An Overview – What is Bring the Fresh?
Bring the Fresh, which will be referred to as BTF a lot in this post, is a community-based platform that teaches you how to build your own online business. Much like my number one recommendation, BTF offers a lot of learning resources ranging from a few PDF documents to video training. This training includes lessons on the basics for beginners as well.
Since it is a community-based platform, the content within BTF constantly evolves to keep up with latest updates on Google and other search engines. This way, the training does not get outdated. Despite the similarities between BTF and my number one recommendation, there are still some huge differences between the two. I will be digging into this within this post.
Bring the Fresh Pros
- The website builder makes it easy to create an attractive and fully functional website with just a few clicks, even if you have not made one before
- Training is step-by-step, comprehensive and easy to follow
- Consistent updates to learning materials, meaning content never gets outdated
- A lot of video tutorials (great for those that learn well through videos)
- A member forum where you can get advice and ask questions to other members and experts
- Owner has a reputable track record in the internet marketing industry
- 60-day money back guarantee
Bring the Fresh Cons
- A huge chunk of information is presented through webinars (bad for those that don’t learn well through videos)
- Does not include all the important tools you will need to run an online business. For example, your own domain, web hosting etc..
- Encourages practices that could easily backfire. Like the use of backlink builders, article spinners etc..
- There are a lot of upsells within this program. Some of these head into the 1000’s
- NO FREE TRIAL MEMBERSHIP
Who is Bring the Fresh For?
BTF is for the beginner who has never built a website before, and the experienced internet marketer looking for a community to be kept in the loop of frequent updates that occur on the internet. BTF offers quick start guides and a range of interviews, meaning there is something for both the beginner and the advanced guy.
Overall, Bring the Fresh is for anybody that wants to learn to build a business online.
Bring the Fresh Training & Tools
The training comes primarily via webinars, with a few PDF documents as well. They also offer a few tools to get started like a simple-to-use software that helps build your website, but there are many more external tools they promote for your success in the form of upsells. Web hosting is not included in your membership, neither are in-house tools like a give-and-take comment thread or live chat to name a few.
As soon as you complete the sign-up process, you gain automatic access to a fresh start guide which navigates you through the direction you need to follow to begin with Bring the Fresh. The guide is updated as often as Google updates their procedures.
A list of specialized keywords are also offered as an additional bonus to people who are just beginning the BTF program.
Let’s Talk About Bring the Fresh Support
In this regard, Bring the Fresh offers a far better deal than a lot of other platforms. There is a forum board within BTF where members can communicate directly to one another about questions and concerns they might currently have.
This board is easy to navigate with a subject title, a moderator (author), author of the last post, number of replies and views, and timestamps. There is also an extensive index of FAQs where a lot of questions could be answered as well.
The importance of readily available support cannot be overstated, as it does put an end to being stuck for a long time and leads to less frustration, especially among beginners. For this, I tip my hat to the work done by Bring the Fresh.
The Price
This is where I have a problem with Bring the Fresh. While the initial lifetime membership price is set at $89, if you make an attempt to navigate away from the selling screen at any point you will get a pop-up offering you a 60% discount for a Lifetime membership. This way you will only pay $37.
The only reason they do this is because it better for them to get you in at a cheaper rate and bombard you with lots and lots of upsells, than to lose you all together. This process is called Down-Selling, and it is, unfortunately, common practice within this industry.
What exactly do you even get for $47?
- You get basic training
- Access to community forums
- Website-building software
For a one-time payment of $37, this might make sense. But considering you might have to pay from $100’s – $1000’s for more tools you actually NEED to own an online business, it is utterly ridiculous.
If Bring the Fresh did not offer the quality training and support they offer, they would easily have made my Scams list due to the amount of information they withhold until after you have signed up.
And by the way, the trial membership is not Free. I mentioned here how I feel about platforms not affording you the chance to check out what they have to offer at no cost.
Closing Thoughts on Bring the Fresh
I think Bring the Fresh does offer a pretty decent platform for anyone interested in learning how to build a business online. You can totally succeed online with the training you get with Bring the Fresh. They stay up to date with recent changes in the algorithms of Google and other search engines, which a lot of other training platforms do not.
Available interviews with some of the top earners give you a more humane feel to the possibility of being very successful online.
If you do join Bring the Fresh, I strongly recommend you stay away from the very expensive upsells.
That being said, here is a comparison of Bring the Fresh and my number one recommended program, Wealthy Affiliate:

Hi Medu, I really enjoyed your review of Bring The Fresh. It all sounded very good until you started explaining the pricing of the products or programs. This is just an old school program that has been revised with the roughness removed. Kelly Felix is also The Rich Jerk, and that program was horrible. Thanks again for a wonderful review!
With Kind Regards,
Linda
Medu says
Hey Linda,
I have not done any research on the Rich Jerk, but it seems like Kelly Felix still maintains a good reputation in the Internet marketing industry. About his Bring the Fresh program though, it provides some good value in terms of training. But the upsells are borderline criminal. So for anyone that is sure they won’t be tempted by some of those ridiculous offers like private mentoring etc, they might actually get some value out of Bring the Fresh.
Matt Hall says
I like your site. Very easy to navigate with the eye. The review was informative and appeared very nicely for a quick read. I learned a few things as this was a company I have considered.
Medu says
Thanks Matt! I hope this review has prepared you for what to expect, and will help you make an informed decision.
Janice Nichol says
Very interesting. You had me asking myself at first why don’t I do that for the price. But with your comparison with WA, I realize WA is still the best company to be affiliated with for learning how we build our own website. Kyle is very a very thorough teacher and I learn a ton with each lesson I take. I know I have a lot more knowledge to squeeze into this old brain of mine, but I’ll take it as it comes. You are a very good writer and give us very pertinent information. Thanks. Please check out my latest blog and let me know what you think. I am totally new to all of this and I really need input. Thanks again.
Medu says
Absolutely Janice! I will definitely check out your website, and privately get back to you with feedback. Since you are a member of WA, I think we should even connect.
Pete says
Nice review of Bring The Fresh. I’ve never heard about the program, and I don’t think there’s any need to check it out either. I know that a major downside for me about this program would be the fact that they don’t offer any kind of free trial. It’s like a car. Before I make a major commitment like plopping down a bunch of cash for a lifetime membership, I want to know what kind of value i’ll be getting. Thanks for the great review!
Medu says
Hey Pete,
Here on this website, I continue to state again and again that if the platform is very much in a hurry to collect your money before you get to confirm the quality of the service, don’t go for it. Bring the fresh is great in terms of quality material, poor in terms of full disclosure.
Alberto says
I liked your honest review “Bring the Fresh” platform and at the same time it makes me sad to continue deceiving people who really want to work and earn a living through the internet.
If the great experts know exactly what works, by allowing such practices in the network. And hopefully, one day can regulate this.
Congratulations on your blog!
Medu says
Thank You Alberto! I’m not quite sure what the law can do to stop upsells. The moral solution to it would be for everyone to be ethical. But unfortunately, the world is not an ideal place.
Matt says
Man, based on what I just read I think 70/100 is pretty generous. The $7 trial isn’t terribly bad but its not great either…I feel like they tried to find a perfect number where people would pay to try it but not so cheap that they won’t make any money off you. Really sounds like that is all they care about. Try to dangle that carrot in front of you with the cheap lifetime membership then throw you all the upsells which you NEED. Really, I would rate this a 30/100. 40/100 at MOST. Just because you do get training at least but what they are doing is pretty messed up. They clearly don’t have your general well being in mind.
Medu says
You will make a very harsh judge Matt! They get a 70% because the training they offer is top notch. Other platforms offer worse training, and still offer a lot of upsells. So comparatively, it think 70 is fair.
Brandon says
Wow, I’m super glad I just come across your review about BTF. I got an email from a so-called ‘guru’ trying to sell me this garbage. Thank God I stumbled across your blog.
I have already signed up to Wealthy Affiliate and can back this product up 100% – completely legit and a great business opportunity for someone to put the work in to make bank online.
Thanks for this!
Medu says
You are welcome Brandon! While I will go as far as calling Bring the Fresh garbage, there is a whole lot they don’t mention when trying to get you to sign up. For me, companies that do that lose all credibility.
