Mark Hodgetts's review...
My experience with the program so far

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:

  1. The authenticity of traffic.
  2. The volume of traffic.
  3. The responsiveness of traffic.
  4. The profitability of the affiliate program.

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:

  • List Mailers
  • Traffic Exchanges
  • Viral advertising
  • Bitcoin earning sites
  • Rewards earning sites
  • Most profitable traffic earning sites

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.

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

Welcome to my review of Leadsleap. I have made a couple of reviews now on Leadsleap 1 of which is a video review of it on YouTube and the second is on my website. I have reviewed it twice and now a third time here.

I guess that being said. I LOVE LEADSLEAP! !

Let me just say this. I am thrilled to have found such a great website like Leadleap. When I first saw it on my first safelist website I joined I didn't want to go to it because I thought, "Oh yeah probably another MLM, or failed program, or whatever.

Jeff Aman who I work with on a few things suggested LeadsLeap. So I finally went and checked out this site...

What I found out then was that this was not only a place to earn passive income and traffic, but it was a place to also have an all-in-one Affiliate back office with all the tools you could ever need or want.

Still unsure of this new landscape I dove right into the pro membership which I know when you are trying something out you are going to say "Really Scott? " Well no. This year going on my second year in affiliate marketing I told my wife "I am going to capitalize on traffic this year and try and go above 60 sales! " Which in my first year, (Last year) Is what I made.

So all of that being said I took the chance on pro not really knowing what this new landscape held for me but trusting my gut which is something I do most of the time when doing business and I made Investments that better my business.

Whether it's a new income system or a new traffic system or whatever have you I make an investment that can benefit my business for a long time. So I got pro and went on to test the waters out per se. So I started out posting my pro ads, making landing pages, and testing out the affiliate tools and really got into it.

I set up some reviews and here is where it gets really interesting. In the past month and 5 days, I made 14 sales from my reviews. THIS WEBSITE BLOWS MY MIND. I have been super excited to be part of such a great community and I am glad I made the investment and went with LeadsLeap.

What I Like

  • I like the all-in-one affiliate back office where you can get all the tools ever needed to succeed online. What are those tools? You get a link tracker, rotator, autoresponder, a place that hosts images and PDFs (For lead magnets), form/popup manager, squeeze page and landing page builder, funnel builder which is great for sales pages and whatnot, and much, much more.
  • I like how easy it is to get traffic to see your offers.
  • I like the 5 income streams that this site offers and I have already made some money from that as well.
  • I like how well all the tools work including the trackers.
  • I like how great the page builder is when creating landing pages. The only other system I've used that is this good is Lead Pages and even then it is far too expensive for that so LeadsLeap is a great place to switch landing pages over to and for less money which in the business world it is best to get things for less if it is at all possible because to do things cost-effectively it is best to shop around for the best tools and Leadsleap is that place with the best tools.
  • I like all the pages having tutorials that help you along if you ever need to check out any tutorials on what each thing does.
  • I like how with the squeeze pages you build can be linked with a third-party autoresponder Awebber, Getresponse, etc.

What I Dislike

The only thing I can say that is a dislike on Leadsleap is the autoresponder. The autoresponder is easy to set up which is great. When driving traffic to a list inside the SendSteed app, however, there is a feature that I and many other marketers do not like and that is the double opt-in feature. Unfortunately, this can't be turned off and it sucks when you drive let's say 109 prospects to your page like I did in the past month and only 59 verify which means you only get 59 and the other 50 are unverified which means that contact vanishes and you can't send an email to them unless they verify. This feature is a very small dislike but very annoying when trying to get Leads so you can nurture and sell to that lead.

Final Verdict

Despite the one dislike I have to say that Leadsleap is a must-have if you are going to be successful in the Affiliate Marketing world. The system is very, very great especially when setting up pages, autoresponders, and any of the other tools that are needed in the marketing industry it is also only 20ish dollars which is great considering all the tools it gives you which is a steal because buying all those tools separately (I know because I have had all those tools separately) runs you up about 100-150 dollars in the hole before you even get your first sale and then you need to have a bunch of sales every month to make up the 150 dollars. Do keep in mind those prices are Canadian for me and that's crazy when starting a business.

Leadsleap is a steal and honestly, I would suggest upgrading to the pro especially because it unlocks a couple of other things that boost your business. If you don't see the value in paying the 20 every month then you are looking for the wrong things and what you have with Leadsleap is a state-of-the-art system that helps businesses not hinders them.

My closing statement is to get LeadsLeap and add it to your business as an investment it is amazing and in no time you will be pulling in traffic and sales!

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.

Heather 's review...
I stumbled upon Wealthy Affiliate (WA) years ago and absolutely loved it!

I am a Lead generation coach who is always consistently updating my skills and along with my mentor, WA keeps that information fresh for me!

What's cool about Wealthy Affiliate is that it's not just about learning the ropes. It's like this virtual cheerleader that says, "Hey, just be yourself! " That confidence boost has made a real difference in building my own business.

Starting in WA, my very first week I had a referral!

Okay, so getting a referral in a week might not be the norm, but it shows how powerful Wealthy Affiliate is. It's not just about teaching you the online biz tricks; it's about helping you be confident and real in a digital world.

Wealthy Affiliate is more than just a training thing; it's like a bunch of buddies cheering you on. They get that being yourself is the key to success in the online game.

Since I joined Wealthy Affiliate, I've not only learned useful stuff but also started seeing actual results. It's not just about the numbers; it's about feeling confident and connecting with my audience in a genuine way.

If you're looking for a place that teaches you online business without making it all complicated, check out Wealthy Affiliate. It's not just a training program; it's like a journey where you discover yourself and start making things happen.

Frank Hudacek's review...
My experience with the program so far

I became an independent agent with David Allen Capital ('DAC') about 12 months ago. The company supports businesses by providing working capital (revenue based funding), business products and services, ERC (Employee Retention Tax Credit) assistance, insurance, payment processing, and more.

DAC serves the ‘Gig' worker, up to corporate owner. Funding advances range from $400 to $2 million. The entire business model is an online platform, with an application submitted by the business owner.

The company provides same-day-funding, and 1-3 day funding on larger amounts. There is no application fee and no obligation.

What I Like

What intrigued me were the simplicity and affordability of the business. My career was in banking so I was able to adapt quickly. I went online and became an agent.

There is no cost to enroll to be an independent agent. You work from home. There is no monthly cost to maintain agent status. This is absolutely a no-cost to own and operate business. You can operate as a single agent or build a growing agency. There are no territory limitations and we're in Canada.

My experience has been good, quick to learn the company basic dos and don'ts. The training is straight forward, with weekly Monday and Friday live video training calls.

Here's the clincher, the company does not make a dime before you make a dollar!

What I Dislike

Also, here's the reality of this business... If you don't work your business, if you don't seek prospects that convert to clients (users of products and services), if you don't produce sales, then you will not produce commissions for yourself (don't forget, you're an independent agent).

Final Verdict

When you do produce sales the commission payout is very good. Agents are paid the same or next day after a business funding closes. If you decide to build an agency and recruit other agents, there are commission increases on your personal production, the team production, and more.

Anyone can do this, but it takes a determined, organized person, willing to make calls, work this as a business, and then results can be very lucrative.

With the low cost (zero cost) of entry it's worth the time to Become an Agent, get inside the back office and kick the tires. Attend the training and hear from the owner and agents what it takes to succeed.

The company views Business Owners as Rock-Stars and has developed an extensive network of agents understanding, When the bank can't help, We Can!
