Just wanna share my experience since there is always so many internet marketing courses in singapore and malaysia, this one by Pam Siow or Pamelina Siow from the internet biz owner's club is quite a scam in that they promised so much to deliver in the course, especially the advanced course but didn't fully deliver. I call this cheating. I am the unlucky one who signed up the advance course and at the receiving end of this bad business ethics.
the worse part is when you feedback and pursue they apologise and dragged on .. say compensate with coaching and other stuffs but then deliver with bad attitude.
if an educational course is to be delivered with bad ethics how can one learn?
I think the issue should be whether you see the result of making money after attending her course. You want more education learning of internet marketing you can always read it up online.
as a business owner, I see the issue here as bad business ethics. money can always be made applying the knowledge, but before that, non-delivery, bad business ethics, bad attitude.
Kind to care what they can't deliver? E.g Classes keep postponed or speaker don't show up etc?
By the way, I heard that Pam Siow is the Internet Marketing coach for companys like ERA, not that I am speaking on her behalf, but if there are problem with her business 'ethics', she would have getting into trouble long time ago.
well there are tons of complaints about her, from malaysia to singapore:

and yet she is everywhere.
business owners who have been in business for 10 years or so will know, keeping to integrity is sometimes not easy as we are not perfect, and yet, it's extremely crucial.
Just out of curiosity, who recommend you for the Internet Biz Owner's Club's course in the first place? Or it just you only attend one of their seminar through some media and maybe their sales team are good in persuading you, and if so, how do they do that?
For me, usually I will attend (if I can) or listen to summit like this : http://trafficandconversionsummit.com and know what are the guest trainers' strategies on internet marketing before decided if they are worth the penny.
You should also take note of one of the comments where an experienced internet marketer caught her doing the "signed in to google account personalized search trick".

She's not on the first page for "violin lessons" on google. But she showed that she was first for that keyword - Only On Her Computer.

well "M the name" if someone promote the course with a list of deliverables I trust that they will be achieved. it dragged on more than 1 year and not completed so I cannot go to SCT to claim.
