This is Robert Berry's GROWTH Story:

Before Growth Academy I had three primary struggles with branding myself and building my business.

The first issue I had was knowing what kind of content to post that would resonate with people.

The second problem I had was consistency, forming those habits that would lead to consistent content.

And then the third problem I had was, who do you talk to when you have questions? Knowing who to talk to, and having a group of people to just bounce ideas off of.

So let me tell you how it started...

In January of 2020, my business became a full time thing for me. Now, we know what happened in March of 2020, the pandemic hit.

Imagine being a speaker and a presenter and a coach, and a trainer, where you used to have in person interactions... and now you're trying to build your business in the middle of a pandemic.

I ended up finding a lot of programs that promised a lot of different things.

Some of them promised to help you grow your audience by 500,000 followers in five days, okay, I'm over exaggerating that song. But they promised to help you make your first million, but yet they knew nothing about your business. These things seemed very gimmicky. I ended up speaking with several people, one of which told me that she could help me make a lot of money but only if I paid her a lot of money.

It didn't feel right. And it didn't seem right. There were a lot of empty promises that weren't very tangible.

And then, in November of 2020, I found Growth Academy. There was some kind of post on LinkedIn that I saw, and honestly, before that, I had no idea who Shanee Moret was. Then I started researching and saw how many followers she had and saw what she had done.

Now, the initial posting ourselves for Growth Academy, I was skeptical of it because it was maybe 500 bucks for an entire year. You go from somebody asking you, to sell your firstborn child, to someone who's now asking you to give what seems like pennies to help you grow your audience.

I was stuck, not knowing which way to go, I signed up for Growth Academy in November of 2020. I didn't do anything with it. December of 2020, I didn't do anything with it. January, I figured it's a good time to start doing something, you know, I'd only paid a couple 100 bucks for it. And if I learned something great. And if I didn't, not a huge loss. I remember my first meeting, there was some really good techniques offered and I began employing those techniques within the first three weeks. 

By the third week of January, I got my first client for 2021 without having to sell or without having to do a pitch without having to do much of anything except post good content.

I was learning what good content was in Growth Academy.  By February, I started getting more clients and I started getting better traction. My first problem, knowing what kind of content to post, was solved.

Forming consistent habits became something that was easy because not only did we have Shanee training and showing us, we were in a community of people who were pushing us. If you went a day without posting somebody from the group would reach out to you. It was the accountability that I needed.

I went about 60 days of posting every single day. So now the habit is ingrained. And now I just love it.

Between January and April of 2021...

• I launched a bootcamp.
• I started a podcast.
• I started a live weekly show on LinkedIn.
• I got a few clients that I never thought I'd be able to get.
• My book hit the top 50 in Amazon in the US and number one in France.
• I had people doing unsolicited reviews of my book, and of me as a trainer...

All because of the tools and techniques that I learned in Growth Academy. AND all because of the people that I've met in Growth Academy.

So here's what I'd say...

If you're looking for something that's transformational. That's life changing, life altering, where you learn some techniques that can help you be better in your business, but also meet some people that help you become a better person, there's nothing out there like this community that Shanee Moret has created...

I have an extended family.

It's a life altering experience.

I'll just leave it at that.
