The Top 10 Questions I Get Asked About Cherrington Media
As a current mentee in Adam Cherrington's affiliate marketing mentorship program, I've gained firsthand experience of what it offers. While I've seen progress in my own affiliate marketing efforts, I believe it's important to provide a balanced perspective for those considering this program.
Here, I'll address the top 10 questions I've seen about Adam Cherrington and Cherrington Media, based on my personal experience and research.
1. Is Adam Cherrington's Affiliate Marketing Training Legitimate?
Everyone asks me this. Short answer: yes!
From my experience, the training provided is legitimate and comprehensive. There are multiple interactions points every day between the live coaching calls and the communities set up on Discord.
The program offers actionable content, and Adam is actively involved in the community. However, as with any educational program, success depends on individual effort and application of the teachings.
2. What's the Cost of Adam Cherrington's Mentorship Program?
The program represents a significant investment. Most people opt to sign up for a 6-month mentorship, which is $28,995. Additional costs for advertising can range from $5,000 to $10,000 depending on your success. There are other time-based packages (3-month, 12-month, lifetime) as well as a DIY option which limits your access to the coaches that are priced to reflect the increase in access to the tools and team.
Personally, I thought of the mentorship program cost and advertising budget as the initial start-up costs for a new digital marketing business, similar to how I’d consider an investment in a franchise. When I decided to join Cherrington Media, I was considering several other options for my next venture - access to a proven marketing tech stack and coaches that have “been there and done that” as students themselves actually seemed like a bargain compared to the other franchise ideas I was considering. Plus, I don’t have to leave the house since it’s all digital!
Of course, you should consider your goals for starting a business or joining this mentorship, e.g. marketing education, starting a business, learning a new skill to help grow an existing business, against the financial costs.
3. What Does the Cherrington Experience Include?
The mentorship is an in-depth education on affiliate marketing and, more specifically, affiliate arbitrage. You are given access to:
All the technology you need to run an affiliate marketing business
Multiple income opportunities
Vetted products
High-converting funnels
Video training and complementary assets to help you move through the program and see success
Live coaching calls 6-days a week
24/7 support from the community and coaches on Discord
An Accountability coach to help guide your success and keep you on track
Mindset and psychology training
Regular updates and new content
4. What Are the Success Rates of Adam Cherrington's Students?
I’ve heard claims of a 95% success rate, and it's important to note that success in this context is often defined as earning $5,000 to $30,000 per month.
That being said, it’s actually hard to get a read on the success rate of the program on an ongoing basis. My personal progress has been positive and profitable, but I recommend potential students to approach such claims with realistic expectations. You must do the work to see the results you want. You will need to take responsibility for your own progress, creating your own creative assets, joining the live coaching calls, and participating with the community -we’ll be there cheering for you and supporting you along the way!
5. What is Adam Cherrington's Reputation in the Affiliate Marketing Industry?
Adam seems to have a generally positive reputation, known for his transparency and engagement with mentees. He regularly provides updates to the community on what he’s testing that has been performing well and how he approaches his marketing.
I see a lot of other reviews that raise concerns about the mentorship only to go on and promote their program. This is actually in support of Adam’s reputation since those creators are trying to take advantage of Adam’s credibility and momentum to build their own program.
6. What Products Does Adam Cherrington Promote?
The program involves promoting various products that are sourced and marketed directly by the Cherrington Media team. Cherrington Media used to promote through Clickbank, but has moved away from that and solely focuses on helping students build strong direct response marketing skills around proven products and funnels to increase their chances of success.
7. Are Cherrington Media's Strategies Effective?
The strategies taught can be effective if implemented consistently and thoughtfully. Students that are intentional and thoughtful with their research and marketing see results faster than those that are merely completing the steps.
In other words, while the program provides detailed guidance and support, success ultimately depends on individual effort, market conditions, and other factors beyond the program's control.
8. What is the Refund Policy for Adam Cherrington's Programs?
The program offers a 90-day action-based money-back guarantee. To qualify for a refund, students must demonstrate they've implemented the training steps. While this policy encourages commitment, it may not suit everyone's needs or expectations. The team has been consistently working with students that request more time to find an option that meets their needs and goals.
9. What are the Main Criticisms of Adam Cherrington and Cherrington Media?
I pay attention when other students voice concern or criticism about the mentorship and program. The most common issues I’ve heard is:
High cost and feeling of not having enough time. The concern about a lack of time is most commonly expressed among 3-month mentees. In my opinion, 90 days (give or take) isn’t enough time to launch, optimize and scale a thoughtful and thorough campaign.
Unclear or restrictive refund or extension policy. Many students begin to feel pressure as their mentorship comes to an end and aren’t clear about next steps. The support team is always willing to help find a solution.
Confusion about the process. Marketing is hard! It’s a whole career path that is studied for decades and the tools and best practices are constantly evolving. Be prepared to make a few mistakes, ask for help, and learn a lot.
10. Responsiveness of Adam Cherrington and His Team
In my experience, Adam and his team have been responsive to questions and concerns. There are numerous ways to get your questions answered and channels for getting the support you need to be successful.
Conclusion
My experience with Cherrington Media has been largely positive, but it's crucial for potential students to conduct thorough research and critically evaluate the program against their personal goals and financial situation. While the mentorship has been beneficial for me, remember that results can vary, and success in affiliate marketing requires dedication, hard work, and sometimes, a bit of luck.
