Thumbs up Review of Mort Fertel's Marriage Fitness Program

I just wanted to let you guys know about this thing. Mort Fertel has been advertising his Marriage Fitness programs on my websites for a long time. Some might say I'm bias because of that, but I have a ton of people who advertise on my sites so if I were to lose one or gain one it would really be no big deal.

Anyway, his Marriage Fitness program has been around a long time, and my wife and I have a good relationship so I never thought to sign up for the free newsletter or buy any of his products. Well, the other day I went to his website, took his free marriage assessment, and signed up for the free newsletter.

The assessment was great. Pretty accurate, and as I suspected, my wife and I had a good relationship (according to the assessment). But even while taking the assessment I realized some things it asked about that I could do more of that would probably improve our relationship. Very good

Then I started getting his newsletters in my inbox, and I was surprised at the helpful stuff he had in them. My wife and I don't have the kind of problems that most people who sign up for these things are having, but there are tips that will improve all relationships, not just those teetering on the verge of collapse. Best of all, it's free.

So I give it the "thumbs up."

Here's Mort's website if you want to check out his program:

Marriage Max .com

Let me know what you guys think about it as well.

I concur... my marriage is on the verge of divorce, and he has some very well thought out arguements not only for buying his product... but just for relationships in general. You don't even have to be in trouble and he is giving good advice.

Not sure if this thread is supposed to be added to, but I have received Mort's program and I have finished reading his book. I have to say that it speaks to my soul. I believe that everything he says is true. I don't know if this arrived in time to save my marriage, but I truly, truly believe that if you follow his guidelines, and you are with someone who believes in the same or is willing to try them, then you can build something truly incredible with your partner.

To tell you the truth I really don't think I need help, but often I look for ways to improve things here and there and pick up magazines, books, e-mail, websites, forums etc that can be used to improve or strengthen my relationship with my wife so I will be looking into it and getting the news letter just because it might help.

It also stands to reason for other sdvertizers that after years it might be their turn to get a review. All the more reason to stick with you.

I'm on chapter 4 and I have to say, I recommend this. I bought the DVD set the Marriage Fitness Program. It makes a lot of sense and has helped me to see things through a different perspective and some ways to improve things.

I finished the CDs and I found a lot of very helpful advice. My husband started listening, he got about half through (hoping he will finish)... anyway we are implementing some of these ideas. One huge one for us is that "business" type things should just be handled once a week....i.e. discussing bills & finances and other business like things necessary in a marriage. We also run a business. One thing that we discovered is that when we first were married my husband did not want to deal with anything related to finances. I handled all of it. Somewhere maybe even 10 years ago he no longer wanted to be in the dark but he wouldn't say anything. It gave him stress to not know and I was stressed being the one person who had to handle all these things. Neither of us talked about it. He finally said something, I was really surprised. Anyway, I'm happy to share those responsibilities with him but bringing him up to speed will take awhile (as I also handle the books in our business as well). We're going to start this week with the "business meetigs" in which for an hour or maybe 90 minutes we'll start going over these things and handline more financial decisions together. We always handled major purchase decisions together but things like how much should we pay on a credit card etc. was always up to me. Anyway that was just one thing but we got several out of it. It was worth the money we spent.

i'm about to purchase mort fertel's program/book. (i might as well, i've bought every other resource out there!) anyone have an opinion on lee baucom? or dr phil's workbook. i'd love to hear a success story from someone here. were you on the bring of collapse? did ya save it? which program did you use? how? note: i'm at the point where i think it's all common sense, but i'd love to know there's some "technique" out there that improves the odds.
