In my experience, the Beyond Six Figures (BSF) for coaches program offered by Eva Gregory and Mary Allen (Life Coach Mary) didn't even come close to the promises that they sold.

I am working harder than ever, far more that 2- 3 days per week as they promised, and I am actually making less income per month than before I started their program.

To the best of this poster's knowledge, not ONE coach that has gone through this very expensive program has gone beyond six figures or gotten close and, even though they were told that they would work less and make more money, it appears that they are now working harder than ever.

Though it appeared that the program had a "100% money back guarantee," it turns out the guarantee was nearly impossible to get. In fact, I don't know of any of the coaches who I went through the program with who asked for their money back and got it. Instead, they were told that they didn't work hard enough, fell short and/or that the guarantee had expired.

It is interesting to note that it appears that as of February 2010, they are no longer offering a money back guarantee with the program.

Additionally, the testimonials used on their website as this moment, were prematurely recorded, shortly before the time that the program ended and well before anyone discovered that the BSF principles fall short of their promises. We were told that providing a testimonial would give us more exposure and credibility... so many of us did so.

Finally, it is my belief that the so called "experts" that are brought into the program are actually affiliates who pay Eva Gregory and Mary Allen a commission when one of their coaches signs up with them. One can decide for themselves on how they feel about this, but, to me, this seems to only further cheapen the integrity of the BSF program, all the while making even more money for Eva Gregory And Mary Allen.

Personally, it's hard to sit down here and write this without sounding a bit jaded, as this was the last thing that I believed that I would ever be doing. I was raised with the strong belief that if anything in life is worth having, then its worth working hard for. But when one works harder at something than they have even done so in their life, only to get lackluster results from a program that didn't deliver the goods, what is one to do?

Top this off with seeing this very same program continually marketed in the same way it was for us coaches who went through the very first program, well, it leads me to question the integrity of its promoters.

In short - Buyer beware. If it sounds too good to be true... well, you know how it goes...

I truly hope that this can be of help to others.

First off, know that I had to track this site down and then set up an account to post here. I am that disgruntled with the posturing of both Eva Gregory and Mary Allen (Life Coach Mary) and their so called "100% money back guarantee, " on a program that is nothing more than bulking one out of their money. It actually makes me sick! I took their course and fulfilled every aspect of what they required one to do and have gotten nearly nothing out of it except watching helplessly as my coaching practice goes down the drain. I'm more than certain that Eva and Mary Allen, who're both sincerely nice people, had no real intention of ripping people off and, furthermore, only had what they think is the best possible info to pass on to those coaches who want to see their coaching practices skyrocket. However, any good intentions aside, it just doesn't work, especially during recession as they have advertised (Note: that they have since removed any mentioning of the "100% money back guarantee" or that their program will work even in a down market.)

I'll have to agree completely with what other posters have gripped about in the above passages and that I too never thought that I would have to be declaring anything less than the very best about Eva and Mary Allen's program. This said, I am sad that things didn't pan out. I can confidently say that it wasn't because the effort wasn't put forth, as I have never worked harder than this than at anything else in my life. I am also sad that they were unwilling to honor their "100% money back guarantee, " and that any time limit on that guarantee was well hidden and undetectable. If I'd truly known any off this, I'd have NEVER have participated.

Yes, buyer beware!

I concur. I worked harder than I ever worked in my life for NO results.

A quote from Mary Allen: " One may say the system is faulty, and yet I guarantee -- one of these elements isn't fully developed."

The elements that she's speaking of are their program. However, there are several cases in my "cohort" in which people did EVERYTHING. Here's the thing, to do their program 100%, we all had to all but abandon our other marketing efforts. So, we were abandoning what worked, albeit not as well as we might have liked, for something that didn't work at all. Many of us allowed our core businesses to tank (and that's partly on us, admittedly) because these so-called experts told us that we hadn't given it enough time or we weren't working hard enough or we didn't have the right attitude.

We trusted them to be our business advisers and our coaches. Most of us left the program worse off than we came in. It's more than a scam. It's fraud.
