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.

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!

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

Paid Per Letter was launched on January 15, 2024, is owned by Lisa Kryml. She made over $78K last year doing this program part-time and is now teaching others to do the same.

There is a one-time set up fee of $199.99 and there is an affiliate program as well which is a one-time $20 to set up and then $25 per month. The compensation plan is a 3 x 10 matrix. For every person in your matrix, you earn $5 which you might get some spillover.

If you refer anyone to the program, you earn a $100 commission. They pay you $5 for every letter you write, and they provide training.

This program is simple and if you're at least 18 years old and you can read and write you can do this program.

Earn money through hand-written letters. They teach you how to start earning up to $50-$75 per hour by writing letters to select large businesses all from the comfort of your home even with no experience.

After going through the course, which took me about 32 minutes and I wrote my post card and envelope and submitted for approval which they will review it to ensure you did it correctly.

What I Like

I like the fact you don't need to refer or sell anything with this program. It's so simple and you decide how much you want to do. For example, if you did 200 letters in a month you would earn $1K which is cool.

What I Dislike

So far nothing.

Final Verdict

This is the simplest program I have seen in my 12+ years in this industry literally anyone who can read and write can do this and earn.

This is perfect for stay at home mom's, retirees, students anyone who is looking to make additional money working full or part time from the comfort of your home.

Downline Builder
Judy Meeks's review...
I have only been a member for a few days now and I have already started receiving payments. I have been promoting other programs as well but nothing compares to Automatic Builder.

What I Like

What I like about Automatic Builder is that you can use several different payment methods including Zelle. Zelle is my favorite payment processor because it allows you to get paid directly to your bank account without having to give out your bank information.

There is also a way to accept credit cards that has nothing to do with skrill and ppal. You can still use these two if you want but it is nice that they have an alternative. They also accept CashApp and Gpay.

Tip: When signing up you have to click on Agree to Terms of Use in order for the payment buttons to become live.

Anyone can start earning right away depending on how much advertising you do. As I said before, I have not done a lot of advertising and I still got payments within a few days. Those who really go at it can earn as soon as today.

Automatic Builder isn't just about instant payments. There is a downline builder, a way to make residual commissions(commissions you get every month) and you can add your own favorite websites.

What I Dislike

One thing I don't like about Automatic Builder is that it has one problematic safelist in its downline builder. That is Global Safelist. Do not expect to get paid from Global Safelist, but you can get good traffic from it.

There are a few add-ons that cost monthly, but you do not need them in order to make money with this system. They do have some nice perks, but again, they are not necessary.

My Final Thoughts

My final thoughts are that this is a really great program, especially if you need money in a hurry. It can build you a nice residual income while receiving instant payments which is one of the reasons it has become my favorite program for making money online.

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.
