Philip Martindale's review...
Master Affiliate Profits (MAP) is a system that has been put together by John Thornhill and Omar and Melinda Martin. John Thornhill is the founder of the successful and popular Ambassador Program. Omar and Melinda are CMO and CEO of Higher Level Strategies, providing training, products and services for online marketers.
Their aim with MAP is to provide a complete ecosystem for affiliate marketers. The intention is to safe-guard leads (so they are not poached by the program vendors) and to include traffic, training and tools within the system. In addition, affiliates who sign-up will enjoy high commissions, even up to 100% during the current phase 2 that is open until the end of April.
My experience with the program so far
I joined about 3 weeks ago as a MAP Backer during phase 2. Though I consider myself very experienced with affiliate marketing, I have learned some absolute gems in the training. Implementing this new-found knowledge has helped me attract some high quality traffic to my one-link and build my list. I am confident that sales will follow soon as I can tell from the built-in tracking that I am getting a lot of interest from potential buyers.
By joining in phase 2, as a platinum member, I am showing my lifetime commitment to MAP. I can see how the system will remove many of the obstacles that have been holding affiliate marketers back. I am going to get 75% commissions on affiliates who join and upgrade to higher levels during phase 3, and I will also be entitled to level 2 commissions of 25%. As members will have to pay monthly (from phase 3 onwards), this will add up very nicely.
The lifetime cost of $797 (one-off) is good value for what you get, and just two sales will be all I need to earn more than that back,
Free members (joining in the imminent phase 3) will also be able to earn high commissions e.g. 100% on a product inside the system called traffic jump-start and 25% commissions on silver, gold or platinum level sales. Higher commissions are attainable by joining at the higher levels.
What I Like
I especially like the lead safe-guarding that MAP offers owing to the fact that it is an ecosystem. Its holistic qualities also mean that I have almost all the training and tools that I will ever need. The tools range from the ability to build funnels to creating bonuses and more. The training covers subjects such as list building, email marketing, traffic, video marketing, blogging, social media, and creating ads and banners.
I like the fact that the compensation plan is easy to understand and does not include gimmicks like powerlines and spillover and so on.
The fact that it will have a free membership option from phase 3 onwards, appeals to me, as it will be easier to sign prospects up who may then go on to upgrade.
I also like the way you can potentially earn commissions from external sources that the system integrates with or utilizes, such as WarriorPlus, JVZoo. Clickbank, Udimi, Aweber, Getresponse and so on.
The way that I can sort or filter my clicks by source, tracking ID and date, is a great feature as well as the way my leads and sales data are displayed.
What I Dislike
There is nothing I dislike. It has a few 'coming soon' items, but as long as they are indeed coming soon i.e. in phase 3, that's absolutely fine. The training and tools that are there are already very extensive.
Final Verdict
The system lives up to the claim that it is an ecosystem, with safe-guarding of your leads, built-in traffic, one link to promote, generous commissions, extensive training and tools and a thriving Facebook group.

Mark Hodgetts's review...
My experience with the program so far
Secrets of the Big Dogs has been an information product in circulation since 2001 and it remains just as relevant and important today as when it was first released. The program has two main components -
The entire concept and program is the brainchild of Stan Stuchinski who makes himself available to all members via phone or email.
I became aware of this program a decade ago, but rather foolishly wasn't prepared to part with whatever the cost of the eBook was at that time. I've come close to purchasing the book on several occasions and finally took the plunge a month ago.
I'm twenty-two years late to the party, but it feels like I've come home.
What I Like
First and foremost I like Stan's writing style. It is a style that I can relate to. The content is spot on and is delivered in a no-nonsense, take-no-prisoners kind of way that leaves you with no illusions of what is required to succeed online. I particularly like the section where Stan outlines the characteristics of "Alpha Dogs. " I found the way that was written to be inspiring.
The formula for success is simple but requires commitment and some patience (2 characteristics of "Alpha Dogs").
After reading this book, I honestly believe that the prospective marketer has two choices - EIther take the action suggested or shelve their dreams of internet success.
What I Dislike
I can't say that I agree with every choice Stan makes in his CHIP portfolio, but I do agree with the vast majority. I actually contacted Stan in regard to this and he was quick to assure me that the program I queried was under review and may not make the cut in the next edition. Either way, it wasn't a deal breaker, as I could simply choose not to be involved with that program.
Final Verdict
I believe that Secrets of the Big Dogs is a must-read for any prospective online marketer be they a novice or a seasoned professional. It pulls no punches, lays out an achievable plan of action and backs up that plan with outstanding responsive support.

Secrets of the Big Dogs has been an information product in circulation since 2001 and it remains just as relevant and important today as when it was first released. The program has two main components -
- an eBook which can be purchased for a one-time cost of $7. The book has been described as the most dangerous eBook on the internet and while I'm not given to hyperbole, I can see why it is described as such,
- an ongoing "CHIP"(Coordinated High Income Portfolio program that costs $10 per month.

Linda Bomba's review...
My experience with the program so far
Lead Hero is premium red hot buyer traffic and is own by Glenn Fedoruk. If his name sounds familiar it is because he is either the #2 vendor on Udimi and I have used both.
While I got a decent opt in rate with the solo ads, I ran from him on Udimi he himself has said this traffic is better because it is buyer traffic, and it does cost more. I always say you get what you pay for and my experience with lead hero was better.
One of the big differences is how slow the traffic I got from his solo ads as I would wait sometime 2-3 days before it would start and Lead Hero it was much faster.
A got an email with a link where I could see all my analytics and track them and on Udimi I just got an email that he accepted my purchase and I have to go to my account to look and see if it has started and how many clicks, I got on it.
For the solo ad I ran with him on Udimi I got 43 leads for 100 clicks plus 6 bonus clicks and for lead hero for the same amount of clicks and xxx bonus clicks I got xxx leads.
The difference is price is $53 for 100 clicks on Udimi and $79 for the same number of clicks on lead hero slightly higher but I think it's definitely worth it.
The ordering is slightly different on Lead Hero than it is on Udimi, they have the following packages you can buy. These packages are at a 25% discount.
Premium Buyer Clicks- 2800 clicks per week for $1,950, 400 clicks per day paid weekly at 0.69 per click.
Premium Buyer Clicks – 1400 clicks per week for $975, 200 clicks per day paid weekly at 0.69 per click.
Premium Buyer Clicks – 700 clicks per week for $485, 100 clicks per day paid weekly at 0.69 per click.
Premium Buyer Clicks – 350 clicks per week for $243 paid weekly at 0.69 per click
These are monthly subscriptions that you can cancel at any time but once the traffic starts there no refunds.
If you skeptical you can try their test package for Premium Buyer 100 clicks for $79 at 0.79 per click
What I like
I didn't have to wait long for my traffic to start which I love some vendors take days before you actually see any leads and they send you a link where you can track your progress with clicks and leads.
What I don't like
The cheapest package to start is $125 which may be difficult for some people on a small budget.
Final Verdict
Lead Hero is a premium traffic source used my some of the top marketers in this industry so it has a proven track record. If your looking for a affordable traffic source you will want to check this out!

Ray Trainer's review...
The Home Business Academy Review
I love the HBA (Home Business Academy) because it works! Everything that I was told about this All In One $25.00 business is incredible and I am very excited to not only save money with the digital products, but the community feels like a family that actually cares about my success! I love that a portion of the sales I make also go to a wonderful cause to help feed starving children! My only regret is that no one told be about it 6 yrs ago when they started! The owners really care to help people become financially Free with the 80% commission structure! Just Amazing!
What I Like
I must say this program is like none other than I have been a part of in the past. The tremendous quality of training is just unmatched in my mind. Mike and Paul are 2 of the most genuine and helpful people I have met online over the years. I love the Home Business Academy because it all about helping other to achieve their goal in life. I'll be short!
The Home Business Academy (HBA) is an online platform that offers training and support for people who want to start and grow their own home-based businesses. The platform provides various courses, tools, and resources to help members learn the skills and strategies needed to succeed in the world of online entrepreneurship.

One of the key features of the HBA is its training program, which covers a wide range of topics related to online business. The program includes courses on topics such as affiliate marketing, email marketing, social media marketing, blogging, and more. Members can access these courses at their own pace and receive support from the HBA community and staff.

Final verdict
Not only is it 'newbie friendly' and affordable this is an opportunity for you to gain lifelong freedom. The training is like none I've seen. So thorough, with step by step instructions, and everyone in the community jumps to help you right away. It is hard to put into words how you feel once you become part of the family. You feel a sense of belonging from the very first day.

Frank Hudacek's review...
My experience with the program so far
I joined the Home Business Academy Affiliate Program about 18 months ago and it has been one of the best choices I have had with any affiliate program. Being an online marketer for 15 years, after investing considerable amount of funds in various other programs, early-on, I find the HBA has just about everything an online beginner to the experienced marketer will need.
The co-founders and support staff are very helpful, responsive, knowledge-based and professional. They take the time to answer the questions or concerns the affiliates may have. Real people, faces and voices, there to answer questions.
What I Like
The commission structure is one of the best offered in this online space, and paid weekly. This residual income is paid month after month for as long as your signup remains a member. The HBA program has provided the right platform to steadily grow my online business.
What I like is there is not any real selling involved. With the HBA I can offer this affordable program even when someone might say 'No' to my original, other product or program offer.
The HBA platform can be used for online and offline businesses. You can build funnels, pages, merchant sites, community programs, and more, and market them across any market location.
What I Dislike
There's nothing I dislike about The Home Business Academy. Being experienced the start up was quick, the online help and videos are clear walk-you-thru, A-Z.
For the newbie the amount of information could be overwhelming at first, but the Monday thru Friday live online sessions, the Q&A, the over-the-shoulder instruction, should not leave anyone with a feeling of being 'lost'.
Final Verdict
The Home Business Academy is an excellent resource for entrepreneurs of all levels. It's affordable, reasonably priced, and stays current on what changes are happening in the market.
The HBA has 11 live events Monday thru Friday, available for replay. Many are over-the-shoulder training by the co-founders and other successful affiliates of the HBA.
Whether you're interested in starting up a home business from scratch or refining your existing small business model, the HBA can give you the resources and advice you need to succeed and grow
Furthermore, their generous monetary support of an international program to feed starving children is an important part of the heart-felt center of the company and affiliate community.
I would recommend this program to anyone looking with a desire to grow and take their business to basic or highly, experienced levels.

How has my experience been with this system? It has been great, exceptional, and awesome. Some days click traffic is low but other days I get signup after signup from this system and it has been amazing to open my emails and see another signup to my link.
This System Has provided lots of value and has given me autopilot traffic along with many other great things with value. I have been achieving much with this system and it allowed me to get some great leads and some sales and I can continue getting sales from this system with the amount of lead signups I get.
My experience has been great, especially with how easy it is for someone to get into the system, submit their link, and then sit back and watch signups happen. It is best to choose a program that is working though or you won't get any traffic.
When I say that what I mean is that traffic depends on the offer you have. If you go to a traffic provider and provide a bad landing page or offer your experience will not be good.
What I Like
When I say the above statement about choosing the right thing to promote within this system I mean it but...
That's one of the things I like. If you are a complete beginner one of the bonuses is the vendor will show you some various things that he STILL gets signups to and will give you some things that you can get an affiliate link to even if you are a new affiliate with one or less offers.
I also like how he provides value within the system of many other ideas for making money online.
He provides you with a bonus of how to find MORE TRAFFIC outside the system. Yes, the vendor did not stop at just a simple autopilot traffic rotator method, HE ALSO provides you with AMAZING ways to find more traffic, things that I am using day after day to pull in lead after lead and sale after sale.
He offers many, MANY bonuses within the system and as well I have added some of my own affiliate bonuses when you decide to get click engine. The bonuses that Jeff and I offer are well over thousands and thousands of dollars in value when we are talking about value with the bonuses.
Jeff and I want every marketer to succeed and I believe this system allows even beginners to succeed with a lot of the best things in place so you can succeed.
What I Dislike
I haven't found one thing yet that I don't like as I always say in reviews if a system is working well for me It is usually hard to find one thing that is wrong with it.
So for me, I haven't found a lot that I can honestly complain about with this system as I have made traffic come to me on autopilot and had lots of success getting sales and signups.
Final Verdict
I highly recommend this system. I have received traffic on autopilot and have benefitted from it BIG TIME. The value inside the system is great and you can also find OTHER traffic elsewhere within the system as well he teaches you where to look for other traffic.
All in all, I recommend this system to beginners, intermediates, and experts straight across the board and would say that if you are still struggling with finding offers or traffic then this system might just be your answer!
I am offering some pretty good bonuses with this system too as I mentioned above which can be found in your purchase through Warriorplus in the Affiliate bonus section. Some report an extra income system that I have been enjoying and making money on and some ebooks to help you with your newfound traffic. That being said if it does not work and the affiliate bonus doesn't show up please contact me at scott@civicedgeaffiliate.com and I will get you set up with the bonuses that I offer.
