If you are in the business of making money online, you’ve probably heard of a highly publicized program called “Get More Buyers” by Michael Rasmussen. I was curious hearing all the hype about Get More Buyers, as well as Michael Rasmussen’s newsletters urging to “buy now won’t last” which is a recognized strategy of someone who has been in the business of making money online for even a short period of time. It works like this, “Buy now at this price or we’ll increase the price tomorrow and when you wake up in the morning it won’t be there.” Or, “You will only see this page once, so act now!” which is total BS because all you need to do to see this page again is copy and save the url and you can see this special “one time offer” every day of your life if you like.
Now, I’ve just started reading Get More Buyers, and I am not offering you to buy Get More Buyers through my ClickBank affiliate link, because I am not a complete idiot and I understand that if I try to sell something to other affiliates, I am wasting my time. Those who may be interested in Michael Rasmussen’s Get More Buyers are perfectly happy using their own affiliate links to buy Get More Buyers for their own use. I really don’t understand why there are so many reviews for this book. Get More Buyers is an expensive ClickBank product. Not to mention, Michael Rasmussen’s success in online marketing and his obvious connections in this industry is what has made Get More Buyers so popular and credible. However, Get More Buyers in my opinion while being a legitimate product has major downside and flawed core.
I will explain this in a moment. See, Michael Rasmussen is an Internet marketer. Thus his product is based on Michael’s knowledge of this narrow niche which is what makes his product completely useless for those who do not target affiliate marketers as their buyers. Michael sells to online marketers. There is nothing that I have read in Get More Buyers so far (I apologize if I am mistaking about this) that teaches how to sell to those who are NOT Internet marketers.
Example: one of the advanced strategies technique is based on merely selling to future potential affiliates for that same exact product you are trying to sell. Enough said, I won’t tell you the exact “secrets”, but based on that, the whole strategy of Get More Buyers is built around the fact that your buyers are in the affiliate marketing and is based on growing your affiliate base from your buyers.
Excuse me, but this does not work for me. I do not sell to other online marketers, thus I cannot even start implementing these strategies, because they actually start with selling to future affiliates. I am sorry to say that but the niche I am in is simply not interested in ever becoming Internet marketers, thus I cannot approach other Internet marketers asking them to buy the “cheap product” I am offering because they are not interested in buying it merely because my product is NOT about how to make money online. By the same token my actual buyers are mostly career people, in their thirties, forties, and fifties who have jobs and are not interested in becoming online marketers. Thus I cannot possibly turn my buyers into promoters of my product.
One last thing, if I wanted to make a use out of Michael’s product, I’d have to become a Make-Money-Online type Internet marketer. And then, of course, Michael is encouraging us to become affiliates for his Get More Buyers book and sell it. I really don’t understand why someone would miss an opportunity to grab an affiliate link to Michael’s book BEFORE buying it. If you are that stupid that you don’t even realize that you should buy through your own affiliate link, then you probably won’t benefit from the contents of the book either. But if you must see the sales page for Get More Buyers, go to GetMoreBuyers.com

All these offers from these guru's sounds just like the years [way back] when these scams were simply Pyramid Selling.
ReplyDeleteIf you try some of these you'll most likely end up under the Pyramid. squish
I get many emails from Michael Rasmussen each porting how "easy" it is to make 5 and 6 digit incomes with his methods. The promo starts pretty inticing and when the pricing finally comes up, he says this is only being offered to a select few and greatly reduced prices and if you don't act now; it may be gone soon.
ReplyDeleteI bought into one of the courses on affiliate marketing. From what I was able to glean is that essentially you are re-selling what you originally bought or re-selling something of his or someones for a commission in his affiliate marketing scheme. In this course, he emphasizes "bonuses" which if you repackage an item you have to offer some incentive to buy from you rather than another person essentially selling the same thing! He keeps relating to "product" but the product is information, not an item like a new cereal for General Mills, or a new accessory for an Ipod.
This is essentially selling information about how to sell information.
Maybe it works for him and others like him, but it doesn't work for me!

I purchased one of Michael's products and tried to return it within the 30 days (the supposed guaranteed period). Unfortunately, it was not purchased through Clickbank... and Michael never responded to any of my many emails or phone calls. The product I was returning may have been fine for someone more advanced, but it wasn't good for me at that time. I would not recommend anyone who is so lax and unresponsive in their customer service. Just thought I'd throw my two cents in.
ReplyDeleteGood thing there are now sites where you can check if the service you are planning to hire is a good one.
ReplyDeleteJust like on yelp or any other review site, there will be people with many different opinions on the services they receive. It can be difficult to navigate "products" such as these, but I'd advise others to read the positive reviews and feedback as well in their search.
