- To qualify for this guarantee, you must have joined Entrepreneurs Circle through the guarantee offer page (https://entrepreneurscircle.org/free/) and have completed the guarantee registration form presented immediately after checkout. If you have signed up for EC Membership through any other means, this guarantee will not apply to you.
- Obviously, Entrepreneurs Circle (or anything for that matter) will not help your business unless you actually use it. In order to qualify for the 'Double Your Money Guarantee', you must follow the guidance and advice provided during your Guarantee Period. This includes completing assigned tasks in the week in which they are assigned, spending at least three (3) hours of focused time each week working ON your business rather than in it, and asking for help from the EC team where required. This guarantee cannot be used as an excuse to avoid effort and work on your part.
- If you wish to claim under the guarantee, you will be required to provide examples and evidence of your completed work to validate your claim, and you may also be required to provide evidence from your accounts or bookkeeping system.
- Cancellation of your Entrepreneurs Circle Membership at any point during the Guarantee Period, or any failed or missed payments during that period, will automatically nullify and void your guarantee.
- This guarantee applies only to the first six (6) months of your Entrepreneurs Circle Membership, starting from the date you complete the sign-up form online.
- For the purposes of this guarantee, your “investment” is defined as a maximum of five (5) 4-weekly membership payments of £99. Any additional payments made beyond these five (5) payments are excluded from the guarantee calculation.
- The maximum amount payable under this guarantee is £990.
- Any other purchases, subscriptions or payments made to EC are not covered by this guarantee.
- How To Claim: If you are planning to claim under this guarantee, you must notify us via email to [email protected] no later than five (5) months after your start date. We reserve the right to work with you and, at our sole discretion, to carry out work for you during month six of your membership to generate the revenue and returns needed to fulfil the promise of the guarantee.
- If, at the end of the Guarantee Period, you have not achieved an increase in gross profit of at least £990, you must submit your claim via email to [email protected] no later than 180 days after the day you joined.

However, our '100% Absolute Satisfaction' Guarantee allows you to claim a full refund on any payments made for the Facebook Ad Accelerator if you have tried the product, fully and diligently completed at least two modules, decided that the course is not for you and let us know in writing within 14 days of purchase.
- The Facebook Ad Accelerator comes with a 'We Won't Let You Fail' Guarantee.
- We're so confident in the Facebook Ad Accelerator that if you go through the programme, take part in the Q&A calls and still (somehow!) don't see success after 12 months we'll not only refund your money but, if you'd like, we'll work with you 1:1 to craft a winning Facebook Ad campaign for you. The creation of this campaign can take up to 21 working days (but is usually delivered much sooner).
- The campaign we create must be run as we deliver it with the budget we suggest in order to guarantee any results.
- Any amendments to the campaign we deliver for you will void the guarantee.
- IMPORTANT: the Facebook Ad Accelerator won't work unless you use it.
