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.

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.

I found several 'free' members too, but it's not uncommon that T/E members stay free.
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
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.

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.

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!

Herbert Flores's review...
My experience with Minute Hook so far has been incredibly a game-changer! Not only does it provide me with valuable insights into my blog's performance, but it also helps me track conversions effortlessly. The setup process is a breeze, and within minutes, I had a beautifully crafted campaign running on my site. The animated call-to-action buttons are just the icing on the cake! Just got 78 views and 2 new subscribers in 24 hours after setting up!
Minute Hook, a powerful WordPress plugin and traffic generation system created by Cindy Donovan, promises to make building your email list a breeze. This beginner-friendly tool focuses on ease of use, with pre-built funnels, customizable popups, and automated email sequences all designed to streamline the process. Minute Hook goes beyond basic plugins by offering complete, branded funnels with high-quality lead magnets and targeted email sequences, eliminating the need for extensive content creation on your part. Even those without a blog can get started with Minute Hook's standalone funnels.
What I Like
Minute Hook shines in its user-friendliness. The included setup wizard walks you through the process, with pre-populated content for easy customization. The variety of features is impressive, including AI-powered newsletter creation, monetization options, and integration with popular autoresponders. The 30-day money-back guarantee provides a safety net for those hesitant to try a new tool.
What I Dislike
While Minute Hook offers a fantastic set of features, it's worth noting two limitations. First, the font used in automatically generated PDFs is currently Times New Roman and cannot be changed during campaign creation. This may limit some users' ability to perfectly match their brand's aesthetics. Second, there's no back button during campaign creation. This means you'll need to be careful to avoid mistakes, as editing requires starting over from the previous step. However, the convenience of the system likely outweighs these limitations for many users.
Final Verdict
Minute Hook offers a compelling all-in-one solution for bloggers and online entrepreneurs seeking to build their email lists and online presence. The core WordPress plugin allows you to easily convert your blog posts into lead magnets, while the included FunnelMates membership provides access to five pre-built, automated funnels and newsletters – perfect for beginners or those without a blog. These funnels cover popular niches like affiliate marketing and social media marketing, giving you a jumpstart on building your audience.
Beyond the core features, Minute Hook provides a wealth of additional benefits. The included training zone equips you with the knowledge to maximize your results, while bonus features like the popup generator and content locker module offer even more tools to capture leads and engage your audience. While the aesthetics of the automatically generated PDFs might be limited, the convenience and comprehensiveness of Minute Hook make it an attractive option for many users.
Here's a breakdown of what you get with Minute Hook:
Minute Hook WordPress Plugin: Effortlessly transform your blog posts into lead magnets and leverage their content distribution network for increased exposure.
FunnelMates Membership: Access five pre-built funnels and newsletters, complete with lead magnets, email sequences, and targeted promotions – all managed for you after a one-minute setup.
