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
Cris Wood's review...
I joined CLB Learning in August, 2023. Since then I have added over 100 quality subscribers (and counting) to my list and have gained many referrals in the programs I promote thru the CLB funnel system. And that has been with minimal use of the system on my part. Because of the results I have been seeing with the CLB Learning system, and all of the list building skills I have learned thru the owner and community, I am now focusing primarily on CLB to help build my list into the thousands thru 2024 and beyond.

Contact List Builder, or the CLB Learning system, is a free email list building program that was created by Janet Legere in 2003. It is marketed as a 3-step blueprint that teaches it's members the time-proven methods on how to set up funnels, best ways to get traffic to these funnels, build their list, and promote their programs at the same time.

This is a true self-funded list building and money making system!

The CLB Learning program uses Leads Leap as it's primary list building platform. The CLB funnel pages have share codes for capture pages, landing pages, and email series. Having a Leads Leap Pro account is highly recommended, however, the CLB Learning system works great with free Leads Leap accounts.

Janet is a very pro-active and hands on owner/admin. She does live weekly trainings where members learn how to effectively use the CLB Learning system, in-depth training on using Leads Leap, how to use mailers, and anything else that member's may ask for training on. For those who would like to share their areas of knowledge, or to work on their presentation skills, Janet even gives members the opportunity to step up and give some training during these lives.

Although CLB Learning has all the tools and resources needed to build a list at the free level, there is an option to upgrade to Lifetime Pro for a one time fee of $97. The Pro level comes with the following additional benefits:

1. A personally branded blog.

2. Lifetime upgrades at Janet's 4 mailers.

3. Members' affiliate link added to the CLB Rotator.

4. Personal consultation with coach Janet Legere.

There is nothing in the CLB Learning system that I am unhappy with or dislike. It is the best list building system I have been in for over 20 years online.

I would highly recommend CLB Learning system to anyone who is serious about building their email list, or wanting to improve their list building skills while building up their primary business at the same time. The price is unbeatable at free, and the very affordable lifetime upgrade offers much more than other similar programs I've seen that charge the same price on a monthly or annual basis.

Referral Funding
Frank Hudacek's review...
My experience with the program so far

I became an independent agent with David Allen Capital ('DAC') about 12 months ago. The company supports businesses by providing working capital (revenue based funding), business products and services, ERC (Employee Retention Tax Credit) assistance, insurance, payment processing, and more.

DAC serves the ‘Gig' worker, up to corporate owner. Funding advances range from $400 to $2 million. The entire business model is an online platform, with an application submitted by the business owner.

The company provides same-day-funding, and 1-3 day funding on larger amounts. There is no application fee and no obligation.

What I Like

What intrigued me were the simplicity and affordability of the business. My career was in banking so I was able to adapt quickly. I went online and became an agent.

There is no cost to enroll to be an independent agent. You work from home. There is no monthly cost to maintain agent status. This is absolutely a no-cost to own and operate business. You can operate as a single agent or build a growing agency. There are no territory limitations and we're in Canada.

My experience has been good, quick to learn the company basic dos and don'ts. The training is straight forward, with weekly Monday and Friday live video training calls.

Here's the clincher, the company does not make a dime before you make a dollar!

What I Dislike

Also, here's the reality of this business... If you don't work your business, if you don't seek prospects that convert to clients (users of products and services), if you don't produce sales, then you will not produce commissions for yourself (don't forget, you're an independent agent).

Final Verdict

When you do produce sales the commission payout is very good. Agents are paid the same or next day after a business funding closes. If you decide to build an agency and recruit other agents, there are commission increases on your personal production, the team production, and more.

Anyone can do this, but it takes a determined, organized person, willing to make calls, work this as a business, and then results can be very lucrative.

With the low cost (zero cost) of entry it's worth the time to Become an Agent, get inside the back office and kick the tires. Attend the training and hear from the owner and agents what it takes to succeed.

The company views Business Owners as Rock-Stars and has developed an extensive network of agents understanding, When the bank can't help, We Can!

Costas Alba's review...
My experience with the program so far

Discovered Pictory while searching for an easy way to create videos for my content marketing. As a solopreneur, I don't have a big budget or video production skills. However, I know that video can help engage my audience and improve my website and blog SEO.

From the first time I tried out Pictory's free trial, I was impressed by how intuitive the platform is. Within minutes, I was able to turn one of my blog posts into a professional-looking video complete with AI narration. The video came out better than I could have done on my own. I've been able to experiment with their various video creation tools. The AI video generator and editor have been easy to use and produced great-quality initial results.

What I Like

One of my favorite Pictory features is how it analyzes my scripts and blog content to automatically extract key sections into short highlight videos perfect for social media. I've found these clips get much more views and interaction than static posts alone. It's like I have my video editing assistant working for me! The ability to add captions that boost watch time has also really increased my reach. I also appreciated the free plan which allows getting started without any costs. The quality of auto-generated videos is amazing.

What I Dislike

Processing times can be slow at times depending on the project size. Some more customization options in the editor would be better but again the excellent response from Pictory support also gets issues addressed quickly.

Final Verdict

Overall, Pictory has already taken my content marketing game to the next level. And with continued innovation, it will stay my go-to platform for all video needs moving forward. For any solopreneur or a small business just starting in the video, I wholeheartedly recommend checking out everything Pictory has to offer.
With Pictory AI you can harness the power of AI and amazing video creation tools to grow your audience while saving you time. They offer an all-inclusive free trial period without the need to use a credit card or pay any fees. So it is risk-free and easy for anyone to have a try and test what it can provide.

Matt Houchins's review...
I started using Leads Leap a little over a month ago and I am very pleased with my results so far!

When I joined, I immediately upgraded to a pro membership and it has been well worth it. I have had 23 sign ups to my email list over the last 6 weeks.

I have also had several direct signups to the platform and many more followers. Most of the signup traffic I have received so far, has been from my pro ads on Leads Leap, so it has been well worth the money I spend to be a pro member on the platform.

I have also had several affiliate sales for a commission of $33 as a result of the signups to my email list. I have tried several other paid advertising methods, but have not had anywhere near the conversion rate that I am getting with the Leadsleap ads.

In my opinion the Leads Leap platform is well worth it, just for the advertising and conversion rate, I am very happy with my progress on the platform so far.

i definitely recommend that you give the Leads Leap platform a try, it is the best.

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 -

  • 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.

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.
