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.

List Building
Scott Dubois's review...
My experience with the program so far

My experience with the list-building course right here I took over a year ago was exceptional. Let me explain a little about where I started.

When I first started out in Affiliate Marketing I had been struggling. I made 40 dollars in my first 3 months and that was it. I was starting to get discouraged and could not keep it up...

Here is what I was doing... I was doing affiliate marketing with Amazon and to be honest, I have long since found a proper way to do affiliate marketing with Amazon but it's not the same way that Affiliate marketing is done with digital products.

The way I was doing it was going to Facebook, Instagram, and every other social media network and just posting an unattractive link in my feed and waiting for sales... Not good at all as it only brought me 40 dollars in sales in my first 3 months.

One night I was on YouTube listening to music and an ad came over while listening to music that mentioned something to do with Affiliate Marketing. The rest is history. I signed up AND 8 days after I completed the 30-day course (Less for me because I did it in about 20 days because you can work at your own speed) I had my first sale of 1000.00. My commission on that was 500.00

What I Like

I like the teaching style of Igor. He shows you step-by-step how to set up everything from your domain to your email autoresponder, he teaches you how to find other winning offers and even teaches you how to get traffic from another source that I also use to get signups to my list.

He talks in a way that is not complicated and it is quite easy to follow along with everything if you need to pause the video for a second to set up what he showed you in a slide it is quite easy to do so.

His support is always at the ready and always willing to answer all messages that come their way. I usually had a message within a couple of hours and never had to wait a day or anything for support to get back to me...

I like how well he mentors and he isn't like the gurus out there that people are told to stay away from. Really if there are any beginners out there who are looking for a mentor to teach you Affiliate Marketing I recommend that you start with Igor as he is the best in the biz

What I Dislike

I didn't dislike anything in the course because it was all very informative. It taught me quite a bit about the business and taught me many things about the business that gave me many aha moments. I have even a couple of times gone back to the course to look up stuff or get inspiration.

Final Verdict

I don't know if I need to say any more about this course as I have stated all throughout this review it is an amazing course and I really recommend beginners to take a shot at it. Igor is the best in the biz and teaches a very thorough way of earning an income with affiliate marketing.

I have many bonuses to go along with the bonuses he offers if anyone is interested in taking the 30 day challenge. Trust me though you won't regret it.

This course is well worth every penny!

Carl Davies's review...
Hey there! Today, I'm excited to share my experience with OptimizePress, the ultimate tool for creating captivating and conversion-focused websites. Buckle up as I take you through my journey with this powerful tool.

My experience with OptimizePress so far.

As someone who's constantly tinkering with websites to find that perfect blend of design and functionality, OptimizePress has been my trusty sidekick in the ever-evolving digital landscape. From crafting stunning landing pages to building comprehensive sales funnels, it's been a game-changer in elevating my online presence.

What I like about OptimizePress?

First and foremost, its drag-and-drop interface deserves a standing ovation. Whether you're a seasoned web designer or a newbie navigating the digital waters, crafting visually stunning pages is a breeze with OptimizePress. Plus, the extensive library of templates and elements provides endless possibilities for unleashing your creativity without breaking a sweat.

Moreover, the seamless integration with popular email marketing services and payment gateways is a godsend for entrepreneurs looking to streamline their online business operations. With OptimizePress, you can effortlessly capture leads, nurture relationships, and drive sales without juggling multiple tools.

What I dislike about OptimizePress?

Hey, no tool is perfect, right? While OptimizePress has been a dream to work with, there are a few niggles that I've encountered along the way. For starters, the learning curve might be slightly steep for those diving into the world of website building for the first time. While the tool offers ample resources and tutorials, a bit more hand-holding for beginners wouldn't hurt.

Additionally, while the templates are amazing, some more variety in niche-specific designs would be a welcome addition. As someone catering to diverse audiences, having a wider array of templates tailored to specific industries would save time and effort in customization.

My final verdict.

Drumroll, please! OptimizePress is a powerhouse in the realm of website building and marketing optimization. Its user-friendly interface, robust features, and seamless integrations make it a must-have tool for anyone serious about making waves in the digital sphere. While it's not without its minor quirks, the pros far outweigh the cons. So, if you're ready to take your online presence to new heights, look no further than OptimizePress. Trust me, your website will thank you later!

Happy optimizing!

Traffic Exchange
Tom Rooney's review...
My Experience with the Program So Far

I've found TrafficEra to be a unique blend of traffic exchange and social networking, aimed at boosting online visibility. It's a platform where you can dive into various advertising tools like website surfing, splash page creation, and banner ads, alongside a vibrant social network. The experience has been a mix of learning and engaging, with a notable emphasis on community collaboration.

What I Like

The standout feature of TrafficEra is its comprehensive approach to online marketing. The ability to not just exchange traffic but also create engaging splash pages and participate in a community-driven network offers a multifaceted strategy for digital presence. The community aspect, where users support and uplift each other, adds a layer of value not commonly found in similar platforms.

What I Dislike

Despite its benefits, TrafficEra comes with challenges. The platform has a steep learning curve, which can be daunting for newcomers. The time commitment required to fully engage with all its features and the community can be substantial, which might not suit everyone. Additionally, navigating through the sheer volume of content and interactions to find what's genuinely beneficial can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Final Verdict

TrafficEra is a robust platform for those dedicated to expanding their online visibility through a community-centric approach. It offers a unique set of tools that, when leveraged properly, can significantly enhance your digital footprint. However, it's best suited for users who are willing to invest time in learning its intricacies and engaging with the community. If you're looking for a straightforward, less interactive approach to online marketing, TrafficEra might not be the best fit. For those ready to dive into its community and explore its diverse advertising options, TrafficEra can be an invaluable asset in your online marketing arsenal.

Traffic
Bobbi Jo Nichols's review...
I'm excited to share my experience with LeadsLeap, and let me tell you, it's been a GREAT addition to my online business.

One of the features I really like is the Traffic. So many users are seeing my business content and that's what I needed.

The targeted traffic is there, in front of real people interested in what I have to offer.

What I Like

I'm not a techy person, but the interface allows me to go through the program easily. I like the way it gives instructions on each page where I need it most.

It has the instructions right there in each area so there is no need for me to spend hours trying to figure it all out. I can jump in and get started boosting my leads right away. LeadsLeap is like having my own Teacher here with me. Very real feedback from real users.

It's gives trust and credibility to my Brand right out the gate. It is truly a step up from some platforms, it has the community right here for you. It's not just another platform. It's a hub for marketers and entrepreneurs to come together. Similar to a support family to keep you moving onward.

What I Dislike

It's a good idea to follow up with your referral's, the double-optin format keeps your referral contact information.

I like to know my referral and their contact information. I want to make sure they know, like, and trust me. You definitely want to create a page for LeadsLeap if you want to follow up with referrals.

Final Verdict

LeadsLeap is a great tool to get your business out front and on top, a terrific resource to move your business upwards.

Whether you're a seasoned marketer or just starting out, this platform has something for all types of niches and programs.

Get ready, this is a boost in leads. This is a community that's going to give back.

Trust me, I wouldn't steer you wrong!

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.
