“It’s too costly for us to prove our marketing claims/we don’t have data. But this other company should and when they do we’ll say it’s garbage” is what I hear. This is terrible. Sounds like a scam

That's not what I said, I said it would be wasted money because we can't think of a "report" that would be useful. So we spend even MORE MONEY person by person going over these things. I think that is better but if you don't then you can call it a scam and not join, thats totally fine if that's your opinion. We are very diligent about feedback and actioning it and people wanting data is on the list, and the way we are working on that and have worked on it is by providing them more data. We have a bunch more data but it's only for people who apply and we get more info about you to provide you with more relevant data. That's how it should be - deliver the best product, not superficial garbage CIRR reports so that we APPEAR legit. We actually BEHAVE legitimately with integrity the best we can and over time that compounds into trust. If you behave sketchy and focus on superficial you end up like those actors in Hollywood that float around all the parties and look beautiful and everyone talks to but five years later have no career and no friends. It's about substance and not appearances.
