GBBUYER BEWARE!! 12/19/22 - entered into an agreement for a Business Marketing program offered by Tara Mullarkey called High Ticket Empress (HTE). As part of my contract I received a 100% money back guarantee if I did not recoup my investment of $11,800 during the 90 day program. While the details of the guarantee were shared with me during the sales call, I had concerns about the requirement of attending all live calls (due to work). When I brought my concerns about the language of the guarantee to the sales rep he stated that it was not strictly enforced and unfortunately I chose to trust that he was telling me the truth, so I signed the agreement. After completing the 90 days, I wasn't able to make my investment back and I messaged HTE to ask for a refund based on the guarantee in my contract. They responded by saying that I initially qualified, but because I didn't satisfy the requirements for the guarantee I was no longer eligible for a refund. They then listed additional requirements that were not in the agreement or shared with me verbally or otherwise (apparently, attendance at all live calls not only meant being there live, but also submitting questions & being coached on all calls - not stated in my contract). This was a complete 180 from what the sales rep had stated during my sales call to get me to sign the agreement. Not to mention the requirements are so rigorous that they are impossible to meet as it included 3 weekly coaching calls plus another coaching call that met biweekly. There are 6 elements of fraudulent misrepresentation and this business has met all of them. Due to the company's fraudulent misrepresentation of their guarantee I am left with a huge financial investment lost. I also put in a complaint with the Better Business Bureau hoping to resolve this matter. They sent correspondence to High Ticket Empress with no response. Still no refund as of this date. BEFORE YOU BUY, MAKE SURE THIS IS WHAT YOU REALLY NEED. THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER REVIEWS JUST LIKE THIS ONE. DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE SALES TACTICS.
Emotionally Heartbroken
GBDid not meet pitched expectation! Was not for a beginner. Emotionally heartbroken in the end over experience. I was brand new into the coaching space as I entered this program. I was also a FT health practitioner with a full caseload. I was told the tech would be easy and for me, it was not. I was told by the salesperson when I joined it would take up 5-10 hours of my time per week.It did not. It took me about 20hours per week to catch up to where I needed to be in order to be in a space to handle ALL of the new tech, information and implement it so I would be able to keep up with the pace of the program. This program moves incredibly fast for a newbie like me and it was absolutely NOT appropriate for someone who was just starting… completely overwhelming in the end. The coaching as a whole was poor. The style is not generally affirming or supportive, except for coach Andrew who was literary amazing and the only coach who was positive, truly gifted and encouraging. The other coaches came across cold and distant and really were not suited to someone new to the coaching field. The main coach Tara was a significant disappointment in live coaching calls and would challenge anyone of her clients who was struggling through gaslighting and blaming the client for whatever was not “clicking” or going well. In the coaching calls, she represented the antithesis of what I hope to be as a coach and her style was not suited to a positive, encouraging or supportive learning environment. If you were doing well she was quick to come along side you with praise and take much of the credit. If you weren’t and were struggling, “you were doing something wrong or not working hard enough”… basically it was your fault. The reason for the 2 stars is because I did certainly learn a lot and was able to write my coaching program and I feel so good about that and am thankful. If I’m honest, I was able to accomplish what I did because I was pushed. HTE pushes well. However the emotional scarring was truly heartbreaking and left me feeling confused, discouraged as a coach and questioning myself. I do not believe the pitch for the program meets the truth of what someone should expect. I feel the promise or suggested realistic expectation of making money for the prospected coach, far outweighs what is a reasonable expectation. Not appropriate for a new coach and not worth the massive investment. ** Also much of what she teaches in her program is available for Free… I had no idea. Tara is incredibly smart, successful and has much to offer. However this particular offering & program left me personally scarred, emotionally beat and I lost thousands of dollars in the process. I feel I have a responsibility to let other’s know what to expect in full transparency of my experience.

GBGreat Program I didn't have experience in coaching before I joined High Ticket. So it took me longer to see the results compared to other coaches. So if you haven't done coaching before you need to be ready for a lot of work to get the results. In her training modules, Tara shared an abundance of useful information on how to find the right clients and create a strong marketing strategy. Her sales training was amazing! The HTE team offered great support. I really enjoyed learning from several coaches, especially Andrew Sommers. He was very experienced, helpful, and encouraging.

GBI only wish I had joined sooner!! I only wish I had joined sooner!!! I thought about joining for months, and when I finally did, I quadrupled my normal monthly income in the very first 4 weeks and have consistently matched that or higher since. In under 6 months I’ve made more than I did the entire year prior. Tara has helped me with my business in so many ways—I’m so thankful for what she is doing to help women grow their businesses and create more income!!

GBI am supremely disappointed by Tara and… I am supremely disappointed by Tara and her lack of empathy and professionalism. I paid $10,800 for her 90 day program and was diligent about following the modules as well as attending the 3-4x per week group coaching sessions. When I joined, I let the sales rep, Kevin, know that I didn't want to move platforms (using Kajabi) and he said that wasn't a problem. However, I ran into a major road block that lasted for about 6 of the 12 weeks of the program. My ads weren't converting and for weeks the only feedback I was getting is that I had to use Click Funnels (which I actually did for 2 weeks and didn't solve the problem). I tried so hard to follow the program exactly and be a great student. I enjoyed the rest of the staff and am still trying to sell my program (4 months in and spent thousands on ads with no sales). Instead of getting support from Tara I left every call with her feeling completely defeated and beat up. I do not recommend HTE.
