are high end gurus out there that still have the ability to create change in people's lives. But for now, I feel like they aren't strong enough to lead me. Everything feels like a cash grab with no real intent of impact. So for now, Ill focus on the people above that are out doing REAL THINGS for people. - Rob
