I hate when a promotional video starts playing as soon as I land on a page and there is no way to stop that f..ing thing. And that is what happened when I landed on this site that promises to teach you three business models to make money and live a dream life style. The three business models are
1. Opt-in. You collect email addresses of people and start sending offers almost everyday hoping at least 1% people will buy something from you.
2. Blog – Make fake blogs stuffed with links to affiliate products.
3. Review site – Pretend to be an impartial reviewer who reviews products and gives fair recommendations. However, all your recommendations will be to affiliate products you are promoting.
I got this info in my email from Mark Ling who has his own affiliate teaching program. Apparently, he also promotes other offers where he takes a commission.
Ok, now to this course. Of course the promoter is using one of the business model mentioned earlier. The loud f..ing video will ask you to sign up using your email address. And we all know why they need that email address. So that they can flood your inbox with other offers.
But this guy has a new twist to his email collection model. He is appealing to your charitable nature by telling you that when someone signs up for his course, he will donate $1 to some fund for underprivileged children. Supporting a great cause. Who can say no. It does not cost you anything to sign up.
But I don’t understand why he simply cannot donate the money? Why he need you to sign up for donating money. What your signing up with his teaching of how to make fake review sites has to do with donating money for the underprivileged children?
So, if you want to sign up for his course and help him donate money (I still don’t see the connection), please do so. Oops, I forgot to give you the URL. Just ask for the URL in the comment section.
