Once a year Marie Forleo opens the doors to her B-School course: a 6-week, interactive video-based training program that claims to teach smart, effective online marketing strategies to business owners who want more sales and more impact from their online presence. But what’s it really like in B-School? In today’s episode I talk to a group of B-School alumni about their experiences. What they loved and hated, whether it was worth the money, who they would recommend it to, and much more. Rather than reading highly polished testimonials, join us for an insider’s view to find out what four alumni really want you to know about the course. As background to this episode, it’s worth noting that historically Marie Forleo offered a generous affiliate scheme so many people signed up for B-School via an affiliate who was also offering their own program or course as a bonus. I took B-School back in 2013 and at that time there was a community run Facebook group, which was then taken over by Team Forleo and used as the main alumni group for B-Schoolers. In 2020, Marie Forleo made a number of wrong turns in the group in response to Black Lives Matter and eventually decided to exit the group completely, leaving it to the community. At the current time it is understood that B-School will no longer have a Facebook community or an affiliate program. The guests on today’s show are Astrid Ferguson, Carla Diaz, Charelle Griffith and Darci Ellenberger.  Visit Angel Rated to read dozens of independent reviews of B-School from them and other alumni. In this episode, we talk about:  What made them want to take the course (03:05) What they loved about B-School (06:16) What was missing or needs improving (09:25) What they got out of it and whether it met their expectations (12:11) Whether it was worth what they paid for it (16:20) Who they think it is ideal for (18:55) The impact it has had on their life and business (22:15) Whether they would recommend it (27:07) What they really want you know about B-School (29:24) Please Review, Subscribe and Share  At Angel Rated, we are all about ratings and reviews, so if you liked this episode, I would love you to rate and review The Angel Rated Show on your favourite podcast platform.
