Why This Program Has No Refunds and What “Guarantee” Really Means

Audio only · watch on YouTube

David Wood tells his audience upfront that there is no refund policy on Empower Network products, and he wants them to understand why before they buy anything. “That ain’t the guarantee,” he says of a refund. The guarantee is something else entirely.

The guarantee is that he will get on the phone with you

David lays out what he calls a fair promise: if someone follows his instructions exactly and it does not work, he will personally help fix it. He frames it as a deal he wants agreement on before moving forward.

What I can guarantee is that if you do exactly what I say tonight, if you follow the instructions that I’m going to give you, and it doesn’t work, I’ll help you.

He asks the room directly whether that seems fair, specifically the promise that if someone follows his formula and is not making a thousand dollars a day, he will get on the phone and correct what they are doing wrong. He asks people to confirm in the chat that they think that is fair.

The math behind going All In

David explains why he is confident he can deliver on that promise: because, in his telling, the system is easy once someone owns all of it. He runs through what “All In” means in dollar terms. Buyers need the blog, they need the Inner Circle, and they need to activate the e-wallet at $19.95 a month, which he says exists so the company can pay affiliates and process transactions. On top of that, he says buyers need the $500 product, the Costa Rica Mastermind Intensive, and the $1,000 product. Put together, he says that structure lets someone earn $1,625 in commissions from a single customer who also goes all in.

He anticipates the objection that not everyone has $1,625 sitting around. His answer is direct: “borrow it.” He tells people not to let the money stand in the way of what they want, to go into the back office, click the tabs where the products are, and buy them.

Why no refunds is the point, not a flaw

David is explicit that the no-refund policy is stated up front, on the order pages, before anyone buys. He says this is unusual enough that people notice it. His explanation is that the material being taught is, in his word, “dangerous,” and he is not willing to teach it to people he considers too poverty-minded to commit fully. He also draws a distinction between the company’s finances and its policy:

It’s not because we can’t. We got money.

He connects the no-refund stance to a claim about ethics, saying that unethical buyers are the ones who purchase something, use it, and then ask for their money back by claiming they never received the product. He tells the audience that compared to other info products, other marketing training, and other paid material they have bought, what they get through Empower Network is more valuable, and he asks people watching to respond and confirm that.

Selling the training, not just the income claim

David shifts to talking about the product itself, arguing that the value goes beyond making money. He references a conversation with someone named Mark Collin, who told him he had ignored the offer for months, then finally got into the back office and reacted with disbelief at what he had been missing, saying he should have bought it the first time he saw it. David uses this to make the point that the quality of the products and the sales process is what convinced Collin, not just the income potential.

He then asks the audience directly: who has been in Empower Network for a month or two, been through the actual training rather than just purchasing it, and would say the products are worth ten times more than anything else currently sold in the marketplace for information, quality, and value. He closes by telling anyone not yet enrolled to click the add-to-cart button below the video and get in.

But here's what I can guarantee. What I can guarantee is that if you do exactly what I say tonight, if you follow the instructions that I'm going to give you, and it doesn't work, I'll help you. Not fair, okay? If that's fair, and if you guys are okay with me promising that if you do what I teach you and you're not making a thousand bucks a day, when I lay out the steps and the formula, that I'll actually get on the phone and I'll fix what you're doing wrong, if you think that's fair, just write, that's fair. That's fair, okay? So that's a fair guarantee, it's a fair promise.

Now, why am I so confident that I can help you do that? It's because it's easy. So folks, what do you need to buy when you get Empower Network? You need to buy All In. What's that? You need to get the blog.

This is the kind of thing I teach in The Daily Shortcut: one short episode a day, free. Send Me Episode One →

Why? Because it's worth a lot more than you spend. You need to buy the Inner Circle. It's worth a lot more than you spend. You need to activate the e-wallet. It's $19.95 a month.

This is going to allow us to pay you and process your transactions. You need to buy the $500 product, which is the Costa Rica Mastermind Intensive, and you need to buy the $1,000 product. That means that you're going to have the ability to earn on one customer $1,625 in commissions from one customer. Now, will all your customers buy everything? No, some people are on this webinar and you're like, Dave, I don't have $1,625. First thing I'm going to tell you is borrow it, right?

And don't let that stand in the way of getting what you want in your life. $1,625 to get All In, and just do it, just buy the products. You can do that in the back office by clicking on the tabs where the products are. You say, Dave, what's the refund policy? There ain't none, folks. That ain't the guarantee.

The guarantee is, if you make the math worth, I'm going to show you after we get over this little hump of this financial mess you're in, right? Then I'll coach you and I'll make it work. No refunds. Why? Because this information is not the normal wussy, weeny marketer information that you deserve a refund for. This information is dangerous, and I won't teach any of this stuff to people that are too poverty-minded to be willing to go all in and make a decision.

That fair? That I just say that up front? That's why we don't give refunds. It's not because we can't. We got money. The reason we say no refunds right on the pages, right when you're ordering, right up front, right in your face, and you're like, holy smokes, nobody does that.

It's because what we teach is dangerous. And we're not willing to teach it to people that are unethical. And unethical people, you know what they do? They buy stuff and ask for a refund. They say, well, I didn't get the product. Yes, you did.

Right? Out of all the stuff that you've bought, out of all the info products that you've bought, out of all the marketing training that you've bought, you've gotten more value, more information, more quality here than you have anywhere else in the marketplace. Just respond. Yeah? You have? You have?

So it's not just about making money, folks. We also want the best products. So when you're selling this stuff that I'm telling about, I just painted out why the blog is worth way more than $25 a month and why you should need to buy it now if you want a blog to make money. Right? I talked to Mark Collin. He was like, you know, I ignored this for months.

I was like, oh God, it's one of those things. And he said, and then I got in the back office and he said, I was like, what the hell have I been doing? I should have gotten this first time I saw it. Because he couldn't believe the quality of the products that we were offering people and the quality of the sales process. Who here, who here is in Empower? You've been in Empower for, say, a month or two and you've been through all of our training.

So I'm talking, you've been through the products. You haven't just bought them. Not everybody who's bought them has been through them. So let's be fair here. But who in here has bought all of our training products and they are worth ten times more than anything else that's selling in the market right now as far as information, quality, and value.
