Investors Verdict

Mixed

6.7 / 10

A large, established coaching platform with clearly published prices, strong tools and a well-known brand. But coaching is sold on 12-month contracts, complaint platforms show repeated disputes over cancellations and charges, and a 7X ROI money-back guarantee carries terms and conditions buyers should read carefully.

Contracts and the guarantee

Coaching is typically sold on 12-month agreements. Tom Ferry advertises a “7X ROI in Elite Coaching or Your Money Back” guarantee, subject to terms and conditions in the contract.
