In this episode, Alex & Pooh sit down to talk about scams, specifically online course scams and courses that are actually pyramid schemes. There are so many of them out there that it is now making people so suspicious that it is holding many back from pursuing financial freedom. Alex & Pooh explain how to navigate this situation – how to avoid the scammers and still gain the knowledge and support you need to succeed.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Lots of people still want to work for themselves, but because they no longer trust
  online coaches and course providers many of them are giving up on their dream.
• There are still some genuine course providers and coaches out there.
• Before you sign up for anything, do your research.
• Find out who the course provider is and go online to check that they have actually
  been successful in the field they are talking about.
• Understand how pyramid and Ponzi schemes work and the many forms that are used for these types of scams. These are universally used scam methods, so recognising and avoiding them is important.
• Some courses are just pyramid schemes. People who buy are required to get others to buy too, at which point they get paid a commission. Often, these courses contain no usable knowledge but the drive to make money leads people to recommend them.
• Pooh & Alex explain in detail how pyramid and Ponzi scheme courses operate and how to avoid them.
• Be realistic, stop looking for a get rich scheme. Every successful business takes
  work, sacrifice and time to grow.
• Double check that the business model you are considering learning is for you. If you want to travel a lot, a business that requires you to stay in one place all year is not a good option.

BEST MOMENTS
“There´s so much overwhelm, it makes people suspicious.”
“You start thinking everything´s bulls**t, it´s a scam.”
“Make sure that what they're selling or offering is something that they actually practice themselves.”
“A lot of people do not want to admit that they have been lied to.”
“You need to look at what is working today but also have an interest in what you’re going into.”
“Generating and selling leads to Airbnb hosts or serviced accommodation hosts is a win-win business. ”
“I can go to a beach bar…and just sit there generating leads.”
