Mark Hodgetts's review...
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.

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.

Frank Lefebre's review...
My experience with the program so far
I call Leadsleap "The Internet's Best Kept Secret! "
Hi, my name is Frank Lefebre from Columbus, Ohio. I have been in network marketing for over 30 years. I have been full-time since 2009. I have used Leadsleap tools since 2008 but never promoted it as a business opportunity.
One day I was looking around the members area and discovered I had $163 in commissions (at 25%) and a downline of over 200. People joined from the tools and a few of them had upgraded. I thought "what if that had been 50%? " I immediately upgraded to Pro to earn 50% commissions and I started promoting. To date I have earned close to $4000. (see updated stats below! )
Update 12/18/22:
Total Followers: 634
Total earnings $1364.65
Update 3/8/23:
Total Followers: 740
Total earnings $2072.15

I wish I had "discovered" Leadsleap sooner. Don't make the same mistake.
What I Like
I love the tools and particularly the landing page builder and autoresponder.
Residual monthly income. Even free members can earn!
Pro Members can have their ads shown in the network 24/7 without credits. Pro Members also have unlimited lists, pages and popups, and access to several other advanced features. You can check it out in the Member Area. Pro Members also earn 50% commission and get free followers.
What I Dislike
You don't get your referrals' contact information (privacy rights) therefore I suggest making a capture page for Leadsleap if you plan on following up with referrals.
Final Verdict
I absolutely love Leadsleap and highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about building their online business and income.

Linda Bomba's review...
My experience with the program so far
The best affiliate marketing program in this industry. It has a 64% success rate which is unheard of in this industry.
They build a funnel for you and import 50 follow up email messages into an auto responder which they do recommend you use Aweber. Most programs do NOT set up a funnel for you it is something you have to do yourself so if your technically challenged this is great!
They funnel is a hybrid which means people have the option to go directly to the sales page and buy or book a call with someone. These are staff who are closes sales for you on the back end. I recently made 3 sales that they closed for me that I don't know if I would have made those commissions without them having closing sales people working for all of their affiliates.
What I Like
I have gotten my best results in the over 12 years I have been online. I made $14K in 31 days implementing what this program teaches.
They have brand new community with gamification with bonuses to make learning fun. Access to exclusive contests with insane prizes get a chance to get your dream vacation paid for!
Additional new video lessons consistently being added and currently we have 17 live calls each week and new app which will be launched soon.
What I Dislike
I am loving this program and its one of the best that I have found in my 12+ years of being online. What I really haven't like is the merchant account they use as I am still getting use to how they set things up and in the beginning it was a bit of a challenge getting it set up and hooked up to my bank account.
Final Verdict
This program is especially great for new people and anyone who is technically challenged as they set up your funnel and the email sequence for you. They are 50 follow up emails that go out directly from your auto responder to all your leads.
Truthfully all I do is drive traffic to my funnel and the funnel and the sales people on the back take care of the rest. Its like having your own little army working for you 24/7 and I love the fact I woke up to a $6K+ commission while I was sleeping!
If you're brand new or you have been at this for awhile and your not getting the results you definitely want to check out this program.
It has been life changing for me as well as so many others.

Bob Johnson's review...
My experience with the program so far
I recently discovered localcityplaces.com and decided to give it a solid two-week trial before recommending it to others. Now, having spent some time exploring its offerings, I'm genuinely impressed. The platform is often described as a cross between Yelp and Groupon, but with a significant twist: you can earn money by reviewing local businesses! It's an excellent opportunity for anyone looking to supplement their income, whether on a part-time or full-time basis, by doing something many of us enjoy.
I encourage you to check out their introductory video and then sign up for free to start enjoying and sharing your reviews. An exciting perk is that if you're the first to register as a member in your city, you'll be designated as an Ambassador. This status grants you the privilege of listing your business for free on your page. Plus, if you're the pioneer reviewer for a company that subsequently signs up for advertising, you're entitled to a 20% commission. And the benefits extend five levels deep, offering substantial earning potential.
What I Like
I really like the idea of being part of a directory where I can share my opinions. It's fun, doesn't cost anything, and you can even make some money from it. It feels good to help local businesses by writing reviews, and it's nice to know that my thoughts can help other people find cool places around town. Plus, it's a bonus to support small businesses and see them do well because of my reviews.
What I Dislike
There are so many directories out there, making it a bit hard to get noticed. But, if Local City Places really takes off, it could go really far.
Final Verdict
I really like Local City Places. It's a chance to try something new without spending any money, just a bit of your time. With its very appealing compensation plan, it makes it a great oppunitity to consider diving into. It's fresh and exciting, and I think it's worth giving it a shot.

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
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.
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.
