ScamTelegraph reports that Brent Payne's latest venture, Avant, launched with products and compensation plans bearing striking resemblances to his previous company, Liberty League International. This similarity immediately raises questions about whether Avant will encounter the same regulatory scrutiny that impacted its predecessor, particularly given the historical issues associated with such business models.
Avant's pre-launch revealed its product offerings and two distinct compensation plans: a standard model and a temporary pre-launch bonus structure. An initial review suggests a strong continuity with Payne's earlier business, Liberty League International, evident in both the product design and the proposed compensation framework. This connection prompts an examination into whether Avant could face similar regulatory challenges that previously affected Liberty League International.
The product line of Avant closely mirrors that of Liberty League International. Liberty League originally featured three primary offerings: a personal development course titled 'Beyond Freedom,' a three-day 'Liberty' conference, and a five-day 'Summit' conference. Avant appears to replicate this structure, though its premium conference is four days rather than five.
Avant's introductory product, 'Elevate,' is presented as a personal development course delivered via DVD, accompanied by a journal and notebook. Touted as being "backed by the latest discoveries made by scientists and doctors," the company has not publicly disclosed the specifics of these discoveries or the identities of the involved experts. 'Elevate' spans 72 days, slightly shorter than Liberty League's 90-day 'Beyond Freedom,' but shares the same core premise of a self-paced, at-home program. A key distinction is Avant's 72-day money-back guarantee for 'Elevate,' though it remains unclear whether the associate who facilitated the sale or Avant itself bears the cost of any refunds, a point of ambiguity given Liberty League International's past practices.
The 'Transform' offering from Avant is comparable to Liberty League's three-day 'Liberty' conference. A notable difference in Avant's 'Transform' is the inclusion of accommodation in the ticket price, a feature that Liberty League initially offered but later removed, shifting the conference cost to cover attendance only. The speaker lineup for 'Transform' suggests a single external guest, alongside opportunities for networking with other community members.
Avant's top-tier offering, 'Transcend,' serves as the equivalent of Liberty League's 'Summit' conference, albeit one day shorter. Described as the ultimate personal development experience, 'Transcend' promised "inspiring presentations with ground-breaking participation in scientific studies, physical challenges and break-out study groups."
The compensation plans further highlight the parallels between the two companies. Avant's pre-launch introduced both a regular compensation plan and a temporary bonus plan, a dual-structure approach reminiscent of Liberty League International's model. This consistent design across product offerings and remuneration structures indicates a deliberate continuation of Payne's established business methodology.
