Hi guys, thanks for tuning in for another review with Get Free With Annie. That’s me, I’m Annie and my channel and blog is all about ways to GET FREE. What do I mean? TIME freedom is the main thing, and FINANCIAL freedom follows that. You can’t really have time freedom without financial freedom. Time freedom, means your time is yours. You’re not trading your time to someone else for a dollar amount of their choosing. And that happens when you have Financial Freedom, meaning that you control your finances instead of being controlled by them. Let’s GET FREE together.
**My Personal Recommendation** ?
How To Make a Full Time Income While You Sleep.

Using 100% FREE traffic, and Done-For-You Content.
The slow way. (There is no fast way)
The real way.
No Fluff.
My favorite course.
What do you have to lose? Besides 40 more years of a job you don’t like.

Many of my reviews are done through hours and hours of research. Scouring the web, and youtube, and other reviews, and testimonials, etc, etc, etc, to give you the best mash up of Non-Biased information as possible. I do not buy every single one of the courses I review. But I do spend A LOT of time and put in a lot of effort, to give you the most honest and complete review I can. Because I have been where you are. And it sucks not knowing what to do next. I recommend starting here. ➡️https://www.getfreewithannie.com/growthcommander

-Lacking SEO training

-Not very passive, a lot of work involved
-Speaking with clients and being a salesmen (not a con for some people)
-You will go through a lot of rejection, gaining clients is a numbers game
FAQ’s
-How much do I charge a client? Between $500-5000 per month, depending on what you are doing for them. But on average, around $1000 per month, plus they are responsible for ad spend.
-How much should a client spend on ads per month? Somewhere between $100-1000 per month depending on the client
-Do I need my own website? No you don’t, but it would be a good idea after you get a couple few clients, so that you can seem more legit and professional
-Does this program involve cold calling? That is one way to get clients, but there are more ways taught in the training. You can also pay more to have one of the mentors help you with sales if you don’t like the sales side of it.
-How many hours per day does this business take? At least a couple hours per day, but the more time you put in, the more successful you will be. Its only about 50% passive.
-Can I just create facebook ads and call some local business owners and charge them? Do I really need this course? No you don’t. You can definitely do it on your own, especially if you already have an “in” with a specific niche. Like if you are an office manager at a dentist office, offer to do some marketing for your boss and charge him/her. However, its going to take a bit longer to see money and its going to be a bit harder without all the software tools, training, and support.
Testimonials/Other reviews
-Really good testimonials and reviews
-ippei.com/local-marketing-vault/ does a really in depth review of this course. And he doesn’t usually do positive reviews, so the fact that he gave this course almost 5 stars really says something
-5 stars on trustpilot
What does it cost?
-There is a foundation package, a core package, and a VIP package
-The exact cost is unknown, but I know one person who paid $3500 in 2017 and one person who said it was around $5000
-Also a review from someone in 2020 said “You can expect to pay anywhere from $3k-6k”
-Also you need money for paid ads every month. Minimum a couple hundred bucks per month to start.
Refunds/Guarantees?
-72 hours to request refund
Final Thoughts
-Incredibly in depth. Not just a course. An entire business setup.
-Feels expensive, but most people spend over $50k to start their first business
-Not a passive income business until maybe a couple years in and you have scaled to the point of having several employees
-Good depending on what you want your online business to look like
Final Verdict
-I do recommend this course for some people. If you like talking with clients and making sales and you want to start a local marketing agency, and you want every single step laid out for you, with a great support community, and you have around $5000 to invest, then this is for you. It’s definitely the most in depth and complete local marketing/lead generation course I have ever seen. There is a reason it is around $5000. They are showing you how to set up an entire marketing agency.
-On that note. You are setting up an entire marketing agency. Its not a side thing. You need a lot of time and energy to devote to this. You need to be ok with selling yourself to clients on a regular basis, you need to be ok with getting rejected, you need to have a super devoted mindset. You need to have a minimum of $5000 available.
-If you want a slightly less expensive and energy consuming lead generation course, I will provide a link below. This is a course I have taken and it is a good one.
-If you are like me, and after reading this you realize you want a more passive way to make money online, because you don’t like selling things and you don’t really like talking to people and clients that much, then I will provide a link for a course that will let you do that. I have taken this one as well, and it is also work, but it’s a lot less work. Its much more passive. And you don’t have to talk to anyone.
Thanks for tuning in… go out and get free.
I hope this review and the rest of my reviews help you to make the right decision for you.
