Rob Ritter's review...
Best Home-Based Business Opportunity Anywhere

My experience with the program so far

I was introduced to Paul Hutchings by a mutual friend on Facebook about 3 years ago now, and had decided to try out their Funnel Building tool as I was working on a few business projects that might benefit from having a good way to build landing pages and other mini websites.

At the time there were a lot of issues with the builder and I was doing a lot of volunteer work in Arizona that took me away from my business activity, so I stepped away for a few months.

As fate would have it a mutual friend introduced me to Paul at a function in Las Vegas where we had talked about many things and I began to have a newfound respect for both Paul and Mike Hobbs and their vision for The Home Business Academy. Long story short, I had looked at several other Funnel Builders and was shocked to find out how expensive they were and was urged to give HBA another look as they had worked out all the bugs in the previous version of the Funnel Builder. And they certainly have!

Although I wasn't particularly interested in the Business Opportunity at the time due to other commitments, I was blown away at the Funnel Builder and how easy and user friendly it was to build literally anything from scratch within an hour or two.

I started attending their trainings and was up to speed on how powerful this system was.

What I Like About The Home Business Academy

The Funnel Builder is phenomenal and is well worth by 10x the $25 price tag monthly. The simplicity of the builder is unlike any other drop and drag tool I've ever seen, and I have used it for many projects in multiple businesses over the last few years.

The trainings within the HBA are short and concise and easy to understand and put into practice from the very beginning. And the premium live trainings are where you can literally ask questions and have them answered by Paul, Mike, and many other members of The Home Business Academy who are like family once you get to know them.

The most amazing thing to me about this opportunity is the fact that they pay a whopping 80% commission on every sale you make!

The access to the community is also something that cannot be quantified because the mentorship and answers are literally minutes away.

What I dislike About HBA

To be honest, the only thing I don't like about The Home Business Academy is the fact that the ease of use of the Funnel Builder has spoiled me so much that I find it excruciatingly difficult to use anything else.

Final Verdict

The ethics of everyone at the company are unlike any other company I've ever been involved with. And the daily, weekly and monthly motivation, training and skills you will receive can and will change your life for the better no matter what your current skill level is.

If you're looking for a solid business opportunity with an incredibly low start up cost that can have you in profit with only 2 sales with an unlimited income potential, then you owe it to yourself to take a look. No matter what you're promoting this small investment in your business will pay dividends for years to come. I couldn't recommend anything as highly as I do The Home Business Academy.

Howlin Mike Howell's review...
My experience with this program:

I probably failed over 50 different online business opportunities before trying Secrets of The Big Dogs.

It was a game changer for me!

This is how I made my first sales and commissions; and I still make sales with it today and use the foundational tactics that I gained. It was a great online marketing boot camp!

This is a must if you're interested in affiliate and email marketing. It provides the necessary know-how to make it work.

You will use this as long as you do online business!

What I like:

The beauty of this $7.00 e-book?

It gives you real and doable "secrets" that the top marketers use every day.

You will learn how to get:

  • Plenty of real traffic to whatever opportunity you want.
  • Multiple sources of income through promoting one link.
  • A time-saving strategy (Adapt it to your business! )
  • Apply the necessary email and affiliate marketing tactics.

If you have zero online marketing experience, with a reasonable effort - using these strategies you should have success or at least find out if you really have the willpower to make it happen.

Internet Marketing is a fast-flowing river of constant change and can be frustrating. However, this valuable biz-smart info will clear any confusion.

It breaks down all the hype that distorts the truth about making $ online!

This is not another Shiney Toy promise... It reveals strategies that really work!

What I dislike:

This is jam packed with about everything you need to know about the basics of Internet Marketing, however; one extremely important subject is left out!

... It deals with lead generation and mailing lists. Since the ceo of the website handles this task, he doesn't focus on it.

But you will eventually need this skill. In fact, every seasoned marketer knows starting your own mailing list is important for success. Perhaps he sees this as an advanced skill.

Secondly, there is no video training. However, this is probably to keep everything as simple as possible.

My final verdict:

You're Not going to be an instant millionaire with this, but with consistent effort you have the potential to make a modest $2000 a month, or with serious focus, you can make a possible six-figure income.

It will provide the mindset to go to the next level.

This is the "Bible" for email/affiliate marketing, and I highly recommend it for every newbie or person who may be frustrated online.

These are foundational basics every successful marketer must know!

Dolores Boyd's review...
I've tried other marketing sites , but nothing compares to the many ways that you can promote your business with LeadsLeap. Since becoming a Pro member, I have gained even more benefits. Everything is explained, which makes the site easy to use.

Just follow all the steps that the detailed tutorials provide and are available to guide you each step of the way.

LeadsLeap just keeps getting better, and you can join free! I upgraded To Pro to receive even more benefits.

There are so many ways of promoting your business with all the free tools that are provided. Some are listed below.

The Link Tracker, The List Manager, The Page Builder, The Popup Creator and more

The Listed Menu on the side, makes it so easy to find everything you need and be able to locate your signups and see exactly how much traffic you are receiving for your promotions. This Is great, because you can know if your offers are really being seen.

Honestly, I'm so happy I went Pro. The results have been amazing, and LeadsLeap is a great place for me to market my business. I highly recommend you use this platform for promoting your business !

Beverly Taylor's review...
My experience with the program so far

I've been a member then a lifetime member of Big Product Store for many, many years (I don't remember how many, but perhaps 10 years). Out of all the PLR programs I've used, this is my favorite. BigProductStore has a huge library of PLR products, including eBooks, video courses, software, graphics, and more. If you're looking to add content to your blog, offer bonuses for your affiliate promotions, or resell products for a profit, BigProductStore has something for everyone.

What I Like

One thing I like is that they add new PLR assets daily. Also, I can search for everything from their whole history (not like some PLR services that only show the most recent month or so). I love that there is such a huge library that I can always find something for my needs. As they have assets for virtually every niche, I've been able to find multiple choices every time I search. You can search by a keyword and/or by type of asset.

What I Dislike

I like everything, but I would prefer a small change. While they do tell you the main licensing, sometimes you need to download it to find out all of the licensing details.

Final Verdict

If you need any PLR or any content for anything, I highly recommend this. BigProductStore is, in my opinion, the best PLR membership site available today. You'll gain access to a wealth of resources that can help you grow your business, save time, and increase your profits.

Costas Alba's review...
The Ultimate List System isn't just another list-building tool; it's a complete ecosystem. Whether you're an experienced marketer or someone just starting their journey, the platform's approach is both innovative and user-friendly. I was introduced to ULS by Constantinos Albanidis, whose recommendations were a big part of my decision to explore this opportunity. His curated links highlighted AI tools, ready-to-use email list platforms, and other invaluable resources that perfectly complemented what ULS had to offer.

My Experience So Far

From the moment I landed on the site, the first thing that caught my attention was the promise of being 'completely set up and ready to go in just 10 minutes. ' That alone was a breath of fresh air in an industry where complexity often deters newcomers. True to its word, the setup was seamless. The interface is straightforward, making it easy to navigate through the features and get started immediately.

What truly stands out is how the system is designed to put you first. Unlike traditional platforms where you often feel like just another cog in the wheel, ULS ensures that referrals join your list first. This unique approach helps you focus on building your own brand and audience from the get-go, rather than simply promoting someone else's agenda.

Within the first week of using the platform, I started seeing results. The tools and tips provided weren't just theoretical—they were actionable, allowing me to apply them immediately. The '100 successful list-building tips' was a goldmine of insights, each one practical and tailored to real-world scenarios. Combined with the autoresponder tips, I felt like I had finally found a system that wasn't just about giving me tools but teaching me how to use them effectively.

What I Like

  • Referrals Join YOUR List First: This is a game-changer. The system prioritizes your growth, ensuring that your efforts directly benefit your own list rather than someone else's.
  • Comprehensive Resources: From autoresponder tricks to actionable list-building tips, the wealth of knowledge on offer is unparalleled. It's not just about what to do but how to do it effectively.
  • User-Friendly Interface: The platform's design is clean and intuitive, making it accessible for beginners while still robust enough for seasoned marketers.
  • Integrated Marketing Support: The curated links provided by Constantinos Albanidis complement the system beautifully, offering additional tools and platforms to amplify your marketing efforts.
  • Completely Free: In a world where everything comes with a price tag, finding a tool this powerful at no cost feels like striking gold.

What I Dislike

  • Limited Customization Options: While the platform offers plenty of features, some of the tools feel a bit rigid. Adding more flexibility for advanced users would make it even more appealing.
  • Steep Learning Curve for Beginners: Despite the straightforward interface, the sheer amount of information can feel overwhelming for someone entirely new to list building. A step-by-step tutorial or guided onboarding process would be a welcome addition.
  • Dependency on Referrals: While the focus on building your list is fantastic, the system's success heavily relies on referrals. This could be a drawback for those who struggle with outreach or aren't comfortable in networking scenarios.

Final Verdict

The Ultimate List System is a hidden gem in the world of email marketing. It combines simplicity with powerful tools, making it an ideal choice for anyone serious about building their list and growing their online presence. The platform's focus on putting you first, coupled with the invaluable resources provided, creates an experience that is both rewarding and empowering.

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.
