Paid $10,000, completed everything, made no money

I joined Brand Builders Academy after being shown a money back guarantee during the sales process. I invested $10,000, which I funded through a loan. A member of the BBA team was aware of my financial situation and still encouraged me to proceed.

I completed the course in full and followed every step as instructed. Despite doing everything the program required, I made no money and did not achieve anywhere near the results advertised.

I am now formally requesting a refund under the guarantee that was presented to me at the point of sale. I would like the BBA team to contact me via the email on my account to resolve this directly

Reply from Brand Builder University

Hi Mounes, I had a look for your details on our system and couldn't find them. We also don't offer 1on1 mentorship -- just a community and group calls. I noticed you left a review on another page which runs a program called Brand Builders Academy, which is where the confusion may be. Please could you update your review for the correct provider? Many thanks.

Amazing Course, Recommend!

This is a big recommend if you like business and want to build something uniqe, before I joined Brand Builder University I luanched a product on amazon and it didnt go as expected and now I have luanched a sucessful product that makes me money! If someone had just told me to join Brand Builder Uni earlier that could have saved me a lot of money and time! I really recommend to join since its a group of people that helps each other and you always get help from Ben Donovan! Everything you need to learn about and start an amazon business is inside the Brand Builder Uni!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A great experience and a confidence booster.

It has been a great experience working with the Brand Builder University. Learning everything has still been overwhelming but with their support and materials, I am finally at a point where I can consider this part of the journey manageable and unavoidable as the newfound confidence that they have given me has left me no room for procrastination. The only reason I haven't given five start is because I have so far only gone through the live sessions and have yet to determine the quality and maintenance of communication after the initial training; so far, I have high hopes.

Thank you Ben for this course

Thank you Ben for this course, it really has opened my eyes towards branding and starting my own PL business.
It’s not a get quick rich scheme rather a long term legacy and a steady growth with wealth!

Brand building at its finest...

I started with Ben back in January 2021, I was part of the brand builder challenge which was over one week.

I decided to take the next step and sign up to Ben's Brand Builder Uni and its been one of the best decisions I have made. I knew nothing at all about FBA when I started, I have now launched my own brand with 3 products. Its early days with my brand but with Ben and the BBU community behind me anything is possible.

If you are wanting to get rich and be driving around in a Ferrari in the next 12 months then this isn't likely going to be the course for you. We are building brands/business's here.

Everything I was looking in a FBA training

Choosing Ben's course was one of the best decisions I have taken in my FBA journey, Each and every topic has been explained with no fluff, He has covered every minute detail which should get you up and running quite quickly. The resource section is super helpful and what I like the most is the community he has built with a great bunch of people supporting each other through the process. I can recommend his course to anyone looking to start FBA.

Ben donovan is a great teacher

Ben donovan is a great teacher I could almost listen to him 24/7. All the course info is great and indepth and if you need help you just need to email him and he'll get back to you. I can't recommend this course enough.

Top Course

I wanted to invest in a course however most of the courses available are focused on USA market. This is a great course if you are looking to start Amazon FBA in the UK. Ben is always there to help and along with great course contents, there are many helpful materials and spreadsheets available for download. There are also weekly coaching calls and a great Facebook community.

Fantastic course from a great coach

This was a great course containing a ton of valuable information for any aspiring Amazon seller. Ben walks you through each step of the way of what is required to be successful at Amazon FBA.

During the Brand Builder Challenge one of the best things Ben did was to include accountability homework for each person taking the challenge. This meant that it became very interactive and ensured each Challenger got the most out of the experience, and took action on their journey. This also created a real sense of community.

Ben is such a positive and encouraging teacher, and is refreshingly open and honest about his experiences with Amazon. It's so valuable having someone who has been there and done it, and who is passionate about Amazon FBA. Ben is also very available to support those on the course and genuinely cares about their success.

I couldn't recommend working with Ben enough!

This is the best FREE training you will find if you are considering starting your journey or learning more about selling on Amazon. Ben is clearly very passionate about helping others achieve success and has put a lot of time, thought and effort into the Challenge.

Ben Donovan's program is, without a doubt, the best program out there!

Ben Donovan's program is excellent. It is well laid out, easy to understand, clearly described in easy to follow videos, and provides you with all of the tools and knowledge you need to get started. Ben is down to earth, sincere and genuinely wants to help you get started on your FBA journey, but more than that, he really wants to help you build your own brand that not only can earn you cash now, but more importantly, can build you an asset for the future. I looked at other course providers (there are lots on YouTube!) but after reading a recommendation about Ben, decided to give BBU a try, and I have not regretted that decision. Ben's program is reasonably priced and he is very transparent about everything he offers. If you want to learn how to get started in building a FBA business then I'd definitely recommend the BBU!

I took part in one of Ben's Brand Builder Challenges not knowing what to expect and never having previously studied the subject matter of the challenge. Ben has created an informative , nurturing walkthrough style of education that fosters learner collaboration. The courses bring you out of your shell assigning you tasks that take you out of your comfort zone essentially opening you up to new experience and learning which are both then delivered in an interactive engaging format.

In a League of its own!

There is no other course on the planet that combines transparency, honesty, wisdom, strategy and integrity like this in the art of brand building. A roadmap that leaves no question unanswered and removes the guesswork!

The Donovan’s are world class!

Ben Donovan stands out in this field in that he doesn't haven't a Lambo or offer you marketing BS :-) He's an 'Amazon Master' who cuts through the crap and gives you honest empirical advice on how to start selling on Amazon :-)

Brand Builder University is a no brainer, do it!

I would highly recommend Brand Builder University! Ben and his team present relevant no BS practical information for new and established Amazon Sellers. The most important thing is Ben is focused on getting his students to "take action", isn't that what we all need?
