No! Go somewhere else!

By far the worst investment I have ever made. The Accelerator course is worth $100 for a 4 hour seminar on a Saturday afternoon. Not 11,000. Course in a nutshell: share free knowledge online. Share yourself. Show up consistently, then make paid ads and DM EVERYONE that interacts with your social media posts in any capacity with the goal of getting them on a sales call. The promise of funneling you clients is a complete lie. The funnel is simply them putting your followers and friends into it and saying they are alllllll the potential clients.

HUGE SHOUTOUT TO MY PERSONAL COACH…

HUGE SHOUTOUT TO MY PERSONAL COACH LESLIE 🥰. My experience with IFCA and all the coaches has been out of this world. Little did I know when I first committed to this company my mind was about to be blown on what I could do in my own business.

They have guided me every step of the way and although I have been coaching/training clients for 20+ years, there has been so much that I’ve learned in just a short six months with them.

I would 100% not be where I’m at today with my sales and business strategy if it wasn’t for them.

I also really enjoy what I’m doing, getting clients amazing results and have so much time for my family, which is exactly what I wanted.

I recently completed IFCA and it was…exactly what I needed in my business!~

I recently completed IFCA and it was everything I needed in my business. My biggest hesitation in joining was, of course, the investment. However with knowing the direction I wanted to take my business over the next 6 months and knowing that's exactly what IFCA would help me do, it wasn't a hesitation for long. My biggest problem was very low LCV as I had a profitable initial coaching program but nothing for my clients to ascend into upon completion. IFCA helped me organize and build out my backend offer, make it profitable, and successfully increase my LCV and therefore also my MRR. It also helped me put systems in place that were necessary for my business organization as well as hire my first assistant. With everything clearly outlined it made it easy to plug and play systems into my business. My coach Lacey was incredible - super supportive and understood my business logistically and also my values. I highly recommend this program!

Just Do It

I’ve been in the IFCA program for 5 months now, and it’s the first time I’ve made an investment into a business mentorship. I was hesitant at first, but knowing what I know now, it was well worth it. Learning how to grow and scale your online coaching business has never been more simple. Your success coach will be with you to hold you accountable and make sure you stay on track towards your goals. The only thing I won’t tell you is that it’s easy. You’ll learn that the only person in the way of your growth is yourself. If you put in the work, you will see the results.

Great investment to help you GROW

Great investment to help you get organized and help you focus on growth.

We heard about IFCA through a speech that was given from Jordan and Erin through NCI. Ever since then we were watching then on the sidelines for about 2 years before we decided to invest in business coaching.

Business was actually thriving before IFCA but we had some kinks in the water hose that we needed to unravel to be able to grow even more. Because our business was already doing so well we join right into Legacy

With, Heather, our success coach, we have been able to identify the "elephants" in our business and work through strategically on how to address and solve them. I do want to point out that this company is helping coaches with SALES not the be better COACHES. You need to be a good coach, before you sign on with IFCA and i think this is what most coaches miss.

Our biggest objection with joining IFCA was actually not money, but being sold on something that was not promised. We were very specific about what we wanted from our investment into IFCA and on our initial call we felt that all of our objections were handled very clearly.
We were very specific about Lead generation/ building our AC roster and organization skills and I feel like we have helped with that greatly so far. Nice to have a business plan and sticking to that

In our business now we have a specific plan to what need to be accomplished each month within the business. We have build our business to over 80 clients and we are continuing to grow. We are divining into paid ads to help us grow even further and I don't think that would have been a leap that we took by ourselves. We are learning and growing as we move along and we are happy about the support we are getting.

I feel like our business has the systems in place now to continue to grow into a 7-figure business and that is our goal with continuing with IFCA.

The only reason I gave IFCA a 4 instead of a 5 is that we cant take advantage of all the resources that are provided if you are also working a full time job on top if coaching. This is not on the company more on me and the time that I have to dedicate to the program in its full fruition.

I’m the type of person who has to do a lot of research before I invest into something. When I came across IFCA, I was skeptical, As I am with any online coaching program. I did a little research and found of good reviews, so I decided to move forward with the initial call with IFCA. I was really impressed with the person I spoke to, I wish I could remember his name, but he was extremely professional, clear, and you can tell he was not reading some script. I felt good after talking to him, and after doing more research, I signed on! The information you get from IFCA is insane! They provide so much, to the point where it is overwhelming, because there is literally SO MUCH INFO! But all you have to do is go over a little material each day, and you’ll get plenty. They also set up your CRM, domain, etc. so you don’t have to waste hours doing that yourself. After my first one or two weeks, I signed my first client! And I have been consistently signing on clients ever since. I am very happy with IFCA and highly recommend them to anyone wanting to build or grow their fitness business!

Best investment ever

Coaching has always been the “plan”, but I never actually had a plan. Investing in IFCA was the best decision I’ve ever made. It has given me every tool possible to make what once felt like an impossible and overwhelming goal.. my reality. I’m learning every day and know I have endless resources and people to lean on. I love what I do now and it’s only up from here!

I worked with IFCA for 4 months

I worked with IFCA for 4 months, in the sales call and contract they guaranteed to continue working with me until I made my investment back. At the 4 month mark when the contract ended they wanted me to pay to continue working with them when all they provided was “Increase your prices” and a basic social media strategy for $10,000 USD.

I talked to another student that went through IFCA around the same time and he paid $11,000 and had the same guarantee that wasn’t backed up by anything.

Their pricing is inconsistent, their service is not what they make it out to be or promise and they refuse to give refunds or work with you after the initial 4 months.

Do it! You won't regret it

I knew how to coaching people but I had no idea how to run a successful business. IFCA has helped me set up everything I need for my business and I feel like I have a support system/team so I'm not just drowning on my own. I appreciate them so much and cannot recommend it enough!

If you’re afraid to investment- read this

I hired IFCA right when I decided to start a fitness coaching business because I wanted to do things right. I honestly had the best experience in the initial program that it was a no brainer for me to sign up for another year after. If your goal is to scale your 1:1 fitness coaching business, I would whole heartedly recommend this program.

To put this into perspective, I was able to quit my soul sucking job as a welder (20 years) within 16 weeks and to be honest I really held on as long as I could do to fear- I probably could have quit much sooner. I’ve been able to do what I love, which is help people rebuild themselves with mountain sports and taking over 4 full months off to go backpacking myself, as well as, make over 6 figures in my first year of full time business all while working less then 10 hours a week.

No bull.

If you put in the effort, you will win with this investment.

IFCA changed the game for me

IFCA changed the game for me. I was trying to figure out where to take my fitness business after having my twins and I was led to figure out how to build an online business so i didn’t have to be away from my kids or put them in day care.

After 3 months of IFCA, I’ve been able to restructure my systems that make my life easier, take on more clients, build better equity on social, and have a ton of hope for the future.

IFCA knows EXACTLY what they are doing to make us successful and even as a mom with 3 kids ages 3 and under, my coach Leslie (also a mom) was able to help me figure out how to work on my business and also be present with my family (which was huge for me).

The cost is nothing compared to what you get frm it. I have zero regrets doing this program and I am excited to continue building my business under their guidance and leadership.

No longer nursing after 3.5 months.

Prior to joining IFCA, I had no prior experience in the coaching industry. I am a nurse coming into the program. Although it scared the living crap out of me - I took the leap and I am SO happy I did. I was fearful of the initial investment, but it has been worth every penny.

Working 1:1 with my coach Leslie, has been amazing. She is such a fantastic mentor. She has been supportive from day 1. Especially with being so new to all of this, she has been so patience.

I wanted to have more of a home/life balance while helping client in a proactive way towards their health/fitness. I was burnt out from working in our completely broken health care system. I didn't want to miss out on family time anymore.

Even after 3.5 months in IFCA, I am no longer nursing. I'm home with my children the hours I need to be home. I feel more fufiled than I have in a long time.

I amount I learned in the business world has been insane, but I feel the amount of personal growth I have gained from this is even more. It has pushed me outside my comfort zone in the best way possible, and I feel I'm finally finding my true self.

If you are hesitant to take the leap, just do it. It will be worth it.

Working with IFCA has been incredible

Working with IFCA has been incredible. The support, and curriculum is all fantastic. I’ve been through a lot of programs and I joined thinking that I probably know all of the information in the curriculum, however I was wrong. They really taught me how to become CEO, manager and leader I needed to be at this stage in my business.

I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to learn and grow with them because it really was the next step I needed to grow my business.

Grateful for my coach Lacey who was great and had my back throughout the program!

Joining IFCA was a game changer for my business. Before joining, I had little structure, systems, or strategy set in place.

My coach (Lacey) has helped tremendously with certain obstacles I've gone through and has helped simplify things that I was struggling with.

Before IFCA, I was still doing in-person training full-time on top of working with 18 online clients. Initially i was hesitant to join IFCA due to a negative experience with a different mentorship that I had gone through a couple of years ago, but i knew IFCA was different just from continually seeing their social media posts and listening to their podcast each week.

I finally made the leap, and couldn't be happier with making this investment! I'm 10 weeks in and I've been able to cut my in-person training down to only 1-2 sessions per day (only keeping these clients because they've been with me for years), and now have 33 online clients.

If you're debating on whether or not to join/if it's worth it... trust me when I say you should, and it is worth it

I’ve only been in the IFCA program for 23 days but I can tell you without doubt, this is the best move I’ve ever made for myself, my business, and most importantly…my family!

Working with Nick as my coach has given me a literal step-by-step template to follow to go from $0 to $9200 contracted in my first week of sales calls!!! I’m still trying to wrap my head around the ease and simplicity!

I’ve been in the fitness industry for 19 years and have taught everything from program design to sales to client retention and I’m absolutely blown away by the granular detail to every step, every question, and even unforeseen obstacles!

IFCA is legit! If you’re on the fence about this…JUMP! It’ll be the best leap you’ve ever made!

I came to IFCA with no business

I came to IFCA with no business, no systems, no clients.
I had no idea what was possible.
5 months later, I have doubled my income from last year of in-person coaching. Not only the money, I have the confidence and skills to apply in and out of my business.

My coach, Heather, helped me through every step. IFCA had a template and training for everything. I never had to question what my next move was.

Really grateful to have made this jump and appreciate IFCA so much for the knowledge and skills I am leaving with.

The more you know, the more you grow!

I have been an in person fitness trainer and group fitness instructor since 2010. Now with two little kids I have been wanting to grow and scale without committing all my time to seeing clients in person during set hours.

I had been growing but it was slow and I was sporadic and unfocused and when I finally set up a discovery call it was EVERYTHING that I had been wanting. I certainly thought about it because it was in investment in myself and my business again, but when I realized that I NEEDED this to grow to what I dream I could, then there wasn't really another option.

This program is SO THOROUGH (it's almost overwhelming at how every single thing is thought through!) But with Nick my coach, I was able to keep the focus on what was right in front of me and what was going to be most beneficial moving forward and not get sidetracked.

I also appreciated going through a form of coaching that will be similar to what my clients experience in terms of the feelings and emotions and overwhelm that they might experience. I experienced it too, but a good coach helps continue to re-focus, dial it in and guide through that so now I can confidently look back and understand WHY ever single thing is done the way it is... and it will be the same with the clients I coach.

This isn't for someone who isn't going to push it a bit, who isn't going to listen and BE COACHED or not commit the time.

But it certainly is for someone who Is excited about growth, finding another way than in-person, and being able to grow, scale and help more people with your guidance.

There are opportunities to connect with others doing similar coaching and it is exciting and inspiring and also reassuring that there is plenty of clients for everyone and we just need to be solid in who we are as a coach and person and what we offer.

I was so nervous to invest, but it freakin' works! I have now surpassed what I have invested in less than 14 weeks and I am confident I will be able to keep growing because I now have a support team that is rock solid.

So if you're still thinking...stop. DO IT

IFCA=GROWTH!

IFCA has been an amazing experience, not only have I grown my business but I have grown my interpersonal, coaching, sales and business skills with IFCA. My coach Leslie is an absolute JOY to work with and really supports me with kindness, but also strength and encouragement to conquer my limiting beliefs and is helping me break the chains of corporate america, gain freedom for me and my family. Most importantly they have helped me take my dream of serving, healing and leading and help it come to LIFE!
