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
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.

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.

Dominic Kristianto's review...
My experience with the program so far
I have known Tim for more than 3 years now and he has helped me make thousands of dollars in commissions. I even made more than $1K from his low-ticket product.
Freedom Marketing System, in a nutshell, is the pinnacle of his lifetime work. This is the only simple system that he uses himself that is responsible for getting him to 6-Figure online consistently.
This is not a get-rich-quick scheme, but this is Tim's very own playbook to fix all traffic and lead gen issues for good.
Yep, you read that right. The biggest problem every marketer has is not having enough traffic and don't even know how to generate traffic consistently. Sounds familiar?
In short, the Freedom Marketing System is your ticket to achieving Independence and complete Freedom. Just like the name denotes (well, duh! )
What I Like
The amount and quality of information inside this product is way much higher than its price tag! It should be priced at at least $97 in my opinion, if not more.
The structure is easy to follow and there is also the Live Case Study section so you can see how the system works and how you can also build the system for yourself. Literally.
This is a simple, Easy-To-Follow System that allows you to create and add new passive income streams whenever you want.
This is like a dream come true, but the difference is, you can actually build this system in the real world. That is if you take advantage of what you learn and implement it diligently.
What I Dislike
This might be not a fit for a total beginner who has never done any online marketing before. I'm not saying that as a deal breaker, but if you don't understand the basic terminology like "traffic" and "leads", you need to learn that separately.
Don't worry though, this is not a complex product. In fact, this is made so simple that anyone can create the same system by learning how to build it.
You are not alone in this journey, Tim has made a warm community that you can access if you buy one of the upsells (and it's very affordable also).
Final Verdict
If you ever want a simple system that is risk-free to consistently attract and acquire new customers and clients so that you can enjoy some passive income from your hard work, then the Freedom Marketing System will be the only system that you need.
It may sound so gibberish especially if you look at the low price tag, but I will leave it to you to be the judge here :-)

Char 's review...
My Experience with the Program So Far
When I started with the OLSP System a few weeks back, I was unsure at first. I'd tried other online opportunities before and often ended up disappointed. But this time, things were different. As I got into the training, I saw real results, which surprised me in a good way.
Why I Recommend This Program
The great thing about the OLSP System is that once you're in, all you have to do is share your special link, and the system does the rest. You earn commission every day as people join through your link. Plus, even if they buy later after getting follow-up emails from OLSP, you still earn!
What's Working for Me
I've been putting what I've learned into action, and it's paying off. I've got more people on my email list now, and I'm earning regular commissions without much effort, thanks to the Mega Link.
What I Like
What I Dislike
Honestly, there's not much to complain about. But if I had to pick something:
Final Thoughts
I highly recommend the OLSP System if you want to make money online. The Mega Link feature is awesome, and the system has gone beyond my expectations. It's definitely the future of affiliate marketing.

- The training is super helpful, even for things I thought I knew.
- The system guides you through step by step, so you feel more confident as you go.
- There are options for guaranteed income, which have worked for me.
- The community in the Facebook group is really supportive and motivating.
- Everything in the system works together smoothly to help me make sales.
What I Dislike
Honestly, there's not much to complain about. But if I had to pick something:
- Sometimes there's too much information, and it can be hard to find your way around the site. But they're working on fixing this.
- It can feel overwhelming at first with all the training, but taking it slow pays off in the end.
Final Thoughts
I highly recommend the OLSP System if you want to make money online. The Mega Link feature is awesome, and the system has gone beyond my expectations. It's definitely the future of affiliate marketing.

Frank Svendsen's review...
My experience with the program so far
I joined GOT Backup in late 2023, and primarily bought it for the cloud service. I looked at the website what was included, and quickly determined this is a great deal. I have tried several cloud services, including those "one-time price" types that disappear after a year or 3. But GOT Backup is from a company operating for many years, so I knew I could trust this company. They own their office building where all equipment is, servers, backup power system, RAID system, Argon fire control system, etc. They even use an off-site backup solution that kicks in if everything else fails (which is nearly impossible). GOT Backup is without a doubt a trustworthy company.
Enough of that, let's talk about the juicy stuff. What do you get when you invest just $9.95? It can't be much, right? Wrong!
For under $10, you get a whopping 6 Terabytes of cloud storage! 1 terabyte allows you to store roughly: 250,000 photos taken with a 12MP camera OR. 250 movies or 500 hours of HD video OR. 6.5 million document pages, commonly stored as Office files, PDFs, and presentations. Plenty of space, in other words - you get 6 times that!
Not only that, you can add 5 accounts, so you can share this space with your family. The extra account holder doesn't even have to live at the same address as you, as some require. No - you decide who you want to share this space with. Or keep it all for yourself, it's up to you. One cool usage can be to create accounts for your kids, so they can backup their extensive amounts of pictures to GOT Backup, instead of costly iCloud or Dropbox accounts. Just a free tip :)
One unique thing with GOT Backup is that you can install it on UNLIMITED devices! That is so cool. But I would create an account for each person, as you will sync your device to your designated account in the cloud. Could be messy with everything on one cloud account, haha.
What I Like
You get a lot for under $10. 6TB of data, 5 extra accounts, unlimited devices on all accounts.
The speed of the app and software is impressive! It syncs Gigabytes in minutes!
What I Dislike
There is only a migration tool from Dropbox and Google One. So if you want to migrate from OneDrive, you have to figure it out. But luckily, it is extremely easy to do, and GOT Backup has a great support team ready to help. Also, if you decide to join from my link, I can set up a Zoom to help you get started - at no cost of course. Contact me if you need help.
Final Verdict
To go for GOT Backup is a no-brainer. For under $10 you get 6TB of cloud data on extremely secure servers in USA. You can add 5 accounts for your family or others. And if you want, you can even earn money by telling others about it, as they have an excellent affiliate system that is unmatched in the industry!

Donald Lowery's review...
My experience with the program so far
This is a new program, and so far has been pretty good. They publish training videos, and host live zoom calls. There is an official Facebook group page as well as an internal social media account where you can mingle with other members. I really like that they take the time to check all reviews to ensure they are not put up in order to try and "game" the system.
What I Like
I like the fact that Local City Places is free to join for anyone. I also like the fact that you can earn income from those reviews, but you don't get paid for the reviews themselves, you get paid if the business decides to come on board as a featured business. You need to post honest reviews (good or bad), and they are all checked by a real person to ensure quality vs quantity. Think of it like Yelp or Google Reviews, but you can earn an income.
What I Dislike
The only thing I can say I dislike would be that it can take some time for a review to post, because they are all manually checked (not that this is a bad thing), so it can take a little bit of time for reviews to get posted.
Final Verdict
I would say that Local City Places is a great place to join and post honest reviews for businesses. If you post the first review, and a business decides to join as a featured business you will be paid for each and every month that business stays on board. Can you imagine having a few businesses deciding to come on board as a featured business and getting paid monthly based on that?
There is no sales, you don't have to convince anyone, or any business to come on board, all you have to do is post an honest review, good or bad, and they will take care of the rest. It's just like posting (or reading) reviews on Yelp or Google. I say why not. It really costs nothing but a few minutes, and it's free to join. It's a total win.

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.
