I Tried “Automation Sales Unlocked” and Here’s My Honest Take
Hey there! I’m Alex, a digital marketer who was struggling to scale my business without working 24/7. After hearing about Maria Wendt’s Manychat® course from several people in my network, I decided to take the plunge during the first beta round. Here’s my unfiltered experience with this automation course that promises to help you make money while you sleep.
Quick heads-up: Maria just opened a second beta round with a special discount. If you use the coupon code “BETA” at checkout, you’ll save $900 off the regular price. I paid the full price during the first beta, so I’m honestly a bit jealous! Also worth noting – she’s added a brand new sales funnel that wasn’t available when I first joined, and from what I’ve seen in the group, people are getting amazing results with it.
What Made Me Decide to Try This Course
Let me be real with you – I was skeptical about another course promising automation magic. I’ve bought several courses that left me with more questions than answers, and I was worried this might be another one of those “great in theory, impossible in practice” situations.
What ultimately convinced me was seeing how Maria herself was using these exact strategies in her own business. Unlike other course creators who teach one thing but do another, she was actually walking the talk. Plus, the fact that she was focused on keeping automations authentic and non-spammy really resonated with me – I hate those robotic-feeling chatbots as much as you probably do!
What Sets This Course Apart (From Someone Who’s Taken Way Too Many)
- That New Sales Funnel: The recently added funnel is seriously game-changing. I’ve already implemented it and saw my first sale within 48 hours! It’s clearly been well-tested because it converts like crazy.
- Actually Doable for Tech Newbies: I’m not the most tech-savvy person, but I could follow along perfectly. Maria breaks everything down step-by-step with screen recordings that show exactly where to click.
- No More Robot Vibes: The biggest revelation for me was learning how to make my automations feel personal and genuine. My subscribers have actually replied to my automated messages thinking they were sent personally by me!
- Smart Sequences That Adapt: I used to send everyone the same messages. Now my sequences adapt based on what people click, how they engage, and where they are in the buying journey.
- Templates You Can Use Today: The ready-to-go templates saved me hours of work – I literally copied, tweaked slightly for my business, and launched.
What You Actually Get (Beyond the Sales Page Promises)
The Complete System That Actually Works
The core of the course is Maria’s automation framework that guides people from first contact to sale. I’ve implemented this for my social media consultation business, and it’s helped me convert leads that would have previously fallen through the cracks. The best part? Once set up, it runs 24/7 without me having to manually follow up with every single person.
That New Sales Funnel Everyone’s Talking About
I can’t overstate how valuable the new funnel addition is. Maria apparently spent months testing this in her own business before adding it to the course. When I implemented it, I was shocked at how quickly I started seeing results. The conversion rate is significantly better than any funnel I’ve tried before.
Tutorials Even My Tech-Phobic Mom Could Follow
I’ve shared parts of this course with my business partner who is notoriously “tech-challenged” (her words!), and even she could follow along. The step-by-step instructions are crystal clear with screen recordings showing exactly what to click and type. No more guessing or getting stuck halfway through setup.
How to Keep It Real (No Spammy Robot Vibes)
This was my biggest concern before taking the course – I didn’t want to come across as fake or pushy. Maria dedicates an entire section to maintaining authenticity in your automations, and it’s made all the difference. My engagement rates have actually increased since implementing these strategies because people feel like they’re having a real conversation, not being marketed to.
See It In Action Before You Build It
One thing I found super helpful was seeing these automation sequences in action before building my own. Maria shares real-world examples that you can experience from the user’s perspective. This helped me understand how things should flow and what good automation actually feels like from the customer side.
Smart Automation That Knows Your Customers
I used to send everyone the same generic messages. Now my sequences branch based on subscriber behavior – if someone’s interested in a specific service, they get information about that. If they’ve visited my pricing page but didn’t purchase, they get different messages than someone who’s brand new. It’s like having a sales team that pays attention to each prospect.
Templates That Saved Me Days of Work
The lead-generating templates alone saved me at least 20 hours of work. Instead of starting from scratch, I just customized Maria’s proven templates for my business. These aren’t basic templates either – they’re sophisticated sequences that have clearly been refined through lots of testing.
Ad Support (If You Want It)
I personally haven’t used the advertising component yet as I’m focusing on organic traffic first, but the course includes detailed support for running ads to your automation if you want to scale faster. My plan is to get everything optimized with organic traffic first, then use the ad strategies to pour fuel on what’s already working.
My Experience Going Through Each Module
Module 1: Getting the Foundations Right
I found this module incredibly helpful for setting everything up correctly from the start:
- The Manychat® account setup was straightforward, and Maria pointed out several settings I would have missed on my own
- Understanding how all the pieces work together gave me clarity I was missing from previous attempts at automation
- The section on ethical practices helped me feel confident that I wasn’t going to annoy my audience
- Learning about common mistakes saved me from several pitfalls I would have fallen into otherwise
Module 2: Getting Those Leads Flowing
This module transformed how I generate and capture leads:
- I created a lead magnet using Maria’s framework that has a 63% conversion rate – way higher than my previous attempts
- The opt-in sequence templates helped me build a subscriber list that’s actually engaged, not just a vanity metric
- I implemented one of the lead-generation templates and started getting quality subscribers within hours
- The analytics section helped me identify which lead sources were most valuable, so I could focus my efforts
Module 3: The Money-Making Funnel
This newly added module has been a complete game-changer for my business:
- Setting up the funnel took me about 3 hours following Maria’s instructions – way faster than I expected
- The customization points made it easy to adapt the funnel to my specific offerings without breaking what makes it work
- I was blown away by how Maria breaks down exactly why each element of the funnel works – it’s not just “do this” but “here’s why this works”
- Connecting everything to my existing systems was seamless with the integration tutorials
Module 4: Creating Smart Conversations
This module helped my automations feel genuinely responsive:
- Mapping out customer journeys revealed several gaps in my previous communication approach
- Programming responses based on user behavior was easier than I expected with Maria’s templates
- Building conditional logic sounds technical but was actually quite intuitive with the step-by-step guidance
- The testing framework helped me refine everything until it worked smoothly
Module 5: Scaling Up When You’re Ready
While I’m still implementing some of these advanced strategies, I’ve already seen benefits:
- The advanced Manychat® features took my automations to another level of sophistication
- I’m planning to implement the advertising strategies next month once I’ve optimized conversion rates
- The analytics dashboard Maria teaches you to set up has given me insights I never had before
- The scaling framework has helped me plan how to grow without getting overwhelmed
Who I’d Recommend This Course To
- Fellow Business Owners who are tired of doing everything manually and want to scale without hiring a huge team. This has given me back at least 15 hours a week that I was spending on repetitive tasks.
- Marketers looking for automation strategies that actually convert rather than just looking impressive on paper. The open and click-through rates I’m seeing are 2-3x what I was getting before.
- Entrepreneurs ready to build systems that can grow their sales process without requiring more of their personal time. This has been key for me to scale beyond trading time for money.
- Consultants who want to add automation services to their client offerings. I’ve already implemented some of these strategies for two clients who are seeing fantastic results.
- Anyone tired of spammy-feeling chatbots but who sees the potential in automation done right. If you’ve been reluctant to use automation because of bad experiences, this approach is completely different.
Keeping it real: While I’ve had great success with this course, results will absolutely vary depending on your market, offer, and how well you implement the strategies. Maria is clear about this too – the course provides amazing frameworks and templates designed for quick implementation, but you still need to put in the work and tailor things to your specific business. Some people in the community saw sales within 24 hours (I wasn’t quite that fast – it took me about 2 days), while others needed a few weeks to really dial things in.
“The biggest surprise was how this completely transformed my relationship with my email list. People actually REPLY to my automated sequences now, thinking they’re personal messages. That’s when I knew Maria’s approach was different – when automation feels so human that people can’t tell the difference.”
BETA ROUND OPPORTUNITY: Use coupon code “BETA” to save $900 like I wish I could have! Plus you’ll get access to that new sales funnel that’s working so well for everyone.
Answers to Questions I Had Before Buying
Do I need to be a Manychat® expert already?
Definitely not. I had barely used Manychat® before this course, and Maria starts from the absolute basics. The tutorials are incredibly detailed – she literally shows where to click, what to type, and explains why you’re doing each step. By the end, I felt like a pro even though I started as a complete novice.
Will I need to spend a fortune on ads?
Not at all. I haven’t spent a penny on ads yet and I’m still seeing great results with the organic strategies. The advertising component is completely optional, and Maria makes that clear. I plan to add ads eventually to scale faster, but it’s refreshing that the course doesn’t assume everyone has a big ad budget from day one.
How long before I might see results?
This varies quite a bit. Personally, I started seeing engagement (replies, clicks) almost immediately after setting up my first sequence. My first actual sale through the automation came about 48 hours after implementing the sales funnel. Some people in the community reported sales within 24 hours, while others took a week or two to dial things in. It definitely depends on your existing audience, offer, and how closely you follow the implementation steps.
What makes this different from other Manychat® courses out there?
I’ve taken two other Manychat® courses before, and they were very focused on the technical “how-to” without much strategy. What makes Maria’s course different is the focus on creating automations that actually convert while feeling authentic. The sales funnel blueprint alone is worth the price – it’s a proven system, not just theoretical concepts. Plus, everything is provided as templates you can immediately implement rather than having to create everything from scratch.
Will this work for my specific type of business?
I run a service-based business (social media consultation), and it’s worked incredibly well for me. Looking at the community, I can see people successfully implementing these strategies in e-commerce, coaching, agency services, digital products, and local businesses. The principles are adaptable to pretty much any business that benefits from lead nurturing and relationship building (which is most businesses). The course also includes specific guidance for adapting the frameworks to different business models.
