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

Hello and welcome to my review on Affiliate One. In this review, I am going to delve into the Affiliate One system and talk about the various things they offer. Now I will mention if you are an extra information hog and like lots of information then this is perfect for you. Why I say that is because the advice and ideas you get inside the system are extremely useful especially if you are looking for some new ways of marketing or even just finding out other traffic sources... Well you get the picture Affiliate One offers that.

I really think that as marketers we should always learn things the further into the business we go. Ditch the things that don't work and keep the things that do. Maybe something won't work for you but if it doesn't at least you can put it on the back burner for now and keep it in mind for a time when you find something that the specific strategy will work or whatever.

I am an information hog so I love to gather information and though I may not use it right now most of the information I have gotten over the past year and a half has always in some way shape or form given me an AHA moment and if it didn't then it does later on.

Now, Affiliate One. In this system, they provide you with the normal average details. (Now again you may know how to make a landing page or use an autoresponder but the way they do things may give you more ideas. ) What I mean by average I mean we should all know how to create a squeeze page (If you do not and you haven't created one I have to ask... What Are You Doing! ? Go make that squeeze page because THE MONEY IS IN THE LIST! )They also teach you the normal basics like creating the Thank you page and so on. They give autoresponder training and so on.

They also teach you within the system another way to do follow-up emails and so on. This is the perfect low-cost course if you want to learn extra details on things like that because maybe you just want more ideas for creating follow-ups or more ideas for creating landing pages.

I like any information that I can add to my business so that I can get the best experience possible and that's why I say it's almost best to be an information hog.

They go in-depth on things like creating a rotator, and even how to CLEAN YOUR LIST! I will say right now... To anyone who doesn't clean their list, you are doing it wrong... I say this because to improve open rates, click rates and much more YOU MUST BE CLEANING YOUR LIST UP! . It is like washing your dirty laundry on Laundry Day... If you aren't doing this you will NOT see open rates of 60-70% you will see 10-20% which is horrible. So you must be cleaning the list!

Good details inside this gem so far. Then they go into traffic. Now they explain one source of traffic that I do like and from a website that I like that is called Udimi... If you do not use Udimi you can get the perfect information inside of Affiliate One on how to use Udimi with ease and how to find perfect vendors for your traffic. Trust me it is a breeze once you figure it out. I find the best vendors now on Udimi because of the learning inside of Affiliate One and I got this info from them last year.

They do delve into other traffic sources as well.

They offer 5 great bonuses that include some extra training like how to make 10k in 30 days, (Which for some people can be the case but you need to understand that the results are not typical which means it cannot be guaranteed... No one can guarantee that and you are kidding yourself if you think it can be promised or you are looking for that magic pill that makes you that much every day. So some people will have that result but not everyone can have that result either way it's a free bonus. It is always good to have extra case studies too. ) They offer a bonus funnel, they offer something called the QuickFire Commission Method, and they offer follow-up email swipes and guaranteed approval to promote affiliate one should you choose.

They also have support and various other things.

I did learn quite a bit myself from this and at the very most think that extra information even if you think you know everything about the above things I mentioned you should still acquire information as it is always good because maybe you'll find a hidden nugget inside that can be added to what you are already doing. For me, it was promotions and learning other traffic sources.

What I Like

  • I like the bite-sized training they offer. Many great pieces of information that can be used to give you more understanding of this online terrain.
  • Great support
  • Great email swipes
  • Great Ideas and various things that you need to look out for in the business.

What I Dislike

Now one thing I did dislike was the fact that when I went to set up the bonus funnel they asked you to get ClickFunnels. I am sorry in advance to the people who stand behind ClickFunnels but for the price you are paying for ClickFunnels, I don't think it is worth it... I think maybe Russel Brunson is onto something with click funnels but it is not my cup of tea and honestly I have WAY cheaper alternatives that I use that don't require 90 dollars a month...

That is really my only dislike as the training was all very well put together but unless you already have clickfunnels or have been thinking about getting it then the bonus super funnel will be good for you however in order to use the super bonus funnel you need ClickFunnels.

So that gets rid of one of your bonuses if you don't want to get ClickFunnels which is unfortunate but other than that the training was good.

Final Verdict

My final verdict? Well, I think it is well worth the price to get some extra information and who knows maybe some hidden techniques inside the system will give you an even greater knowledge about how to make it in this online business world. It gave me lots of information when starting out.

It wasn't the main course I took that got me started in AM but it was definitely extra information while building my business that I needed to hear as I was still putting certain things together and just looking for more information on where I could go to get traffic and whatnot.

This course can be a great starting point for many beginners too. For 16 dollars you get to learn the business and get a round-about idea of how it is done.

I think it is worth it and I think the pros outweigh the cons. Thanks for reading and I hope it gave you some information on this system and I hope that if you decide to get it, it will be as helpful to you as it was to me! Have an awesome day!

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.

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.

Herbert Flores's review...
My experience with AutoShorts.ai so far has been incredibly impressive, with its seamless automation and customization features making content creation a breeze. It's truly a game-changer in the digital marketing landscape.

AutoShorts.ai is a groundbreaking platform that leverages advanced algorithms to create unique and customized faceless videos, tailored to your specific topic. The beauty of this service lies in its simplicity and automation. Once you've set your preferences and input your topic, AutoShorts.ai takes over, creating engaging videos that are ready to be shared with your audience.

The primary feature of AutoShorts.ai is its ability to create faceless videos. This means that the videos generated do not require a presenter or spokesperson. This is a game-changer for businesses that may not have the resources or desire to feature individuals in their videos. It allows for a focus on the content, rather than the presenter, ensuring your message is front and center.

The customization options offered by AutoShorts.ai are impressive. The platform allows you to tailor your videos to your specific needs, ensuring that each video is unique and aligns with your brand's voice and aesthetic. This level of customization is invaluable in creating a cohesive and recognizable brand image.

Perhaps the most significant advantage of AutoShorts.ai is its ability to operate on auto-pilot. Once your preferences are set, AutoShorts.ai automatically creates, schedules, and posts your videos, freeing up valuable time that can be spent on other aspects of your business. This level of automation is a boon for any business looking to optimize their content strategy.

What I Like

What I like about AutoShorts.ai is how easy it is to use and how quickly I can create a short video in just minutes! It's a time-saving solution that allows me to focus on other aspects of my business while still producing engaging and customized content for my audience.

What I Dislike

While AutoShorts.ai offers a user-friendly experience and the ability to create short videos quickly, there are a few aspects that I find less favorable. One limitation is that the free version only allows for the creation of one series and posting it once, with a watermark included. However, I discovered a workaround by cropping the video to remove the watermark.

On the bright side, AutoShorts.ai offers affordable subscription options that provide more flexibility and features. The starter package, priced at only $19, allows for posting three times a week, creating one series, auto-posting to channels, editing and previewing videos, adding background music, and downloading videos without any watermark. This subscription package offers great value for those looking to enhance their content strategy without breaking the bank.

Final Verdict

AutoShorts.ai is a game-changer in the world of video content creation. Its user-friendly interface, customization options, and automation features make it an invaluable tool for businesses and individuals looking to optimize their content strategy. While the free version has limitations, the affordable subscription packages provide access to a wide range of features and benefits. Embrace AutoShorts.ai and streamline your video content creation effortlessly.

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.

Char 's review...
What is ClickEngine?

ClickEngine is like a friendly traffic assistant for websites. It helps boost your online visitors without you having to do much. You just share your link, and ClickEngine takes care of the rest, making it super easy for anyone looking to get noticed online.

My Experience with the Program So Far

My time with ClickEngine has been pretty awesome. It's kept its promise by sending lots of visitors to the links I shared. I got over 50 new people joining my email list, and one link even made me $150 in affiliate sales from ClickEngine. The cool part is that these sales keep coming in regularly, showing that ClickEngine is making lots of people happy.

ClickEngine is more than just a traffic tool. It's got a bunch of useful training and tips in the back office, teaching you how to make the most of ClickEngine's traffic and grow your email list. Plus, you can earn from different offers by Jeff, the person behind ClickEngine.

What I Like

What stands out in ClickEngine is the person who created it, Jeff Aman. I've been following him for a while, and he knows his stuff. ClickEngine also throws in eight bonuses when you join, and the affiliate program pays you 50%, which is pretty good. If you want more traffic, there's an option to double it with a small one-time payment.

ClickEngine doesn't just talk the talk; it walks the walk. Jeff has put in a lot of effort to make it a top-notch product. They even let you change your affiliate offers anytime with a link-tracking feature. The tutorials are super easy to follow, making ClickEngine a good fit for any business level.

What I Dislike

Well, the only tiny thing is that Jeff sends quite a few emails with offers. But hey, that's how these things work. Honestly, I can't think of anything bad to say.

Final Verdict

So, in a nutshell, ClickEngine has been a real help in my online business. Jeff Aman has made something that's simple and works well, bringing in steady traffic at a price that won't break the bank. With a strong affiliate program and consistent good results, I'd say it's worth taking advantage of the current low subscription price. Now is a great time to check out ClickEngine and give your online marketing a boost.
