Questions
Do I need a marketing background?
No. If you have a page that should be selling and isn't, you have everything you need. Every lesson ends with one check you run on your own page.
Is this psychology theory?
No. Each lesson names the research it draws on, then shows how to use it on a real page. You leave with a scored audit, not notes.
What if it isn't for me?
Full refund within 14 days, as long as you have not submitted the final assignment or received your certificate. See the refund policy.
