Scott Dubois's review...
My experience with the program so far

Hello and welcome to my review on GetResponse. Before I start this review I would like to say that this in the future will not be my main autoresponder if you go to my other reviews and check out my review on my other favourite autoresponder you can check it out. The other autoresponder I like is called SendShark and will be my main autoresponder in the future.

GetResponse has been an amazing autoresponder. I have had an amazing run with it. I would have to say that GetResponse and Aweber are the top autoresponders (Up until I found out about SendShark) in the Affiliate world.

The autoresponder is easy to use and easy to set up your account once you are on the inside. The system has normal features that every autoresponder has.

Forms to create HTML codes for your capture pages on other sites like LeadsLeap, It has your broadcasts, the autoresponder campaigns, it has a capture page and landing page builder, easy setup of different lists and an easy-to-see and use contacts list.

One additional feature I like about GetResponse in the contact list area is the ability to see how engaged your clients are.

Getresponse has a 5-bar system to show how engaged each client is bar 1 is not engaged at all.

Bar 2: Is at risk of going to bar 1

Bar 3: Is Neutral engagement

Bar 4: is Engaged

Bar 5: Is highly engaged,

Now I like this system better than other autoresponders because it is easier to see how engaged these people are. This makes it easier to Clean Your List! As I have stated in previous reviews Cleaning Your List Is like taking your dirty laundry to the laundromat or your own washing machine. Simply if you don't work on your list and don't "wash your Laundry" Your list will get dirty and it will affect your open rates and so on. It is extremely, EXTREMELY, important that you clean your list now and again.

After meeting so many of the higher marketers in our industry and speaking with them, like John Thornhill, Igor Kheifets, James Neville-Taylor, Dean Holland and many others they always say CLEAN YOUR LIST.

GetResponse does make this easy with their bar system which shows how engaged the client is. The unfortunate part is this is not like looking forward to clean laundry though... Sometimes it is sad to see clients go and sometimes I have to remind myself as sad as it is I have to do what is best for business and get rid of the unengaged people who are bogging down my open rates. I am seeing darn near 60% open rates because I clean my list regularly. I usually wait a month but no more than a month because a certain newsletter might bring them back which I have had happen. My mentor Igor Kheifets when he was teaching me said something in his training about "Resurrecting the list" and I have done that with certain campaigns not so much the list itself but more so with clients who went dormant.

Anyway, enough rambling on about that. This feature is truly amazing and easier than other autoresponders.

I also like their easy-to-use save-a-template feature.

Ever get sick of making an email and having to add your business logo maybe even your picture and a few other things every single time to every new email you write? I do too. They have a very easy-to-use save-a-template feature where you can keep a template you've made for the future. For instance, my current template is...

Logo

Body

selfie of myself

and then my whole body is preformatted to the regular 18 pt font and Georgia text which is a normal setup for emails in email marketing.

I know its a very short description of my template but really the only thing changing in that each time is the body of my email the rest of the template never really changes.

All in all GetResponse has been a really amazing autoresponder but of course, is no longer my top recommendation (As I said above see my review on Sendshark) GetResponse also has automation and stuff which the SendShark autoresponder lacks.

I don't really ever use automation very much anyway so really for what I use GetResponse for, Sendshark gives me the same.

What I Like

  • I like the easy-to-use autoresponder. It is very simple and one of the top autoresponders and can honestly say it is probably even better than Aweber in some aspects
  • I like the save-a-template feature as it is very simple to save a template with the normal setup you always use for emails
  • I like the engaged bar feature as I mentioned above it is really easy to see who is and is not engaged on your list with this feature.
  • I like how easy it is to set up emails with a few clicks of a button you can have an email setup in seconds
  • I like that GetResponse seems like one of the more professional autoresponders. I am all about being professional so when I see a tool that reflects that I really like it as I was brought up being taught about business and professionalism.

What I Dislike

Usually, I don't have complaints about systems that I thoroughly enjoy but this one on the other hand I do have a couple of dislikes.

  • Price- The price can be steep as I am paying 30 dollars a month right now for 2500 subscribers and that is not horribly bad but when you go past 2500 the price can go up from there. In my review on SendShark, I talk about the price for that autoresponder for 50,000 subscribers it is 25.00 a month or 300 for a year and when you get up to 50,000 subscribers with this one it is 245 dollars a month or 2940 dollars a year... Yea, that's going to be steep especially when I plan to take this Affiliate Marketing straight to the top and hope to have a huge list someday...
  • TOO PICKY... Sometimes when trying to import your subscribers from other lists on other autoresponders you own when those subscribers have opted into your list they don't like you importing them and will reject the import... Do it enough times and GetResponse will just bring down what I like to call "The Ban Hammer" I have never been banned by them but this makes it hard to switch over to them with a list from another autoresponder because they are too picky. I once tried to bring over a list from a different autoresponder because I was trying to get rid of it and they rejected it. They were prequalified leads but they wouldn't allow it...
  • Last dislike... They will take away campaigns and stuff if you knock back your subscription... Yup if you ever downgrade I got told that it will erase my work if I downgrade... That is sort of a kick in the pants considering that you did all that work into building those campaigns and they don't let you keep them there if you downgrade...

Final Verdict

My final verdict is I still think eventhough I had 3 dislikes about GetResponse that it is still worth it to the right person. If you don't care about the above dislikes and care to have a very professional autoresponder then GetResponse is for you. They are really amazing and really simple to use.

I said above that they are probably better than Aweber. I have had many issues with Aweber that I haven't had with GetResponse.

They are a great Autoresponder and I do stand behind them despite the dislikes. It was the very first autoresponder I started with and I have been really amazed.

I hope you enjoyed reading my review on GetResponse and I hope I have helped you make an informed decision on whether or not to go with GetResponse! Thanks for reading and I will catch you the next time.

Joy Healey's review...
Update March 2024

Just been reviewing my reviews at LeadsLeap :-)

Some I have deleted as they didn't stand the test of time, but The Downliner is still firmly on my favourites list. Sending me traffic (especially from the Social Posts). Just this morning I had a renewal commission from a long term customer, so he is presumably as impressed as I am.

My experience with the program so far


I first joined this program three years ago, then left it while I had a break from online business, but I always remembered it fondly.

So when I came back online and was reminded of it, I was pleased to restart my paid membership, and, within my first month, someone who found a site I'm advertising on The Downliner joined my business. That's more than covered the cost of my first month's membership.

Within my own contacts I have recruited two TDL team members who have been equally impressed with the site, Both have upgraded too, and stayed long term members. My commission was registered promptly (can be withdrawn when it reaches $20), although I tend to use it to buy further advertising. I found several 'free' members too, but it's not uncommon that T/E members stay free.

What I Like

  • There are 3 levels of membership, one is free and the other two are extremely good value.
  • Free members can earn from their referrals
  • There's a low ($20) threshold to withdraw your commissions by PayPal or Payza
  • You're only 'charged for' unique views, other views are classed as Free Views.
  • There's a lot to get my head round, but within the site dashboard another member has provided an extremely helpful explanatory video
  • Support is excellent, I even had prompt answers over the weekend
  • Paid members TDL can join the 'TDL Machine' which gives access to All In One Profits, a complete suite of business tools with plans starting at just $10 a month and paying an amazing $10 a month commission (even more for the higher plan levels). The TDL Machine will find you 6 paying members to get your AIOP business off to a flying start. I didn't join this as I already have an auto-responder, but for anyone with no a/r this would be a great benefit.
  • The TDL detailed stats show where my link is being seen and how long visitors stay on my site
  • You can earn 'shop points' to use in your own promotions, by promoting a co-op link
  • Otherwise you can buy 'shop points' at an extremely low cost, or by upgrading
  • You can 'win' points with a daily wheel spin, and I win regularly - maybe 75% of the time.
  • You can also earn points by clicking on solo-ads that come to my in-box, clearly labelled.
  • Traffic is coming from a vast array of sources including PTCs, Safelists, Traffic Exchanges, Classified Ads, CPC traffic and well as social media I received thousands of clicks in just a few days for 5 minutes 'work' placing my social media post link on the TDL ads section.
  • Most important of all, my links are being rotated on more traffic exchanges than I've even heard of. There's no way I could cover afford the time or money to promote on all those sites personally.

What I Dislike

I wish there was a way that I could target specific countries, but nothing else.

Final Verdict

Advertising on the Downliner is saving me a ton of time and money while building my list, and - most important of all - I know it's genuine traffic because I have already had an email exchange with a lead who took a paid upgrade.

Highly recommended.

Jordan Angelovski's review...
My experience with the program so far is wonderful

Systeme.io is all-in-one marketing platform provides the convenience and accessibility that we all crave.

The systeme.io suite includes several tools, including:

Funnel builder
Email marketing software
Online course builder
Marketing automation
Affiliate program management
Blogging platform

First of all, truly a wonderful customer service team. When they meant that they will reply to your query or solve your issues within 10 minutes!

I like everything about it, the email marketing campaign, the blog, the drag and drop builder. Everything is pretty simple, although it does take some getting used to and toggling around.

Website loads super quick and isn't laggy at all.

This all-in-one tool will save you time and money by providing you with all of the tools you need in one handy location.

Many big marketer are already switching from other platform to Systeme because is much cheaper, much faster, and easier to use.

Systeme.io is completely risk-free to get started with. You may start utilizing the platform's services for free by signing up for free (no credit card necessary)

As relatively new they are great and will be even better over time

They have a very interactive Facebook community and welcome suggestions to continue to improve the software which is another plus in the series.

What I Like

I really love that I have everything I need under one simple to use system.

What I Dislike

Have not found anything I haven't liked yet.

Final Verdict

Highly recommend!

My experience with the program so far

What is MegaMailOut?

MegaMailOut is a product by Dawud Islam that will in my opinion be able to get anyone lots of traffic. My experience was pretty good when I did it and I will explain why. In this product, Dawud offers 5 soloads to be sent to over 35,000 people 5 TIMES so if we look at the math that is 175,000 people (These people are on his list. )

Now, any soload you look at buying (after being in this industry a year and seeing how to operate this online industry I have figured the following out) will run you anywhere from 40 dollars to almost 100 dollars or more just for 100 clicks.

THAT'S THE BASE AMOUNT.

That is a lot of money. Dawud came up with a simple system for 10 bucks. THAT IS IT. For 10 dollars he will send an email ad that you make to 35,000 people 5 x for 10 dollars. Why has Dawud offered that for so low? Because he wants people to succeed just like I do and that is why I am here sharing this awesome product with you.

What I Like

I like how easy the system is to set up your soload to send to Dawud. All you have to do when setting up everything is make an account login to the system after buying and follow the videos that will teach you how to set up everything. He explains during the videos how to send your email ad copy (which isn't hard) to him and tells you not to overload it with a bunch of stuff in other words Keep It Short! ! Send your URL to him and bam he will send out your email 5 x (or 5 different URLs and Emails) to 35,000 people.

(do keep in mind you also have to send a copy of your receipt to him when sending your ad copy or he will not honor your solo ad)

I like the value he offers inside the system which he has a few bonuses some being some of the safelists he offers and also offers bonuses with some extra info. I will take this time to let you know that I will also add my own sweet bonuses to this.

The system is just that easy. You set it up he does the work and you get some extra value added to it which increases your chances of succeeding online.

What I Dislike

I usually warn people at the start of a review if it is a bad review or not and in this review, it is a good review so I did not find much that I found to be a dislike as I always find stuff that has value and makes sense.

Final Verdict

If you are looking for targeted traffic and you are looking to try something out for 10 dollars I think this is well worth trying as it does offer lots of value and honestly the 10 dollars is better than going to a site like Udimi and paying 40-100 dollars just for 100 clicks.

You will have clicks providing your email is extremely interesting and your offer isn't just one of the already seen offers that are extremely saturated all over the internet. I would strongly suggest building a very decent landing page, capture page to your offer, and then taking note of other email ads that you have seen and making your own. This can take anywhere from 30 mins-1 hour to just research.

As I said above it is well worth it to get this as I did and had success with it. For 10 dollars it is quite a steal unless you like paying 10 bucks for 20 clicks on a soload site.

I strongly suggest this great product by Dawud.

Thanks for reading I hope I gave you some insight into this great product and I hope you find value in my review and in the product as well, as I did. Thanks again!

Carl Davies's review...
Hey there! Today, I'm excited to share my experience with OptimizePress, the ultimate tool for creating captivating and conversion-focused websites. Buckle up as I take you through my journey with this powerful tool.

My experience with OptimizePress so far.

As someone who's constantly tinkering with websites to find that perfect blend of design and functionality, OptimizePress has been my trusty sidekick in the ever-evolving digital landscape. From crafting stunning landing pages to building comprehensive sales funnels, it's been a game-changer in elevating my online presence.

What I like about OptimizePress?

First and foremost, its drag-and-drop interface deserves a standing ovation.

Moreover, the seamless integration with popular email marketing services and payment gateways is a godsend for entrepreneurs looking to streamline their online business operations. With OptimizePress, you can effortlessly capture leads, nurture relationships, and drive sales without juggling multiple tools.

What I dislike about OptimizePress?

Hey, no tool is perfect, right? While OptimizePress has been a dream to work with, there are a few niggles that I've encountered along the way. For starters, the learning curve might be slightly steep for those diving into the world of website building for the first time. While the tool offers ample resources and tutorials, a bit more hand-holding for beginners wouldn't hurt.

Additionally, while the templates are amazing, some more variety in niche-specific designs would be a welcome addition. As someone catering to diverse audiences, having a wider array of templates tailored to specific industries would save time and effort in customization.

My final verdict.

Drumroll, please! OptimizePress is a powerhouse in the realm of website building and marketing optimization. Its user-friendly interface, robust features, and seamless integrations make it a must-have tool for anyone serious about making waves in the digital sphere. While it's not without its minor quirks, the pros far outweigh the cons. So, if you're ready to take your online presence to new heights, look no further than OptimizePress. Trust me, your website will thank you later!

Happy optimizing!

In the world of online marketing, I have found Leadsleap to be one of the best platforms for online marketers. It has cutting-edge technology and proven marketing strategies.

The Leadsleap system has brought me a steady stream of high-quality leads. Whether it's PPC ads, banner ads, or text ads, the platform provides comprehensive analytics and tracking tools.

I like the fact LeadsLeap has a revenue-sharing program, where members can earn passive income by simply engaging with the platform. Leadleap equips businesses with the tools they need to optimize their campaigns and achieve better results.

I like that Leadsleap is very cost effective. The many marketing tools under one roof is a blessing.

Lastly Leadsleap has a very good customer support team. I really have no negative complaints against Leadsleap.

I suggest you sign up. It is totally free to join. Try it out! You will be glad you did.
