Meir Ben Hadar's review...
"My Online Startup" is a free training program that helps all levels marketers (new/intermediate/experienced) to build a full operational online business from scratch.

This is mainly a training platform but also have a huge side of being one of the top affiliate programs out there.

When you first register as a free member you can start and learn everything from how to buy a domain, and how to maintain a blog, how to get leads to your business and how to become an authority in your niche.

What I Like

As an experienced marketer I like the fact that "My Online Startup" is a real genuine platform that let's newbies the opportunity to really learn how they can open an online business from start to finish.

I think they give real tools for real people and really help them succeed.

I also like their business opportunity where people that joined free can upgrade and make money from the platform with multiple income streams.

What I Dislike

I think some of the modules in "My online startup" could be more user friendly, and it would be nice if they would have a PDF version of the videos about each module.

Final Verdict

In total, I personally really love this platform as a way to learn about affiliate marketing and on how to start an online business, and I also very like their business proposal where they offer earning from multiple streams of income with only one link.

A great All-In-One platform.

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!

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!

What I Dislike

I dislike the fact that I did not find this program sooner.

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.

Costas Alba's review...
My experience with the program so far

Discovered Pictory while searching for an easy way to create videos for my content marketing. As a solopreneur, I don't have a big budget or video production skills. However, I know that video can help engage my audience and improve my website and blog SEO.

From the first time I tried out Pictory's free trial, I was impressed by how intuitive the platform is. Within minutes, I was able to turn one of my blog posts into a professional-looking video complete with AI narration. The video came out better than I could have done on my own. I've been able to experiment with their various video creation tools. The AI video generator and editor have been easy to use and produced great-quality initial results.

What I Like

One of my favorite Pictory features is how it analyzes my scripts and blog content to automatically extract key sections into short highlight videos perfect for social media. I've found these clips get much more views and interaction than static posts alone. It's like I have my video editing assistant working for me! The ability to add captions that boost watch time has also really increased my reach. I also appreciated the free plan which allows getting started without any costs. The quality of auto-generated videos is amazing.

What I Dislike

Processing times can be slow at times depending on the project size. Some more customization options in the editor would be better but again the excellent response from Pictory support also gets issues addressed quickly.

Final Verdict

Overall, Pictory has already taken my content marketing game to the next level. And with continued innovation, it will stay my go-to platform for all video needs moving forward. For any solopreneur or a small business just starting in the video, I wholeheartedly recommend checking out everything Pictory has to offer.
With Pictory AI you can harness the power of AI and amazing video creation tools to grow your audience while saving you time. They offer an all-inclusive free trial period without the need to use a credit card or pay any fees. So it is risk-free and easy for anyone to have a try and test what it can provide.

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

Hello and welcome to my review on Affiliate One. In this review, I am going to delve into the Affiliate One system and talk about the various things they offer. Now I will mention if you are an extra information hog and like lots of information then this is perfect for you. Why I say that is because the advice and ideas you get inside the system are extremely useful especially if you are looking for some new ways of marketing or even just finding out other traffic sources... Well you get the picture Affiliate One offers that.

I really think that as marketers we should always learn things the further into the business we go. Ditch the things that don't work and keep the things that do. Maybe something won't work for you but if it doesn't at least you can put it on the back burner for now and keep it in mind for a time when you find something that the specific strategy will work or whatever.

I am an information hog so I love to gather information and though I may not use it right now most of the information I have gotten over the past year and a half has always in some way shape or form given me an AHA moment and if it didn't then it does later on.

Now, Affiliate One. In this system, they provide you with the normal average details. (Now again you may know how to make a landing page or use an autoresponder but the way they do things may give you more ideas. ) What I mean by average I mean we should all know how to create a squeeze page (If you do not and you haven't created one I have to ask... What Are You Doing! ? Go make that squeeze page because THE MONEY IS IN THE LIST! )They also teach you the normal basics like creating the Thank you page and so on. They give autoresponder training and so on.

They also teach you within the system another way to do follow-up emails and so on. This is the perfect low-cost course if you want to learn extra details on things like that because maybe you just want more ideas for creating follow-ups or more ideas for creating landing pages.

I like any information that I can add to my business so that I can get the best experience possible and that's why I say it's almost best to be an information hog.

They go in-depth on things like creating a rotator, and even how to CLEAN YOUR LIST! I will say right now... To anyone who doesn't clean their list, you are doing it wrong... I say this because to improve open rates, click rates and much more YOU MUST BE CLEANING YOUR LIST UP! . It is like washing your dirty laundry on Laundry Day... If you aren't doing this you will NOT see open rates of 60-70% you will see 10-20% which is horrible. So you must be cleaning the list!

Good details inside this gem so far. Then they go into traffic. Now they explain one source of traffic that I do like and from a website that I like that is called Udimi... If you do not use Udimi you can get the perfect information inside of Affiliate One on how to use Udimi with ease and how to find perfect vendors for your traffic. Trust me it is a breeze once you figure it out. I find the best vendors now on Udimi because of the learning inside of Affiliate One and I got this info from them last year.

They do delve into other traffic sources as well.

They offer 5 great bonuses that include some extra training like how to make 10k in 30 days, (Which for some people can be the case but you need to understand that the results are not typical which means it cannot be guaranteed... No one can guarantee that and you are kidding yourself if you think it can be promised or you are looking for that magic pill that makes you that much every day. So some people will have that result but not everyone can have that result either way it's a free bonus. It is always good to have extra case studies too. ) They offer a bonus funnel, they offer something called the QuickFire Commission Method, and they offer follow-up email swipes and guaranteed approval to promote affiliate one should you choose.

They also have support and various other things.

I did learn quite a bit myself from this and at the very most think that extra information even if you think you know everything about the above things I mentioned you should still acquire information as it is always good because maybe you'll find a hidden nugget inside that can be added to what you are already doing. For me, it was promotions and learning other traffic sources.

What I Like

  • I like the bite-sized training they offer. Many great pieces of information that can be used to give you more understanding of this online terrain.
  • Great support
  • Great email swipes
  • Great Ideas and various things that you need to look out for in the business.

What I Dislike

Now one thing I did dislike was the fact that when I went to set up the bonus funnel they asked you to get ClickFunnels. I am sorry in advance to the people who stand behind ClickFunnels but for the price you are paying for ClickFunnels, I don't think it is worth it... I think maybe Russel Brunson is onto something with click funnels but it is not my cup of tea and honestly I have WAY cheaper alternatives that I use that don't require 90 dollars a month...

That is really my only dislike as the training was all very well put together but unless you already have clickfunnels or have been thinking about getting it then the bonus super funnel will be good for you however in order to use the super bonus funnel you need ClickFunnels.

So that gets rid of one of your bonuses if you don't want to get ClickFunnels which is unfortunate but other than that the training was good.

Final Verdict

My final verdict? Well, I think it is well worth the price to get some extra information and who knows maybe some hidden techniques inside the system will give you an even greater knowledge about how to make it in this online business world. It gave me lots of information when starting out.

It wasn't the main course I took that got me started in AM but it was definitely extra information while building my business that I needed to hear as I was still putting certain things together and just looking for more information on where I could go to get traffic and whatnot.

This course can be a great starting point for many beginners too. For 16 dollars you get to learn the business and get a round-about idea of how it is done.

I think it is worth it and I think the pros outweigh the cons. Thanks for reading and I hope it gave you some information on this system and I hope that if you decide to get it, it will be as helpful to you as it was to me! Have an awesome day!

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.

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

My Experience with this program has been great. It is packed full of great value and can honestly rev up anyone's earnings. Now I started out with this system and literally in 3-4 days I had ended up promoting it and got a 1000$ sale.

The webinar on the next page is 100% correct you can earn big commissions if you implement what is shown and be consistent in finding traffic.

That is the key to success in this online world which is CONSISTENCY you will see it everywhere and being consistent in everything you do will find you the commissions and sales you need and want.

What I Like

I like how easy it is to implement everything. Now I know in most of my reviews so far I have put into them that it is easy to implement mostly everything but that's also because I've been working with computers since I was 3 years old. Now I am not saying at all that it isn't easy for someone who doesn't have tech skills because honestly, this system doesn't need any high-tech skills or a PhD in technology.

DFY Stuff? Who doesn't like DFY stuff? I love it, especially traffic? Yes, there is done for you traffic, done for your email swipes, done for you just about anything!

I like the teachings of the fellow who runs the webinar. He is very soft-spoken and very good to learn from. I have worked closely with him for a year now and honestly, most of his things on the internet he is very soft-spoken and very easy to learn from.

What I Dislike

The stuff I learned from this webinar worked for me. I can say that honestly there isn't much I found that I disliked other than the fact that he has traffic from a blog that you can put your own blog into... I am not much of a blogger and haven't been ever so it is hard to know just what to write...

Thank goodness for AI stuff now huh? I just go and have GPT write the blog for his blog traffic and boom.

Final Verdict

Final verdict is You can learn a lot from this webinar. I did and I am thankful I did. When I had found this gentleman I had been in the industry (On real affiliate marketing) For a whole month... That is it... I learned and learned well and eventually found myself earning money from the stuff he mentioned in the webinar!

To be honest I have sought after much information because in a new world it is best to gain as much knowledge as possible and I learned from many people in this online world. Knowledge is power as they say and that is no different when learning a new business or whatever have you.

This webinar will teach much and the system will teach more. You can be earning a 1000-dollar sale like I did in 3 days or more or less. I personally enjoyed this. And will continue enjoying it
