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.

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:
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.

Dwaine 's review...
My Experience So Far
Starting on the Nexus Rewards journey has been a wonderfully intriguing venture. I joined 1/1/24 and it's now 2/18/24. As an online and offline consumer, I'm always on the lookout for programs that offer value to me while providing potential for growth and income. Nexus Rewards caught my attention as a program that promises to reward its members for everyday activities and purchases.
What I Like
The idea of earning cash back on purchases I would make anyway had outstanding appeal to me. The idea of getting cheaper phone, internet, household utilities, or legal services never occurred to me and I love getting those discounts. NexusRewards has a wide array of participating retailers, which means more opportunities to save--over 3,500 according to their website.
The user interface is straightforward, making navigation a breeze even for those who may not be as tech-savvy. Additionally, the potential for earning through referrals is a bonus, especially for someone like me who values the power of network marketing. I liked that the potential is there for everyone, but for those who don't like networking for money, the app is free to join and free to use.
Another aspect I appreciate is the customer service. In my interactions, (There's been more than a few! ) they've been responsive and helpful, which is crucial for any service-based platform. It's reassuring to know that if issues arise, there's a reliable team ready to assist promptly and clearly.
What I Dislike
No system is without its flaws, and Nexus Rewards is no exception. One of the drawbacks I've noticed is the variability in cash back percentages. While some deals are quite generous, others are less so, which can be a bit disappointing. It's important for users to manage their expectations and not assume uniform high returns on all purchases. I'm not sure what I expected here; but, like I said, no system is perfect.
The learning curve for maximizing the benefits can be steep for newcomers... If 30 minutes to an hour can be considered "steep. " It takes time and effort to understand the best ways to earn and redeem rewards, which might deter some lazy users who are looking for a more straightforward rewards program. So, it took me about an hour to get all set up, but I guarantee it's not rocket science.
Final Verdict
Nexus Rewards offers a compelling proposition for those looking to get more out of their everyday spending. The platform's strengths lie in its broad merchant network, ease of use, and the additional earning potential through referrals. While it may not be the perfect fit for everyone, especially those seeking consistent high-value cash back rates, it certainly has its merits. 40% cash back at some restaurants should be a no-brainer for anyone.
For individuals who enjoy exploring new avenues for savings and income, and who are willing to invest the time to understand the system, Nexus Rewards will be a very valuable tool. It's a program that rewards engagement and loyalty, which aligns well with my philosophy of building relationships and communities in business.
In the realm of cash back and rewards programs, Nexus Rewards stands out as an exceptionally noteworthy option. It's not just about the savings; it's about being wise and thrifty as a part of the community that supports smart spending and financial growth. With a bit of patience and strategy, Nexus Rewards can indeed be a rewarding experience.

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
Hello and welcome to my review of Cliqly. I would like to start out by saying I am simply writing this review to inform you and warn you about this company as they started out great and I did make profit but certain things have happened in between being good and now being a company that I am thinking of starting a lawsuit against... Let's get to it.
My experience with the system had been great right up until the fall when things fell apart MAJORLY...
I had been paid up to 3000.00 or more in commissions at this point and had been making profit. To those who say it isnt possible it is you just need to know how to spend smart and not buy the sales and know how to outweigh prices like you would do when you go to a grocery store and outweigh a sale price with another item that is possibly cheaper or whatever.
Cliqly was a system where you could build a business the right way... Or at least thats how it seemed. I did start to build a very good business was tier 5 and had 162,000+ on my list. I had got paid up until the fall and I had not got my October payment. This was my own fault because my bank gave me the wrong information and I missed my payment due to this...
November I had been given my November payment and had made quite a bit while winning a contest and then came December and January. I didn't get those payments... Now being owed 1000 dollars more I have simply stopped with this company and have talked to support about such things as my payments are missing and furthermore telling them to cancel myinboxpro WHICH they still haven't done and I am still getting charged every month...
See why I am phoning lawyers?
What I Like
Well I did like the simplicity of the system, how easy it was to build your list and how easy it was to email them every day... I did like getting 1-2 payments a month and it was a nice passive income for my business...
What I Dislike
Up above I explained about how I have not been paid 3 payments now and they keep charging myinboxpro and wont refund or stop the payments.
They claim that they don't have enough staff to deal with an "Influx" That happened last year around April and kept going up every month since... Though this could be true and this influx could have screwed up the system as they claimed that a lot of the new members were putting in the wrong bank information (which again I could see as this would create back logs that would jam the system) and they don't have the payment staff to back pay people which they are "Looking" For new staff, it has still created QUITE a strain on the good system they had...
CEO Bobby Jones keeps saying that they will have everything in working order soon but they have been saying this since November and I held onto that promise as I had been paid in the past but still have not seen ANY of my 3 payments paid to my account especially when I am still within my first year and a half of marketing and still need that money to back my business...
I have threatened them with lawsuits and many other things as well as trying to be nice in emails and have not received anything. The support staff don't answer anymore.
Final Verdict
My final verdict is If you want to chance this system then go for it but my true 100% Advice is stay away from Cliqly as it has gone way downhill... People hve been walking away way too much and I hope that you can heed my warning as I do not trust them anymore...
Bobby keeps saying they are working on it but I don't feel these problems should persist more than a month. Staff are easy to find, System problems are easy to fix (I have my own website that I have had to work on and mind you its not as big as cliqly but my website took 2 days to fix without any tech staff when I had issues... ), and payments should be handed out more often if they are behind...
Either way I hope this warning will help you see that this system is not worth the trouble. Take it from someone (Me) Who is going through calling lawyers and news systems to take them down as they should not be allowed to harm people especially when we are trying to get financially free and they seem to be harming peoples funds now...
Good luck and please stay away from this system.
Update: I am still seeing people promoting this no-good program. I finally got myinboxpro cancelled and got my money back on all purchases but still not my pays... I think people need to stay away from this 100%
