Guru Blueprint.. anyone taking it?

8 replies
I'm currently invested in Eben's Guru Blueprint. Is it just me, or does the CONTENT seem EXCELLENT, but the "design" / "execution" seem super haphazard and have almost no logical flow?

In short, I feel there are "five courses" going on at once..

1. Wake up productive.. except that the videos aren't coming out when they are supposed to (at least, I don't think they are.)

2. The Guru Bootcamp Bonus Videos.. Great content. But -when- are we supposed to watch these? I'm trying to barrel thru them and take notes.

3. The Guru BluePrint Training Videos.. There are NONE in there right now. I'm guessing these are where the replay's of what's occurred on TUESDAY night will be stored?

4. Tech Tool Training Courses.. Good, got it. This makes sense. Once a week. Beginner stuff. Fine.

5. Lou Dalo's calls on Friday.. Okay.. Where do these replays live?

6. Eben emails extra hours of "bonus" content.. umm.. great stuff.. but WHEN are we supposed to watch these with regard to where we ARE?

I just see no "flow".. no "Start here.. here's the middle.. here's the end." Then the RESULT... You have a new Info product to take on the world.

Am I alone... (which is totally fine..) or does anyone else taking the Guru Blueprint feel the same way?

    Hey Jeremy,

    I'm working through Guru Bluprint - I agree that things could certainly be better organised.

    I'm taking a "just in time approach"... I'm giving priority to the Wake Up Productive program which I think is superb and the Guru Blueprints themselves (i'll refer to the Tech Tools Training if and when anything crops up that I'm not familiar with, with the Guru Bootcamp i'm snatching an hour here and there)

    I wasn't even aware of Lou Dalo's calls until I logged in over the weekend and I haven't received any emails regarding further bonuses or otherwise since I've been a member - I got a canned response from support about help subscribing to general newsletters... and then silence.

    How many emails have you received from Eben? - I'll try and get this resolved on Tuesdays webinar.

    Even though I have not bought Eben's GB, I can tell you that the content would be excellent. However, you need to let Eben's support know about the feedback and let Eben know about the same some way.

    Wake Up Productive itself is an excellent product, hands down. GB will be brilliant.

      As they might say in the famous song from "A Chorus Line..":

      Dance: 10.
      Looks: 3.

      I seriously cannot figure out any "pattern", "Strategy", or "Roadmap" on what to do, when to do it, and what should be done FIRST, SECOND, THIRD.. what I should do when an "interrupt" occurs (a weekly "bonus video.").

      To add on top of that.. I also signed up for the "one time offer" of the Guru Mastermind program.. and.. well, the customer support hasn't been able to successfully explain to me the "benefits" of the extra Mastermind program (other than another entire *SEA* of content.. once again.. I have no "roadmap" on how to approach THAT content, or the 18 (yes, 18) DVDs I got as an extra bonus signup.)

      Lastly.. The video SET (Guru Bootcamp) vidoes.. only SOME are available on the website.. I understand that the Guru Bootcamp is a full DVD set.. but only 6 hours or so is available. Weird.

      So.. Dance 10. Looks 3.

      A "map" would make this all a lot better so I could know what my suggested roadmap would be is.

      I wouldn't say "mindmap..." I would say "roadmap."

      I guess what I'm saying is... I got a HUUUUUUUGGE amount of items when I signed / paid up. So much so, that I literally don't know where to start first, what to do next, etc.

      If the program is supposed to take you 90 days to enhance your Info product skills.. superduper. Then, maybe, what should I be doing on day 1-7, 8-15, 15-20, 20-25 etc?

      I'm not an affiliate. Just some random customer.

      That's what I'm after. Do you think your contact is still the right person to ping?

    I just sent in a request for a refund for GURU Blueprint.

    The customer service was terrible. I had, had problems not being able to access content and also consistently getting kicked out to the main member login page.

    Thus, after multiple email requests for assistance in resolving my problem, all to no avail, I finally decided to just request a refund.

    Stay away from this product. And, if you have purchased it and are still within the trial period, get your money back before it is too late.

    Personally, I'm not going to cancel. I feel that the MATERIAL, is excellent. Even the "execution" of the material is pretty good.. Calls on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday... makes sense. I was simply befuddled about "where to start" really... since there were other videos in the portal, PLUS extra videos popping up, PLUS the Wake Up Productive.

    I kinda feel like I've got a bit of a rhythm now... I make the Tuesday call, skip the Thursday call (most is, as stated, for beginners) .. and.. Well, I'm never home on Friday nights, so I listen to that in replay.

    I've already put several pieces of the course to use.. mostly around customer focusing and niche creation. I feel I'm already decent at this, and it gave me a little more to think about.

    So, again.. I feel it's worth the (pretty decent) price requested. A roadmap / battleplan would have been helpful, but I feel I'm still getting my money's worth out of the program.

    I agree with the people here. The content has been pretty strangely organized, although they have recently re-organized everything in the members area and clarified where everything is.

    Guru Bootcamp = watch whenever you can - ideally before you start the Blueprint training
    Guru Blueprints = go through in order. Right now there appears to be 2 videos for each "module"
    Wake Up Productive = watch 1 video per week
    Lou's Coaching Calls = just extra general training you can listen to/participate whenever.

    I have the product, so let me know if you have any other questions

    I'm a member of Guru Blueprint and I'm currently trying to finish my first eBook, with plans on having a monthly membership site in the works.

    Because of my work schedule I've been looking to outsource product creation to someone with an understanding of psychology and or NLP.

    I recently got burned by a team I had awarded this project to on guru.com so I'm a little behind in reaching my target launch date. July 1'st 2011.

    If anyone out there is interested in working on this project just hit me up with a P.M.

    My budge took a hit when the team doing me the way that the did but I'm supplying about $9,000 in training programs that I'm investing in some lucky some one who is willing to work with me on this project.
