My Lead Gen Secret – My Honest Insider Review

February 20, 2021 annareviews2 1 Comment

Hi, I’m Anna.

When I first stumbled upon My Lead Gen Secret there were not many reviews out at the time (they had just launched) so I paid in full so I could see what the service is like and what it really is. Currently, My Lead Gen Secret does not offer a free trial. The fee is $1/day, paid for 30 days upfront plus a $30 setup fee. There’s no catch or contract – so you can decide if it’s right for you without risking a bunch of your hard earned money.

What is My Lead Gen Secret?

My Lead Gen Secret (MLGS) is a lead service and training center. Founded by Jim Harmon, My Lead Gen Secret has quickly become the most reputable and highest-rated advertising method for affiliate marketers trying to learn the ropes of online business and digital marketing.

Whenever I talk to someone about My Lead Gen Secret – I always start by saying its not just some money making scheme, or pyramid scam. So what is My Lead Gen Secret? My Lead Gen Secret is first of all a lead service. If you think you will start making money by simply joining MLGS – I would suggest you walk away, it’s not how this works. You have to WORK the leads they give you. This means writing emails to them and sending these emails from within the members area. My Lead Gen secret does not sell hype or false promises, it doesn’t promise to make you rich overnight and it sure doesn’t promise you a shortcut to overnight millions. However, My Lead Gen Secret does give you 100 of the best converting business opportunity leads I have personally converted sales with. If you are willing to work these leads – then keep reading.

My Lead Gen Secret Pros vs. Cons

Pros:

100 high-converting business opportunity leads (every single day)
Can-Spam compliant mailing platform (free)
Clear Plan of Action
All levels of training – Beginner and Advanced
Video training, Step-by-step Tutorials and Courses
100’s of community members
Live & Interactive Help from Jim Harmon and expert members
A strict spam free environment.
No up-sells, ever.
$1/day Membership. Yes, only $1/day plus a one time setup fee of $30!

Cons:

The leads need to be mailed by YOU. You don’t just join and make money. It does require you compose emails to them.
The mailing platform in the members area has less features that popular mailing platforms like Aweber and Mailchimp.
The service is not free. The charge is minimal and well worth the cost, but this is not free advertising.

Is My Lead Gen Secret for You?

I must admit that MLGS is not a perfect choise for everyone. My Lead Gen Secret gives you business opportunity leads and trains you how to best convert them, but you MUST have an offer or opportunity to promote to them. This means you must have your own website or an affiliate website to promote. If you aren’t involved with an opportunity you can always join Clickbank and promote one of their hoplinks until you join a different opportunity or offer and have a different link to promote. If you aren’t willing to lean and take action with the leads, then making money online isn’t for you. So who can really benefit from this program?

A person who wants to make an extra income to supplement their salary.
Stay at home moms and dads who have some free time and are willing to spend it in front of the computer.
Students who want to make money to help them pay for their tuition, some college students built 6-figure businesses from their dorm, using My Lead Gen Secret.
Business owners who want to get more visibility online.
Retired folks who have free time and want to supplement their pension.
People who are fed up of 9-to-5 and want to start their own business. Many My Lead Gen Secret members have been able to quit their “day job” to do online marketing full time (I fall into this category)

As you can see, My Lead Gen Secret is a great choice for anyone who is wanting to earn extra money, however you must understand that you have to invest your time and effort to work these leads. This program will teach you email writing skills to increase your CTR and conversions for any business, online or offline offer, but it requires an investment of time, effort and a small amount of money. The big difference between starting an online business instead of a traditional brick and mortal business is that you do not need a start-up capital to get started online. The benefit of using My Lead Gen Secret leads is that you don’t have to buy them yourself, which would cost you $10-$100 per lead. You only need $1/day to use My Lead Gen Secret, which ANY marketer can afford. The fee includes 3000 leads per month, a can-spam mailing platform and a variety of email marketing training videos. You also get all the presonal support you need to succeed.

Update: My Lead Gen Secret is now just $1 to join! (Join now)

The program has 1 membership level – Just $1/day for 100 business opportunity leads per day. This is really awesome because you can join without spending a huge amount of money, look around, get help from the team writing your email ads, make money from promoting your offers to the leads, and if you like it, remain a member for as long as you like!

How much does My Lead Gen Secret cost?

There is only 1 membership level within My Lead Gen Secret. The fee is only $1/day, paid 30 days upfront plus a $30 setup fee. Ther are no other hidden fees or costs involved with the service.

My Lead Gen Secret Live Video Classes

This part of My Lead Gen Secret has become one of my favorite. Every single week MLGS offers a live video class where you can learn something very specific about converting the leads in your account, into sales in your programs. During this video class you also get access to live chat where you can ask questions and communicate with other members.

These live classes touch on different subjects that are relevant and important today. One of the reasons I am still a member of My Lead Gen Secret is because I am able to keep on learning new email conversion tecniques to go along with the leads I am getting. Members of My Lead Gen Secret do NOT get left behind 🙂

Overall My Lead Gen Secret ranks at a very respectable 98%! Most paid programs can’t offer that but here you can get it without spending a dime.

I Am Living Proof My Lead Gen Secret Works

So you’re probably wondering how much I am making with my My Lead Gen Secret leads. To be honest, I earn MANY times my monthly membership fee back. This month I have earned over $1200 in sales from my leads, up from $850 last month. I am basically earning more and more each month I continue to use the service. The leads keep growing by 100 per day, so over time I have niced my income grow with the leads, which only makes sense!

I highly recommend Jim Harmon’s My Lead Gen Secret. The support is great. The training is great and the leads make me money. What more could you ask for?

Newspapers ALIVE

A Review of Newspapers Alive: Inside the Member’s Area

May 26, 2017 annareviews2 1 Comment

Over the years, I have tried countless different lead generation systems in hopes of boosting my home business, and I must say that it has been something of a hit and miss journey. With the programs that failed, part of the problem was down to me believing in the hype, while other times it had to do with relying a little too heavily on reviews that were, in hindsight, lacking in detail. I have recently started using a program called Newspapers Alive, and I am delighted with how things have been going right from the start. I started this review with the idea of posting my numbers and telling you how wonderful life is, but I realized that this would be everything I hate about online reviews. With that in mind, I have decided to pull back the curtain and take you inside the member’s area of NPA, just to give you an idea of what you are in for should you decide to sign up.

Getting Started with Newspapers Alive

Before I get into the details, let me take a moment to explain how I discovered the site, as well as what prompted me to get started. I was referred to Newspapers Alive by a fellow online marketer that I have been friends with for quite some time. Since we sell in completely different niches, we are quick to share solid tips and programs with one another when we come across them. He raved about NPA, but I honestly wasn’t sold. I’ve believed that newspapers are a dying breed, and that spending money to advertise in them would be a waste. My friend said that he felt the same way, and in order to convince me, gave me his login details so that I could have a look inside the member’s area. It’s what I saw in there that sold me, and it’s what I am going to reveal to all of you.

The first thing that you need to do is decide which membership package best suits your needs and budget. There are 3 to choose from, each with a different price point and expected number of daily visitors. Details of the packages are as follows:

Package 1 – $60/mo. – 200-250 visitors per day
Package 2 – $125/mo. – 450-550 visitors per day
Package 3 – $399/mo. – 1,800 – 2,200 visitors per day

Each of the packages are only available in limited quantities, which helps ensure that everyone gets the visitors they are promised, so you may need to keep checking in of the package you want is currently sold out.

There were a couple of each still available when I decided to sign up, but I played it safe by opting for Package 1. It fit within my advertising budget, and also gave me enough daily visitors for me to fairly test out how well the program worked. The next step for me was to sign in and get to the member’s area, which I had already previewed thanks to my friend. I am now going to share that information with you guys.

What’s Inside the Members Area?

I am going to tell you as much as possible about the program and the member’s area in the limited space that I have here, but for a more in-depth breakdown, I really recommend that you watch the video that is uploaded in your dashboard. It will tell you everything that you need to know about NPA, and should answer any questions that you have about getting started.

What you will learn there, before getting to the nuts and bolts of setting up your fist campaign, is how the whole program works in the first place. The video goes into much more detail, but I’ll give you the abridged version. Newspaper Alive have created no less than 128 domains names, all of which are relevant to the home business niche. These ads are then blasted out to newspapers all across the country, and when a reader enters the URL they see in the ad, they are taken to one of the sites listed by an NPA member. It’s really quite simple how it all works, and that is what makes it so brilliant.

Once you have watched the video, which I recommend doing a couple of times so that you don’t miss anything, it’s time to go to work, which involves making some decisions. The first thing that you are going to do is select the regions where you would like your ad to run. There are 10 different zones to choose from, all of which are displayed on an easy to read map of the US displayed in the member’s area. This is great if you feel that the offer you are trying to sell will be more appealing to people in a specific part of the country. You can select three different regions when you start your campaign, and can change them out at any time. I’ll get into more detail about that later in this piece.

Once you have your regions selected, the next step is to set up an offer page that outlines the details of what it is you are trying to sell. Setting up the page is incredibly easy, and is done via a WYSIWYG layout where you can get creative with texts and images. The beauty here is that it’s easy to set up even if you aren’t particularly savvy with these types of things. You can literally have your offer page set-up and rolled out in a matter of minutes. You can preview how your page will look before hitting “Save” and sending your ad out into the regions you selected.

Once you have done that, your hard work, if we can really call it that, is over. All you need to do now is see how your offer page is performing, which is done by clicking on the “Track Campaign” link on the left-hand side of the dashboard page. You will see your numbers displayed as a graph, as well as a in a table form, with the number of offer page visits from each of your zones clearly shown and easy to read. Seeing these numbers comes in really handy, as you very quickly get an idea of how well each of your chosen zones is performing. If you think that one or more of the zones is not performing as well as you had hoped, you can change them out for a different one. These graphs also help you see that you are actually getting the number of visitors you were promised as per the details of your package. It’s also a good idea to use a link to your actual page that can be tracked, as you can then see how many people clicked through after they arrived at your offer page.

A Quick Note About Referrals

While the vast majority of you who choose to sign up for NPA will be doing so to promote a product or affiliate page, it is worth mentioning that you can also make money by referring others to the program. You are given a unique affiliate link to promote, and the great thing here is that your link will be used as your offer page until you get something else set up. There is an area on the member’s page where you can get all the details about the NPA affiliate program, as well as a link that will show you how well you are performing, and how much you have earned in commissions. Once you hit $30 in commissions, you can cash-out, using several different payment options.

Also, when you refer three active NPA members, you will receive bonus traffic from within Canada…roughly 100-150 extra visitors per day from our friends in the north.

Getting started is a 4-step process that begins with signing up and ends with checking your stats on a regular basis. It really shouldn’t take you any longer than a half hour to get rolling, although you may want to spend a little extra time setting up your offer page to look just right. I’m a little picky with the details, so I did take a little longer to get my page looking just right. The next thing for me was sitting back and waiting to see if I had made the right decisions in choosing my zones. I got the answer to that pretty quickly.

My Experience with Newspapers Alive

Over the years, I have promoted several different products, the majority of which I have picked from Clickbank. For the most part, I have stuck with the health and fitness products, as these are items that are always in demand. What I try to do is look for products that give the user the opportunity to sign up to a member’s site after they have downloaded and read the information they purchased on Clickbank. I prefer these, because you get the affiliate earnings for the initial download, and then monthly commissions for as long as those people continue to stay with the program. It was one of these types of products that I chose for my first campaign on NPA.

As I mentioned earlier, I took a little extra time to set up my offer page, but before I got to that, I had to decide which regions would be the best for my offer. Since the product that I had chosen was one aimed at folks looking to lose weight, I decided to try and do a little research before setting my regions. I did a Google search to find out which states had the highest percentage of obese residents, and I then based my picks on that information. I also decided to add the region that included California, as I know that looks are important to many people out in that state.

When I completed my offer page, I used bit.ly to create a shorter link to my Clickbank product page, which would also help me track how many people clicked through. I also added my email address to the offer page so that people could contact me directly if they had any questions about the product or the membership upgrade that comes with it.

Through the first week, the California region proved to be a bit of a bust. I was getting a lot of visitors, but not much in the way of click-throughs. The other two regions performed really well, though, and I generated a couple of product sales, as well as a few people who contacted me looking for more info. Things really picked up when I added a new region based on my research. By the end of my first month, I had 12 sales and 1 upgrade, as well as a promise from 1 more person to upgrade once they got finished with the e-book. I was well in profit, and decided to let my membership to NPA carry over for another month, which is where I am at right now.

Conclusion

I am honestly delighted with my first month at Newspapers Alive, as well as how easy it is to use. After testing it thoroughly during this time I am completely ready to swing from the rafters and declare it to be brilliant. I am also VERY optimistic, as my second month has started in much the same vein as my first. I am considering trying another product, just to see if the positive results continue. I will try to keep you all updated on my progress, and I am here to answer and questions about NPA that you guys may have.

Is Organic Prospects Really Worth it? Does It Really Work – 2015 Review

July 1, 2015 annareviews2 2 Comments

Update 7/04/15: This was initially an unbiased review of what I have found, I have since updated it below with my additional findings.

So, Does Organic Prospects Work, Or Is It A Scam?

Click here to read comments from other readers!

Before starting this review I did a lot of searching and didn’t see any examples of any substantial complaints that seemed substantiated. For the savvy person on the internet, it can be pretty easy to spot the scams, but in this day and age they have become harder to spot; plenty of companies put on a great face for incoming customers, then they flip the script once you sign up. The point is, there are so many get rich quick schemes and marketing tools that seem too good to be true.

When I see most of these new (or in this case, newly popular) companies popping up, my scam radar is usually in full force. Ultimately, I find that about 75% of these new marketing companies that pop up are ultimately scams—or just wildly unsuccessful for their customers. However,Organic Prospects didn’t set any red flags off to me; not with their concept, their promises to customers, or their history.

Keep reading to see how I came to my conclusion!

How It Works

Organic Prospects has a business model that I could easily understand. Their mission isn’t completely convoluted by evasive marketing language or the “shiny ball” technique that makes you ignore the fact that you don’t know what a company does because you’re so distracted by a loud website and big promises. Organic Prospects is in the business of delivering quality prospects to their customers each and every day. Business prospects that will find the products or services of your home business attractive.

Organic Prospects utilizes a four step system in which they collect prospects for their customers.

Step 1: Acquire – They search the most popular social media sites for quality prospects who are highly engaged and the best possible candidates for their clients.

Step 2: Grade – They use a proprietary grading system that gauges interest level of prospects from 0 to 100.

Step 3: Filter – They rank all of the prospects in order of assigned percentage received in the last step and sort out all of the prospects graded below75.

Step 4: Distribute – Every Organic Prospects client receives a list of 70 high ranking prospects each day that they can view, download, and contact.

The next steps are up to you; you can contact your prospects through the Organic Prospects mailer tool, on your own, or through a different third party mailer system if you choose. That means there are still some other things to consider.

What are you going to send to your prospects?
What will you say?
Will you include tracking links or special offers exclusive to these prospects?
At what frequency will you contact your prospects?
Will you keep all of these prospects on your mailing list, or just some?
Will you use an introduction email on all of your new prospects and send additional offers later?
Is your website prepared for more new visitors?

And of course, after making these considerations, you’ll want to give yourself the time to generate these messages and to determine how you want to manage these mailings. You’ll need to make sure your website or store is looking good, since you’ll likely be directing your prospects to visit.

Ultimately, you need to make sure you already have a healthy business with a functional and attractive website, as well as some well-written content to send your prospects. This is by no means the first step in creating your business.

If you want to attract people to your business, its not just about finding the right people, but BEING the right business. If you want to join, and you haven’t considered any of that, you might be wasting your time (although you can download those prospects for a later date). To me, this is the first sign that Organic Prospects is a concept that you can trust; they aren’t just going to deliver a high-functioning business to you. There are other services out there that can, but they don’t promise to be full-service; this isn’t your only measure for success.

I’ve heard of other companies that do something similar, but I’ve found some major differences between Organic Prospects and the other companies…

What Makes Organic Prospects Different

Other companies run marketing businesses with a similar model: you pay us, we give you prospects. The trouble with that is that they aren’t as selective, exclusive, or innovative. Allow me to explain.

Organic Prospects promises exclusivity. This means you are receiving prospects that nobody else signed up for their service is getting. When you sign up and give them your $30 setup fee, this is where they custom fit the prospects to your business type and your audience. This is where they help implement a unique client profile for you that ensures that not only are you getting prospects that nobody else receives, but also that they are really well suited to your needs.

This company is the only one using their innovative process and uses those four steps to be really picky on your behalf. They have created tools that help them to choose the best prospects, including a method that helps them rate your potential prospects from 0-100 in genuine interest and overall quality.

This is a step a lot of companies skip. After all, isn’t just collecting prospects that might be sort of interested enough? Organic Prospects doesn’t agree with that. While other companies might promise hundreds of prospects a day, they aren’t as strict with which ones make it to the distribution stage. Thanks to Organic Prospects proprietary tools, they are able to add two steps that many companies skip; grading and filtering. With other programs, you’re more than likely paying for a two step process; acquire and distribute. In my experience, that isn’t enough.

And lastly, Organic Prospects is incredibly selective. They send you 70 prospects daily because they’ve really gone through and made sure those are the best prospects that they can offer. This isn’t a company that is willing to drop their standards and send you hundreds of prospects that haven’t been properly selected. They want to give their customers at least 80% US prospects (with the remaining 20% or fewer living in Canada, the UK, and Australia) which is something many other companies don’t do. Because they have innovative and powerful technology, Organic Prospects gets to be more selective than others in the market.

Other Benefits of Joining

Access to the Organic Mailer and all of the analytic tools that come with it
Easy access to customer support – opening a ticket and getting a personalized response is easy. You can easily check the status of a ticket.
A catalog of FAQs and knowledge base section
Simple membership tools to change your account type

My Conclusion

From the member feedback I’ve read and seen videos on, I can conclude that Organic Prospects is legitimate and is delivering on what they promise. I’ve read no reports of billing issues, extra charges, or cancellation issues. Their billing portal is secure and encrypted, so no red flags there for overall safety. From all of the information I’ve collected, I’ve deemed this company to be safe and free of scams or danger to consumers.

UPDATE

I have decided to join Organic Prospects as of 4/29/15 and now that I am 60 days into my membership, I wanted to share an update.

So far, the conclusion I reached earlier has been accurate. I have seen great results from the high quality prospects I have been receiving daily and have seen huge improvements in the responses to my mailings. I’ve seen many new customers, new subscribers, and an increasing number of hits to my website.

I can safely say that Organic Prospects is effective, worth the money, and delivering every bit of what they say that they will. Member resources are even better than expected, and my 5/5 rating in all areas remains.
