Duplication 123 Created by Simply Results

Duplication 123 is a lead generation system with a single capture page, customizable auto-responder pages and 6 modules of training in Network Marketing industry, Internet Marketing running a small business.

The system provides a single source of funding.  It uses power builder type practices to encourage quick sign up due to the perception of many others are signing in now so the sooner you sign the better your chances.

This investigation is based on access to the “FREE” backoffice access.  It is entirely possible things may be different in the FEE version but there was nothing in the working or directions in the FREE version to why I would want to pay.  No clarification of potential additional functionality or features to come when you pay the 35.00 a month.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

This system has no way to brand yourself except in the auto-responder customizations.  The landing / capture page is all about Duplication 123.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

You get a single stream of income with this system.  Individuals signing up for the system pay about 35.00 a month.  The person who brought you in gets a commission off their payment.  This is the only earning instrument in the system.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

The lead capture page and following sales page are busy with a ton of good looking, well integrated graphics.  I felt that most of this fluff made the site entirely too commercial and sterile.  The copy is ok but does not keep your attention. (Especially in the midst of the animated elements on the page driving your attention.)

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

The system provides 13 auto-responder letters in 3 different categories for a total of 39 prospect letters.  That sounds like a lot until you begin to read the letters. They are very simple and would need some attention if you really wanted to brand your expertise.  Here is a sample:

Hey FirstName,

Does building your business make you frustrated?

Are you facing money and time challenges? Do you have enough qualified prospects to talk with?

I think I can help: MyWebSite

There is a tremendous resource available now that is helping many others with these same challenges. It can even putting money in your pocket while you build your business bigger, better and stronger! Wouldn’t that be nice?

Here to Help,

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

Due to limited customization system use is pretty straight forward.  The menu system is sufficient.  I found myself looking for additional features (like custom landing pages or additional affiliate programs) but not finding any hints.  Probably because they are not their.  The site configuration section is driven by a wizard like interface.  All menu items have sub menus to provide some direction.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

There is a simple document suggesting customizations to you site by adding a picture, some  text that shows on the sales page after they enter the system and adding information on the about us page.  When I tried to actually do what the training suggested I got ” NO CUSTOMIZED CONTENT AVAILABLE”  based on the template I had selected (There was only one to choose!)

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

There is a FAQ section (empty), Notifications, Messages and a contact support button.  I’ve sent them a question about the commissions available.  I’ll let you know how that goes.  The response on the query was timely (within 24 hours) and accurate.  Turns out the commission was on the left sidebar of the landing page (http://duplication123.com/inetin – missed amoung the clutter).

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

In the 6 training modules with multiple items in each I found little to help in important ways on the Internet Marketing front.  There is reference to some strategies but with single and half page descriptions on the actions needed it just seems a bit weak particularly in light of videos, webinars and full blown tutorial in many of these other systems.

The training seems outdated.  Maybe it is in the presentation of text only.  No visuals and no multimedia.  I could just hope the text trainings really would provide me with adequate marketing support (though I doubt it.)

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

Duplication 123 might be easy to duplicate but I do not see it bringing success to users unless they compensate for the weak landing page with pre landing page capture pages helping the user to see the value of this system.

The prospect management tools look better than most system because they provide notes and tasks and activity tracking.  I just with the training / marketing support were stronger.  Even then I prefer a more straight forward capture page with less distractions.

It is likely I will not be recommending this system to others unless I find the system has an additional feature set tied to the pay for version.  Many  of  the elements are  there but not implemented in a way to leave me confident in the system.

Take a look at the system:

WT Power Builder by Patrick and Tracy ‘Power Gal’ Monteforte.

WTPowers was launched in 2001 out of frustration they had trying to find good online marketing tools.  They built as they say, “a comprehensive automated support system for network marketers.”

Training on the site focuses fundamental Network Marketing principles.  Great support and training on using the phone to build relationships with cold market / leads generated by the system. This is a Power Builder System.  It “pre-enrolls people” into your opportunity and helps them make a decision by letting them see other people in the system signing up.  This is a little different that the other systems we have seen.

The diverse training strategies are in a system worthy of consideration at the marvelous monthly fee of $19.95. Yes, it costs $19.95 a month. There is enough trust in the backend funding that the entire system is as they say “self supporting”.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

This system provides a straight forward simple capture page with a sales follow up page.  It also provides a visitors page to the WT Power System as well.  Because the framework and flow are straightforward personalization is 80% yours. You can change everything except the structure.

You may take over the entrie landing page and the Pre-Enroll pages. You also may customize the WTPowers sales page.  Personalization is available through this system.  Simple customizations are possible but knowledge of HTML is helpful for more extensive customizations.  It can be a lot of work.

If you know a lot about HTML you will find the page framework a little limiting.  You still need to work in the obounds of the system.  This can be a hugh amount of work.

If you choose to make NO customizations the pages perform OK with generic information about joining a business opportunities.

You may also make specific templates for all members on your team or in your company.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

Income is derived from commissions paid on  individuals who purchase the system.  This appears to be the only residual income source.  There are a few other tools available for purchase in the system back office.  These tools support marketing activities through a one time purchases.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

By default WT Power Builder has a single, somewhat generic landing page with distracting, irrelevant menu items.  If you are comfortable with creating your own capture page, you can change the content of the blocks but you will not be able to change the structure.  This means the distracting menu items will remain on the page even after your customization.

The simplicity of having a single page allows users to focus on making this page perform effectively.  (No there is not split testing in the system.)

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

The list building potential of this tool is simple.  Basic contact information is stored in the system.  You have the ability to make notes for the contact in the sytem.

You can send resend the welcome email to users by just clicking the send button when viewing the contact details.

You can export your contact list as Excel, Tab or comma delimited file.  The file only includes the contact information.  No notes are exported.

The system has no task lists, interaction journal, prospect status or contact management type tools.

The system does work as 30  autoresponder messages manageable after canceling the “Broadcaster” tool interface.  It was not on the main menu near Contacts or Tools and Services.  It is located under Customize Your Site.  The all messages are not populated so this will require you to create the autoresponder messages you want to send.

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

The workflow in this system is not always smooth.  Using the capture page editor or the html generating tool does not always bring you back where you would expect.  Often this system requires two or three clicks where other systems only take one.

The placement of Broadcaster under tools & services seem out of place.  Tools for you to communicate with your contacts should probably be closer to the Contacts area.  Autoresponder management might also be located close to the Contacts area.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

System “Getting Started” training is in the form of  three audio files.  Overview, beggining and advanced are the audios.  There is one  “To View The Video Demos ‘How This System Works’ ” video showing step by step system operation.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

Live Support and Help ticket menu items are always present in the system.  (Even on the capture page where they are potentially a distraction.)

There are strong support elements as you are working in any area.  There is an help question mark and video symbol on the top bar for most of the windows.  The question mark pops up the help file.  The video symbol pops up a screen captured video showing how to perform the specific task.

There are also weekly system training webinars.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

Weekly calls on “Dialing for Dollars” are not Internet marketing trainings while the topic does come up at times.

The principles and practices promoted by this system are those critical to successfully dealing with team members and potential clients.  The skills focus on following up with system “pre-enrollees” and other leads via the phone.

While this is an good tool for capturing and motivating contacts it is NOT an Internet Marketing training system.

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

This system is one of the few programs which personably promotes the personal progress of individuals as they deal with the challenges of building a business.  Much of the focus is build around embracing the use of the telephone.

This system and the weekly dialing for dollars call are perfect for people having trouble working with the telephone aspect of their business.  The growth of individuals are highlighted on these calls.  Tracy is powerful in her optimism of the power of using the phone.

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

This system scores poorly for the criteria established but is powerful in it’s simplicity.  It has it’s place in two main strengths.  First the beauty of a PowerBuilder system. While building  the relationship the system adds subtle pressure while showing others in the system joining “now”. The second strength of this system is the exceptional training on how to work the phones.

Like many of the systems under investigation, this is a simple system.  It has the critical elements required to support success.  The greatest weakness of this system is the lack of training in generating traffic using the  Internet.  The greatest advantage of this system is it’s focus on time proven fundamentals and the mastery of phone skills.

For individuals wanting to grow their business offline with online support this is an excellent system.  It provides consistent training on moving contacts to the next step using the phone.  The online support of the sales process is useful as the powerline promotes action.

With company / group specific customization the possibilities for use with a team as part of a process with duplication has promise.

Take a look at the system:

Lead Generation Systems / Funded Proposal Systems have a single goal.  Get prospects into your business.   So how do these systems help prospects progress to INvolvement with YOU?

The answer is easy but the course can be a bit complicated.  During the investigation of these systems the process became clear as  each system guru tried to teach how their system worked.  Thankfully, I ran into Jay Grissom‘s generic flow chart about the time I was looking to simplify this issue for you.  His detailed chart shows how complex it can be*.

My simplified chart skims over many of the details but gives you the overview you need to see how a lead generation / funded proposal system works for you.  Enjoy the video of the process.

Prospex by Jason O’Toole provides a refreshing perspective on what a lead generation system can be.  This system was created over the last 2 years from the perspective of a successful Internet/network marketer.  It has heavy support for networkers with less of Internet Marketer slant than most system in this investigation.

Training on the site is a narrow focus on the most recent practices for using social networking sites and tools for driving traffic.  You do not find PPC or Article marketing training here.  You get blogging, Facebook and Twitter.  You get an automated integration of social networking with blogging.  Jason just plain delivers on the way to bring people into relationships of trust.  He delivers in ways no other system delivers on attraction marketing.

This site also supports network marketing with training by top level network marketing professionals offering both free and fee training to support the building of a downline.

These diverse training strategies are in a system worthy of consideration at the marvelous monthly fee of FREE.  Yes, it costs $0.  There is enough trust in the backend funding that the entire system is “self supporting”.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

You are not branded unless you purchase an upgrade which will allow you to use your own videos on the capture page.  Jason O’Toole is the primary man in the trainings and on the landing page.  That said Jason takes a far less prominent role on landing page.  He is there to add credibility and the human touch at the end of the letter. Other than that, the capture uses testimonials from other network professionals on the benefits of the system.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

Income is derived from affiliate links in the system.  The affiliate programs are mostly network marketing trainings by professional network marketers.  Many of these trainings are free.  Then there are inexpensive ebooks and some full training systems.

Currently, there are 2  eBooks, 4 CD/DVD Courses, The Amazon aStore,  4 Business Tools ( Classified Ads, Conference Recording, Web Hosting, Autoresponder) as funding sources.

These have changed in the last 2 weeks.  The site is evolving and improving with new materials and funding propositions.  Epic Sponsoring is a fee-based  enhanced version of Prospex allowing more personal branding and residual income stream potential.

The integration of the Amazon aStore into the Prospex Library is a new powerful feature.  (See an example)

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

Prospex has a single,  somewhat generic landing page with distracting, irrelevant menu items.  There is NO customization of this page.  The landing page has audio statements from various Network Marketing leaders with Jason O’Toole shown at the end as the person behind the system.  This softens the branding of a single individual you see in so many other systems.

Granted it is NOT YOU, but it is multiple experts all pulling for your prospects success.  You can be seen as one of those.

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

The list building potential of this tool is very strong but you would never know it.  The interface for working with folks you refer to the system is horrible.  It is made up of various pop up windows for various activities.

The system has a calendar which seems disconnected from your interactions with prospects.  As it turns out, you schedule a call for a prospect and it shows on the calendar.  It even sends you an email reminder of appointments if you want.

There is power in the ability to track your interactions with users you have brought into the system.  Too bad it is hidden between appearing / disappearing windows and  menus.  It could be one of the strong points of the system if it was easier to use like the Magnetic Sponsoring or Freedom Duplicator systems.

The ability to export information allows you to “Own” the list.  You are then able to add the list to autoresponders and other tools for marketing campaigns.  (Another feature added in the last two weeks)

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

I struggled a little because of the changing left menu system.  After choosing a top link like “Getting Started”,  the left sidebar links  becomes the submenu of “Getting Started”.  Left sidebar items disappear in several cases.  Choosing “My Account” reveals a longer list of links and a promotional bit in the left sidebar.  This inconsistency takes a bit of getting used to.

A suggestion would be to make the links on the left side could become pop up menu items tied to the top level menu.  The Left sidebar could then consistently promote the latest training call and the upgrade package or other specials.

There are different link locations inside the training pages, the library, the  account page and the home page.  Inconsistencies allow for some discomfort in working with the system.   This effects system usability and diminishes from the sites professional potential.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

System training is in the form of videos and step by step instructions under the “Getting Started” link.  Like other system Prospex gets you started with the details of configuring the tool without providing the needed foundation to know WHY you are doing it.

The set up steps are not to difficult, but should take place AFTER the marketing plan is in place.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

There is not a specific support service in Prospex.  No FAQ,  no forums, no ticket system.  There is only a “Contact” tab.  The system is simple enough you don’t need a lot of support.  When there were questions or issues they are quickly resolved by sending in the contact information.  Responses returned within 24 hours.   Good answers and issue resolution.

There was even a new feature added in days based on a single suggestion.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

The attraction of the Prospex system is its cutting edge marketing coaching in simple strategies for Internet Lead Generation AND training and support for traditional Network Marketing values.  The purpose of all the online / offline activities and training focus on building relationships so people know, like and trust you.

The entire Internet Training only took a few hours.  In those few hours tools and techniques for results were delivered with a larger vision.  This was refreshing.  The path to progress and success was not muddled with the typical barrage of possible ways to work.

Missing was the Marketing Plan and entire strategy overview support for the individual technical video presentations.  For advanced users suggestions on optimizing additional strategies might have a place.  These advanced strategies are supported more fully in the upgrade, Epic Sponsoring.

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

This system is one of the few that provides strategic direction to personal development on an ongoing basis.  Weekly teleconference calls usually provide coaching on growing a Network Marketing business.  Even those calls dealing with Internet Marketing seem to circle back to the root purposes of building relationships, serving by leading and building your Network Marketing Business.

Permission to be where you are and an invitation to grow is a consistent theme through Prospex training.

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

This system scores poorly for the criteria established.  Despite the low score training balances old school network marketing principles  with cutting edge social networking tactics at no cost makes this very attractive.  The more systems I review the more I appreciate simple solutions with strengths in just the right spots.

Prospex has me wondering if most of the right things are in the right spots.  This product was released in May so it still has some growth until it is fully established.  Time will tell but for now Prospex is poised to turn some heads and provide value to its users.

Prospex (Epic Sponsoring $49.95) is evolving to become a strong advocate of traditional network values in the modern evolution of social media.  Many network marketing companies are struggling to identify how they will use online systems to duplicate successfully.  Prospex is poised to position itself as a strong answer of the best of both worlds.

The success and sustainability of the system relies on several elements in the purchased training area.  Do to the quality of the free training one may ask if there is even a need for purchased training materials.  Time will tell if the model is sustainable.  Until then open a free account and take advantage of a cadre of network marketing experts working around a simple but strong lead generation system.

Best of success,

One of the signs of a viable system is its ability to respond to the needs of its users.  The users have spoken and the MLM Mastermind System listened.  Last week Jonathan Budd announced the MLM Mastermind System includes Aweber autoresponder integration.

This opens the door for users of the Aweber auto responder to join the Mastermind System and seemelessly experience the advantage of Jonathan Budd’s capture pages, list management and backoffice training. Compatibility with Aweber also provides an alternative for those adverse to GetResponse as the systems lone autoresponder.

The change came as a response to pressure from system users and Internet marketers avoiding the system because of it’s single autoresponder support (GetResponse).

In addition to Aweber integration, Jonathan Budd announced the ability for system capture pages to contain user defined fields with some reservations. He reminded users the more fields they add to a capture page the less likely they are to click through the capture page.

Custom fields in the list adds user ability to track the fype of information they want in the backroom. This alone allows your list in MLM Mastermind System to also act as a Relationship Management tool.  With this change you can now tracking your communications and inteactions with each individual on your list. A real value for system users.

See how the system aWeber integration and additional custom fields works for you. Check out the changes for 14 days for $1

Freedom Duplicator by Rod Moore is a straightforward simple system with all the elements needed to succeed.  Rod’s approach to the system and how it will help is a little different than most systems out there.  He really seeks to add extreme value and a tool worthy of your consideration.

When you get started with the system you actually get the training first. A nice approach.  You are enrolled in the MLM Attraction Marketing University at no charge.  Once you sign up you receive over 20 emails with links to training video links.  Each builds upon the prior.

Actual upgrade into the Freedom Duplicator System was difficult.  There were no direct links to the system sign up page.  All the links I could find pointed to the MLM Attraction Marketing University sign up page.  (Conversion rate into the program would likely be stronger if the link to the Freedom Duplicator Members area also had a Sign Up link.)  Upon request he sent me out the link.  Now we can jump into investigation of this system.

Rod is a personable individual with a helpful attitude. He was more than willing to talk on more than one occasion via Skype.   He is practicing what he suggests in the Attraction Marketing University Introductory section on Attraction Marketing.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

Rod Moore is heavily branded in the system.  He is in every video and he is expounding his wisdom in the MLM Attraction Marketing University.

The capture/landing pages are entirely customizable.  You can add all you want about your expertise.  Just know you will want to introduce Rod Moore as a trusted expert because your people will be seeing his face throughout the MLM Attraction Marketing University frontend to the Freedom Duplicator System backend upgrade.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

The primary source of income in this system are sales of others into the system.  This is the only source of ongoing income unless you include an ongoing income producing product / service in your custom links.

The other affiliate programs in this system are OK.  They are affiliate links from Mike Dillard and Ann Sieg’s programs.  Recently, Rod added the ability to add your own affiliate links.  This is powerful as you can include any program you desire.  (I put  a few in, but have not tested their integration.)

Flexibility in this area helps the monitization potential of this system.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

The system provides 7 “Index” pages. Each has a related “Promotion link”.

• Main Index Page – Long Copy
• Forget Renegade University
• Blank Template Page 1
• Main Index – Short Copy V1
• Dominate The Search Engines V1
• Attracting Twitter Leads
• Facebook Attraction Marketing

The promotional link points to the primary Freedom Duplicator Capture page which is really the MLM Attraction Marketing University “Free” enrollment page.  This is in keeping with what Rod teaches about having a single marketing funnel with an “irresistibly offer”.

As you can see these “Index” pages leans toward specific needs of network marketers online.  You have control over the information in the subsections of these index pages.  A very nice feature.

After people are on your list you can send them messages which contain links to the other affiliate programs you put into the system.  This is in keeping with Mike Dillard’s Traffic Formula training.  Build your list.  Build your relationship.  Monetize your list.  Rod would have you include various affiliate links in follow-up emails.

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

Your relationship with your list is strengthened by your agility to follow up with appropriate notes and ratings in the lead management area.

More than just an autoresponder, this system has fields for “Best time to call” and “Next follow up date”.  hHe also as a link to “Send Mail”.  In other words the system supports on and offline relationship building.  You have the freedom to add notes into the system at will.

Strengthening relationships is a key element of what Rod teaches and what his system supports.  All this is done in the Freedom Duplicator System.

There is NO way to own the list.  You cannot export the information in “Your” list.  This raises the question of whoes list is it really.  All the valuable Customer Relationship data is managed in a system you do not have complete access to.

This is a weakness that could be easily resolved with export capabilities.

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

Simple and straightforward.  Nothing difficult here.  There is no real workflow direction to the system.  Instead there are always available links that give you what you need.  (The term Index Pages for your Capture / Landing pages took some getting used to).

There was no clear way to get help or assistance.  No place to ask questions or see the questions others are asking.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

Training on the actual system setup is under the Training tab.  There is a system Overview video.  Some technical videos on registering and forwarding a domain.  After the domain name stuff it jumps into setting up your profile.  (It seems to me the order of these should be reversed.)

The final system set up videos deal with “Working With Your Leads” and “Sending Group Emails”.

All setup and introductory information is done by video.  Like other systems investigated I see this as a weakness.  Video is great for the first time through but it is horrible for users who need a check list or reference.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

Training in video is the only thing I can find in terms of support.  The answers might very well be in the video, but if I cannot find it It will do me little good.

No FAQ.  No online community. No live chat.  No phone number.  There is NO system support visible.

I guess you are left contacting Rod directly.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

This system is very strong on simple, straightforward training. The Partner Training Centre has 7 simple steps. The “Fast Start”  Marketing area deals with 10 fastest strategies to get started.  The “Advanced Marketing Strategies” include 14 strategies. (Several of these are tagged with “Coming Soon”.)  Training on system customization gives you what you need for making the system work for you.

Weekly Webinars are listed in the Training Centre also.  There are no dates and it looks like they have only had three of these webinars.  (This looks like it is not being updated lately.)

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

The system provides guidance on “Developing a Marketing Plan”. Rod Moore does give strategic direction.  He also differentiates between tactical and strategic actions.  The system is always reinforcing building relationships.  Non of these trainings deal with personal development they go a long way at helping.

Setting of goals and setting expectations on the work involved to accomplish the goals are mentioned and suggested in the system. There is no personal goal tracking system other than the fact Rod Moore covers these “directional” type topics.  This fosters personal growth.

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

The system is simple, but very workable.  It is not cluttered with a lot of hype or complicated systems configurations.  There is power in this system simplicity.

Control over the landing pages is fantastically simple.  Tracing your integration with your leads.  Very strong.  No ability to export your list stinks.  Training is very strong.  All video training makes reference and reminders a little difficult.

The training is fairly basic and will likely never be extreme unless Rod brings in specialists.  This may appear to be a weakness.  Actually, by keeping the training simple and focused on the essentials there is less confusion and more ease in implementation.

I like this system. I like the way Rod Moore models and focuses on Attraction Marketing.  There are weaknesses like incomplete trainings, no video notes and Rod’s sometimes slow delivery when you are wanting more, now! (likely a personal problem for this investigator).

Freedom Duplicator at $37 per month this provides everything you need to use attraction marketing as a mechanism for building your Network Marketing Business.  The price is fair when compared to the $47 or $49 charged by other systems which are not as strong in the building a relationship support materials.

If a team determines to use this tool they will not be disappointed until they want exact step by step direction on a single path to success.  This system gives you multiple ways to get people to enter your relationship building funnel there is a chance you may get lost (Just too many sources).

The marketing plan and goals are useful at providing direction but not strong enough to drive you down a single path until you have achieved success.

With the recent addition of your own affiliate link customization and the ability to adjust the landing pages this system can serve all your needs.

Best of success,

The MLM Mindmaster System by Jonathan Budd is a complex, advance system allowing for personal branding and lead generation.  The flexibility of the program gives you a lot of options. The complexity of the program requires greater effort in mastering the system.

The benefits of the system are strained by the demands it places on the system user.  Written by Internet marketers, the system relies heavily on online strategies.  There is no mention of working off line to build your business.

Because of the greater complexity the system will need to exceed in training and support to give full value to users.  Let’s see how Jonathan and crew tackle the challenges of meeting user needs.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

The Mastermind System prides itself on allowing personal branding.  Many capture pages are 100% customizable. The default sales pages are less “brandable”.  Users can control where the sales pages go.

Using this system provides personal branding possibilities, but this takes a huge amount of work.  It is likely Jonathan Budd will end up in the face of your system visitors unless you make the effort at branding.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

13 programs are included in the system.  4 of the programs provide residual income.   All of the programs are good for networkers.  There is no way to add your own product, nor your own affiliate program links.

With the funded proposal, one of the key elements of these systems you would think a system priding itself in personalized branding would allow for personalized affiliate links.  Maybe someday.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

The capture pages in this system are touted as being “High” conversion pages.  With the high level of personal branding and the quality of the default sale pages users should be left with the task of driving traffic.

There are 12 regular capture pages, 3 customizable pages (1 video page, 1 bulleted list page and 1 image/bullet list page) 10 dynamic keyword pages and some autoresponder email campaign pages.

Matching the right sales letter to the campaign becomes a real task as the letter templates are not readily visible at the point of selection.

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

The system does not have a built in auto responder or way to add information on leads introduced into the system. The external autoresponder (Aweber or GetResponse) becomes your list and the way of dealing with your leads.

There are no directions on what to do with your leads outside the system.   The campaign management portion of the site displays statistics about the campaign, but no individual lead information.  You have to go into the autoresponder software to follow up on leads.

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

The startup and marketing course flow is not real clear as you are taken to a page with no navigation and shown things to do requiring navigation. It would probably be ok in a different window, but the navigation is gone because it opens in the same window.

Help is mostly through content sensitive video. At a certain point, the videos become tiresome and you just wish there was a quick text page with a short list of next steps.

Campaign customization is challenging because you do not see the item you are personalizing in the context of the template.  If you could see the template place holders while making changes, the difficulties of personal branding would be gone.

The dropdown menus work well except the descriptions are not clear.  Advertising slide out menus list some specific services and marketing strategies.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

System set up and training are initiated on a page without the menus.  Like other systems there is too much techinical work done out of context for new system users.  A marketing / setup hybrid training with hands-on set up action path would better serve anxious new users.

There was recently a change allowing Awebber to interface with the system and there was no announcment obvious on the home page.  It would seem like system upgrades would be found on the site.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

There are several methods of getting assistance.  The system Frequently Asked Questions, the user community and the formal support request.  The formal request system is the same external Support Suite used by Ann Sieg’s The Renegade System.  This is a dead end navigation point because there are no links on the Support Suite site back to the Mastermind System.  Worse yet, the Support Suite does not open in an external window.  It opens in the window you are working on the system with.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

Training is mostly done by video.  There is little effort to give visual hints, tips, clues or checklist  for the trainings.  There are several experts with their wares on the site.  Most of the larger programs and third party products are available for purchase.

Each are of Internet Marketing implementation is filled with resources similar to those in other programs. There is little beyond the video of how to do Internet Marketing in that arena.  Strategy, ways to approach marketing and what to expect while marketing are not revealed.

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

Personal progression and development are mentioned in a few of the videos as Jonathan is discussing some other topic.  There is no marketing plan, content development plan and little to set forth the realities of what it takes to succeed.

Individuals are left to rely on the forum participants and the next “latest” technique video put out by the system leadership.

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

The deeper I get into this system the less I like it.  The lack of strategic direction and all support in video wears on me the longer I work with the system.  It is fabulous the system can be custom branded, but mapping campaign content fields to template fields could be much cleaner.

Jonathan is constantly producing new content through webinars and other events.  These additions to the system are in the training center under posted training archives.

The large number of brandable capture pages and  the rich library of training resources provide excellent value for the price.  The trainings sometimes wander a little as live, on the fly events will.

The MLM Mastermind System is a rich tool with advanced capabilities and customizations for personal branding. The steep learning curve with only loose direction will leave some users struggling a while to master  the system.

This is a strong program. Direct efforts to market to system users is distasteful. Complications of complexity require a precise training program.  Such a complete training program is missing so the ratings on this system suffer.

This system and its strong branding capability draw me in until I try to apply personal branding.  It is harder than it seems.  The system then looses some of its appeal.  If there was strategic direction and expectation, then I would know what to expect and excel at getting on with it.

Give it a spin for the 7 day $1 trial.  Grab some of the training first, then go about setting up the system if it works for you.

Best of success,

The MLM Lead System Pro by Norbert Orlewicz, Brian Fanale  and Todd Schlomer provides a complete system for generating leads for your MLM opportunity.  This system provides everything you need to succeed.  It is not a simple system because of its advanced capabilities.  It does take  time to get set up learn.

MLM Lead System Pro (MLSP) also provides marketing training which includes strategic execution advice not found in most other systems.  This advice goes a long way towards differentiating this system as user centric.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

MLSP provides extensive opportunities for customization.  Users may add personalized videos and text to campaign landing pages.  Sales letters are another story.  A paragraph and a video on the sales page are customizable.  The rest of the page is all about MLSP and the testimonials etc in the system.

Like other systems allowing for heavy customization, few take advantage of this capability.  Most marketers are willing to give the “expert” flag to Norbert or Brian.  Opportunity lost.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

The funded proposal behind this system includes 21 products or services.  Several of these are residual income producers.  Most of the products come from Mike Dillard’s affiliate program.   The other items relate to generating traffic and promoting yourself online.

There is no way to include other affiliate programs into the system.  A real limitation.  Along this same line there is no way for you to add your own product or service to the system once you grow to the level of producing your own content.

These are serious limitations for the marketer in this for the long haul.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

There are 19 capture pages, 4 welcome pages and 4 sale pages.  You see the funnel effect.  The capture pages lead to either welcome or sale pages.  The sale pages all lead to the MLSP sign up page.  There are options in these pages allowing for some flexibility.  Adjusting campaign pages after the initial save is also limited. There is no way to change the base template after the campaign is saved.  Previewing completed campaigns was not straightforward either.

Campaign capture pages are extensively customizable.  The sales pages allow limited customization.  You may net a 60-80% customization capacity if you use it.

Page sets are applied to each campaign.  There is no way to copy the work done from one campaign to another.  Setting up each campaign requires starting from scratch. This is a pain!  Tweaking customizations as you learn to be more effective is quite labor intensive. This will likely only affect advanced users.

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list.

Leads captured by this system will also be in your autoresponder.  This system keeps a simple list.  You have control over the name and the phone number.  There is a place for a Skype name listed in the detail area, but it is not editable.  When you drill down into individual leads you may add notes.  The notes only appear on the detail page and do not seem to be searchable.  It is nice to have a place for tracking interactions with the lead outside of autoresponder statistics.

This system has a My Team area for all of the people who sign up for the MLSP directly under you.  You may communicate with your team through an email my team link.  I assume note taking capabilities also exist like the other leads list.

The ability to track communication with leads and team members is useful in building the relationships desired.  In the Marketing Training, there are scripts and suggestions on handling your MLSP leads.

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

System usability is adequate.  Several nice touches include the My Content area for the storage of resources you will use in the system.  It becomes a central repository for marketing collateral.

The system supplies adequate direction and instruction to make it usable.  It could improve by having some text directions for reference instead of everything being in video format.  Work flow around campaigns could definitely improve as noted above.

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

You know you are in for an adventure when the first thing they offer is an easy set up service for $197.

System Set up took me over 4 hours (I did side track a few times).  It is not easy and several steps were out of order.  Everything was delivered via video.  I would have loved a PDF checklist document so I could mark my progress along the way.  None exists.

As a teacher I would reorder the steps into instructional chunks integrating marketing 101 instruction.  It could make for a rich Marketing Training with hands on instructions to set up the tool.  Oh well,  it is a technical set up without knowing why. The marketing training follows expecting you to use what was set up blindly.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

This system has one of the more extensive help systems.  It includes Frequently Asked Questions,  Skype support, Community, Your referring affiliate and the MLSP Support area.  Wow.  Thankfully the system training was adequate for most tasks avoided the support areas.  Glad to know they exist if needed.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

The Marketing 101 training in this system is the best I’ve seen for one reason.  The training includes a discussion of marketing budget, resource management and it sets reasonable expectations of what is required to have success.  This idea of a marketing blueprint and a marketing plan gives direction to all the rest of the learning in the system. I just wish the other training would reinforce key marketing blueprint concepts.

Most of the marketing strategies are covered in video with mention of resources.  The detail pages for each strategy provide rich resources and key concepts provided for your success.

Training in this system seems more organized in its presentation. Less wandering around a topic and more to the point. (Although some of the webinars move slowly.)

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

Personal development and dealing with the emotions of learning something new are not handled in this system.  It does a great job of painting the path and the direction to go with the Marketing Blueprint and Marketing Plan at the beginning of the Marketing 101 area.  This beginning is where such personal development ends.

The 77 video topics from webinars and the live Skype community and ongoing weekly webinars show a real effort to provide for progression and development.  These fall short as they are mostly directed at acquiring knowledge and deal little with the personal development process.  (That said I did not view all 77 video topics nor the webinars so maybe I’m wrong. Please teach me if so.)

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

I’m glad I jumped into the $1 try it out offer.  The training is fabulous.  Jump in for the $1 and then just go through the Marketing 101 training and the training pages for the few focused areas they suggest.  You will be miles ahead.

Strong personal branding capabilities are a strength.  Practical direction is powerful.  Weaknesses include a difficult set up  process, limited affiliate options with no expandability and most training and setup instruction is in video.  This coupled with weak relationship building tools leaves you hoping for future improvements to match the quality of the overall system.

I like working with the system after the initial steep learning curve.  I do not like the fact that everywhere I go I end up on yet another MLSP landing page with no effort made to brand the individual pointing me there.

MLM Lead System Pro provides an excellent balance in meeting the needs of new system users while giving developing marketers the tools they need to effectively market themselves.  The power of the system is only available after the painful set up process.  I think this problem could easily be resolve by applying effective instructional design principles.

Too bad the richness of the system is not discovered until getting past the initial learning curve.  It is also too bad that once a person gets into building and managing campaigns that the second weak spot reveals itself.  Having to start each campaign from scratch is a pain point for me and many other busy system users.

The wealth of support and well organized, instructional resources make this a system worthy of consideration.  Lack of affiliate programs over saturation on the web and most users lack of personal branding distract this system from reaching its maximum potential.

I look forward to seeing this system refine itself if it will. Until finished, this is an excellent way to develop the skills you need with strong support through out the system.

Best of success,

The Renegade System by Ann Sieg provides an excellent foundation for building an MLM business through attraction marketing.  This is a simple system with the basic required components.  For the one time price of $68.00 the system provides extreme value.

Ann Sieg has provided a system giving users what they need to practice her teachings from her books “The Renegade Network Marketer” and the “Attraction Marketer’s Manifesto”.  It falls short of becoming a powerful system for advanced users because of its simplicity.  Once you apply all the training and resources provided, you will need a more advanced system to make it really work for you.

Branding – How well does the system brand YOU as an expert?

This system heavily brands Ann Sieg.  While the system user enjoys having their name at the end of the free books, the book is clearly written by Ann to promote Ann and her strategy for using attraction marketing to buid a MLM business.

As in other sytems with weak personal branding, users of this system will need to use resources outside the system to build their expertise in the eyes of their prospects.  This can be done by edifying the person you are referring to on the capture/landing pages and their products.

Income Streams – How does the system generate cash flow?

Cash flow opportunities are more extensive in this system than most.  There are 8 promotional programs to bring people into the system and 27  or more affiliate programs in the “backend” sales system and three major affiliate systems:  “Click Bank”, “Commission Junction” and  Amazon.

The products in the system are related to setting up an Internet marketing effort.  Additional opportunities exist in Internet/Information Marketing.  Most of the products are one time sales.  The few products with potential residual income will likely be purchased by more advanced users who  have outgrown the system.

Capture / Landing Pages – What brings qualified people in?

One size fits all.  For each product in the system,  there is only one capture page heavily branded with Ann Sieg and no chance for the system user personalization.

There are no capture pages for products provided by third party vendors.  These are typically geared to help system users anyway. The user needs to create their own landing pages/autoresponder(if desired) to promote these outside of the system.

Relationship Building – How do you establish a relationship with your list?

The system does collect lists of people.  There is a different list for each product offered in the system.  A person expressing interest by downloading a free book gets added to the list for that product. There is little users can do with the list except run a few reports and export the data.  There is NO autoresponder (although Awebber is an affiliate product of the system).  There is also no note taking capabilities or other tools supporting relationship building.

No phone script a or instructions on what to do next after people are on your list. This is a disappointment.  Particularly where Ann helps you get the leads in and provides a rich environment for teaching you how to attract people.

Usability – How does the system support your work in the system?

Clear menus with straightforward navigation was useful.  Most of the pages are written like Ann’s books or one of her long sales letters with inline text links.  Most information is presented in pages laden with too much text. This makes it difficult to jump from step to step as some web readers will be inclined (like me).

System Training – How do I come up to speed with the system?

At this time, there is an annoying series of ads on the home page that make it hard to get to the 10 Step Overview located below the series of sales pitches.

The 10 Step Overview provides a good starting place. The steps are clear and information helpful.  Flow through the information may be a little slow for technically savvy users.  There are also several places for getting distracted through the text links.  These links do not open in a separate window so be careful it is easy to get lost.

System set up  does not require technical knowledge.  It is really an orientation to the system and how to use it in building your business.  The small step progress is useful to new users.

System Support – When I get stuck what help can I expect?

There is an external Support Suite system that opens in a new window.  It has a Knowledge base, News, Downloads, Troubleshooter and submit a ticket area.  This area requires a separate login. There are no link back to the main system area making it a little confusing initially.  The  “Support Suite” looks and feels like a forum. It looks like only official information is released on the site with no place for personal comments.  Be sure to discern between official and informal information in forums.

Internet Marketing Training – How do I generate Internet leads?

This area jumps a critical component. It assumes you know how to move forward.  With just a quick statement or two the training jumps into online and offline methods of “Advertising” to generate traffic.  The training and resources landing pages misses a great opportunity to provide users with strategic direction and the key steps to success.  Too bad.  Instead, the user is left to begin making strategic marketing decisions on their own without enough information.

Users choose from various online and offline strategies.  Each strategy is described.  The system provides  a rich set of resources and helpful hints on how to succeed.  These by themselves are worth the price of the system.

Personal Development Training – Will the system support my growth too?

Due to the detail information in Ann’s trainings, I thought there would be  more larger picture,  strategic direction.  There is no mention of a marketing plan, a content development plan, nor any strategies for managing the tasks, budget or expectations involved in running successful marketing campaigns (on or off line).  My greatest disappointment with this system is the gap between the vision / dream of success and the tactical/technical implementation.  It seems goals, expectations and a road map would make the program complete.

I worry the NEW Renegade University Pro system with its click-by-click guidance may also miss critical goal/direction expectations training opportunities.

Overall Impression – So Jim, What do you think?

The program provides an excellent, simple solution for promoting Ann Sieg and her quality information products.  If you can make it through the long pages of “Sales Letter” like text, you will be enriched and prepared to succeed.  If you limit your focus to a few simple strategies you will probably find better success than if you try to absorb all the system has to offer.

I’m glad I purchased this system because of the rich resources and Ann’s simple story.  It is written masterfully and should be required reading of all who want to be ‘Atrraction Marketers’.

The Renegade System provides a great foundation for building your MLM with “Attraction Marketing”.  It helps you understand how to use information marketing  product.  It lays the beginnings of thinking differently about generating interest in you and your prospective business opportunity.

I am disappointed by the gaps in personal progress,  strategic direction and ongoing personal support.  Like many of these systems, the personal touch gets lost despite the warm writing style used throughout the site.  Video segments could soften this as well as ongoing webinar/teleseminar trainings/recordings.

Get  this system and use the resources for building your tools and skills for effective advertising and traffic generation.

Best of success,
