P.S. In case you have any questions, please email me. I do answer every email.
I just wanted to quickly let you know that the Master Class was perfect for someone starting out a business like myself. Helped me prioritize what I need to be doing and focusing on. It was not like other recordings I have heard b/c it dug deep into specifics. Thank you for making it available.
p.s. It worked in hooking me b/c I have purchased a product and joined 5000BC.
Take Care,
Nolan
I downloaded the class and have only gotten through about half of the material. But the half I’ve listened to has got me re-thinking about the way the material is presented to potential customers. I’ll be changing all the websites that I have soon based on this quality material. Thanks Sean!
Hi Sean,
I’ve been in business, especially sales & marketing for a while – but after listening to your masterclass – i felt like a country hick with straw coming out my shirt!
Your approach is simple yet revolutionary. I’ve just finished listening to all 36 audio’s! & it was all top notch stuff. Its so darn clever & cunning you could stick a tail on it & call it a weasel! 🙂
I’m in the process of implementing it – I have found all of the concepts useful.
The most useful concept to me, is that we’re educators rather than salespeople. I loved the example of the graphic designer offering an informational report, rather than trying to convince someone their stuff sucks.
In terms of results, its early days – though i’m confident that the principles I’ve listened to will be gold mines in the future.
Would i recommend the course – yes, wholeheartedly. (& i have done so)
Your education has worked – I’m a fan and consider myself fortunate to be one. My only regret is that i didn’t stumble across you stuff earlier 🙂
Thanks Sean
warm regards

The following is an email I received from you in April 2010. However, I never did received the information, but would certainly like to get it if still available.
Hi Fran
You are now on the Brain Alchemy Masterclass Waiting List.
==============
What happens next?
==============
In a few weeks from now you’ll get the information and links so you can download the audio files (yes all 33 of them) and the complete set of notes in PDF.
Expect to hear from me soon.
Warm regards,
Sean
I have always been a huge fan of Psychotactics. I’ve been reading Sean’s articles for over 4 years, and I can honestly say that the information they contain had a major impact on my decision to become an entrepreneur.
The Brain Alchemy Masterclass was another turning point for me. I was aware of 2 of the 3 prongs in the 3 Prong System, but I never looked at training in that way. And the way that the 3 prongs work together to create exponential business growth blew me away.
There were a few other points that really changed the way I am looking at my own business and marketing:
– the focus on the predictability of the brain to create customer triggers
– how problem-based headlines are really more powerful
– becoming your own “university.”
I anticipate big changes and big improvements as a result of having the opportunity to consume this amazing content. I can see why people paid $2500 to attend. May have been the best investment they ever made…
Thanks, Sean, for making this truly valuable resource available.
Hi Sean,
thank you so much. Your course is awesome. There were so many learnings for me. One of my favorite is: “be a university for your customers”. I always think about this point, doesn’t matter which project I am involved in (creating websites or marketing materials). This is so usefull for everyone. In my case, working as an SEO, I often deal with customers who don’t have any knowledge about search engine optimisation. The only key to get their attension is education.
I only recomend your course to my best partners, its not for everyone 😉
Thank you so much again. Greetings from Germany.

The Brian Alchemy Masterclass was an invaluable learning experience, loaded with valuable strategies, walk thru examples and insights, that i expect to use for years to come.
I really got the rollercoaster idea of problem-solution, problem-solution. I went back to the salescopy for my product and tweaked the headlines and the copy following them. I asked myself if people would want to know after reading each headline, “What do you mean by that?” I love Brain Alchemy, as all your products. I learn so much! Thanks, Sean. Blessings to you!
Sean,
First, I must thank you for your generosity in passing the Brain Alchemy Masterclass files not only to me for free, but to all the others who, like me, probably couldn’t afford to attend a direct action workshop. I listened intently to the whole sequence of the workshop files. I was very impressed, particularly with the very commonsense approach that came through the whole process of structuring a business. The first thought s I had after my exposure to the 3-Prong System and the Spider’s Web was this: how come I didn’t think of these things myself? They are so straightforward and full of common sense.
I am at the moment going through the process of establishing a consultancy business that will focus on helping small businesses to raise equity capital for expansion purposes. I also can provide other consultancy services. I had prepared a comprehensive business plan reflecting this and was working on the content for a supportive website.
The Alchemy Files caused me to carry out some major surgery on my business plan. Basically, I incorporated the 3-Prongs & Spider’s Web into the business plan. In particular, Alchemy caused me to change my business focus. Before Alchemy, I was treating all my skills in different business disciplines more or less equally. As a result of Alchemy, I changed my focus quite dramatically. I focused much more on the Equity Raising as the core business. I then determined that in negotiations with potential clients, I could throw in one or more of these other services as a bundle to close the deal. Of course these other services still have their own web pages, and clients can request them, but if they do, then I have a good chance to up-sell to my core service of Equity Capital for Business Expansion.
The other interesting point that I have adopted from Spiders’ is that my other services are not named using traditional ‘consultant-speak’. For example, I don’t refer to terms such as organisational development or strategic planning. I have services called ‘Profit Revival’ and ‘Pricing for Profit’. You can see what I’m getting at. Interestingly, all my supporting services are topics that would be included in the business plan to be prepared for a client, so there is a lot of synergy there.
In relation to the webpages, instead of the neutral or ‘solution’ headings that I had come up with before Alchemy, I introduced each page with a question and comment heading that could only be answered in the readers mind by by responding with a ‘How do you do that?’ or ‘How would you do that?’. I then moved into my pitch of what I wanted to say to the reader.
Consultants do not get paid assignments from advertisements or web pages. They have to develop a rapport with the client principal first. Once a degree of trust and confidence is established, the consultant has a chance for some work. Consequently, my web pages all lead towards encouraging the reader to contact me personally by phone or e-mail. It’s a bit Star Trek really: the first contact is so important.
I have a webmaster son who is doing the techie work for me. As soon as I am up and running, I will let you know. Like Margaret who contacted you on April 19, I am also starting off with a new business at 69 years young.
I would really like to thank you again as Alchemy has been very important to the planning and development of my business plan.
Sincerely,
Graham S
Your masterclass has allowed me to set-up a bulletproof framework for creating marketing plans for my online clients.
By simplifying a marketing plan into the 6 bag approach we were able to speed up action plans for our clients that are getting bottom line results for our clients.
Thanks Sean. You are helping my company get closer to being self-sufficient one bag at a time.
Sincerely,
Brian Mcfarlane
Hi Sean,
Thank you for this gift.
I have read and listened once to this course and it has already helped me immensly. The 3 Prong Process is a great system. I haven’t mastered it yet but I use parts of it every day. I have begun to move my efforst towards my ultimate goal of converting my business into an Information based business. I have begun to write my first course to help a certain target audience market themselves and although I have only just begun I am beginning to feel some liberation from the chains of my old business, the business I want to change.
The 3 Prong Process is helping me to focus and limit what I do to 3 steps in each direction to do 3 things at a time, it simplifies what would be very complex things to plan and implement.
This is also a reminder to go back and to listen and read it all over again which I am now looking forward to.
Cheers and thanks again 🙂
Sean, I have only just dipped my toes into this and I have yet to decide whether to slap you or give you a hug!
Too brilliant!
Really looking forward to learning more.
Hi Sean,
The brain Audit was great! in fact all the files ive received have been good… However, i am at the frustrated stage as i try to apply all this to my business. I feel like the guy mowing the lawns, continuing to say to people ‘ i mow lawns!”
Actually, i sell a card game on line – or am trying to!
At least this has given me a path to follow & some inspiration
Thanks Sean!
Hi Sean and Renuka,
First of all thank you for your generosity in making the Brain Audit Masterclass available for us. Would I buy it? Most definitely yes.
Ok. That’s all well and good but why would I buy it? Is it because I’m in the Sean and Renuka fan club?
Nope. Purely and simply the information provided has really helped me to drill down my thinking and put structure on my business.
Where am I at with the Brain Audit Masterclass right now? I’m currently on my third time round listening. I do this on my commute to work as being able to zone during the mad Tokyo train journey is essential… but zoning with something that’s helping me think, learn, review, and apply new skills is fundamentally awesome!
I haven’t touched the PDF yet. I’ve always considered myself to be a reader and visualizer until I came across Sean. I decided to try his advice and not read but listen first… and I can say it works! I’m finding that on the first listen – bits went in and bits fell out of my brain ; ) On the second listen I was going “Hmmm I remember that from last time,” and starting to recognize key bits of information. On this, the third time round, I’m able to predict some things that are coming and think about the concepts much more clearly with regard to my own business development.
Am I getting it all yet? No. I get to around track 19 at the moment and feel like I’m back on new ground. That’s ok though. With each listening I know I will get a little further along my road to understanding… and I enjoy listening. The stories and analogies that Sean uses to help me understand help me stay focused and able to listen for longer.
What are the key takeaways for me at this moment?
There’s a few. This is what I’ve learned:
1. The Spider’s Secret – how to be sticky and bring people to me rather than be the fox, forever chasing after my customers… and having them get away! That’s a frustrating game to play!
2. The 3 Pronged System – from consulting, to training, to leverage. Fantastic! How to take the ‘you’ out of your business so you don’t have to be on call 24 hours but still provide the same excellent service you always have.
3. The definition of a client. Someone who needs my care, guidance, and protection. This is stuck by my computer now… and yes Sean, it has totally changed the way I write and structure what I’m doing.
Thank you!
Now… time to get back to it 🙂
Thanks so much. Honestly, I haven’t had time to read any of the pdf files I downloaded. I plan to in the near future and I thank you for making it available.
Jean
Sean, from the Brain Audit, where I started, to the Article Writing Class and now the Brain Alchemy Master Class (recorded version). Your training systems continue to impress.
When I first started reading your web sales pages a few years ago, as well as they were written, I must admit I was skeptical. And, even as recently as when I signed up for the Article Writing Class, I was reticent, you probably remember the thread of emails it took to get me to commit. From that point I have never looked back with regret.
I never regret getting valuable, applicable, profitable information. From the 7 bags, to the 3 prong system, the spider’s secret and so on . . . any of that information is worth the price of admission, and I got all of it.
Nothing but good things to say on this end.
– Dave
This is a very generous offer from Sean. I’m about half way through the Masterclass and have found it engaging, informative and slightly addictive. The MP3 format is perfect as I can listen on my drive to and from the office.
I’ve looked at several other people’s books and audio products and Sean confirms many of the points made and combines them to produce a better understanding and more importantly an action plan that’s achievable.
I’m a big fan of the Brain Audit and it’s brilliant simplicity (once you’ve seen it) and the Masterclass takes this to a new level. It’s proving a valuable asset as I relaunch a software product over the summer.
I like Sean’s approach to life and his reason for being in business – having a great life. Other publications are biased towards making stacks of cash, but Sean builds a business that gives him the freedom to take time off – fantastic approach.
Many thanks Sean for sharing this.
Nigel
The big take away so far, and the one thing to try and wrap your head around, is finding one individual and working with only that one individual to build a product or service around. The target audience, being that one person, is difficult to still grasp that a product launch can be built around and be done successfully beyond all expectations. I have yet to create that information product. So much rides on if that one person selected truly represents the thoughts, wnats, and desires of hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, millions, billions. That is the billions dollar questions. That is the ultimate question – Can it be… that this one person… and their problem(s) represents what could be equated to as mankind / womankind? Or at least a significant subset?
Great audio and support materials to bounce other teachings against “the standard”. I have listened to them again and again on my MP3 player in different environments so every listening is in a different place and time. The audios are great pondering material.
Sean, I may be the ONLY one experiencing this so take it for what it’s statistically worth…
I have listened to 5 audio files and the remaining 31 are calling to me 🙂
In other words, great content — I’ve just go so many things going it reminds me of the quote I heard in a writing workshop when publishing my first book:
* 95% of all books purchased are never read *
I dip into your masterclass in & about UK airports (not much of late, tho’…). Sometimes I have to get the laptop out on the plane to pour over it some more.
Your material has transformed my thinking on how to structure my income strategy. I am finally free from chasing more & more work & am now enjoying working on producing a ‘product’ I’d conceived a while back but have only just been able to make time for.
Liberating, insightful & practical stuff. Only thing that wasn’t great was some of the quality of the recordings.
Regardless of which, your wisdom has been hugely valuable (I shall be passing it onto my children) & a life-changing gift for which I am extremely grateful. Many thanks, Sean.
I was unsure what Seana would be able to pack into the workshop. But I knew it had to be good.
I knew it wouldn’t be a repeat of other stuff, but my mind couldn’t conceive of the time saving ideas he had to say in the workshop.
I guess the thing that was most useful was the idea of leveraging everything. Are you unsure of how that could be done? You’d better ask Sean.
Its helped me that is for sure.
This is the greatest! Everything I learn in this Master Class I implement and profit.
Thank you so much for being such an excellent teacher Sean – I am forever grateful for your strategies and the way you teach them.
Best regards,
Kelly
Dear Sean
Living in Switzerland I didn’t know of you and your fantastic offer until a colleague from Alan Weiss Mentor Club recommended you highly as a “crazy one, who gives away for free”.
I asked for the Brain Alchemy Masterclass , got it for free and ordered soon afterwards “The Brain Audit” and the “Article Writing Course”.
Do I need to say more?
Yes! Thank you very much
Gebi
I am never able to get over how much Sean gives away for free, and this class did not disappoint.
As an avid fan and a Brain Audit buyer from when it was around 26 pages long 😉 I thought there wouldn’t be much more to learn. But I loaded it into my MP3 player, put my 8 month old in her pram and off we went.
This course still managed to widen my eyes and make me nod in agreement even after all these years. I have listened to it once and am halfway through again. Whenever I need some motivation to stay on the right track off we go again for some fresh air.
Thank you Sean for providing this for the best possible price I could have hoped for 🙂
Hello Sean and Renuka.
The Brain Alchemy Masterclass was a Godsend to me as I could not afford this investment. I devoured the content with relish.
I liken the MasterClass to getting really good eyeglasses and only then realizing that you can now actually see: see the Systems, the Strategies and the Tactics that you could barely make out never mind understand or apply with what you thought was good vision, only to learn that you saw so little.
I listened to the audio 6 times consecutively and read the notes the same. I used Moleskin Notebooks to Mindmap everything. I listened to the Brain Audit Audio several more times as well.
My realization of what you have put together impresses me as I can see the effort and work that is behind it all. Thank you for saving me so much time and effort in groping around for this material.
I would not only recommend this product to specific profiles but to any one small business that was oblivious to the universal patterns that are contained in the training. It is a “must have” to be sure.
In my eyes I would make it compulsory to take this course after reading the Brain Audit before being able to go on to any of your other products.
Again thank you both for what I have been given.
Billy Delaney
Like many others have said, time was an issue for me. I almost didn’t start on the Brain Alchemy Masterclass because of all the material it contained. But one of the best things I like is that I can take it at my pace. It is logically organized and easy to work through.
Sean’s system just makes sense. It’s outlined step-by-step and directs you in not only *what* to do, but *how* and *why* to do it. I am in the process right now of creating a product based mostly on what I’ve learned from the Brain Alchemy course.
Would I recommend it? You bet!
Hi Sean,
Many thanks for the Master Class downloads. There is a huge amount of very high quality information and I am currently working through. My aim is to evolve my business model from a successful 20 year corporate coaching service to a seminar and workshop business helping other business coaches develop their selling skills in the corporate environment. I am sure that your material will support me on my journey and in turn I will be supporting you on yours. Best regards, Tony
Hi Sean,
Thanks for the Brain Alchemy Masterclass. I wasn’t sure I would have this opinion of a free class previously sold for several thousand dollars. I had lots of questions. Would the content be outdated? Would it be useful in my business? Would it be worth my time?
I have only made it about halfway through, but I learned some key ideas which are affecting my business. The Three Pronged Approach is a gold mine! It opened my eyes to taking multiple approaches to selling and delivering my intellectual property. I have a software product for small to medium sized businesses which helps them gain insight from their numbers. I am now developing a consulting, a training and two service offerings to leverage my investment.
This is a wonderful gift and I am looking forward to finishing it to see what else I will learn.
Thanks again Sean.
Sincerely,
Warren Hayford
My thoughts on the Brian Alchemy Master Class? Simply brilliant.
My recommendation? Buy it!
Having signed up and completed quite a few courses by various interent gurus, I am now very skeptical when it comes to training courses, as so many are promoted with maximum hype, ‘selling the sizzle’, yet the ‘steak’ is often sub-par at best; chewy (lots of talk about them), fatty (lots of stuff you don’t need), with lots of grissle (the stuff they are now trying to get you to buy to make it all work, even though their sales letter said this was ‘all you will need’) .
But Sean’s training is like a well tenderised, beautifully marinated, piece of perfectly cooked succulent, melt-in-your-mouth piece of prime beef. He doesn’t have to add a whole lot of gravy or ‘special sauces’ to ‘add-value’ because his content is great value.
Sean also doesn’t sell you on his course telling you it is the latest and greetest and then when you go to check-out try to upsell you to something even later and greater. With Sean, there are no cons, no tricks, no fluff, no shenanigans, . . . just substance — that’s why I have come back to Sean time and again for training.
I use the material in helping not-for-profit organisations increase their profile, their support base, and their donations freeing them from the grind of trying to get noticed and get funding and releasing them to carry out the work they exist to do in the first place.
Thanks Sean and Renuka!
The Brain Alchemy MasterClass provided me with a fresh view on the world of consulting and time management and how to grow my business. At first I was skeptical looking at how old the content was for this course… but my skepticism was soon put to rest after listening to the mp3’s as this information is timeless.
As a young business owner I often find it hard to make the time to work on my business rather then in my business, this course provided me with great strategies to help free up my time and make money by only doing things once but using modern technology to consult to multiple people.
Since listening to the Brain Alchemy I have redeveloped my website to educate potential leads and build credibility in an effort to reduce lead conversion times. In the last 5 Months it has brought me more leads then my old website ever did.
I would recommend this course to anyone who is looking for some inspiration about how to grow there business or free up there time.
Thanks Sean, I really appreciated this resource!
To be honest, in my current business I wasn’t really ready for the Brain Alchemy Masterclass. But I knew if it was from Sean it was going to be too good an opportunity to pass up, and I was right 🙂
Once I had absorbed the material I appreciated again what a master you are at making a process into a ‘relatable’ word picture – in this case the Three Prongs.
It really gave me a clear way to look at what I want out of my online business efforts and steered my thinking as I move onto new info-publishing areas. It has particularly helped me guide my thoughts towards areas that lend themselves to a sequential sales process, . If I can create a valuable ‘information spiral’ and have the same customers buy from me multiple times, what a pleasure!
I would recommend the course highly, particularly for anyone who is looking to scale a business away from being paid hourly for selling their expertise. It’s easy to grasp and helps you conceptualise the next step.
Thanks for the opportunity to benefit, I am a confirmed Psychotoon fan!
hi Sean,
I didn’t get all the way through the classes but I found the ones I did enriching, well presented, and highly informative… and I thank you for your generosity of spirit and exchange.
Hi Sean! Thank you SO much for sharing the Brain Audit Masterclass with me. I am taking a while to get through it because of selling a house and moving to another state, but the coolest thing about it is the HOPE that it gives me that I can take my business from “doing OK most of the time” to “DOING GREAT!” And I feel like I’m not just casting about trying random promotions and marketing efforts in a vacuum – it is a huge help to have a framework to think and work in, even though trial and error is still necessary.
Hi Sean,
Thank you for reminding me to dive into the Brain Alchemy Masterclass and leave a comment about it on this webpage.
I read through the entire PDF and love the entire range of concepts and practical advice that you offer. I am working on listening to the mp3 files, too.
I like your clear style of explanation and simple to understand examples. The concepts of leverage along with the strategies of the Spider Secret and giving are the best I have read in any Internet or off-line marketing course.
I was hesitant to try upselling; now I know that I am not fully serving my customers by educating them on what is possible for them. Your approach to staging consumption as an act of service and giving is brilliant.
Thank you for your patience and gentle nudging to learn this material, study it and put it into practice.
All the best,
– Dave
Hi Sean,
I just returned from exhibiting a new product at a trade show. I applied your advice about getting people to say “huh?” and “How do you do that?” and it worked! Our marketing pitch became exceptionally simple and we had folks lined up at our booth.
I look forward to applying more aspects from the course to our new business.
Thank you!
hey Sean & renuka!
when i was downloading the audio files for the Brain Alchemy Masterclass, i was expecting it to be just a longer, more detailed version of the Brain Audit. yet, just the next day i was shocked that it’s a universe on it’s own.
it does introduce the concepts of the brain audit (naturally). it also introduces loads of other concepts that are so simple to understand, and so powerful that implementing just one of them turned my business around.
my favorite is “the three prong system”. i’ve only started implementing it in my business, and i can already see results. we also provide communication consulting services. so we started implementing the three prong system with one of our customers, and all i can say is that he’s speechless.
i usually have a little trouble staying concentrated when listening to something, yet Sean talks in such a charismatic way that kept me motivated. he uses simple language, clear examples, and mind-blowing demonstrations that made sure i got the idea right and kept it.
i was also a little worried that the pdf was going to be a lengthy transcript of all three full days of the master class. i was wrong. the pdf is a god-sent. it’s a concise powerful tool i come back to whenever i want to freshen-up all the concepts and application of the concepts, without having to re-listen to the audio files. i love it.
this is a master class in a class of it’s own, i couldn’t find anything like it on the web. and for what i can make from it in it terms of revenue, i would say it’s “under” priced.
thanks you guys! you’re really something else.
love, will.
Hi Sean
I was so surprised when I received the gift of the 36 files containing the Brain Alchemy Master Class.The information on there proved so sound & relevant in answering the many questions I have about improving my business and moving ahead .It provided me with more ideas tips & answers then any business book I have ever read. GREAT WORK SEAN:)

Hello Sean,
I’m with the procrastinators. Last year was a last ditch effort to save a daytime business while holding a night and weekend job and single parenting my own and several other add-on kids.
This year I am starting to breathe again financially but still have the other things going on. As things pick up, I plan to give up several nights of my second job so I can once again pursue my goal of writing for a living. This is a long-term goal which may have to wait until the kid leaves home. Along the way I am taking baby steps which will include studying your program. So the day will come when I will-just not today. But, I do read your newsletter and appreciate what you have done by offering this information. I also appreciate your blunt delivery and see how much time and effort that saves. That’s a trait I intend to improve.
Hi there,
Thanks so much Sean, for the (free) opportunity to review your Brain Alchemy Master Class. I’m a fan of your ideas, but more so the presentation of your ideas – you have a talent for making concepts clear and understandable. Which is sooooooo missing from communication these days, especially over the web. Kudos to you.
Anyway, I liked the wealth of material in the Master Class. In fact, there was so much material – so many concepts to grasp – that it was almost a problem in itself!
Perhaps it was that I listened to the entire course over a couple of days, so it was difficult for all that information to really sink in. I felt a bit overwhelmed by the end of it all, a bit unsure what to do next.
With that in mind, I actually found the most useful part of the entire course (after going through it all , of course) to be the very last page of the .pdf. That gave me a clear outline, and a solid clue, as to getting started.
If I could offer any suggestion for improvement it would be to add a short audio summary, at the end of each section, outlining clear action steps people can take right now. And the same idea, in the .pdf. I know that info is in there but making a clear end to a section of learning, then a quick list of ‘here’s what to do now’ would’ve oriented me a little better.
That’s just me though 🙂
Overall, I’d say the Master Class was awesome and really opened my eyes as to how much is involved in marketing your business. It’s both exciting and daunting in equal measures.
Thanks for growing my brain a bit more. Appreciated lots.
Cheers,
ALEX
I found Brain Alchemy to be very inspirational and innovative. It has made me look at my business from a different angle with fresh eyes.
Thank you Sean. And also that you for your regular emails. I find them very helpful too.
Hi Sean.
I’m going to be really truthful:
I haven’t listened to a single audio all the way through, nor read a single pdf all the way through.
I did put the first audio track on CD for listening in the car, but I stuffed up somehow and the track wouldn’t play.
With the pdf’s, I usually only get about 4-5 paragraphs in before I find the first idea or concept that I’d like to try. So it’s going to be a long, slow process for me!
Do I get anything out of it?
Yes, I do.
And thank you very much.
Hi there,
I have done some of the free stuff – and I have to say I really have been impressed. I am at the stage of revitalising my business after a very tricky year last year (when essentially I was diverted by a lengthy building of an extension to our house – eventually (after the builders went out of business and I had to take over project management) it has had a successful conclusion and I have my own office space – but it leaves me with trying to get a business going again in the midst of huge recession too!
The podcasts and materials I have accessed have tapped into the way I was starting to think anyway and given those ideas much more confidence and somehow justification that I was on the right track. I would, when cash allows, like to get more involved in the psychotactics offerings as I am impressed by the energy and straight forward approach. It has been partly behind inspiring me to set up and keep going with my blog.
Thanks for this. Still sort of waiting for the hidden agenda but I don’t think there is one….
Sarah
It was good to have to re-read the Audit for answering Sean’s questions. I needed the nudge!
For me, the most useful section was about the three prongs. It gives me a progression for my enterprise. It’s like a dressmaker’s mannequin: forward planning, and production and targets can be stuck to it. A reminder that ‘more clients doing one-to-one’ is probably not going to plump my bank balance the way training and product creation is going to.
Connected with this was the part that shows how clients are led into an upgrade system to get more value. I liked the intentionality. I liked that at least one business has a process for moving clients from faceless wandering wallets to well-educated, trusted and valued. Feels great when it happens.
The next most useful was the reminder to ‘save everything – even the disasters’. Only trouble is – where’s the retrieval system?! Meantime, this is a step I have definitely implemented, and made a date with myself to work out just how I intend storing, retrieving, using.
The hardest for me was the audio. I know. I read the ‘back of the box’. Listen first, read later. It’s so SLOW!!!! And I’m not a listener. One step worse than video and transcripts, IMO. (Yet that audio will be precisely why others will sign up. 😀 )
I think I would recommend it. Even for a starting newbie such as I it was and is so practical.
Make it better? Magic would be an annual auto-responder service saying ‘Have you refreshed on the Audit this quarter?’ It’s not one of those ‘read it and forget it’ teachings.
Hi Sean,
Thanks a million. While I attended the class years ago, it was FANTASTIC to review everything again. I listen regularly to all your audios while driving, running, and at the health club.
I use the 3-prong system for all my endeavors.
I would certainly recommend this course to anyone who’s trying to develop a business of any kind.
Best Regards,
Mike Hayden
Firstly Sean, thanks for the access to more of your material
I enthusiastically downloaded all of it and haven’t looked at it since. Can you believe it? I think I’m doing things backwards … trying to get organised before I read/listen to the masterclass instead of using the material included to improve my efficiency etc.
I will get there though 🙂
Cheers,
Dennis
Thank you for the information.
You would be able to cover more information in less time if it were a lecture instead of a classroom interaction.
I downloaded every bit of the Brain Alchemy Masterclass and have two things to say:
1) Thank You Sean for your generosity.
2) Awesome!!! Has helped me advance my online business.
Hi Sean!
I have written an email and a comment and lost them both before
I could submit it.
Let me get rid of the excuses to ease my guilt. I think my computer and my health had conspired together to make me unable to complete The Brain Alchemy Masterclass But the more I read the more I knew this is what I have been looking for. Audios are a bear
for me. But the PDF’s were marvelous. I still plan on getting through the audio’s. Enough of this.
Sean! I haven’t started a business, but rest assured I am learning how. My emphasis at the time is writing. I am pretty sure I can
now. I never thought about having a structure. But I know how it works now and believe I can do a lot better, and maybe some day
make a business.
Sean! The greatest thing to me that came out of the masterclass,
is the personal growth, besides structure, three prong planning and the Spider’s secret. I will certainly recommend it to anyone.
p.s. I did and will continue writing. 70 may be to late to start a
business but we’ll see.
God Bless
Margaret

I downloaded the Brain Alchemy Masterclass materials in November 2009. I read through the notes and listened to some of the audio presentations. As a result, I purchased the Brain Audit and have read it several times. I’m now a member of 5000BC and I am enrolled in Sean’s Writing Class. Sean’s ideas and articles make fundamental sense to me. The seem to integrate ideas that I have developed over two careers and they provide clear action steps. the writing course is simply excellent. I’ve written quite and bit and I wasn’t quite certain about the value of this program, but I can only say that I wish I had done it years ago. If you take it, and you should, somehow force yourself to keep up with all of the assignments. The value to you and your clients will be quite substantial.
Hey There Sean 🙂
I really appreciated the opportunity to view what you have to offer – I am one of the biggest skeptics but I have to say I was more than pleasantly surprised with what I received in your Masterclass. The information was very user friendly and I was relieved to find it was all “usable” to me. I am in the throws of setting up my Holistic Pulsing business which is a type of massage therapy if you like. Before receiving this valuable addition to my study I was getting overwhelmed with what I didn’t know . . . So many different directions to take at once, not to mention the fear . . oh the fear of missing some important ingredient in my business mix !! I really had no direction and no idea where to start. The professional structure of all of your information has given me my breath back.
The bonus for me was to have both options of the audio and the hard copy. I have used both. I have listened to the audio a couple of times now. I am a multi-tasker; I prefer to be listening to something informative while I’m driving or even doing housework.
What you teach takes away the skepticism because you really do practice what you preach, so in affect, I was actually experiencing this as a customer and a student 🙂
I am not able to give you first hand benefits because I am not officially off the ground yet but I am thankful this came to me when it did. I am now happy to pull back a minute, breathe and plan my successful strategy – you have removed a lot of the trial & error for me, thank you.
The Conveyor Belt analogy is priceless to me, but I can see as I progress through all the stages of my business everything you offer will become paramount to my business success in turn.
Recommend it to others – already have and do 🙂
I was so impressed I purchased The Brain Audit and can see I will be thankful in years to come that I invested in this gem and other gems you offer that I am yet to progress to.
Right now I could happily throw in my day job just to study all this welcome information!! . . . but alas, for now, it is funding my set up.
By the way, I was prompted through all of this to go searching online for what other info was out there . . . for me nothing compared. NOTHING !! It was all too overwhelming and exhausting.
The ongoing newsletters just keep the momentum going and to find you really are there on the receiving end of the emails and that you so promptly reply brings you into reality for me, it brings you to life as a real part of my support.
Sean and Renuka . . . Thank You 🙂
