Official Refund Policy/Action-Based Guarantee

This is a digital training program and you have access to all materials immediately upon purchasing (whether choosing the pay-in-full option or the monthly installments). For that reason, refunds and payment cancellations are not valid for any reason other than the "action-based guarantee" detailed below.

Double-Your-Money Guarantee Details

Eligibility

You are eligible for the "double-your-money," action-based guarantee, if you follow the following details in full:

  • You must email support@punchybooks.co at least 6 months after you initially purchased the Punchy Books Accelerator -- but no longer than 7 months after. Redemption of the guarantee is only available for this one-month period.
    • If you reach out before that timeframe, we are of course happy to support you by answering questions, but you are not yet eligible for the guarantee.
    • If you reach out after that timeframe, you are no longer eligible for the guarantee -- as it has expired.

Deliverables

  • In your email, you must provide evidence that you have completed all of the following deliverables. This step is very important -- we cannot verify your participation or create you a tailored action plan unless we receive all of these materials.
    • The deliverables are as follows (all of them must be completed with original material created by you, and sent to support@punchybooks.co). All of the steps you need to complete these deliverables are explained in the course.
      • The "Goal-Setting Worksheet" (a worksheet to help you clarify your goals and overcome fears)
      • The "Brainstorming Worksheet" (a worksheet to help you ideate)
      • The "Book Compass Worksheet" (a document to help clarify your idea)
      • A link to your published "Bookbait" (a short piece of writing to test your book idea -- which must be published on social media or a public website)
      • Your Book Outline (which can be based on one of our provided templates)
      • A link to your published book on Amazon

Free Coaching and Refund

  • If that does not happen, you will receive free 1-on-1 coaching for 30 days. If you still have not doubled your money after 6 months have passed after purchasing, and following the 30 days of free 1-on-1 coaching, you will then receive a full refund and be paid an additional $1,000.

Procedure

To take advantage of the guarantee, follow the following procedure:

  • If you haven't doubled your money after six months from the date that you purchased the program, please email support@punchybooks.co with proof that you have completed all of the deliverables and not yet doubled your investment. Shortly thereafter, Matt will contact you to arrange details of your free 30 days of 1-on-1 coaching.
  • Once six months have passed from your Accelerator purchase date, you have 30 days to email all of the deliverables to support@punchybooks.co. If you do not follow the instructions fully or send your materials after 30 days, you forfeit your eligibility for the free 30 days of coaching and the money-back guarantee.
  • If after receiving your free 30 days of 1-on-1 coaching from Matt and/or his team (and acting on his advice and support in good faith) you still haven't doubled your money (2x the cost of the program in revenue -- through your book sales and/or related business offers), Platypus Publishing will refund 100% of your money AND pay you $1,000 on top, out of their pocket.

Refund Policy

As explained in the OFFICIAL REFUND POLICY/ACTION-BASED GUARANTEE section, refunds are not offered for any other reason, and payment plans cannot be canceled for any reason whatsoever.

  • No refunds are allowed for people who have not completed all of the deliverables (or have not provided proof of doing so), nor for anyone before the 6-month mark after purchasing for any reason whatsoever.
  • Refunds and the free 30 days of coaching are also not available for anyone who has not sent all deliverables to support@punchybooks.co during the 30-day period of eligibility (starting 6 months after purchasing the Accelerator).

Accountability and Support

This policy exists to hold you accountable for writing your book, and to guarantee results if you try your best and put in the work. The program is here to support you, all the way, and we will work through obstacles together (if you ask for help with the unlimited email support).
