Ripoff Report Verified™ REVIEW:

EDitor’s UPDATE: Positive rating and recognition has been given to Yancey Events for its commitment to excellence in customer service.

Ripoff Report’s discussions with Yancey Events have uncovered an ongoing commitment by the company to total client satisfaction. This means that clients can expect that the company will work towards finding a mutually satisfactory resolution to any complaints or concerns. Yancey Events listens carefully to client concerns and sees them as an opportunity to learn from past mistakes and become more efficient as a company in the services offered and the support for those services.

Scott Yancey, creator of Yancey Events and a hit television show, has informed Ripoff Report that his philosophy is that the viewers of their show are their greatest asset. As a successful real estate investor, television star, and businessman, Scott Yancey feels it is critical to listen to his clients and respond properly. By always putting his customers first, Scott Yancey hopes to maintain Yancey Events as a successful enterprise both now and for many years to come.

Another top executive of the company told us that Yancey's personal business philosophy is based on the premise that real estate investing can be fun and exiting. Yancey Events' mission statement says it all: "Our goal is to provide our clients with the best real estate education in the industry.” One of the other things Ripoff Report learned in the course of its review is that typical customer feedback reads: “Yancey Events (and Scott Yancey) have an amazing set of programs designed for real estate enthusiasts. You will not be disappointed. They are serious about meeting commitments, and deliver on all their promises.”

The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Jon Millar during an onsite inspection held by a third party verification company with no biases toward Yancey Events.

Yancey Events provides education, tools, and resources for real estate investing. Their target market consists of anyone who is looking to financially better their lives.

They are an education company that offers coaching and seminars. People who are involved with their company are typically new to real estate investing, some are just seeking more education, and some are already successful real estate investors.

Their company acquires leads for potential clients through direct mail, internet marketing, and outbound calls. Anyone who shows interest is presented with the opportunity to purchase lists that are approved DNC and TCPA regulations.

When presenting to individual consumers, Yancey Events follows a specific sales process. First, there is a seminar which consists of a 2-3 hour presentation on different topics. The price of their services is explained upfront. Then, there are two sales breaks for questions. Lastly, they follow up on “warm leads,” which are people that are interested but may not have the money, or people who are undecided.

During the onsite interview Jon Millar was asked about some of the complaints their company receives: “Most of our complaints come because of the free gift. However, we resolves every complaint, none are left unresolved. We honor the three day cool off period. Most of the time, even if it’s after that time period, we will still give their money back.”

Mr. Millar was then asked to describe a specific situation where a client was not satisfied with the level of service they received, he explained, “A person was unsatisfied with a particular coach. The owner personally received an email and she was set up with another coach. We also gave her another 3-day refresher course for free. The customer was satisfied.


Yancey Events – Customer Care

Since complaints were made on Ripoff Report, Yancey Events have made some changes to ensure that customers are receiving the best experience possible. They maintain that they no longer give the gifts at the end of the day. If someone wants them early, they will be provided with one. They also make sure any negativity is resolved immediately.

In a leadership role within their company, Mr. Millar advises his employees to do whatever it takes to make the client happy. They have weekly calls with their 11 teams to drive that motto. They also hold biannual meetings to retrain employees on these ideals. Their training is centered on providing the best customer service possible. Their expectation is to have hard working people with integrity.

When asked what their company has done to remedy the concerns from complaints made on Ripoff Report, Mr. Millar stated, “We now have audio and video monitoring with a scripted sales pitch. At each purchased three day seminar we go over expectations and outline what we will cover. We make sure the people will understand what they’ve bought and what their expectations are. If they have any concerns, we stop immediately and address their questions. We provide a survey at the end of the seminar and if we discover that the customers have been misled in any way, the seller is fined or fired.”

Yancey Events is honored to be a part of Ripoff Report’s Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program. Their goal is to have zero complaints and they believe this is a step in the right direction.

NOW TO THE ORIGINAL REPORT THAT WAS FILED

--------------------------------------------

Yancey, LLC Scott Yancey Aimee Yancey Goliath Imoney YanceyFE  Yancey events EvTech Media Utah Nationwide

My wife and I bought and attended the $1,997 workshop held April 17^th 2014. This supposedly would provide us with the necessary training, knowledge and step-by-step methods to understand and possibly earn money in Real Estate. Instead, the $1,997 workshop went over the same things that we got at the initial free orientation, flew through snippets of high level stuff which could not be understood, had to listen to several stories of the leaders unbelievable success and then presented with product pitches to spend another $20k to $40k on more workshops in Las Vegas to really get the information that we were misled into thinking we would get on this weekend training

More than half the time spent at the $1,997 workshop was spent on their product pitches.

We did not receive the training as promised when we signed up. I can honestly say that the only thing we were “taught” was how to kite funds by opening numerous credit card accounts and funding a transaction with the banks money robbing from Peter to pay Paul, I believe this is illegal?? Since we were warned about asking any questions of the event leader Mr. Brock Madsen I spoke with our group leader Shawn during day two and expressed my concerns regarding lack of useful information. Shawn told me that I was not a “doer” and this was probably not going to help me anyway so I could just leave. I asked him for my money back and he said to call him after the event to arrange for a full refund. I was completely unable to reach him and believe the number he gave me is no good.

I then called customer service and was given a complete runaround. I called no less than eleven times with the same result, we will get back to you. This is in my opinion a complete scam and bad business. Scott yancey and your crew should be ashamed of yourself. The only ones profiting are the event owners and leaders.
