I hate to be the voice of dissent - but the course is VERY basic. It says, hit up your current network - friends, family, etc. Also mentions trying to explain the benefits of self-directed IRS, because thats where a lot of potential prospects could move their money from a traditional 401k/ira into, so they could invest with you. I guess its an ok course if you have no clue. I also have his advanced course - which gets into presentations - however, there are SEC compliance regulations regarding the marketing and presenting of investment opportunities. So the best game plan is to do sit-downs in 1-on1 or small groups. I got the course so I could utiilize his presentation, I have since acquired other power points that are just as good for less or no money.
To be fair - I bought his first course at a Larry Goins Investorpalooza - It came with an offer for help via e-mail - he wasn't much help, so I wasn't happy with him, and subsequently left a bad taste in my mouth. Plus in his presentation he wasn't very forthcoming about the HUGE SEC exposure of marketing to new prospects. I think that was misleading by NOT sharing that information. I felt that he did not follow through with his commitment. So instead of paying full price for the Advanced Course - I bought it on Ebay.
