Answer: We have not done scientific testing of the results and the improvements in students. We're not even sure how that would be possible. We do, however, have folders full of anecdotal feedback from students and parents about how the program has improved the child's sense of self worth and confidence. We have received twice as much oral feedback as we have written feedback; so we are 100% happy that it works. Schools would not ask us back if they were not happy with the results.
Answer: The guarantee is a simple 'No questions asked, 100% money back guarantee'. If you have used the product in the way it was intended and you are not happy that it has helped to improve the self esteem of students, then all you have to do is post the package back to us and we will refund your money PLUS your cost of postage. We are more than happy to stand behind our product.
We are focused on creating a better future and a more sustainable world. To do that requires us to practice the ethics we preach ... so if you have any problems at all with any of our staff, or you believe you have not received your money back in a timely manner, please contact our Director, Petris Lapis, directly on petris@extollo.com and she will personally resolve the problem for you.
Answer: The 'How To Be Your Own HERO' package has been written for upper primary school students (those aged from 9 to 12). You could use the package with children as young as 8, but may need to simplify some of the concepts. An equivalent product for teenagers will be launched in the near future.
Answer: The 'How To Be Your Own HERO' was formerly known as a different name. The program under its current and former name has been run in both primary schools and as weekend seminars by our trainers. Teachers have watched us in action during the school sessions and parents have watched us in action during the weekend seminars. Written feedback from parents and some of the teachers has been provided in the marketing brochure and on the website.
