Welcome To The Weekly Picks Section


This section is where I go to work for YOU. Each week I am going to review a different program. These will either be programs I've tried or new programs that you may want to get some feedback on. If it's a money making company I will contact them and ask them how they will tell me to promote their opportunity. I will then report back to you in this forum. These reviews will be totally unbiased. If I find a good company out there I will let you know. If I find a dog I will let you know that too. This will save you a TON of time in weeding through all the trash online.


Mar 1, 2006 - Weekly PAN - AUTOMATIC BUILDER


For the love of all that is good in this world, stay FAR away from this program. If you go to the site you will notice there is no information such as a FAQ page or anything like that. In order to get any info you need to submit a form which MUST include your phone number so they can call and badger you. Yes, that's what happens. The claims of money you can make are insane and there is no substance to this program at all. It's just another program where you have to get people to join and they think by hounding them with constant phone calls they'll eventually break your resistance. If you don't want to have to change your phone number please do yourself a favor and forget this site even exists. This is the URL so you know what to look out for.

AUTOMATIC BUILDER


Feb 23, 2006 - Weekly PAN - MONEY BANK


Here is just another example of a dishonest program. The scam here is that the company will provide you with some kind of software that will make you $100 a day, GUARANTEED. Any time I see something like that I am immediately skeptical. So, I wrote to the company and asked some pretty tough questions. Needless to say, they never got back to me. Surprise, surprise. You can take a look at the site yourself. I am sure you will also see that this sounds way too good to be true and anybody who doesn't reply to a support email (yes, they have a contact support email address on the page) is just out to take your money. Here is the URL of this scam.

Feb 15, 2006 - Weekly PICK - HONEST INCOME PROGRAM


This is one review that I can't write because it's simply unethical to review your own program. Yes, I have put my own ebook together. It consists of 3 programs that I have found over the course of my years on the Internet that if you follow my step by step instructions in the book you WILL make money, GUARANTEED. I actually wanted to call it the Guaranteed Income Program but FTC regulations prohibit me from doing this. But trust me, you WILL earn following my instructions. Actually don't trust me. Instead, what follows are two testimonials of two of the three people who have already bought this book from me. That's right, it's so new I've only sold 3 copies. But I'm sure once people see how good this system works I'm sure I'll be selling a lot more of them. It comes with Clickbank's 56 day FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE, so you have nothing to lose.

Here is what these two people have to say. They have both given me permission to print their full names and email addresses so you can contact them if you like.

Testimonial 1: Debbie Johnson, email address debbiej424@yahoo.com

My name is Debbie Johnson. I used the second program of the three program system. After a few months I have yet to have a month where I didn't make money and the company even helps pay for my advertising. I have never seen anything like this in my life. I can honestly say that at least for this one program (I haven't tried the others yet) what Mr. Wagenheim says is true. Finally, somebody has put out a truly honest product on the Internet. I'm not making a fortune but I am making money. I strongly recommend this book for someone with very little money to spend and an absolute need to earn.

Testimonial 2: Carol Singer, email address carolsinger1101@yahoo.com

Hey there! I'm Carol "the swinger" Singer. I'm known to be quite a crazy lady and quite honestly when I first saw Steve's ad for this book I though it was just more horsesh*t like I'm used to seeing online. But son of a gun, this stuff really works. The first program in his system actually pays you for the work you do. You don't have to sell or recruit. Just put in an hour a day and you'll make at least $150 a month. My best month was over $500. What do you know? An honest man on the Internet. Who would have ever thought?

Well, that's about it. Please contact these nice ladies. They'll answer any questions you have. In the meantime, here is the URL of the site if you want to check it out.

Feb 9, 2006 - Weekly PAN - JUVIO


Do not under ANY circumstances get involved with this company or any of its offshoots. They engage in deceptive marketing practices. I was a victim of one of their frauds. I was given all these members under me and told that if I joined in 24 hours I would be credited with their upgrades. After I joined they then told me that I would only get the upgrades for people I brought in. I immediately canceled my membership. They are some of the most dishonest people on the Internet. Here is the URL so you know what to stay away from.

JUVIO


Feb 1, 2006 - Weekly PAN - HITSINVADERS


You just have to see this site to believe it. In a nutshell, it is another matrix with a traffic exchange twist. They throw all these big numbers at you of what you can make but you'll never see more than the few cents they will pay you for each time your site is seen. The catch is, you can only do this for 90 days. Then they force you to join paid or they delete your membership. Please don't bother with this nonsense. Here is the site so you know what to look out for. The flying saucers do NOT give it credibility.

HITSINVADERS


Jan 25, 2006 - Weekly PAN - HOMETYPERS


This is worse than a home typing scam. This is actually Google Ad Words promoting Clickbank products disguised as a typing job. They don't even mention that the ads you will be typing are going to cost you money. And on top of it they charge you $97 for this service. I don't know how Clickbank lets them get away with this but please stay away from this site if you see it. Here is the URL so you know what to look out for.

HOMETYPERS


Jan 18, 2006 - Weekly PAN - LISTDOTCOM


This site is simply a variation of the original FREEMAILER. The concept is you get a matrix of 20 levels to fill. You can fill up to 5 on your first level and then after that those who you referred have to kick it into gear and sign people under them. Going down 20 levels you can have zillions of people under you who you can email your biz op to every week. Well, here's the problem with this program and all programs like it. Your average Internet marketer won't get more than 2 or 3 people tops and it will take them 3 to 6 months to get that many and then by the sixth month they will realize they aren't getting anywhere and drop out. Putting the average numbers into a calculator, on average it will take you one year to get about 50 to 100 people under you. Given that only 1 in 100 will buy your product or sign up for your program, that means you will make about 1 sale per year. I think you see where I am going with this. Programs like these just don't work but they lure people in with their impressive matrix and "possible" numbers. Reality never gets to that point. Please do yourself a favor. If you see this site just forget about it. It will only turn out to be a waste of your time. Here is the URL so you know what to look out for.

LISTDOTCOM


Jan 10, 2006 - Weekly PAN - YOUR LUCKY LIST


There is NOTHING lucky about this list. The gimmick goes like this. You sign up and get put in a random matrix where it is possible for you to end up on the top of the matrix and send to everyone in the list. Heck, I would have been happy to just fall somewhere in the middle during each random mix and send to half the list, or even a quarter of the list. But after 2 months of random mixes I have so far been able to send to all of, hold onto your hats, ZERO members. That's right. I have been at the absolute bottom of this list for 2 months. You would think that I'd at least be able to send to new people who join if they don't bring in anyone as I have just to test it out. Nope, not even them. So the advertising gimmick to get you to join is just that. It's all hype and no substance and therefor I urge you to stay as far away from these people as possible. The only way you're going to ever be able to send your offer to a member is if you bring him in yourself. Shame on these people for just a blatant promotional scam. If you want to know what to look out for, here is the URL of this shameless site.

YOUR LUCKY LIST


Jan 3, 2006 - Weekly PAN - PRO TYPIST


Just recently I reviewed a data entry "job" that you had to pay close to $100 to get. Again, any site that claims you are getting a job and you have to pay for it is NOT legit. Well, here's another one. This is a paid typing position where you get paid to type. This one is only $49.95 but trust me, there is going to be a catch somewhere and you're going to end up reporting them to the BBB. Please just stay away from sites like this. Here is the URL so you know what to look out for.

PRO TYPIST


Dec 27, 2005 - Weekly PAN - FIG


Ironically, this poor excuse for a program is really legit. They even have a toll free number to call, which is rare these days. But there are 2 problems with this program. 1) They don't have a clue about effective promotion. If you check their promotion page where they actually tell you how to promote this thing, you will see that none of the methods they suggest work. 2) Then, to add hype to stupidity, they make a claim that you can turn $13 into $18,588.60. Sad to say, that is just not realistic. Your chances of having any success with this program is slim to none. So I recommend that you stay clear of it. Here is the URL so you know what to look out for.

Dec 20, 2005 - Weekly PAN - PLAN4POWER


This will take very little explaining as to why to run as far away from this site as you can. They claim that for $25 and 2 ebook sales you can make $20,000. My friend, this is the perfect example of what NOT to bother with online. Please don't waste your time with this scam if you see it. Here is the URL so you know what to look out for.

Dec 14, 2005 - Weekly PAN - REFERRALWARE


This was a hard review to write because this company has been around for a long time but ultimately it comes down to another way too expensive program that brings too few results to those who can't afford it.

Here's the Reader's Digest version.

It's another company where you join and try to get people to join under you. They do GIVE you some okay tools but the key tool that you need, leads, is something that they don't give you. That you have to pay for, to the tune of $500 a lead group. That tells me that these are bulk harvested leads that are worthless. This explains why so few people have success with this program. The drop out rate is astronomical. Sure, you can join free and take advantage of their "tools" but none of them are going to make you any money without the leads, and THAT is where they hit you and hit you hard. Considering I can get over 60,000 leads a month for $5.50, and GOOD leads, there is just no point to even consider this program, free, paid or otherwise. There just isn't enough value in it. In case you're wondering, the tools are auto responders and click tracking tools to go along with a web site they give you. Plus you can store your leads (if you get any) in a database they give you. Well, like I said, all of this without the leads is pretty much worthless. On the site they even say, "promote your site wherever you can." They don't even tell you where or how and then when you write to them, like I did, they say, "Well, you can buy leads from us at $500 a pop." I wanted to tell this person what she could do with her leads but I decided against it. Anyway, please stay away from this program. Unless you are a seasoned marketer with knowledge of every effective advertising method you're not going to make any money.

Here is the URL so you know what to look out for.

Dec 7, 2005 - Weekly PAN - POWER FORCED MATRIX


This won't take long at all. Simply stay away from this site. It is TOTALLY fraudulent. Take a good look at the photos of the so called "success stories" on the page. You will find these SAME photos on many other sites. This is a common Internet scam, falsifying testimonials. So if this site will do that then they can't be trusted, PERIOD. Also, the checks on the page are blanked out in spots. A reputable company will NOT do that, such as my friend's company. Simply put, don't go anywhere near this site.

This is the URL so you know what to look out for.
