Stephanie Obi is real, checkable and accomplished: a named educator with a published book, a live checkout, and eleven named students on her own success-stories page whose businesses you can go and look at. That is not the profile of a fake. The problem is the product this page is filed under. Walking her own page-sitemap.xml on 2026-08-13 — all 55 URLs, plus the homepage nav and footer — turned up no page called "Automated Course Sales Blueprint". What exists is /minicoursepage/, a free mini course whose call to action reads "Apply for Automated Course Sales" and whose application link, stephobi.com/apply/, was itself returning HTTP 404 that day; an unlinked /oldapply/, titled "Automated Course Sales Application Page", still live and booking complimentary strategy calls; and /workwithme/, still indexed by Google under the title "Work With Me - Stephanie Obi | Automated Course Sales Expert", also 404. So a reader who searched this name arrives at a funnel entrance, not an offer. Behind the application sits The Room, whose own terms page prints "$3,000 or $300 per month" for twelve months alongside an inclusion list — Done in a Week portal access, Automation Maps, monthly sales systems, templates, Q&A calls, a peer community — but no syllabus. She is not secretive by habit: her KING Mastermind page publishes a three-phase outline and a full tier table at $3,500, $10,000 and $30,000, pay-in-full bonuses included. It is this offer that publishes neither. And the refund term is unusually hard: the site policy says all sales are final, no refund will be issued, "and you will still be financially responsible for the entire product fee". The teaching may well be good; the named students suggest it often is. The buying position is the problem.
Last checked · Evidence is labeled by source type and freshness.
The evidence supports a real, active educator with a published book, live checkouts, named students and plainly published legal terms — not a scam. It does not support buying anything under this specific name. No price, syllabus or working purchase path exists for it, and the offer behind the application is four figures with no refund.
Quick verdict
"Automated Course Sales Blueprint" is a name with no product page behind it. Checked 2026-08-13 against Stephanie Obi's own 55-URL page-sitemap.xml, her homepage nav and her footer, nothing is sold under it; the live automated-course-sales offer is a free mini course at stephobi.com/minicoursepage/ that funnels into an application, the application link it advertises was returning HTTP 404, and an unlinked page at /oldapply/ titled "Automated Course Sales Application Page" was still booking strategy calls. No price is published for this offer, though the same seller publishes full tier tables elsewhere — $3,500 / $10,000 / $30,000 on /kingmmoffer/. The published price for The Room, the program carrying this material, is "$3,000 or $300 per month" for twelve months, governed by a site-wide policy stating that all sales are final and no refund will be issued. Stephanie Obi herself is a well-established Nigerian course strategist with a published book, a live $20.00 ebook checkout and eleven named students on her success-stories page.
Rating methodology
Availability, the refund wording, The Room's fee, the ebook price and the creator's own claims were all read directly from the seller's live pages on 2026-08-13, and the sitemap walk that establishes the name's absence is reproducible in a minute. What is genuinely unknown is what an applicant is quoted after the form and what is actually taught inside — neither is published anywhere this research could reach. Searches on 2026-08-13 for independent buyer accounts under this course name returned nothing on-topic, so how the program performs for a typical student rests entirely on seller-hosted testimonials.
Weighted total: 2.935, rounded to one decimal as 2.9/5. Read the rating methodology.
Course record
A funnel rather than a catalogued course. The public entry point is stephobi.com/minicoursepage/, a free mini course headed "How to Sell Your Online Course Every Week Without Big Live Launches, Posting 3x a Day or Having a Big Audience", labelled "Mini course for coaches, course creators and experts", whose call to action is "Apply for Automated Course Sales". The application it points to returned HTTP 404 on 2026-08-13. The seller's paid program that carries this material is The Room, and its terms page states the fee as "$3,000 or $300 per month" and itemises what a member receives: twelve months of access to the Done in a Week course portal, "Done in an Hour", "What to Post on Instagram Everyday", a "Sales Breakdown: How I got 100 Course Buyers in 73 Days", new sales systems every month, monthly sales challenges, Automation Maps, a pricing workshop, templates, swipe files and guides, monthly Q&A calls, and twelve months in a peer-led private community.

Source: acsb-about, acsb-success, acsb-selarWhat the seller itemises
Nothing labelled "Automated Course Sales Blueprint" publishes modules, lessons or a runtime; the sitemap walk on 2026-08-13 found no such page at all. What follows is quoted from the terms page of The Room, the seller's twelve-month program that carries the automation material, and is shown because it is the most specific deliverable list attached to this offer. It is an asset list, not a teaching order, and it belongs to The Room — do not read it as the contents of a product under this report's name. Elsewhere in the same inventory the seller does publish teaching orders for other products: a three-phase programme outline on /kingmmoffer/ and a session-by-session list on /kitng/.
Fit
Readers who met this name in a search result or an old recommendation and want to know what, if anything, it corresponds to today.
Course creators and coaches weighing Stephanie Obi's application-gated coaching, who need the fee and the refund term before the call rather than after it.
Anyone wanting a cheap way to sample the same subject matter first — the seller's own ebook and starter pack cover much of it.
Stephanie Obi is a named, active educator with a published book and a live, working checkout at $20.00.
Eleven testimonials on her success-stories page carry full names and identifiable businesses, several with specific detail rather than vague praise.
The Room's fee is published in plain text on its own terms page — "$3,000 or $300 per month" — rather than being hidden entirely.
The Room's terms itemise exactly what a member receives, down to named assets like "Automation Maps" and the Done in a Week portal.
The refund policy, however adverse, is footer-linked and stated plainly rather than buried after purchase.
A genuinely cheap on-ramp exists on the same site: a free starter pack and a $20.00 ebook covering the same subject matter.
No page on the seller's site carries the name "Automated Course Sales Blueprint" — established by walking all 55 URLs of page-sitemap.xml plus the homepage nav and footer on 2026-08-13.
The live "Automated Course Sales" page publishes no price anywhere in its rendered text, read on 2026-08-13, and the /oldapply/ application page books a call without quoting one.
The offer link the funnel advertises, stephobi.com/apply/, returned HTTP 404 on 2026-08-13 — the advertised next step was broken, while the live application page it should have pointed at is unlinked.
"All sales are final" with a strict no-refund policy, and the buyer "will still be financially responsible for the entire product fee" after cancelling.
No syllabus, module list or runtime is published for the program behind this application — only The Room's asset list. The seller does publish outlines for other offers (/kingmmoffer/, /kitng/), which makes the gap here a choice rather than a house style.
Pages still indexed under this offer's own branding, including /workwithme/ ("Automated Course Sales Expert"), /doneinaweek/ and /dailysalescourse/, all returned HTTP 404 on 2026-08-13.
Every outcome figure available is seller-hosted and undated; searches on 2026-08-13 surfaced no independent buyer account under this course name.
Risk review
The seller operates openly under her own name, with an about page, a book, and a Selar storefront that transacts.
Legal pages — refund policy, terms, disclaimer, privacy and cookies — are all footer-linked and all resolve.
The Room's terms page publishes both the fee and the full inclusion list on one public URL.
Testimonials are attributed to named people whose own businesses are findable, not to initials or first names.
The refund term is stated identically in two places (the site policy and The Room's terms), which is consistent rather than contradictory.
A reader searching this exact course name lands on a funnel entrance, not a product — and on 2026-08-13 the funnel's own application link was 404.
The gap between marketing reach and working pages: several pages that search engines still index under this offer's branding return 404.
A four-figure commitment is asked for before the buyer sees any syllabus.
The no-refund clause explicitly keeps a cancelling buyer liable for the entire fee.
The most-repeated credentials — awards, Forbes and Guardian features, "21 years" — are self-published on the about page and were not independently confirmed here.
The seller's own testimonials attach to Course Launched Delivered and Done in a Week, so they are evidence about her coaching generally, not about any product under this name.
Terms
Every tier, discount and plan the seller publishes, in one place. The analysis underneath is ours.
Checked on
| Tier | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| The Room — pay in full | $3,000 | 12 months; a different program of the same seller, not this name |
| The Room — monthly | $300 per month | Stated on the same terms page as the alternative to paying in full |
| KING Mastermind — Foundation | $3,500 | Different product: pay in full on /kingmmoffer/, or 12 × $500 monthly |
| KING Mastermind — Growth | $10,000 | Different product: pay in full on /kingmmoffer/, or 12 × $1,000 monthly |
| KING Mastermind — Boardroom | $30,000 | Different product: pay in full on /kingmmoffer/, or 12 × $3,000 monthly |
| KING Live event ticket | N350,000 | Different product: early-bird in-person ticket against N500,000; VIP N1,000,000 |
| Knowledge is the New Gold ebook | $20.00 | Live Selar checkout, listed against $39; a different and far cheaper product |
There is no price under this name because there is no offer under this name — not because a number could not be found. The seller's own inventory was enumerated on 2026-08-13 (robots.txt → sitemap_index.xml → page-sitemap.xml, 55 URLs, plus every homepage nav and footer anchor) and none of it is titled "Automated Course Sales Blueprint". The live page that uses the phrase, /minicoursepage/, carries no figure in its rendered text, and its single call to action points at stephobi.com/apply/, which answered HTTP 404; the seller's older "Automated Course Sales Application Page" at /oldapply/ is live but books a strategy call rather than quoting a fee. That opacity is specific to this offer, and the reader should see how much the same seller does publish elsewhere. Her Knowledge is the New Gold Mastermind page, /kingmmoffer/, prints a full public tier table: Foundation Circle at $3,500 paid in full or 12 × $500 monthly, Growth Circle at $10,000 or 12 × $1,000, The Boardroom at $30,000 or 12 × $3,000, each with a named pay-in-full bonus and Foundation's stated as a "$2,500 Saving". Her /kitng/ event page published in-person tickets at N350,000 against N500,000 and VIP at N1,000,000 against N1,500,000, labelled "These are the Early Bird Prices", for a date that has now passed. The Room states "$3,000 or $300 per month" on its own terms page, so its monthly route totals $3,600 over twelve months, $600 more than paying once. And the Knowledge is the New Gold ebook has an open Selar checkout at $20.00 against a struck-through $39. Every one of those is a different product's price; neither is the price of anything reviewed here, and they must not be blended into one figure. The practical consequence for a buyer is that the only way to learn what this offer costs is to complete an application and take a call — and on the day this was checked, the application link the funnel advertises did not load.
This research found no archived price for a product named "Automated Course Sales Blueprint"; the only prices attached to the seller's offers in the record checked on 2026-08-13 are The Room's "$3,000 or $300 per month" and the $20.00 Selar ebook listing, both current rather than historical.
Availability, price and refund terms all re-checked on 2026-08-13 by requesting the seller's sitemap, offer pages, terms pages and live Selar checkout.

“To date, Over 3,000 students have paid for my course and it's still selling.”
Quoted verbatim, including its capitalisation, from the seller's own success-stories page as read on 2026-08-13, where it is attributed to "Tobi Otokiti - Creator, Transition to Product Management". Seller-selected and seller-hosted; the student count is undated and was not independently audited here.
View source ↗“Stephanie gave me step by step clarity and even validation. Today, 53 people have signed up to my courses.”
Quoted verbatim from the same seller page, from the block headed "Launched my course after two years" and attributed beneath it to "Kemi Lewis, Founder KLS Naturals". The same block continues that the signups are "spread over Nigeria, US, UK, France, Israel, South Africa, Canada, Australia". On that page each name is printed after the story it belongs to, which is easy to misread; this attribution was re-checked against the raw HTML on 2026-08-13. Seller-selected, undated and unaudited.

Quoted verbatim from the same seller page, where it appears as a bullet in the block headed "This is the first most profitable investment I have ever made in my life", attributed beneath it to "Ibironke Yekinni - Switch to Software Testing". That block names the program as "Course Launched Delivered", not any product under this report's name. Attribution re-checked against the raw HTML on 2026-08-13. Seller-selected and unaudited.

What an applicant is quoted after completing the "Apply for Automated Course Sales" form — no figure appears on any page walked on 2026-08-13.
What is actually taught inside the program sold behind the "Apply for Automated Course Sales" call to action: no modules, lessons or runtime are attached to that offer anywhere in the seller's 55-URL inventory walked on 2026-08-13. Teaching outlines do exist there for other offers — the three-phase programme on /kingmmoffer/ and the session list on /kitng/ — but neither is published as this one's contents.
Whether "Automated Course Sales Blueprint" was ever a formal product name or only ever descriptive positioning, as in the still-indexed page title "Automated Course Sales Expert".
How many people have bought the coaching; the seller publishes named testimonials but no enrollment figure.
Whether the seller-published outcome figures ($30k in 30 days, $11,200, $10,000 first launch) are accurate — none carries a date or independent audit.

Questions
Not under that name. On 2026-08-13 this research walked all 55 URLs in stephobi.com/page-sitemap.xml plus every homepage nav and footer anchor, and none is titled "Automated Course Sales Blueprint". The nearest live pages are stephobi.com/minicoursepage/, a free mini course whose call to action reads "Apply for Automated Course Sales" — its application link, stephobi.com/apply/, returned HTTP 404 the same day — and stephobi.com/oldapply/, titled "Automated Course Sales Application Page", which is live, unlinked from the funnel, and books a complimentary strategy call rather than selling anything directly.
No price is published for an offer under this name; the live funnel page carries no figure in its rendered text, and the /oldapply/ application page books a call without quoting one. The same seller does publish prices for other products: The Room at "$3,000 or $300 per month" for twelve months on its terms page, the KING Mastermind at $3,500 / $10,000 / $30,000 paid in full (or 12 × $500 / $1,000 / $3,000) on /kingmmoffer/, event tickets at N350,000–N1,500,000 on /kitng/, and the Knowledge is the New Gold ebook at $20.00 on Selar. Those are other products' prices, not this one's.
Yes, and it is strict. stephobi.com/refund-policy/ states: "Due to the nature of the services provided, all sales are final and Company maintains a strict NO REFUND policy." It continues that if you cancel your enrolment, "no refund will be issued, and you will still be financially responsible for the entire product fee." The Room's terms repeat it as a "strict NO REFUND policy and a NO EXCHANGE policy".
A Nigerian online-course strategist, author of Knowledge is the New Gold, and the operator of stephobi.com. Her about page states she has been "a creative entrepreneur for 21 years", that her first course trained "over 500 people", and lists the 2021 Beta Gamma Sigma Entrepreneurial Achievement Award along with features in Forbes, Guardian Woman, Arise TV and others. Those are her own published claims; this research verified where they are made rather than independently confirming them.
Searches run on 2026-08-13 for the exact course name, for the name plus "review", and for the seller's name alongside "review", "reddit" and "trustpilot" returned her own site and social profiles rather than any independent buyer account of a product under this name. Her Selar storefront shows "(0 Ratings)". Treat the outcome figures you see as seller-published until something independent turns up.
The most specific list the seller publishes is on The Room's terms page: twelve months of access to the Done in a Week course portal, "Done in an Hour", "What to Post on Instagram Everyday", a "Sales Breakdown: How I got 100 Course Buyers in 73 Days", new sales systems every month, monthly sales challenges, Automation Maps, a pricing workshop, templates, swipe files and guides, monthly Q&A calls, and twelve months in a peer-led private community. That is an asset list for The Room, not a syllabus for anything under this report's name.
Source registry
acsb-selarSupports: The Stephanie Obi product with a live self-serve checkout at a listed price on 2026-08-13 — her coaching offers publish prices too (/kingmmoffer/, /theroomtc/) but gate purchase behind an application. The Selar storefront shows "$20.00" struck through against "$39", a "Buy now" button, contents "Knowledge is the New Gold™ eBook" plus "Bonuses 1:09:22", and the seller rating "(0 Ratings)". The page is linked from the "GET THE BOOK" buttons on https://stephobi.com/kitngbook/.
Limitations: This is the ebook, a different and far cheaper product than any coaching offer. Its price says nothing about what the application funnel quotes.
acsb-minicourseSupports: The live entry point for the automated-course-sales offer. Its headline is "How to Sell Your Online Course Every Week Without Big Live Launches, Posting 3x a Day or Having a Big Audience", it is labelled "Mini course for coaches, course creators and experts", and its OpenGraph description contains the call to action "Apply for Automated Course Sales". No price figure appears anywhere in its rendered page text, read on 2026-08-13 (the `$` characters in its raw HTML sit in markup and scripts, not in price copy; `₦` → 0 hits). Its only outbound offer link is https://stephobi.com/apply/, which returned HTTP 404 when requested the same day — though the seller's older application page, /oldapply/, is live and takes bookings.
Limitations: Establishes that this particular funnel page is application-gated and priceless on its face; it does not show what an applicant is quoted after the form, and it is not the seller's only application route.
