Chris is "selling" more than Grant Funding information

[Monika Forberger]

After three hours of "Selling" the Grant Funding in his workshop (with only an eight-minute break) we were then bombarded with a 45-minute MASSIVE SALES PITCH for Melaleuca.  Christ stated emphatically that this was NOT a multi-level marketing company.  Check the Internet -- it is definitely at multi-level marketing company.  On checking information in the Grant Funding Workshop NONE of the information was of any help to me. One for womens business funding firmly states it DOES NOT provide GRANTS, and that no one should pay for Grant Funding information. Several other "leads" were all for "community" organizations.  I doubt anyone in the room was representing a "community." They were all individuals hoping to find a way to get some grant monies. Good luck with that, folks. I cancelled both the Grant Funding application AND the Melaleuca application. Clever that Chris Johnson waits until the end of the day, when we are probably tired and overwhelmed with information about Grant funding, that he goes into overdrive with the sales pitch for a company which has a fairly good reputation, but his information was misleading and his associate from the United States (who did most of the presentation for Melaleuca) just rammed information at us.  His is a very slick sales pitch, and the offer of FREE gifts and a free cruise (hope he keeps his word on that one) were enticing.  But at the end of the day, it was just that -- a SLICK SALES PITCH.  Very high powered and misleading.

Of course everyone has their opinion but I have to say something after reading your post. I bought Chris’s course a couple years ago and attended his other classes and have nothing but rave reviews. He is the real deal. He really helps people. I have gotten 3 grants using his system and I was frustrated tying to do it on my own before I met him. He showed me how to do it properly. He does a lot of research for his clients. At his 2 day training we were able to meet several other students of his who all got different kinds of grants with his help. My experience is he is all about trying to help people. His 3 hour seminar was free and he gives really good information at it. You can’t expect to go to a free seminar and not hear an offer for courses or services. He emailed me prior to my first 3 hour free seminar he would tell me other ways to help me make more money that was not government grants and asked everyone in the audience if it was ok for him to tell us about it before he did. I think almost everyone really wanted to hear about it too. Anyone who has tried an MLM can see it was not an MLM offer. You can’t make everyone happy, but my opinion is most people were happy at the end of his seminar.
