Carolin Soldo Coaching & Events

I had no idea how to market my business online before I signed up for Carolin's program. The weekly coaching Q&A calls were helpful because I found other people in the same boat as I was in – and we built a community of supporters. The mindset and Facebook ads coaching was extremely helpful. Tara Zirker, Andrea Tonetti and MorningStar Ramsey were attentive, drilled down to figure out what the problem really is and helped me solve it. They were supportive, respectful and helpful. Carolin is a brilliant marketer and has been through all the stuff we are going through. Her insight is spot on and she has our best interests at heart. Jess and Melissa are also terrific and offer great advice. This is an investment for your business, and if you already know how to build your sales funnel and advertise on social media, then you don't need to participate. But, if you don't – this is a program that will give you real value for your investment.

Great program to implement building an online marketing funnel. The copywriting review and FB ad training are really helpful. The weekly Q&A calls and the FB community are also really helpful for working through the inevitable challenges that come up when learning something new.

I would not recommend Carolin's Brand Your Passions program to any coaches that I know. With a background in marketing & technology, there was very little value added provided for the steep cost of the program.

Specifically, the technology recommendations are out to lunch. They are recommending super expensive or technically difficult programs with software integrations which are complex for people not familiar with them. I did not use any of their tech recommendations and feel sorry for the people who are spending thousands of dollars a month on systems they don't need.

The marketing concepts were basic. There are some good Facebook marketing tutorials, but I got just as much out of the free Facebook resources online. The copy team reviews might as well not have been provided for all the value they added – all of the feedback I was given was contradictory to info provided in the *free bonus* Hook & Copy webinars.

There was some great sales training by one third party guest, but not provided by anyone within the program.

Also, there is ZERO one-on-one time available with Carolin in this program, which is not how it is marketed. There is access once a week (maybe depending on her schedule) in a group Q&A session, which is monopolized by tech questions.

I would recommend Carolin and her team to anyone who wants to soak up everything there is to learn. Each coach brings so much knowledge to the group from their own expertise. This has definitely been a learning experience all the way to the top! Thank you!

Great program, coaches and community. In my opinion the entire course should be offered over 6 months rather than 4. Otherwise invaluable information and support.

New to the business and coaching world, I acquired a tremendous amount of knowledge and insight from Carolin and learned much about myself and my business. BYP was certainly worth the investment from the technical aspect, but it needed tweaking in the area of meaningful support & coaching. As I learned the on-line aspect, I struggled with the pace and time frame in which the information was presented and needed to be completed. I seriously worked 10 hours days for 4+ months! BYP needed to be a 6-8 month program in order to 'really' learn the content and enjoy the journey. I discovered I prefer 1:1 coaching for the effectiveness and personal connection and not Carolin's group coaching. Overall, I wish I had been able to connect with Carolin more and enjoy the journey better.

Not enough personal coaching for the high ticket price. I didn鈥檛 feel personally supported with my issues to develop a coaching program. I felt she was all about the money, once I bought the program I didn鈥檛 get the help nor personal support needed to succeed. The program was hard to keep up with because of the lack of real support. I feel I wasted my hard earned money.

I found another high ticket coaching program that is much more effective.

Completely excited and very much looking forward to massive success I joined the team. Suddenly, my dad is rushed to the small town hospital and transferred to Baptist. Less than four weeks later he died. I literally lost the month of September 2017. When having an online coaching session it was set for a time while I was at work. It was not conducive to my work environment to have a video on while I was to be at work so I tried the phone call. It worked and then I explained the death of my father. I was gifted with extra time by Carolin's team; however, I was overcome with emotion, schedule catch up, funeral arrangements, executrix responsibilities, etc. and was unable to focus on my own business. Needless to say I gave away the $8,000. which is money I truly wish I had in my account right now. I believe this program is great but the timing did not line up.

I 100% recommend!! Carolin and her team are all such amazing and caring people. They know what it takes to build a successful online business and they share every detail and secret because they truly believe in you succeeding! So proud to have Carolin and her team as my mentors!

If you are brand new to coaching you will learn much from this but if you have experience already then save your money.

I regret spending the money on this course because all it did was put me deeper in debt. The sales coach was very pushy and dismissed my concerns about whether I was a good fit for the program.

Brand Your Passions and Passion to Profits Live were both great. I鈥檓 glad I learned how to finally get my coaching business up and running after 1.5 years of not making any money. There is a lot of work involved, but there is also a lot of support. It鈥檚 a great community to be a part of.

I had a really great time. It was so empowering to be around so many women that have been a part of my life. I also felt humbled to meet Carolin, Belinda, Lisa, and Tara in person. I always like to be in the presence of unapologetic women and to have a lifestyle and behavior that I am striving for, modeled to me.
I would have like to have the slides on paper so I could take notes and record things I found important. Other than that small thing, I really had a great time!

Also being in Hollywood was so fun!

Great experience. Learned a lot and had help putting it in place.

While the information and teaching were helpful, the overall strategy did not work. I did everything by the book, and got absolutely NO business after spending thousands of dollars on the course and on advertising. I met with the coaches and consulted with them as much as I could, but the strategy failed to work. And at the end, the comments from the coaches were that if it did not work it was because I was doing it wrong, which I felt was not fair. It's cookie cutter coaching and I've moved on to an individual business coach who works with me one on one, costing less than the 8,000 I spent on BYP. His approach has already gotten results because it's very much focused on ME, not on the strategy he has already established.

When we first started our online Coaching/Consulting business, we thought we knew enough about business and that it would be easy to attract clients, make a ton of money, quit our 9-5 and be set for life! Unfortunately, that was not all the case. There were a lot of moving parts to business, we were on information overload and we didn鈥檛 know how to bring everything together, or the rationale behind each moving part.

There was SO MUCH we didn't know — how certain systems worked, the effectiveness of automation, or why our messages were not consistently resonating with potential clients. We also had no idea about how to truly use FB to advertise, the effectiveness of webinars, why FB groups were meaningful, or which social media platforms were relevant for our business, etc. Therefore, we were not converting clients or generating revenue in our business for TWO YEARS!!! 🙁

We were spending excess time, energy and money on the wrong things at the wrong times with no real method. We were burned out, frustrated and we we came to the realization that we could no longer DO IT ALL ALONE and succeed. We believed in ourselves, we didn't have any doubts that it was possible to turn our dreams into our reality, we just needed to find the solutions to our problems and we were determined to do just that!

We saw an AD from Carolin Soldo as we were scrolling through Facebook one day and then we checked out some of her YouTube videos. After following her for a couple of months, she was consistently saying exactly what we needed to hear, she had experienced similar struggles and her story really resonated with us, so we reached out. After our FIRST conversation with one of her coaches during a discovery call, we KNEW IMMEDIATELY that Carolin's Brand Your Passions (BYP Program) was just the right fit for us, so we didn't hesitate to sign-up and it was by far THE BEST business investment we had ever made!!!

Carolin's team helped us with so much and the coaches have a wealth of knowledge to offer. BYP teaches effective marketing strategies, so you can get real results — we learned the importance of niche marketing, the science-based formula behind sales copy, who are ideal clients are, the components of an effective marketing message, how to have a conversation with a perspective client without sounding "salesy," which social media platforms to focus on, how to create our signature program (step-by-step), automating our business with FB Ads and auto-responders, we were able to join a private FB community with other supportive coaches, we have access to the BYP membership site, AND SO MUCH MORE!

Honestly, we can go on about how AWESOME Carolin and her Team is, but, it will be something you have to experience for yourself! IF you are looking for a strong support system and the kind of help for your business that we have just described, LOOK NO FURTHER, we are 100% sold on the Carolin Soldo brand and you will be too!

Learn to work Smarter NOT Harder and Don't wait another day to INVEST IN YOU and your future!!! You won't be disappointed. 🙂

THANK YOU CAROLIN SOLDO TEAM FOR ALL YOU DO!!!

Wholeheartedly,

Catrina and Twana

Carolin and her team are the REAL deal! They are authentic, brilliant, kind, supportive, strategic, motivating, comprehensive, and focused on YOUR success. They give you everything you need to be successful but you have to do your part. I can't recommend them highly enough.

This program was not at all what was sold to me. I was working full-time when I signed up, my biggest concern was that this program was not doable if you had a FT career, the salesperson assured me that it would not be a problem. It definitely was a problem. The weekly calls were during my 8-6 workday, so I could never be on them live and ask questions. My email information was incorrectly entered, so I didn't receive emails for my 4 one on one calls until my last 3 weeks and they were crammed into a short period of time, but by then I had already floundered in this program. I invested 8K and the worst investment I have ever made. I did learn, this….How I will not run a coaching business.

I enjoyed the course and the friends I made. I really thought I would be getting more help from Carolyn herself. She was away quite a bit while I was in the training. It would have been nice to have had more or longer one on one coaching sessions as well. I felt the attention the successful students was more predominant than the ones who were struggling and really needed the help.

Had an amazing experience, and was very grateful from everything I learn therr. I would have never been able to open my business otherwise. A true team, a real family. Thanks

Carolin and Team Soldo are AMAZING!! They go above and beyond every single time! This is a high quality coaching program that is worth every penny, seriously… what they deliver is GOLD!!

Did not feel they were knowledgeable in my field of coaching even though in the discovery I was led to believe they were. For what I paid I felt I should have received more support. Only 2 days of the week were offered which were not convenient for my schedule and had to wait through a whole list of people to get your question answered. At times email response would take several days to a week.

I was extremely disappointed in this program. I was working a full time job and specifically asked if this program was doable for someone working 40 plus hours per week. I was told, "absolutely". It would require 3 hours per week. Also, I didn't have the 8k at the time, and I felt extremely pressured to find it within the next couple days or I would have to pay full price. I was encouraged to refinance my home to find the money. That woman used trickery and manipulation tactics to close me on signing up for the program. They were not transparent about many parts of the program. I had my one on one coaching calls rescheduled several times. When I finally had them, I felt rushed and was given coaching that was scattered and not built on a continuum. I got so far behind because of the true time requirement of this program. At the end, they reneged on their promise to be a part of the FB graduate group and decided to charge a monthly fee for it. Overall, I walked away feeling sick to my stomach, upset, and 8k in debt. This program is not in line with my values and ethics as a professional ICF certified coach.

I loved my time spent with the Soldo team, although I felt like on my sales call I was promised more in-depth private time with team members then what I ended up getting. If it wouldn't have been for that, I feel like my experience would have been better.

The time line was quite short considering some modules required so much more time than others. This made the end of the course feel overwhelming. On my last one-on-one call (graduation call), I was also told that I would be able to continue the course on a month to month basis for around 100$ USD/month and was then sent an email later on saying that it was actually much more then that, which was, again, disappointing to be promised something that wasn't really true. I was also told that I would be added to a "BYP Graduates Facebook Group" which never happened. The unfulfilled promises made me feel not really valued as a client as well as if I was being manipulated.. It definitely left a sour taste in my mouth.

In addition, to me, the member site felt a little cluttered with all of the different patterns and could be a little cleaner for a better client experience (ex: white background, with statement banner at the top and menu banner on the left with a subtle print like a warn creamy white marble with gold veining at 50 or 60% opacity), the PDFs could also use that newer PDF design/look that Team soldo has been using on the newer opt-ins I've seen on YouTube considering they still say that they are copyrighted 2015. It might not bother others, but it made me feel as if the site design and PDFs were dated, and maybe the information wasn't still be relevant considering 3 years in tech is quite a long time. I think for some cases, like for the technology docs, this is true, but other documents, like the first few modules, would only need a face lift. To conclude this point, I've bought other programs where they have updated their documents/memersite every year and really felt like I was receiving the most up-to-date information.

However!!! That being said, I think the content of this course and the way the course has been curated with the 2 live Q&A a week and the experts that are a part of this team is FABULOUS!!! <3 I love Team Soldo so so so much, as well as the community! I think the expertise brought to the table with this group of people is amazing and I have recommended this course and Carolin's YouTube Channel to MANY of my friends and fellow coaches! <333 Will be subscribing for many years to come!

I took Brand Your Passions last fall, and while I did learn quite a bit, I felt the program was WAY TOO EXPENSIVE for what it delivered. I did everything suggested in the program and am still struggling as a coach and haven't even finished paying off the credit card for the course. Carolin says in her modules that you should post 80% content and 20% pitch in your FB group, but I felt like she mostly only posted sales content to us. She barely ever was there and only acknowledged certain comments. The calls took forever to wade through and were at a time when I had to take off work and most of the email responses directed me to attend the calls. Had the course been $2500 – $4000 I would have been very satisfied as I did learn how to do a webinar and a lot about online marketing. However, for $8,000 I felt I needed more access and guidance… I also felt I was misled on the sales call. I was told specifically that if I "followed the recipe there was no way I couldn't succeed." I followed the recipe and am currently deeper in debt from the course, all the things I had to buy from the course and not enough new clients to offset that. Overall, I felt like I learned some good content but feel frustrated and disappointed and like 8K was too big of an investment for my return.
