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.

Scott Dubois's review...
Hello everyone! Today, I'm excited to share my experiences with the OLSP system, which I've been exploring alongside my other marketing tools and promotions.

The OLSP system has been an intriguing journey for me. When you initially sign up, the process is free, but there's an upgrade option available for just $7 at the top of your dashboard. This minor investment significantly amplifies your promotional capabilities. You can share your upgraded link across various platforms, including Facebook, safelists, and other traffic sources. Diversifying your traffic sources, unlike Facebook and TikTok as recommended by Wayne Crowe, is advisable beyond the usual Facebook and TikTok traffic.

After upgrading, you'll encounter an optional offer (OTO) for a Facebook tool. I opted in, and it has proved quite effective. This tool automates some tasks but still requires active engagement to truly amplify your reach, whether you're a novice or a seasoned marketer. However, this is not needed at the start honestly.

Influence plays a pivotal role in affiliate marketing, and increasing your visibility through platforms like Safelists, Facebook, or soloads is vital. The OTO aids in expanding your Facebook presence and directing targeted individuals into your funnel. However, for newcomers, I suggest not rushing into link-sharing. Instead, focus on offering value and forging genuine connections.

For example, when I interact with someone new to this field, I inquire about their use of essential tools like squeeze pages and autoresponders, crucial for capturing leads and maintaining contact. My approach is to educate them on the significance of these tools, drawing on insights from seasoned marketers like James Neville Taylor.

This educational engagement is the type of value I offer when connecting with new Facebook followers. Once they trust and value your advice, they're more likely to explore the OLSP system you recommend.

While I've successfully signed up users with OLSP, I'm still awaiting my first sale from those users. Nonetheless, once someone joins through your link, Wayne Crowe's team steps in to handle the sales process, making it relatively hands-off for you.

Now the magic link is even better which you can also sign up for, for an additional 7 dollars which is even better...

You get paid per sign-up... AND THEN get paid again and again when you send emails to that list and even more when you make a sale with the email list... These emails are emails you are sending out but every time your list clicks you make money every time they buy you make money. From this, I have received lots of commissions now

For just $7, (14$ if you get the magic link as well) OLSP is definitely worth considering. You can add it to your marketing rotator or promote it directly to your existing list. It works seamlessly in the background, potentially generating passive income. I've gathered leads who receive daily communications from Wayne's team, including invites to live sessions designed to convert them fully.

I would also like to add that the 7 dollars to promote a whole big huge sales funnel of things that can potentially net you over 200 dollars just to promote that one link and potentially have people buy is really good seems how other products will tell you. "Oh to be able to promote my high-end back-end products you need to pay an additional... " Yea, you get what I am saying... I've made my investment back now... Easily...

Here's what I appreciate about the OLSP system:

Its simplicity makes it straightforward to promote.

The done-for-you sales process is a significant advantage.

The training is thorough and supportive, providing substantial guidance.

The concept of earning passive income through the system is attractive.

Regular live training sessions and an active Facebook group offer additional support.

THE MAGIC LINK! INNOVATIVE PIECE OF TECH

On the downside:

I have made commissions now so my previous statement in my previous cons list is taken away now. I have been making commissions from the magic link almost effortlessly.

Final Verdict:

I believe the OLSP system is worth a try, especially at such a low entry cost. While I await my first sale, I'm optimistic about its potential to generate passive income. I plan to increase my focus on OLSP soon alongside my other promotions.

If you're curious about it, I recommend giving it a try. The support is excellent, and it's an affordable way to potentially enhance your online marketing endeavours. I hope this review has been helpful. Best of luck in your marketing journey!

Sergiel Ettinger 's review...
Overview of Classifiedsubmissions.com:

Good day fellow internet marketers! I was introduced to Classifiedsubmissions.com about a week ago based on a recommendation from a trusted source. Classifiedsubmissions.com is a service, which for a very reasonable fee, will promote your classified ad and website each month to 1000's of advertising pages.

In addition your clickable text ad will be displayed in rotation at the top of every page on 26+ high traffic sites 24/7 providing quality exposure on 1000's of advertising pages each month.

What I Like

There are many things that I like about Classifiedsubmissions.com. For the exposure and amount of traffic they can potentially provide to your website or landing page, the value is tremendous for the amount they charge.

They have various packages available to fit a variety of budgets. One option is the monthly submission package which runs $39.95 per month (+ $10.00 set up fee for the first month). This package is a great way to test out the traffic before committing with a higher priced package. The next package option is the quarterly (3 month) package for $77.00. Finally there is the yearly package for a one time fee of $197.00, providing a savings of $282. This was the package I opted for as it provided the most bang for my buck.

Once your account is set up you are provided with a members area in which you can track where your ads have been placed as well as the hits / clicks you are receiving to your advertisement.

As of the time of writing this review it has only been four days since I signed up and paid the $197.00 fee and I have received 211 unique clicks, the vast majority of which have come from the US.

What I Dislike

If there is anything negative to be said about Classifiedsubmissions.com, the only thing I can really say is that the traffic is not completely targeted. Unlike say Facebook or Google ads, where you can target a certain interest group or demographic, the classified ad submissions are broadly placed. However, if you are promoting a topic with broad interest such as, income, health, or relationships you should have a good response rate in any event.

Final Verdict

If you are looking to grow your email list or increase the traffic to your website or landing page, in my view you cannot go wrong with Classifiedsubmissions.com.

Joe Marujo's review...
My experience with the program so far

Just 2 weeks ago this program launched. I was in profit on the first day. I started using the backup right away on my pc and happy to say it's fully automated and instant.

The iphone and android app is reported to be ready in just a few weeks. My wife will be happy since she has hundreds of photos of our grand kids on hers.

What I Like

The product has universal appeal. Everyone can relate to having a phone not back up because they're out of cloud space, or having lost photos or contacts because of a damaged or lost phone. Most of us run our entire business from a pc or laptop. Who hasn't lost files or media from a crashed hard drive?

For less than ten bucks a month for 6 devices, the comp plan is just gravy on top. 200% fast start commissions and check matching (very powerful) this really is a no-brainer!

What I Dislike

There's not a lot to dislike. If I had to nit-pick, I've never been a big fan of binary pay plans. Fortunately in this case it's just one of the ways that we get paid.

Final Verdict

For less than 10 bucks per month, you really can't go wrong here. Even if there was no compensation attached, this service would be worth it.

It's needed by everyone and really can't be beat at this price point.

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

Get instant targeted traffic to any offer. You have full control of your campaign as you can stop and start it anytime you wish.

I ran one campaign and got 175 leads!

In fact, I started getting clicks from the moment I published my ad. It was super easy!

I am currently running a second campaign and so far, I have gotten 262 leads.

What I Like

Easy to set up a campaign you choose niche, make money online, weight loss or health.

They recently added categories for English tier one countries and one for international tier countries.

It also allows you to pick traffic providers or leave it blank for all. Also, you pick countries or leave blank for all as well as devices, operating system, and traffic tags such as email, engaged, mixed, funnel, excess clicks, Facebook ads or webinar registrations. If you want all tags, you just leave it blank.

It allows you to set the maximum clicks, total & daily budget and for unlimited you can just leave them all blank.

What I Dislike

Really nothing but it might be helpful to have more tutorial videos. There is only one which appears on their main web page, and I don't see any videos inside the affiliate account.

Final Verdict

This site was recommended to me and so I decided to give it a try. I will let this campaign run for 10 days look at my results and then run another one. Will update my results here as I go along but so far it delivered leads quickly.

I set up and ran 1 campaign, spent $300 and got 175 leads not sure if I got a sale or not but I am promoting a high-ticket offer. I am pleased with the results, so I am running another campaign and testing with different offers. This is my go to number #1 traffic source that gets me leads fast.

Stephen Crossland's review...
My experience with the program so far

This site quickly became my number 1 recommendation. Why? Where else can you claim so many amazing promo codes at most of the very best mailers. In fact at the time of writing you can now claim 57 promo codes for solo ads, email credits, banner ads and text ads all for free.

Jason the owner, also has an amazing bargain upgrade option, where you can claim at all the sites, all over again for loots more free advertising.

What I Like

The thing here that is often overlooked, is that the free advertising gives your referrals a big incentive to join all the sites. And guess what? When they join they are joining through YOUR affiliate links and when they upgrade you get the commissions.

There is also an unmissable daily promo code to claim and a weekly promo code. I log in every day here and never miss claiming.

Recommending this site to my followers, saves them many hours clicking for ad credits, and helps them build their down lines in whatever programs they are promoting.

What I Dislike

It may sound like I am being greedy, but I would like to see even more sites taking part.

(Jason has promised to keep adding more sites in the future).

Final Verdict

This is my number 1 recommendation. I rate this a must for all online marketers.
