In consideration of Your access to the Program, You may choose between a single payment of 5,947 Euros (due 3 days after your first session) or 3 monthly payments of 2,297 Euros. If You select the payment plan, You must pay the initial payment 3 days after your first session, and then Your selected payment method will be automatically charged the following 2 payments on a monthly basis, for a total payment of 6,891 Euros. If You opt for monthly payments, You will remain responsible for those payments unless You obtain a refund according to the Program's Refund Policy set forth below. You may not cancel or avoid these payments except through the Refund Policy. In the event that any payment is not made, the Company shall immediately suspend Your access to the Program.

PAYMENT PLAN AUTHORIZATION

If You elect for the payment plan, You hereby authorize the Company to charge Your credit card or debit card according to the terms set forth in the Fees section above.

REFUND POLICY AND SATISFACTION GUARANTEE

The Company offers a thirty (30) day money-back guarantee for the Program, with a refund policy applicable to a number of unused modules following the initial thirty (30) day period. You are required to meet four (4) requirements to qualify for a refund. 

The money-back guarantee is governed by the following terms:

1. First (1st) Module Satisfaction Check

- Payment is due three (3) days following Your first (1st) module session.

- If You choose not to continue, You must notify us in writing via email to [email protected] within three (3) days after Your first (1st) module session to avoid any charges.

2. Thirty (30) Day Quality and Value Guarantee

- The 30-day risk-free Quality and Value Guarantee is valid for the first thirty (30) days starting with the date of the first (1st) booked session.

- Full refund requests must be submitted in writing via email to [email protected] within a 30-day period starting from the date of the first (1st) booked session.

3. Continuous Satisfaction Assurance

- This policy applies after the initial thirty (30) day period has expired.

- Refunds will be calculated based on a number of unused modules.

- Refund requests must be submitted in writing.

4. Two (2) Months Success Extension Pledge

- Extended support can commence two (2) weeks after the conclusion of the twelve (12) weeks program.

- The extension includes two (2) live one-one-one zoom sessions per month and access to additional resources.

- Requests for the Success Extension Pledge must be submitted in writing via email to [email protected].

We want You to be satisfied with Your purchase, but we also know that Your success will hinge on whether You put in the work necessary to succeed. Thus, we offer a money-back guarantee on purchases of the Program, but You must demonstrate that You have attempted to complete and apply the information contained in the Program. 

Requirements: The guarantee applies when You demonstrate full commitment throughout the program by adhering to the following conditions:

1. Session Attendance

You must be present and actively participate in every scheduled session. Attendance is crucial to ensure continuous progress and to fully benefit from the coaching provided. Please note: If You do NOT cancel a session at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance, it is considered ‘USED.’

2. Timely Task Submission

You are required to complete and submit all assigned tasks at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to each session. This ensures that each upcoming module and session is laser-focused on Your needs, leveraging the insights gained from Your completed assignments.

3. Customization Requests

You must provide short customization requests after each module and for the assignments You receive to ensure the experience is tailored to Your specific needs.

4. Rescheduling and Cancellation of Sessions

If you need to reschedule or cancel an upcoming session, you must provide at least forty-eight (48) hours notice. Failure to provide such notice will result in the session being considered "USED," and you will not be entitled to reschedule or receive any refund for this particular session.

Void Conditions: The guarantee shall be rendered null and void if any one (1) or more of the following conditions occur:

- You do NOT attend and actively participate in every scheduled session.

- You do NOT submit module assignment at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to each session.

- You do NOT provide customization requests for sessions and assignments.

- You do NOT cancel a session at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance (the session is therefore considered ‘USED’).

If the guarantee is voided, You can continue with the program, but You will no longer be eligible for any refunds or extended free support.

By clearly outlining these conditions, we ensure that both You and the mentor are aligned and committed to achieving the objectives You are striving for.

To claim a refund:

To be eligible for a full refund you must submit Your request within thirty (30) days of the purchase. If Your request is made after thirty (30)-day period, Your refund will be calculated based on the number of unused modules. For installment plans as you are paying for four (4) modules in advance, refunds will be issued starting from the fourth (4th) unused module, based on the number of unused modules.

You may request Your money back in writing via email to [email protected]. That email must reference the Program, the date of Your purchase, and the email and name associated with the purchase. You must also demonstrate that You have attempted to implement the program by fulfilling all required actions, but did not achieve any improvements.

Upon determining that You are entitled to a refund pursuant to this policy, the Company will promptly issue an instruction to its payment processor to issue the refund. The Company does not control its payment processor and will not be able to expedite any refunds.

If You receive a refund of any purchase through this money-back guarantee, You shall be entitled to keep all materials and bonuses that You have received up to the date of the refund. However, You shall not be entitled to any outstanding bonuses or additional materials that are part of the remaining portion of the program that You have canceled.

You agree that the Company has not made any guarantees about the results of taking any action, whether recommended in the Program or not. The Company provides educational and informational resources that are intended to help participants in the Program succeed. You nevertheless recognize that Your ultimate success or failure will be the result of Your own efforts, Your particular situation, and innumerable other circumstances beyond the control and/or knowledge of the Company.

You also recognize that prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Thus, the results obtained by others - whether clients of the Company or otherwise - applying the principles included in the Program do not guarantee that You or any other person or entity will be able to obtain similar results.
