Cris Wood's review...
I joined CLB Learning in August, 2023. Since then I have added over 100 quality subscribers (and counting) to my list and have gained many referrals in the programs I promote thru the CLB funnel system. And that has been with minimal use of the system on my part. Because of the results I have been seeing with the CLB Learning system, and all of the list building skills I have learned thru the owner and community, I am now focusing primarily on CLB to help build my list into the thousands thru 2024 and beyond.
Contact List Builder, or the CLB Learning system, is a free email list building program that was created by Janet Legere in 2003. It is marketed as a 3-step blueprint that teaches it's members the time-proven methods on how to set up funnels, best ways to get traffic to these funnels, build their list, and promote their programs at the same time.
This is a true self-funded list building and money making system!
The CLB Learning program uses Leads Leap as it's primary list building platform. The CLB funnel pages have share codes for capture pages, landing pages, and email series. Having a Leads Leap Pro account is highly recommended, however, the CLB Learning system works great with free Leads Leap accounts.
Janet is a very pro-active and hands on owner/admin. She does live weekly trainings where members learn how to effectively use the CLB Learning system, in-depth training on using Leads Leap, how to use mailers, and anything else that member's may ask for training on. For those who would like to share their areas of knowledge, or to work on their presentation skills, Janet even gives members the opportunity to step up and give some training during these lives.
Although CLB Learning has all the tools and resources needed to build a list at the free level, there is an option to upgrade to Lifetime Pro for a one time fee of $97. The Pro level comes with the following additional benefits:
1. A personally branded blog.
2. Lifetime upgrades at Janet's 4 mailers.
3. Members' affiliate link added to the CLB Rotator.
4. Personal consultation with coach Janet Legere.
There is nothing in the CLB Learning system that I am unhappy with or dislike. It is the best list building system I have been in for over 20 years online.
I would highly recommend CLB Learning system to anyone who is serious about building their email list, or wanting to improve their list building skills while building up their primary business at the same time. The price is unbeatable at free, and the very affordable lifetime upgrade offers much more than other similar programs I've seen that charge the same price on a monthly or annual basis.

Linda Bomba's review...
My experience with the program so far
Paid Per Letter was launched on January 15, 2024, is owned by Lisa Kryml. She made over $78K last year doing this program part-time and is now teaching others to do the same.
There is a one-time set up fee of $199.99 and there is an affiliate program as well which is a one-time $20 to set up and then $25 per month. The compensation plan is a 3 x 10 matrix. For every person in your matrix, you earn $5 which you might get some spillover.
If you refer anyone to the program, you earn a $100 commission. They pay you $5 for every letter you write, and they provide training.
This program is simple and if you're at least 18 years old and you can read and write you can do this program.
Earn money through hand-written letters. They teach you how to start earning up to $50-$75 per hour by writing letters to select large businesses all from the comfort of your home even with no experience.
After going through the course, which took me about 32 minutes and I wrote my post card and envelope and submitted for approval which they will review it to ensure you did it correctly.
What I Like
I like the fact you don't need to refer or sell anything with this program. It's so simple and you decide how much you want to do. For example, if you did 200 letters in a month you would earn $1K which is cool.
What I Dislike
So far nothing.
Final Verdict
This is the simplest program I have seen in my 12+ years in this industry literally anyone who can read and write can do this and earn.
This is perfect for stay at home mom's, retirees, students anyone who is looking to make additional money working full or part time from the comfort of your home.

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
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.

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

Scott Dubois's review...
My experience with the program so far
My experience with the list-building course right here I took over a year ago was exceptional. Let me explain a little about where I started.
When I first started out in Affiliate Marketing I had been struggling. I made 40 dollars in my first 3 months and that was it. I was starting to get discouraged and could not keep it up...
Here is what I was doing... I was doing affiliate marketing with Amazon and to be honest, I have long since found a proper way to do affiliate marketing with Amazon but it's not the same way that Affiliate marketing is done with digital products.
The way I was doing it was going to Facebook, Instagram, and every other social media network and just posting an unattractive link in my feed and waiting for sales... Not good at all as it only brought me 40 dollars in sales in my first 3 months.
One night I was on YouTube listening to music and an ad came over while listening to music that mentioned something to do with Affiliate Marketing. The rest is history. I signed up AND 8 days after I completed the 30-day course (Less for me because I did it in about 20 days because you can work at your own speed) I had my first sale of 1000.00. My commission on that was 500.00
What I Like
I like the teaching style of Igor. He shows you step-by-step how to set up everything from your domain to your email autoresponder, he teaches you how to find other winning offers and even teaches you how to get traffic from another source that I also use to get signups to my list.
He talks in a way that is not complicated and it is quite easy to follow along with everything if you need to pause the video for a second to set up what he showed you in a slide it is quite easy to do so.
His support is always at the ready and always willing to answer all messages that come their way. I usually had a message within a couple of hours and never had to wait a day or anything for support to get back to me...
I like how well he mentors and he isn't like the gurus out there that people are told to stay away from. Really if there are any beginners out there who are looking for a mentor to teach you Affiliate Marketing I recommend that you start with Igor as he is the best in the biz
What I Dislike
I didn't dislike anything in the course because it was all very informative. It taught me quite a bit about the business and taught me many things about the business that gave me many aha moments. I have even a couple of times gone back to the course to look up stuff or get inspiration.
Final Verdict
I don't know if I need to say any more about this course as I have stated all throughout this review it is an amazing course and I really recommend beginners to take a shot at it. Igor is the best in the biz and teaches a very thorough way of earning an income with affiliate marketing.
I have many bonuses to go along with the bonuses he offers if anyone is interested in taking the 30 day challenge. Trust me though you won't regret it.
This course is well worth every penny!

Joe Marujo's review...
My experience with the program so far
Let's get one thing out of the way up front: A lot of marketers are advertising this as a way to "make $2000 without enrolling anyone. "
While that is a mathematical possibility, it's not going to happen. No one is going to make $2000 per month just by joining. I'm sure that's going to upset some folks, but we need to be real.
Having said that, if you do market this program, you will make money. No program ever created by Ben Glinsky did not make people money. This one will be no different.
The Powerline fear of loss model is very convincing and will convert lot's and lot's of people.
What nobody is talking about is that there are some very good products that are reasonably priced, especially for an MLM. Ben has a licensed pharmacist on staff that probably wouldn't risk his professional association if the products weren't legit.
I also like the fact from a marketers standpoint is that you can promote this without any additional tools, which makes it very newbie-friendly.
The email follow-up provided by the company is also very good, again, using the fear of loss as a very compelling motivator.
What I Like
You might not really understand what we have here with LiveGood...
That is, unless you see it like I do.
You see, I've been an on and off member, fan, and yes, victim of the MLM/network marketing business model for more than 3 decades.
This is not my first rodeo.
In all those years I, like many, have searched for "the unicorn. "
The company where the average person can actually win.
It never really existed.
Don't get me wrong, there are some really great companies occupying the MLM space.
The problem is, they're filled with roadblocks that keep the average person constantly chasing a dream that never comes true.
Roadblocks like:
Expensive starter packs, where you are encouraged to buy huge qualifying product purchases if "you really want to succeed... "
Overpriced products so they can pay commissions to the top, like hundred-dollar protein shakes that you can buy at Walmart for 22 bucks...
Monthly autoships that can cost hundreds of dollars just so you can stay active in the comp plan.
Monthly recruiting quotas that the average Joe (no relation) just can't keep up with.
You get the picture.
With LiveGood, they literally threw out the old, broken MLM model.
Instead, they took a page from the Amazon book. This is the Amazon Prime Business Model.
Charge a small monthly membership fee ($9.95) and sell quality products at below-wholesale prices.
You only buy products when you want to and when you need to. No quotas. No autoship.
Does it work? Ask the 100,000 people who joined in the last 90 days. Get on the Zoom calls and watch the countless people that never had success before and are finally winning.
So even if you've seen it before and you think you know, watch the video and take the free tour. This time, pay attention to what's really going on here.
What I Dislike
I find the company provided websites a little cheap-looking but since most of us create our own marketing, this shouldn't be a deal breaker for you.
Final Verdict
What we have here though, is a no-brainer.
For just $10 bucks a month you have a very marketable program and get to buy some very good products at very-wholesale prices.
Imagine if you had the opportunity several years ago to market "Amazon's new Prime Membership Program. "
Now imagine if you were getting paid $.25 per month for all the Prime memberships active today...
This might be the closest thing ever to the elusive unicorn.
I look forward to winning with you!

Traffic Hoopla has been around for as long as I can remember. It has evolved a lot over the years and has responded to the changing dynamics of the advertising industry as the traffic generation industry has evolved.
Starting out as a ranking service for traffic exchanges solely, Traffic Hoopla has never really pretended to be anything else other than a downline builder and a ranking service.
Over the years there has been much conjecture about the veracity of the rankings, but every week without fail, Hoopla's owner, Bill Carr has published his rankings. He doesn't shy away from the fact that he ranks each advertising service according to several key factors. These are and always have been:
He has copped criticism from time to time about seeming to favor certain exchanges and not rating some very popular ones. However. He has been consistent in ranking traffic services according to his criteria.
From its humble beginnings of ranking the top 10 exchanges, Hoopla has now become a viral traffic generator of its own accord with specific sites dedicated to slightly different sections of the market. Besides the flagship program, Hoople also has sites dedicated to:
Each program draws you further into the traffic web, with several traffic sources (including Leads Leap) being consistently recommended across all sites.
As a traffic builder, Hoopla has proven to be more durable than anything else on the market, it also has the added bonus of generating some affiliate commissions over time.
What I Like
Hoopla first and foremost has a trust element built into its brand. It keeps on keeping on. By and large, its rankings (with the occasional surprise) are pretty close to my own perceptions. It is consistent, clear, and never wavers from its core purpose of building traffic. If you use this and recommend it to others, it will help you to build traffic over time.
What I Dislike
Some of Bill's emails are a little folksy for me, but that's really nitpicking. I'd like to see a little more how-to guides for beginners in the member's area as it can be a little confusing. Sometimes. , I fear that Bill's desire to keep things simple may be a little overzealous. But it seems to work for him - so who am I to judge?
Final Verdict
The Hoopla family should be part of your marketing arsenal. Preferably recommended on the back end of your marketing efforts. It is proven to work, helps build traffic, and has been around for almost as long as Traffic Exchanges. If you haven't joined, I think that you should.
