The author is yet to validate his claim that he did in fact attend the event and consequently his claim cannot be verified.

I also attended this event and will NOT be wasting another two days of my life on this despicable scam. First they tried to brainwash us with slogans like “dumb minds doubt” and “nothing costs like inaction”. Then all we get is a parade of salesmen pitching their dodgy products to us using every sales trick in the book. I don’t know how these people sleep at night. They all live by the motto “never give a sucker an even break”.

I was in James Schramko lesson and i dissapointed very much. It’s a scam to take money from people. He is not saying nothing useful. I am sure it’s scam. He is not marketing guru. He have a lot of websites and making money from beginner’s.
I have tried to contact this poster to confirm the validity of his claim but received no response. In contrast to his claim I have heard only rave reviews of James’ last workshop & am looking forward to attending myself in September.
I have nothing to hide. I have my website too and i have a lot of web projects. I went to listen of Schramko, because it was very interesting. I thought, that he is professional and he will tell a lot of useful things. Most of the time, he showd other people videos with his advertisement. They was talking how James good in Internet bussiness. In the hall was mostly senior people. They dont understand about internet and marketing to much, that why Schramko is like a God there. He was selling his “Fast Web Formula” how 997 euro. It was happening in Dublin (April).
I can tell you much more, but i think that it is waisting of time. Read and look yourself about SEO and other stuff. Dont pay attention on this guy. He is twenty first century scam.
Sorry about that Michael, my bad. I just wasn’t sure if you had really attended, or were a competing marketer wanting to bring James down a notch since you didn’t respond to the email I sent privately. I very much appreciate your comments here however, and confer respect that you are also a webmaster. For my part I hereby rescind my previous comment, although I will leave it visible so the thread makes sense, I am fairly well convinced you are genuine and again I wish to thank you for your contribution. All the best, Michael Smale.
Michael (the complainer, no Smale),
I have plenty of case studies from successful students. When the audience is full with new people I cannot discuss the advanced methods or the one or two people like you who already have websites. You event mentioned this in your comments.
If you want to talk to me you can reach me at http://www.superfasthelp.com. I will explain to you this in a way you understand.
I think your comments are inaccurate, disappointing and defamatory. Why do you post anonymously if you have nothing to hide?
If you want the TRUTH why don’t you see the attendees feedback here: http://www.youtube.com/user/fastwebformula
I’m sure James doesn’t need anyone to ‘defend’ him as such but here’s my 2 cents worth…
I stumbled across James Schramko about two years ago when I was looking to buy a particular software product. He was offering a bonus of a cheatsheet type report to go with the product for people that bought it through his very clearly explained affiliate link.
I did so. It was, and still is, a valuable document that I still refer to today.
Since then I have bought other of his own products and services. They have provided good value in my opinion. Because I think they’re good products, I now also recommend them as an affiliate.
Sure, James is a good marketer and knows how to successfully implement internet marketing techniques. This means other people want to understand/learn/copy from him in order to do likewise. That is itself a market he caters to with some of the products and services he provides.
His workshops (and DVD/online versions of them) typically provide a breakdown of the areas that need to be considered and addressed when developing an internet based business model. He then goes through the various components and elements of each area showing how and what to do.
Some people may get more value from what he offers than others perhaps. Some may think they know it all anyway (really??), others just don’t implement anything so never move forward. There are others though who do implement though and so gain the benefits.
James runs a paid internet coaching forum. I am a member. It’s where internet marketers of all levels can ask and get answers from other members (and more often than not from James as well) on anything from technical issues to internet marketing models and business strategies.
It’s very useful. It provides great value. There’s no tie-in if you find you disagree though.
I have been in it long enough to see many others (as well as myself) question, discuss and implement strategies and techniques that have led to success.
You can probably find some of the techniques and methods involved discussed elsewhere on the net for free.
But you likely wont find it all in one place, you likely wont have anyone’s reputation and integrity to back it up, and you’ll likely spend ages looking for and disseminating all the info from the various good/poor sources out there.
That’s a great way to end up going in circles and doing nothing productive. I’d rather pay a little for solid, sound information and implement instead of wasting time doing nothing.
I have met James and I think he is a decent guy. His stuff provides value to those who want to both learn and implement. Whether you succeed is upto you and your own efforts – ultimately of course you have responsibility for yourself in business – but it’s great guidance he provides to help you get there in my opinion.
Just my 2 cents like I said…..
