Philip Borrowman is by far the most dedicated marketing teacher I’ve come across online. The value he delivers is incredible, and I’d recommend his courses to anyone wanting to build a blog, website, or YouTube channel. What I really respect is that he doesn’t sugarcoat things or make false promises – he tells you the truth and what you actually need to hear.

If you’re looking for an honest and trustworthy place to finally learn and earn, Taking Action Online is the place to go.

I have known Philip for about 7 years now. In his training, he is always thorough, sometimes to much so. But he wants to ensure that everyone, including the technically challenged, be able to succeed online. He is honest and will tell you there are no silver bullets to making money online, no short cuts, you absolutely have to do the work. And that is what I like about his program, Taking Action Online.

Can't fault it so far.

If you're tired of spending money on gurus thinking 1million is just 5 mins work, only to find, it made someone else a million by selling you a fake dream, then this is for you.
If you are also tired of starting something and then going "what now?" Think clickbank ads for something you dont even believe in, amazon fba blogs that took an age to create that dont turn into sales, Telegram groups that promise profits and end in loss.
All that hard work and time on your part for nothing then again this is for you.

Why? - Its a plan of action and a blueprint. Do this, NEXT, do this now, NEXT, dont waste time on that NEXT, some moneys coming in, do this NEXT, NEXT, NEXT...
If that appeals to you then give it a shot as a few weeks down the line your efforts all add up and you are learning without realising as you go.

Money earned? I wont mislead, I cant confirm this yet as im still new (I will revise the review in 6 months) but the potential looks legitimate and confirmed by others who do this type of work that it can create some great income once you start the snowball rolling...

The reason I rate TAO a 4 star review…

The reason I rate TAO a 4 star review is:

Because everything could always improve and giving a 5 star review means the business or idea its perfect and perfect is a static Idea that leaves no room for improvement.

by saying that, TAO is my first and I think only marketing academy that I will need, Phillip looks and sounds like a person who is passionate and dedicated about helping other people construct their dreams or achieve financial freedom through building online business ( at least that is my experience), and TAO reflects those very core attributes.
TAO/Phillip gives you a well rounded perspective to building a business, all the goods and all the hurdles that a person will find through out the way, in addition to how flexible is the training to people that have different circumstances in their life and time management.

5 Stars all the way!!

I recently completed Philip Borrowman's online course takingaction.online and I couldn't be more impressed! The course is well-structured and packed with practical insights. Philip's teaching style is warm, authentic and motivating, making the whole learning experience enjoyable and inspiring. If you're looking for an affordable and genuine online course, then Taking Action Online is without a doubt, by far the best one out there. Highly recommended!

Above the Gold Standard

Was thinking before i wrote this review, what i was going to say. There was so many good things about Taking Action Online. I will cut it down to make it brief as possible.

If you have been looking for actionable resource, with a step by step plan for someone who is a beginner, all the way to the more experienced level. With a coaching option, support and a fantastic group of like minded people there to give you encouragement, and help. Then you couldn't pick a better option.

Taking Action Online is run by Philip Borrowman, and he is someone who has walked the walk, and talks the talk. He is also excellent at explaining sometimes complex topics, and breaking them down to make it so much easier to understand.

I only started a few weeks ago myself, but have been hugely impressed and encouraged, and fully believe my goals will be achieved many times faster thanks to this resource.

So if you are on the fence or are unsure. Don't be, give this a try and you won't regret it.

TAO is legit

TAO is legit

I've tried many different IM products in the past and have never seen anything as comprehensive as what is found in this program. The author is constantly looking for ways to make the training better and help the students succeed and I greatly appreciate that.

The customer support is very quick.
There are many guides and walkthroughs so it's packed with value.
I've watched TAO get upgraded over the years.

Would highly recommend it.

Philip is a "down-to-earth guy" who sees you for what you are, an uninformed beginner who has great potential to succeed in online business study and practices.

Even if you have had some experience in the online world, I can assure you that you have been sidetracked from your mission of creating a successful business.

He tells you he has been on the same journey dealing with similar issues. He is only 11 years ahead of you and you can gain experience and success with TAO, as long as you don't quit.

He explains everything step by step and you have him standing by to answer your questions. He responds within 24 hours when you submit a ticket.

He is dedicated to his work and students. I don't know how he has time for it all. He has never failed to get back to me with answers, even sending a video when necessary.

Do yourself a favor and sign up for TAO (Taking Action Online). If you are serious about building an online business and are willing to do the work (there is no magic bullet to success), he will show you the way and hold your hand along the path to success.

Sadly, I do not have anyone called Olivia Stern as a customer or on my email list. I fear this is a fake review. Sad times. :-( Had this been a genuine review, there would be more details.

The best online marketing course for anyone

I have been trying to get into blogging and YouTube for years. I always get pulled off and distracted and it gets frustrating, especially when I had no like minded people to support me. Philip's courses and tutoring has revived my enthusiasm and I am learning things I thought I already knew. Out of any course I have ever taken in this field, Philip by far has been the best. Down to earth, no fluff, just straight to the point and positive. I am happy I found TAO, it has made great improvements in my online marketing journey.

Brilliant, straightforward, honest advice and guidance

I've followed Philip since he first started online and and I've benefited from his training.

I love his straightforward, honest, at times blunt, advice and guidance. It's exactly what I needed and I feel it's what many of us need when we start our online ventures.

I also appreciate the fact that he is accessible and very responsive as he takes his responsibilities to his customers very seriously.

Looking forward to more good things from him as we share his experiences overseas!

Telling the truth makes my life much easier and gives me happy customers. Not everyone is ready for the harsh truth awaiting solopreneurs, and I am glad you are enjoying the training.

Keep pushing forward, and you can start building traffic, leads and sales for your new business!
