I disagree with the original, anonymous, so-called review. (I did not read all of the long list of responses.) Isn't it interesting that negative comments are followed by a pitch to use HER service. Not only is that self-serving, it completely discounts anything she has to say about Loral Langemeier or any other competition. I wonder how much of what she does is taken directly from Loral's Live Out Loud programs.
FLoral Langemeier is more than her four (soon to be five) New York Times best sellers. In her three-day workshops, she clearly lays out what beginning and already established entrepreneurs need to do to create consistent income, with a focus on marketing and sales strategies and team building, cautioning people not to try to do everything themselves. Instead, she instructs followers to do what they are best at and hire out the other tasks. For example, I'm a writer, not a bookkeeper or graphic designer, so I contract with experts in those fields.
Loral provides step by step ways to build a network, thus finding more potential clients. In addition, during her 3-days to cash workshop, she clearly teaches people how to create a sales pitch that participants put to use right there.
In my opinion, the only negative in the Live Out Loud organization is the push to up sell into more expensive programs and to sell books and other products developed by Loral and her crew.
Speaking of the crew, they are professional, friendly and willing to work with anyone who asks for help.
My experience with Live Out Loud and Loral Langemeier has been positive. She's clear that building a highly successful business is not easy; but she gives people the tools to make it happen. It's up to them to follow through ... or not.
I have a background in financial planning/insurance and called the toll free number Loral gave on a radio show. (800-228-5197)
After the friendly person took my credit card information for the 9.95 shipping for the book, Millionaire Maker, and the accompanying CD. He began a hard "pitch" to get me to take the 30 day free trial which leads to the $67 per month Loral Langmeier "deal". I could hardly get a word in edgewise to tell him to cancel the whole deal, entirely! It was very frustrating, because he would not stop talking. He became very agitated, as was I and he wouldn't stop "pitching". If this is what his instructions from Loral are, then she must be pissing off a large number of callers! I told him to cancel my order...which I don't believe he heard...so, I told him I would buy the book and CD on line...he said they are not available online (which is not true...available on Amazon.com) It was an unnecessarily frustrating experience. Sorry I didn't check Amazon first and saved myself the stress!!
I'm sorry this site has so many negative reviews. Forget just reading the book....attend the workshop!!
I attended Lorals 3 day workshop and all I can say is WOW.
She gives you the 'bare bones' you need to succeed at your life's passion. She and her team motivate the people in the room, tailor to their questions , refine their approach to business and provide INVALUABLE feedback from 'breakout groups'. How bad do you want to start your own business?? Then this is the next step- i'd call it the Loral 'boot camp to success workshop'. She is hard yet funny, connects with the audience by talking to people by name and actually remembers what your occupation is. She is unforgiving with a 'tough love no excuse' approach...I LOVED IT.
Her explanations are easy to follow and she makes sure everyone is following what she is saying. The breakout sessions were used for blunt remarks and encouragement as well as ideas on how to think in different ways about your business venture. Will you continue to create excuses as to why you aren't being successful? GO TO THE WORKSHOP!!
Laurel is personable and helps push you through your uncomfortable zone. Your brain is stretched in ways it hasn't imagined before (if your a bran spankin newbie or seasoned entrepreneur) The attendance size was small ~70 people which gave he the ability to connect with just about every individual.
I look forward to attending her next workshop to keep on the high and will enjoy seeing how others are sparked into their enthusiasm on selling their passion. Don't miss out on creating YOUR life.
Loral IS ETHICALLY AND MORALLY BANKRUPT! Do Not proceed with anything concerning Loral Langemeier! She is just trying to make money for herself to travel and live the good life at others expense. I've seen for myself over the past several years. She uses people and tosses them aside like they are nothing but a speck of dirt. Even her own employees and family members. You know if she doesn't treat her employees and family with respect and value them for all they do for her, how can you trust her in business. She expects employees(and others who do a service for her)to bow down and do everything for her without a thank you and yet she micro-manages since she doesn't trust anyone.
OH and she does Not really have employees, she has mostly Contract Employees so she does not pay any taxes or employee benefits. She does not believe in paying employee benefits or paid vacations. How she has gotten away with so many contract employees working in her company and having to come to work on her terms makes no sense.
She does have several Lawsuits pending against her you can check for on the internet also, including the one with Dr. Phil who will No longer have anything to do with Loral.
I am so sorry for all the people, family and her employees she has hurt along the way.
Stay away from Loral and Live Out Loud it is Bad News!
I attended Loral's Live Out Loud Coaching session. She embarrassed me by saying that my business was lame (Which was-Amway), but she didn't have to do it the way she did. If she wouldn't have done that, I would have been out of thousands of dollars just like everyone else. We just didn't get along during the entire conference. I even stayed after the conference and she wouldn't look me in the eye.
If your gut feeling says it's a lie, then follow your gut feeling! I haven't been contacted by them since.
Buyer, beware!
I have read all the comments and am wondering why there are none posted more recently, like in April and May...anybody?
I heard about Loral Langmeier on the radio. It was obvious that Langemeier's company had outsourced the job of answering the phones. The young man answering was the typical fast-talking salesman but he explained that I was only paying for the shipping of the book, that I had a 30-day trial membership, and that my card would be charged $19.95/monthly afterward. I got the book a week or so later. I'm in the publishing industry and I can verify that this initial expense is on Langmeier, after all who is paying for all these books? I got a free book, period. It costs $6-10 to ship a book. Who should pay for it? Her? I don't think so (I think most people do understand this but resent the hidden costs that show up later).
Week #2; I watched the DVD. I read to Chapter 4, then called the number of my Personal Start-up Strategist. She couldn't have been nicer! I asked her how much this would cost me. She didn't know which program I had purchased (she does coaching only) but she voluntarily gave me the number to call and ask about my account. (I did tell her that the companies Loral is using for outsourcing phone sales was horrible and hurting her reputation).
I have not called to cancel my membership. I didn't need to because I am a control freak when it comes to my money. I deactivated the card I used to pay for the shipping of the book (I cannot believe nobody in this thread of complaints thought of that. My bank said they would gladly re-issue a new card and that old vendors would not have access to my account). I did so because I do not want to see any charges show up that catch me off-guard.
I have my second coaching call scheduled for the weekend. I'll decide after that whether or not I wish to proceed.
