| Did any of you join FT's Run Home Tour FB group? I joined several
months ago (paying into the group about $70) and have been disappointed with FT's participation in the group. In the few live courses she did she mentioned doing a lot more within the group but seems to have totally checked out and not participating at all. There are a lot of really supportive folks within the group but I feel like they all joined to get inside information from her. Now I see that she is really promoting Barrel Racing College, which I'm sure is probably really good but I feel like she has left the Run Home Tour group out to dry and it makes me hesitant to pay to join the BRC because I feel like she may do the same thing all over again. I feel somewhat taken advantage of... am i the only one??

| There was a charge... I think I paid about $70 to join! It's been a while ago though... She made it out to be super exclusive and a huge deal and now she doesn't even post within the group

| I would chalk this one up to experience and move on. Find someone else to follow/learn from. I think she spreads herself to thin and counts on teenagers with short attention spans to follow her. At least that's how it looks. |

 Location: NeverLand | I did not join the run home tour. But I did Join the " Look what Daniel did" it was 67$ the way she promotes it I though I was getting the "Ebook" by joining but nope, you had to pay 40$ for it. And then if you want a custom meal plan from Daniel is about 150$ and then all the meal prep meals for one month are about 600-700$ and then all the supplements they beg you to buy that make you magically skinny is another 300$ a month. I just couldn't do it. It seems it was all about them making money off us. She started out being really active in the group, and now hardly anything. I left the group needless to say. I would of been better off throwing away my 67$ down the river. pretty disappointing. Its like the hype of a new puppy, it all great and happy and exciting then the dog gets old and no one cares anymore. |

| Had pretty much the same experience with some of the online training offered; paid for the book and thought it would be an actual book but it was an e-book and had to call and request a pdf file of it; $70 for a pdf file that I had to print out was a little too much. |

Her snap chat anymore is just promoting those supplements.. buy this, I take this I can't live without this! But whatever... I quit following.. I'm sure man sports sales have increased though so I guess she's doing it, as she's most likely sponsored. Good for her! |

And she is dating the owner (I think he is the owner or CEO) and I know that there sales have blown out of the water. good for them. It just disappointing when you spend the money and then all they do is pressure you to buy there supplements or you will never be good enough.. ugh I was hoping I would learn a lot not just a sales pitch |

| I'm sure some of the supplements are beneficial but there's so much than drinking powders and popping pills! I like to use bodybuilding.com occasionally for FREE articles and fitness tips as well as nutrition.. sure, they sell a bunch of supplements but I don't ever feel pressured. I like to read reviews on all the supplements before I try anything! Plus there's a really great forum, kinda like here you can connect with others. |

I agree! im sure they do help! I asked on there what to do if you cant afford to spend 300-400$ a month on the supplement's. I was basically told that I didn't want to change bad enough or I would figure out how to spend the money on the supplement's. And that I just didn't manage my money well enough. I was kinda blown away lol |

Holy cow!!! Ok, I use to do those figure comps .... I didn't spend $300 a month on supplements! Maybe on personal training, but not supplements! I didn't use a lot of supplements anyway... my trainer preferred me to get protein thru real food. There is no supplement out there that's going to make you thinner, bigger, stronger or faster unless you put in the real work... diet and exercise! Selling people a bunch of fluff and not putting the emphasis on nutrition and exercise is what I think... "Selling" |

| I heard the barrel racing college is really great, and its only $20 a month. Granted, there are free sources of similar information. End of the day, FT is a business woman and knows how to profit. |

Not just fashion industry - think of the consumer electronics industry. It's sales, period.
Personally, I find her very inspiring. You can't say she's not working for the money. I've bought some of her clothes and Mansports stuff, but not a fortune. |

I said it a long time ago that she was a marketing genius as is Martha Josey but the huge difference is Martha is a person of integrity and has kept a fan base for years. You can't keep screwing people over. Eventually they catch on and leave. |
