“I just wanted to say a quick THANK YOU to Sarah Mae Ives for making the sales training section. I have been able to make it to only one live call since starting the program (work struggles) so I am very thankful to have access to the replays. But I am very thankful for this training; it was what I needed to hear and eased a lot of my worries about selling to my clients... It is a breath of fresh air and a huge confidence booster! THANK YOU!!”
“I just want to take a moment to thank Sarah Mae Ives for creating the No-Fluff Business program, for her truly hands-on mentorship and guidance, and for bringing together this incredible group of people - my life has transformed, and I am so grateful!
I realized earlier today that I inadvertently had my first $10K month in October!!! All three of my consulting clients signed Ads Management contracts with me after we concluded the 4 consulting sessions - so I now have a total of 7 clients! I have my work cut out for me this month with onboarding and setup, but I am beside myself with this accomplishment!
I was talking to a friend today, and I said something offhand about $500 being no big deal in the context of doing business - and it made me realize how much my mindset has shifted over the past few months…8 months ago I was miserable at my 9-5, stuck in a toxic work environment and stressed about time and money, and now I am the proud owner of an international advertising agency serving clients in 4 different countries and the owner of a (very) profitable online business that fills me with purpose and fulfillment!
The genuine guidance and support I’ve received from you, Sarah, after launching my business is more than anything I ever expected, and has played a huge role in my success - every question gets answered, all of the motivation and expert insights, and this tremendous community - THANK YOU!”
“So I’ve officially more than MATCHED my teaching salary with client retainers, coming in at a total of $6,850 per month. My annual salary divided by 12 was $6,833 pretax.
This exciting update comes just over a month after I resigned from my job! Exactly one year after I joined Sarah’s program, building my biz as I taught full-time. Insanity.
I want to say THANK YOU Sarah Mae Ives for inserting that idea in my brain months ago about scaling my business working primarily with detailers. I’ve achieved all of these clients organically which is super cool, and my confidence in the sales calls is insane. And I didn’t have to chase them down for an answer. They called or messaged ME!”
“I just landed my first client! Yayy! They’re in the solar industry, which is what my background is, and they found me through LinkedIn, not my ads. I’m so pumped! It’s only been 10 weeks since I joined this Mentorship and my first client will more than cover my initial investment. Thank you, Sarah SO much for this opportunity!”
“Stumbling across Sarah's ad was nothing short of life-changing. I had been spinning my wheels at my business as a salon owner. The hours were exhausting and I went home every night lacking in energy, money and motivation. I knew I needed a different type of business, plus one that I might be able to do from home (and not deal directly with clients in my salon). Starting the company not only taught me how to have a profitable work-from-home business, it also showed me the first-class marketing principles for salons (being a salon owner, I decided to niche in that industry). I have now sold my salon business and I have ten salon advertising clients (and yes I prefer working from home rather than being at the salon!). Sarah's program is chock full of the ingredients you need, she's always trying to make the program better, but still always willing to give us that personal touch. Do not hesitate to join her program. Thank you Sarah”
“The Sarah Mae Ives Mentorship changed my life. Do I need to say anything else? Support? THERE. Motivation? THERE. Encouragement? THERE. the technical ingredients you need to succeed? THERE. I just can't stop saying how great this program is and how wonderful the community is alone (honestly the community is worth the price of admission on its own). Just join now if you're debating it. You won't be sorry!”
“I took the program when I felt like I was out of all other options. I had been laid off from my job and had three months to kick things into gear or I was going to have to go back and find a low-paying job that I hated (I know that sounds really negative but it was true - I wasn't in the best spot). While most of my family and friends told me I was being stupid, I went out on a limb and enrolled in Sarah's mentorship. I cannot overstate what a life-changing decision this was for me.
Immediately when I entered the program I could see just how many supportive and friendly and encouraging women there were in the program. They seemed to be having success and were always asking questions about their clients. But still, I wondered if I could do it. I kept focused, attended the calls and made my way through the programs. About halfway, I started doing local outreach and I secured my first client deal. From there I onboarded that client and I'm now ecstatic to say I've onboarded my tenth client. Simply more than I ever could have realized. Sarah, you have created a game-changing program. You have saved me and my family from a situation we would have been miserable in. I can now afford vacations, I'm paying off my debt and getting excited about life in general, something that almost brings me to tears because I was so low and down when I saw your ad. Sarah, thank you.”
“When I started a business I didn't know what to expect. I thought maybe I'd work an hour a day and build a side hustle. I wasn't expecting to fall completely in love with this business and with Sarah's program. I always wanted to own a business but I could never really think of a good idea until I saw Sarah's ad on Instagram. How lucky am I for that! So what started out as a small side hustle morphed into my full-time gig and I was able to quit my teaching job.
her community is extremely supportive - they are literally hundreds of successful and highly supportive women in her program (there are some guys too for the guys wondering!). In addition to that Sarah is there always. Sarah's dedication to her program and improving it when needed is I think unmatched. I've yet to see any other guru do this at all. Sarah you are really the best. Thank you so much for starting this program and making it what is is today.”
“The no-fluff mentorship program is wonderful. You have live support every day of the week (sometimes more as many days they have two calls), You get ALL the support you need, so many video modules, plus live, over-the-shoulder training and troubleshooting. They literally included all the bells and whistles you could possibly think of without overwhelming you (ok, well, it's slightly overwhelming at first but your brain quickly gets used to it). This program was everything I could have hoped for a more. And they continue to make the program better year over year, what started out as a simple training, is not a bonafide Certification Program so I can feel confident when I talk to prospective clients. They keep adding more and more and everything you need to succeed. Thank you Sarah SO MUCH!”
“I took Sarah's mentorship after years of barking up the wrong metaphorical tree. I think it was in 2021 that I first saw her ad. I debated for months and months and now I wish I just had started right when I first saw it. But no worries, I'm still well on my way to having the profitable business I always dreamed of. The fun part about this business is you can choose the types of clients you want to work with and Sarah is always there for you if you have questions. Sarah is so genuine and down to earth, you'd never know she runs a million-dollar business (but it makes sense). She never makes you feel stupid and the rest of her support staff are the exact same. I can't tell you how many times I felt worried and they came to the rescue. They hold your hand through everything and every step of the way. And if something needs to be fixed, they are on it and fix it right away. Once I ran into a client issue and Sarah was there on messenger coaching me through the entire ordeal (and the whole thing worked out in my favor but if I were going through it alone I don't know how I would have survived). Thank you Sarah and your team and for everything you do. I recommend your program to absolutely everyone I can. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
“I first heard of Sarah by seeing her No Fluff book advertised on Instagram. It piqued my curiosity and I thought WHY NOT!!!. I read the book from beginning to end in one sitting and booked my call for the next day. When I talked to a graduate on her team, I know that I was ready to dive in and make some serious money. I talked to my husband who was a bit skeptical but he trusted my intuition and for that, I'm soooo grateful. Sarah's program was just what the doctor ordered and I'm now deep into the program, have my first five clients (YES, FIVE) and I'm so hopeful and optimistic for the future when a year ago my life felt totally different. Thank you Sarah for all that you do and for giving me this chance to learn something that's really in demand.”
“Sarah's program is the best. She is the teacher to go to if you want to learn how to do ads management. What I love about Sarah is that she not only teaches women how to have successful businesses, she walks the talk, always giving us nuggets from her own and her client's campaigns. With Sarah I know I'm in good hands, I heard she spends at least ten of thousands of dollars in ad spend per day and being a part of her team in this way has been transformative for me, my business and my confidence. I feel truly at home in her community and at home with myself (at peace with myself) because I've been given this god-given chance to start a business again when I thought all was lost. I highly recommend Sarah's no fluff program. I also love her book and recommend that too!”
“My name is Ruth and I'd like to write this review for Sarah Mae Ives. When I first saw her program, I wondered if it could really be as good as it seemed. It was and more. While it was definitely more work than I was expecting, what I really love is how much I now help clients and give them the expertise they need to run their own businesses (while I manage the ads and the marketing)
My dad was in sales and growing up I thought it would be best to stick to a more traditional job. But I got itchy fingers and I never felt like I fit in and I badly wanted to do something different. I bought into many other programs too, ones that got me really in debt and I was close to giving up. I'm lucky that I found Sarah's program because now I not only have ten clients and a thriving business, I'm also 50% of the way to paying off all my debt and I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel.
Not only is Sarah's program amazing, but the community of women (and some brave men) is tremendous. Thank you Sarah.”
“I've taken several entrepreneurship courses, and this one was absolutely worth it! This is the first course that showed me the technical side of Facebook Ads and the systems I needed to run my entire business. Sarah sets herself apart by guiding you on all aspects of an Ad Agency and making herself accessible for questions. If you want to succeed as an Agency owner, I highly recommend this course.”
“SARAH I LOVE YOU! I love what you've done FOR US! For all the amazing women in your program! I thought at first this was possibly a huge, maybe the biggest mistake I'd made after I jumped in BUT once I joined the group and saw how many other AMAZING and COURAGEOUS women were in there, asking the questions about THEIR clients I knew I'd be OK. I cannot tell you how many times I have thought to THANK GOD I came across your profile on Instagram. I was working in a kitchen and it was a job that felt like it was KILLING me. My life is different now. THANK YOU THANK YOU YOU ARE THE BOMB”
“This is a review of the Sarah Mae Ives Mentorship. I joined the program in late 2021. At that time, when I joined I thought, Oh MY God, there are so many people how in the world will I be able to find clients? I was wrong. In one of the first modules, Sarah goes through all the different types of businesses there are that you can run ads for and strategies you can use to reach out to them. Before I finished the course materials, I had already had 3 people in my community who wanted me to run ads for them and were willing to may me well for it. My first two clients paid back the course investment.
I had never thought of this idea before I saw Sarah's ad and I am so happy that I did. This business was easy enough to learn (yes it requires some concentration and dedication) and getting clients felt like a breeze in comparison to the other businesses I started! Thank you so much Sarah. Your program has changed my life and for that I'll forever be grateful.”
“As a serial program taker I would say this is the first time I got my monies worth. With the exception of doing the work and being motivated, this is on you, Sarah’s program delivers everything needed to be successful! The content is clear, the support is unmatched, follow the process don’t try to reinvent it. If you’re considering making a career change to ads management this is exactly where you need to be! When I say that this course has been life changing for me I mean it!”
“There are so many fake gurus in the online space, but Sarah is one of the gems. She's down to earth and genuine and so is her program. While it's not perfect (sometimes they have a video or two that's confusing) but they are ALWAYS first to fix it and re-record it so that it makes more sense. Sarah and her team are hands-on. The group calls are always small and you can always answer your questions. (And yes I sometimes I ask them so many questions I'm not sure why they're not sick of me!). But they are so patient and kind. Thank you Sarah for building a wonderful program and helping people like me to start a business. I never thought I'd find something that I enjoy so much that's actually helping other people.”
“I'm a mom with four kids and the thought of going to a 9-5 job felt suffocating. With four kids, the cost of daycare and before care and aftercare for my older ones would easily outweigh what I was able to make in the office. My husband supports the family but that wasn't enough to allow for the vacations and small luxuries we wanted. When I spoke to one of Sarah's graduates, I knew right away I wanted to do this.
I quickly dove into the program and made it through the materials in about two weeks. I set up my website and started my ads within the first month. The first person I talked to said they wanted to work with me right away. The rest is history. I've now got a business that easily generates 8-12K per month (it's crazy even to type it really).
Sometimes I get scared and hope that I'm leading my clients with the right knowledge but Sarah always reassures me and works with me on ad accounts week after week. I know that being a part of her team means I have her expertise in knowing how to structure ad campaigns, on what changes to make etc. I hope I will know Sarah for a long time. Her program is simply phenomenal and writing this testimonial for her is the least I can do to pay her back. Oh, and the bonus is my husband and I just booked a family vacation to California, it's literally something we could have never considered before. Thank you so much Sarah and her team.”
“I'm from the west coast and was really into living a lifestyle of flexibility because of my love of skiing and just generally being a ski bum. I was dreading the day I needed to get a real job. Then one day I saw Sarah's ad and here we are. I'm now working from home, I've got clients I love, I'm doing something that's rewarding and that allows me all the time and money I need to do my hobbies like skiing. I highly recommend the mentorship. Sarah's kindness and support feel like one of a kind.”
