It is interesting to note that all of these 5 star reviews are of the same exact date. What do you make of that?
Edit: I don't know how to reply to your reply, so I will do it here:
1. Thanks for responding. A great many people just ignore comments.
2. Thank you for being transparent about the issue; that again shows your sincerity.
3. Let's talk about Branding for a moment, my favorite subject: Does asking for reviews help, or hurt a brand? To me, a brand is the total package of perceptions of a person or company. If you see 25 different Red Bull sponsored Sporting Events, the sum total of those, plus everything else you have ever read, seen, or experienced with Red Bull. Personally, I am not a RB consumer, but I do admire their branding efforts. Now, back to the subject: what do I take away from knowing that a company asked for reviews? I will leave my answer to that aside, as it's only my opinion, but in short, I do think that it lessens the brand.
In any case, I am happy to have had a chance to discuss the matter. Again, thanks for responding, and I am updating the review accordingly.

Reply from The Futur
I bought the Accelerator course after years enjoying a ton of free content on YouTube. These guys know their craft and, moreover, know how to teach to a creative business. Actually learning without feeling being taught is the longest lasting teaching approach.
Form follows function and the futur is beautiful.
The content of their courses is impressive, with teachers from the top of the industry. Their communities are very active and helpful, the most valuable ones I ever found online!
All the products from thefutur are absolutely awesome. I have purchased Perfect Proposal, MBJ Brand Identity Course, and the branding basics from Anneli. Also, I'm in the accelerator program and it's been a blast, I've learned and improved SO MUCH. I'm already 3 times a better artist/manager/business owner that I was 2 months ago! X)
Excellent products, great people and an awesome community
I've been a follower of The Futur for many years, absorbing valuable insights from their YouTube videos and short courses, and it has been a game changer for me.
When they launched the Accelerator program, I joined during the first month, expecting a positive impact on my creative process and business strategies. Little did I know that it would exceed my expectations and become a pivotal turning point in my creative journey.
The step-by-step approach provided is nothing short of fantastic. It's a comprehensive guide that takes you through every aspect of building a business from the ground up. The well-structured modules offer a seamless progression that ensures you grasp each concept before moving on to the next. This approach has been instrumental in helping me apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios, making the learning experience not only educational but also highly practical.
One of the standout features of The Futur's accelerator program is the personalized attention and feedback provided. Ben and Stephanie are not just experts in their fields but also genuinely invested in the success of each participant. The interactive sessions and constructive critiques have been instrumental in refining my approach and pushing me beyond my comfort zone.
I joined the Accelerator around 6 months ago after attending one of Chris Do’s live events.
As an experienced freelance designer, I always struggled with managing my sales and leaden process. Now I have a clear roadmap and lots of templates and resources that help me manage my business and generate leads!
This program can help newbies and long-time business owners alike. The curriculum is very well structured and you are required to do your homework before you move on to the next module. This ensures that you are actually implementing the knowledge and keeps you motivated.
Moreover, the community is incredibly supportive and Ben and Stephanie are always there if you have any questions in the live Q&A calls :)
I highly recommend The Accelerator program to anyone in the creative space!
For me, The Future Pro Group is about diverse people coming together with a common goal of improving their knowledge and business. The positive attitude, smart insights from Chris Do, and the professionalism of his team make it a great experience.
Amazing community and curriculum for creatives. I've been a member of the Accelerator group now for over a month and I've already recommended it to several colleagues. If you're looking to grow your business and connect with mentors and fellow creatives, I highly recommend The Futur's membership / course options.
I've been following Chris Do, Ben Burns and the Futur all over the internet for many years and am a part of the inaugural class of the Accelerator program. I was a business newbie when I started and having them to guide me along the way with learning courses, resources and coaching has been nothing short of gold. Irreplaceable. Consider them and everything they offer your personal mentor.
I've been in the Accelerator program for a few months now. I've gained so much value from The Futur's channels that I figured I'd give it a shot - and I was not disappointed.
Like all educational materials, it all comes down to two things: the content and the teachers. In this case, both are extraordinary! Ben and Stephanie never miss to give wonderful feedback, support (both content and emotional support), and motivation to achieve your dreams and getting to where you'd love to be.
It was a big financial commitment to enter the course, but worth every penny. I wouldn't be where I am today without the community and educators helping me every step of the way.
The only criticism I have: the lessons are closer to lecture style, like a zoom university with slideshows, rather than the high quality professional video that is edited down for time saving purposes. I tend to learn better when the information is concise and practiced, presented and polished rather than presented live to a zoom call (which is then recorded for the course).
The content itself, though, is phenomenal. They take the time to build the foundation on which your business will stand on, giving you lots of tips (and some feedback) along the way.
Overall, I would recommend this to anyone looking to get more serious with their creative service business and take it to the next level. The course is difficult because creating a business is difficult. But if you follow their steps, they will lead you right to success.
I'm an accelerator member and I've been following thefutur for almost 5 years. Every content, livestream, webinar, email, course, product I've engaged with has been packed with value.
Till this day I think I've gained more real world insight in design and the business of design because of thefutur.
I feel bad for designers on a pre-futur world.
I'm part of Accelerator program, now in second module. So far it was amazing, great community of people witch helping each other and even better couching from Ben and Stephanie on group Friday calls.
The value for creative businesses that is provided is sheer endless. I consumed Chris Do and TheFutur content for nearly over a year and just started in their Accelerator program.
They completely changed my view on selling and positioning as a creative person. Worth every second and dollar.
I never was a big friend of communities in the past, because I didn't see that much value in writing with strangers, but they changed my mind 180.
My previous graphic designer mentor suggested The Futur 2 years ago. Then I watched 100s of their videos and read loads of articles from them, and I can 100% say they changed my life in business and graphic design.
I've bought Futur's Carousel Design Course, which helped me immensely with my content creation.
But my biggest and best decision:
Three months ago, I finally had the opportunity, time, and income to invest in and level up my business. So, I bought The Futur Accelerator membership.
This was the best decision of my life. My mentors, Stephanie Owens and Ben Burns, are highly professional and supportive - you can ask them any questions, and they always answer and help in the best possible way. The modules are logically made and have a vast amount of never-heard knowledge. And most importantly, they work!
The other fantastic thing is the community. I could meet many like-minded people, and we supported each other in answering any questions or if we felt low.
Trust me, they are not only incredible on YouTube, but phenomenal in their courses and memberships.
Amazing advice for creative entrepeneurs. Is there a better feeling that hearing someone put into words feelings you could have never expressed yourself?!
That's Chris Do and all his team.
I am following The Futur for a long time now and decided a couple months ago to join their Accelerator program.
So far Accelerator has exceeded my expectations by far!
The coaches of the program, Stephanie Owens and Ben Burns are very caring mentors and go above and beyond to provide us with tailored advice on how to find clarity in our businesses and making the right decisions.
The whole process is guided with a well organized curriculum, homework requests that are reviewed by experts and a wonderful community that won't let you down.
I can confidently say that joining Accelerator was the best decision I made for my business this year!
I’m a member of the Accelerator program headed up by Ben and Stephanie. Two decades long career I’ve been through countless training programs and courses. I can say without any hesitation that I’ve never experienced so much value. Apart from the sage wisdom and experience that’s continually being shared in the group Ben and Stephanie have honed in on a very specific pain point for creatives who are terrible at marketing themselves and their business. They’ve created a perfect roadmap to guide you through the process and equip you with the tools you’ll need to succeed. No sugar coating — if you’re not willing to work your tail off you won’t find the true benefit. That aside, between the incredible creative community from all over the world and coaching we receive from B & S you’d be hard pressed to find more tangible value anywhere else.
I’m in Accelerator program and so far like everything about it. I did join this course about 4 months ago and found warm and welcoming community and great coaches Ben and Stephanie. I would recommend this program to any creative person in the beginning of a business building.
