Fraud Warning: Troy Broussard (owner of Learnistic)
My comment has nothing to do with the function or content in this app.
It’s 100% about how Troy (owner of Learnistic) run his business.
Which I think is completely illegal.
For anyone considering using or investing in Troy’s app or course - including Learnistic, Berserkmail, SocialLiar, and Redirect.io - here’s something you should know:
When you buy any of Troy’s product, you are obligated to receive his email for life, regardless if he’s spamming you or not.
Because Troy will remove access and take away product that you’ve already paid for when you unsubscribe to his email list.
This means even if you bought a marketing course… you have to tolerate Troy emailing you about buying option and stock trading every single day. (Yes, he email daily - often about topics completely unrelated to the product you buy. But you can’t unsubscribe.)
I don’t think this is legal, but his support team will tell you that, “This is just how they do business and you should ‘learn’ from them. Either you re-subscribe… and stay subscribe forever… or they can take your money without delivering the product.”
Since I’m forced to get unwanted email on a daily basis… the definition of spam.
I’ve filtered all Troy’s email to the spam folder and filed a FTC fraud report already.
So, think twice before buying from Troy or investing in his app.

To Troy’s support team:
I told you. This model does not make sense. You’re only hurting your own email software’s deliverability. But I guess you don’t care.
I feel sorry for the businesses using Berserkmail.Show lessA. Hsu
Outstanding tool!
Learnistic is a top-notch tool for connecting an independent content creator with his or her fans/subscribers/listeners, what have you.
It’s super easy to use, and it creates a seamless experience for creator and consumer alike.
No, it’s not “cheap,” but the value compared to developing and maintaining an app of this quality makes it a no-brainer.Show lessjamesdnewcomb
Good tool, just be nice to the creator or else
Learnistic is a really powerful tool that I was really excited about using to build my business. The flaw with it, and I’m glad I discovered it before getting too far into the weeds with it, is that it’s far too tied to a personality. The owners of Learnistic are heavy on the “personality branding” way of doing business. This is a sound strategy on an intellectual level. However, I found that simply unsubscribing from an email list from the creator of Learnistic deleted my access to his entire app! This included several courses for which I paid not a small sum. If there were a way to unsubscribe without having to deal with that headache, it would be really great as I just didn’t care for his email style but didn’t want to lose all the content I had purchased. To sum up, great product as long as you stay on the good side of the creator. Should you unsubscribe from his email list, God help you and you’ll probably end up as the topic of one of his emails as an example to others who dare stray from the pack. Sounds more like a cult the more I write this review. Glad I got out on so many levels. James NewcombShow less
