Quantum Manifestation CoachTM Certification Program

_________________ (participant name), thank you for joining Loren Trlin, LLC (the “Company”), for the Quantum Manifestation CoachTM Certification Program (the “Program”). This Agreement starts on the date that you, the “Participant,” signs this document. Participant is a business owner and enters this Agreement in her business capacity.  

This Purposes of this Agreement:

This Agreement is made so that Participant can participate in the Certification program (the “Program”). The Program has two parts: an educational component for use in Participant’s own business, and upon completion of certain requirements, a certification opportunity which, if successful, allows Participant to call herself a Certified Quantum Manifestation CoachTM and market the Program to third parties within Company guidelines and upon purchase of a license. 

This Agreement DOES NOT do any of these things:

This Agreement does not make Company and the Participant partners, joint venturers, co-owners, principals or agents, or employers or employees of one another. 

This Agreement does not sell or otherwise transfer ownership of Company’s intellectual property.

This Agreement does not promise financial results. 

THE BASICS

  1. The Program Price is $3,000 USD or two payments of $1,600 USD, payable every 30 days until paid in full. On occasion, Company may offer incentives and bonuses for joining; they appear in the sales materials for the Program and are incorporated as if fully stated in this Agreement. 
  2. This Agreement, the Company’s publicly available Policies and Disclaimers, and the Credit Card Authorization, if any, are the entire agreement between us. These written documents supersede our prior discussions, emails, online or voice messages. By signing, you agree that there is no information that you deem materially important that is not incorporated into this Agreement.

THIS IS WHAT YOUR PURCHASE INCLUDES AS A PARTICIPANT

  1. Access to the online portal. You receive access to the Program’s online portal, which includes recorded trainings for self-paced study.  
  2. Series of Eight Certification Trainings and Q&A Sessions. Trainings are typically 60 minutes with additional question and answer portion; replays available in the portal.  
  3. Certification Opportunity. Upon completion of the requirements you will find under the heading “Certification Prerequisites” in this Agreement, you may call yourself a Certified Quantum Manifestation Coach™ and market your status in accordance with the Company policies identified in this Agreement. 

Please understand: Occasionally the curriculum, guest experts, and channels to access the Program and its representatives may have to change based on group needs, available technology, and factors outside the Company’s control. The Company will replace or substitute the items above, if it determines it is necessary to do so in its sole discretion, with something similar of equal or greater value. 

CERTIFICATION PREREQUISITES

  1. Certification Requirements. Upon completion of these requirements, which shall be determined in Company’s sole discretion, you are eligible for certification as a Certified Quantum Manifestation CoachTM:

a. Attend All Certification Trainings Or Furnish Proof You've Listened To The Recordings

b. Complete quizzes related to each of the eight trainings; quizzes are housed in the training portal

  1. What does “Certified” mean? "Certified" means Participant has completed the requirements above, and agrees to meet and maintain compliance with other requirements set out in this Agreement to have continuing access to certain of Company’s Intellectual Property for purposes of marketing the Program. This may include purchase of an annual content license.
  2. When am I Certified? Participant may not use the moniker “Certified Quantum Manifestation CoachTM” without express written notification from the Company that you have met the requirements of this Agreement. 
  3. How do I stay certified? Company from time and in its sole discretion, may change, modify, or terminate certification requirements and benefits. You must comply with the changed requirements within the period of time set forth in the applicable policies to stay in compliance with any modified compliance requirements.
  4. A further purchase of a Content License May Be Required. At this time, the license is $500 per year and requires Participant to sign a separate agreement. Failure to maintain a current license agreement does not revoke the Participant’s Certified status; however, failure to pay the license fee removes Participant from the Company’s public directory of certified coaches and alumni community. 
  5. Certification not a condition of purchase. You may participate in the Program for your own sole and personal benefit without completing the certification component. 

YOUR CERTIFICATION INCLUDES

In addition to the materials included for Participants, upon completion of the optional certification component of the Program, you also receive:

Exhibit A

Marketing Guidelines

Loren Trlin, LLC expects its Licensees must also implement best practices when marketing the Program so that the chance of a deceptive marketing claim is minimized. 

What is a marketing message? Any website copy, Facebook post, Facebook group interaction, webinar presentation, guest post, or advertisement is a marketing message if it would be considered by a consumer in making a purchasing decision. If you are not sure if a statement is a marketing message, think of the statement in the opposite form and ask yourself if making the opposite statement would negatively impact the desirability of the product. If so, it is a marketing message. 

There are two types of marketing messages: Express Promises and Implied Promises. 

Never make an Express Promise. These often contain words like “You will [achieve some result]” or “We promise [a specific outcome].” You cannot guarantee an outcome because many factors come into play which are out of your control.  

Implied Promises do not promise results, but do suggest what results could be possible. 

You may use Implied Promises in marketing the Program if they meet three qualifications: 

  • 100% truthful (to the penny) and not exaggerated (for example, failing to clarify that the figures are gross, rather than net revenue). 

Desirable results sell, and anything that influences a purchasing decision is a marketing message. 

  • Not misleading or unfair. 

Your statements must tell the whole truth, not the “truth by omission” or a statement that is only “technically” truthful. Do not make statements about earnings if they were not directly related to the implementation of the Program. 

  • Evidence based. That means proof! 

You cannot make any statement that you do not have evidence to back up, whether through screenshots, emails, or otherwise. It can be tempting to use any result as support for a particular program’s results, but this is not based on evidence. Don’t use it! 

Remember: Implied promises are in the eye of the beholder. You want to be sure that all of the necessary information is present to make your marketing messages truthful and not misleading, because your potential clients may make a purchasing decision even if you did not mean to imply a promise about results.
