My experience with Affinity Sales Training was not good.
I was asked to take part in a video call. During the call, I was asked a number of highly personal and emotionally charged questions. I felt that they were designed to make me feel guilty about my current circumstances and create urgency to buy their course.
It seemed like I was on an introductory or informational call, only for the €3,000 course price to be revealed at the end of the interview. When I explained that I could not afford €3,000, I was then told that I could just start by paying €75.
I am skeptical of the credibility of some of the online reviews associated with the company, particularly where the reviews appear weirdly positive and promotional.
More broadly, the business model and recruitment approach gave me strong pyramid-scheme-like impressions. I would strongly recommend to anybody who is considering paying thousands of hard earned euros for this type of training to research the underlying business model and verify its claims. There is also a substantial amount of free sales and business content already available on YouTube and elsewhere.
I would strongly advise you to your own research, ask for the full price before agreeing to an interview, and don't allow a high pressure sales call with pushy recruiters to make a €3,000 decision for you.
AST events
Only made it to one day of the Galway event, however must say it was great, met some awesome people, had a super time and learnt a lot from the speakers. Been to a lot of the events including ski trip, Dublin mastermind and more, always a good time
Top 3 Weekends OAT
Went to the affinity Galway event at the races, was the best craic ever. Being able to have fun and enjoy the day with lads who are like-minded was a really great experience. Would def reccomend it to anyone looking to meet like-minded entrepreneurs🙌

The Galway event was 10/10 the people u meet there are incredible so much knowledge and experience was amazing meeting so many like minded people
Where do I start
WOAH, where do I even start, joining AST I did not imagine I’d be going to an event with such incredible, like minded people, I was at the Galway event and was an experience and a half, networking and getting to know people who I’ve only seen in the other end of the screen. If you think it’s a scam, I genuinely feel sorry as joining affinity was the best decision I’ve made in my life since I joined back in January this year. I’ve not only leaned a high income skill, but also made friendships and potential business partners for life. If your on the fence, just take the leap.
Galway Roadshow
I had an amazing experience at the roadshow event with Affinity Institute in Galway. It was great to go and meet likeminded people and I learned so much from the speakers themselves. I would highly recommend for anyone thinking about it to go and attend their future events.

Had a brilliant weekend at the Galway Races with the AST Affinity Institute. It was a fantastic event with a great atmosphere, and the networking was one of the biggest highlights. Met some genuinely ambitious people, made great connections, and had an all-round great experience. Looking forward to the next one!

Attended the Galway mastermind and had a great time. The talks on AI were very insightful and gave me a lot of new information to take away. Great opportunity to network and get to know people from all different paths. However a lot of the event was focused on mindset and visualisation which is helpful but I would have liked more sales education and tips learned through years of experience. Other than that the event was great and will definitely be at another. Great energy and community!
Had an amazing day at the Affinity…
Had an amazing day at the Affinity institute mastermind in Galway on Friday. My 3rd time at one of their masterminds this year and honestly I was so impressed. Every single time I come out having learnt so much and feeling so inspired. Great event for any entrepreneurs in Ireland, whether it’s to get mindset advice or practical advice to grow your business. Really enjoyed it and loved all the speakers, especially the ones who done their first ever public speech, so inspiring! can’t wait for the next event and seeing everyone in Donegal 🙌
The best sales community in Europe
The best sales community in Europe, made some brothers for life and has given me access to mentors and information I couldn’t of had access to hadn’t I joined Affinity. Would recommend
Great community

Joining AST last week has definitely been the right move! I had many mixed feelings about this course, but I gave it a chance. The coaches are very welcoming, supportive and and provide plenty of content to help you learn. The community is exactly the same, everyone is there to help each-other and push each-other on to get to where you want to be. If you are looking to invest in yourself, give yourself some freedom and build new relationships with people then AST is highly recommended!

I’ve joined ast 3 months ago
I’ve joined ast 3 months ago, it changed my life, I didn’t just learn about sales, I’ve been learning about mentality, how to live without these bad thinkings surrounding your head. Basically AST is more than just learn sales. My experience is amazing.
Great programme
Great programme. Changed my life in more ways than I can count. Allowed me to quit my 9-5 and have location freedom. Have met so many amazing people through it and have no regrets. Would highly recommend !
