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

Hey Guys today I am bringing you a quick review about a new autoresponder that BEATS ALL OTHER AUTORESPONDERS. I am going to go through and explain what is so great and why this system is a must-have ESPECIALLY WHEN STARTING OUT! So let's get to it.

Before I start this review, I was really upset when I learned about this autoresponder because had I known about it when I started January of last year (2023) I would have gotten this right off the bat. I am actually in the middle of switching all my stuff over to this autoresponder as it is more cost-effective to use. In this business, we always want to find the most cost-effective ways to bring in results. This autoresponder offers just that.

SendShark is the name of this autoresponder. Now the system is amazing in many ways. I have only been a member of this autoresponder for about a week and a half at the time of writing this but nonetheless I have gone through it with a fine tooth comb and figured out that for experienced and beginner affiliates alike it is an amazing piece for your business...

Now, For the past year, I have been with a couple of autoresponders. I have one called Builderall which is amazing but I only use it for one of my systems I have DFY emails setup through it but nonetheless use it daily to send to my subscribers on it and GetResponse.

Had you asked me way back in the middle of the year last year I would have told you GetResponse was the best. I loved it. It was great until I realized the major disadvantage.

THE PRICE!

I don't have a huge list yet but nonetheless, it still costs me 30$ish a month which I only get up to 2500 subscribers... Which is ok... But when you start going up that's when you start paying more. And more. And more...

Up above you will remember me saying that your affiliate business (and any business for that matter as this is not my first business. I was a window cleaner and owned my own business) you need to find cost-effective ways to build your list and email your list FOR RESULTS...

This is where I'm going to shatter your ideas about GetResponse... GetResponse charges me 30 dollars a month for only 2500 subscribers right? Well, what if I told you that one of the biggest selling points on SendShark is you get up to 50,000 subscribers?

What would you expect to pay for that? 500 dollars? Lower... Fine 350? No Lower. One more time now how about 100 dollars a month? Nope... YOU WILL PAY 25.00 USD a month for an autoresponder that you can have up to 50,000 subscribers... WOW!

Now... Guess how much you will pay for GetResponse at 50,000 subscribers? 100 Dollars... NOPE HIGHER! 245 whopping dollars a month which will equal about 2940 a year... Which isn't bad if you are making enough sales to cover that cost but is it worth it at that point? Not really because that is 2940 dollars every year out of your sales.

SendShark will cost you around 300 dollars a year. WOW! same amount of subscribers WAY LESS MONEY... Autoresponders are seriously price gouging people now if you take the 2940 - 300 = 2640 left over you save A YEAR...

That already makes this an amazing Autoresponder. NOW other features of SendShark go without mentioning. You have your normal broadcasts, autoresponder, import/export subscribers, and of course you have your place to make forms that will make it easy to use a system like LeadsLeap to make your capture pages, there is your normal page builder on SendShark. There is one more system on SendShark that makes it really cool and to my knowledge, I don't know of this feature being in any other autoresponders and if it is I am sorry.

SendShark gives you the ability to EASILY share your email campaigns with others.

So if you have a course let's say and you have a great funnel built into an email campaign and want to share it with your trainees in your course all you need to do is grab the share code and share it with them. It is kind of like how you share pages and whatnot on LeadsLeap.

Now commissions. When you become a member of SendShark and you start promoting SendShark you will get if I remember correctly 50% commissions...

2 sales and you break even. One of the things I am always saying when talking about affiliate marketing whether it's getting traffic... Or you are getting a system with your tools or whatever it may be, if you can break even you are getting it for free WHICH is the goal because if you are breaking even anything else you make over and beyond that is profit. That is how it should work.

I already have a couple of systems where I am breaking even and have already made a profit because I broke even. Anyway, I will stop rambling and go on to the likes and dislikes.

What I Like

  • Obviously as stated above one major like is the amazing 50,000 subscriber price point for 25.00 a month. I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH
  • This autoresponder is simple to use much like its other competitor's systems Aweber and GetResponse
  • Share capabilities. Easy to share your campaigns with others all at the click of a button
  • 50% Commissions
  • easy to build campaigns
  • NOT AS PICKY AS OTHER COMPETITORS... This has been a very big dislike for me since having other autoresponders like GetResponse and Aweber (I forgot to mention above I used Aweber as well) By this I mean if you are advertising something they don't seem as picky. I can honestly say I was doing a campaign on advertising Myleadgen on Aweber and they got mad and stopped the campaign stating that I can't bring people to a lead system like Myleadgen even though it is a way of getting leads to your list or getting more sales... I will take this moment to say if you want to check out my review on Myleadgen it is on here under my reviews.

What I Dislike

I have yet to find something I dislike.

Final Verdict

My final verdict? I think I have said enough that should honestly show you that this system is the bomb.

As I have stated... My main Autoresponder was GetResponse and though I love GetResponse. I am pulling away from it to use Sendshark as I am finding the price to be better for the number of subscribers you can email. It is more cost-effective and CEO Joel Therien and many other people have said that there is really no reason for many other competitors to be charging as much for emailing a list of subscribers especially when you get up to 50,000 subscribers.

Joel very much so cares about the success of others and that is why he states that this system was made to be cost-effective and whatnot.

So my honest opinion is it is well worth it. Don't skip over this because it could be better for your business as I stated above you will end up saving 2640 dollars a year if your list is 50,000 subscribers or above... THAT in the long scheme of things better because that is 2640 more dollars in your pocket at the end of the year.

In business, you always have to shop around for better tools and whatnot. That is why I jumped on LeadsLeap when I found it and deleted ClickMagick and LeadPages because those two alone were costing me around 90 dollars a month alone...

So make the right choice and I will catch you on the very next review! Thanks for Reading

Make sure to check out my other reviews too. I always try my best to deliver value, proper information, and 100% honest opinions of certain systems. Thanks

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.

Linda Bomba's review...
My experience with the program so far

The Affiliate Advertising Club is owned and created by Clay Montgomery who is a million dollar earner and been in this industry for over 20 years. Over 2,200 people have already registered!

How this works?

You can buy 5 different traffic packages for $10, $20, $40, $80 and $160 to advertise any program, product, service, tool you wish.

Every time you buy a package you get a position in the activity rewards program equal to that purchase.

This program gives you the ability to get real human buyer traffic and the ability to get paid.

They give you 2 ways to earn with this program.

They have a ranked affiliate program that pays up to 20% commissions on your referrals and their re-purchases.

Every AAC member starts off at the rank of Pearl and earns 10% commissions. Any member that you refer and they purchase a traffic package you would earn a 10% commissions. Commissions increase to 15% for those who do $20K in purchases and are automatically promoted to Ruby and to 20% for those who do $50K in purchases are automatically promoted to Diamond.

What I Like

The second way to earn with this program is their Activity Rewards Program (ARP) which rewards active AAC members with a chance to double your advertising spent back. Participation in this program is optional. There is no guarantee of income from this program. It rewards members for being active.

There are no membership fees and always will be free so anyone can join the club at no cost to them

The activity rewards program is like a straight line first in first out matrix. Club members with rewards position will need to perform simple activities. Specifically 5 simple daily activities and one weekly activity.

There are 4 ways to advertise first is rotating text ads on just about every page of the website. Next they graphical banner ads, login and log-off ads and solo ads.

What I Don't Like

At the present time the only way to pay and be paid is crypto currency which for some people that may be a challenge.

Final Verdict

This is an advertising platform that depending on when you're reading this is in pre-launch where you can register and officially launched on October 26, 2023.

With this new advertising program not only can you advertising.

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.

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.

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!
