Very instructive and well thought out

This is an excellent course for beginners and more advanced who want to get a taste of social media marketing and create their own agency. The course covers the fundamentals of social media marketing, including how to create and manage social media accounts, develop engaging content, run advertising campaigns, and much much more.

High value course!

For the money you spend on this course, it is extremely high value. You learn a lot about all aspects of the business, and if you are willing to put in some hard work what they promise is absolutely achievable.

You can find better information on YouTube

Pros: lots of information relevant to starting an agency in one place broken up into manageable pieces, fancy website template
Cons: huge discrepancy between what they advertise and what you get, one Facebook ad strategy for ecom brand, content isn’t updated, Sander is not active in discord

Conclusion: As someone who has gone through the whole course, you can find better information on Joel Kaplan’s YouTube channel in an organized way. Nothing in the academy is better than what you can find on YouTube. The community has a handful of people who are paid to be in the chat and have their own agencies with clients, other than that it’s mostly like minded people trying to start a business and asking the same questions over and over. Buying this course is not going to make you take action on your agency. If you don’t start before you buy the course buying it won’t change anything. Watch informational YouTube videos by people who aren’t trying to sell you something. Sander has made lots of money from selling his course and now sells a course on how to make money selling courses. Nothing against him, but if you want to start an agency I would not put my money into the academy, I would use YouTube (Joel Kaplan) and put my money towards my agency.

P.S the reason the academy has so many 5 star reviews is because they ask people to change their reviews to 5 stars in exchange for an extra module that they normally upsell to you once you’re inside the academy.

Top course

Top course, Sander definitely didn't promise too much. I understood everything because it was explained very nicely and simply. All I can say is thank you for the tools, thank you!

Such a great course!

Such a great course!
However do not buy this course and expect to become an expert within the field of social media marketing. Buy this course to kickstart your agency and work your way up.
Just the tools and seamless systems alone make this course worth every single penny. On top of that you get lots of knowledge and templates, which makes it nearly impossible to not sign a client.
Big ups to Sander and his team - great job guys!

Our experience with the academy

Hi there!
So where should I even start. My friend Frederik and I invested our access to the academy.
After watching phase 3 we were blown away - with other words it became suddenly clear for us that we were getting extremely good good knowledge, systems, website templates, and much more when talking about SMMA.
So far it’ve been a pleasure to be a student of the Academy.

The course is well worth the money

The course is well worth the money , iv done sales before so i can say Sanders advice is definitely true. About the rest of the course its all new to me , but iv learnt so much and the Academy really supplies everything needed to make running it successful, all thats needed is learning and practicing.Im sure that with consistency it would be impossible to lose anything by choosing to join. financially and in knowledge , theres nothing to lose. only gain alot.
Big thanks to everyone who made this available.

This could be your start...

I am now on my way from being retired to being an agency owner thanks to Sanders SMM Academy and the people behind him. I am very grateful that my path was led to a presentation video about the said academy, which has also been the start of taking in completely new knowledge within marketing and, not least, self-development after and during the course.
I can recommend the course!

Sander changed my life

I firstly got in touch with Sander's content approximately a month ago, on YouTube. That's because, two months ago, I started thinking about how i wanted my life to be and what i really wanted to achieve. From then I started watching inspirational figures that had the same mindset as mine, and Sander was amongst them. I could feel through the screen his sincerity and honesty and when I got the opportunity to buy his Academy course, I didn't even have to think twice. In a week from now i'm starting this new chapter of my life and I won't stop till i'll get to the top. And this is also thanks to Sander.
