Rapid Income Creator

Yaaaaaawn I just about fell asleep looking at the video and I like how he kept saying "Im not going to bore you" while waiting on him to say what it's about.

In short... yes it will. You hit the nail right on the head, Tiffany!

This is not the first recent product to tell us how many fortunes we can make with PPV. Rapid Mass Traffic is another one; there's a long thread on that product if you're interested in this area and what people thought of RMT. Overall, reviews are mixed. But to be fair to RMT (perhaps even "overly" fair), not many of them come from people who have actually used the product. I have and I wasn't impressed. But I digress...

Speaking for myself, I've tried PPV several times (RMT and other programs) and never made a dime. Call me pig-headed. I dunno. Call me stupid! IMHO, it's very hard to make direct linking to Clickbank and CPA offers work. I believe PPV may be better for list building and long-term selling.

The main PPV network people tend to start with is Lead Impact (formerly Zango). In theory, there's a lot of traffic to be had there.

The problem (in my experience) is:

A) It's "incentivized" traffic. People agree to have ads pop up in their browser in exchange for free stuph. I would imagine that, after a fairly short period of time, they simply learn to ignore these ads the way I ignore Google paid ads. I stopped "seeing" them for the most part years ago. I just click right past them.

B) It's cheap traffic. Really cheap. And that would be great if it were good traffic. But as I've described in "A" above, I'm not sure it's good. Think about it. These are people who are willing to have ads pop up because they're too cheap to buy inexpensive stuph like games and wallpapers. What does that tell you? Are those same people really going to buy your Clickbank product? And even if they DO buy it, aren't you in danger of chargebacks?

The demographics on Lead Impact are good. However, my results have not been. Now, this is just one man's results, and I will admit I haven't tried list building yet. But this Rapid Income Creator is all about direct linking. Direct linking to the exact same pages 50 or a 100 or more others will also be direct linking to!

Bad idea!

I can tell you that with that many people all going after the exact same keywords and URLs (you can bid on URLs, too), it's going to be a log jam* in no time on the approval end. Costs will go through the roof. And then, on the back end, nobody is going to make any money because the market will be too diluted.

And that's assuming direct linking works – which in my experience it does not!

I don't know if this product is good or not. It may be great for all I know. But I think the concept behind it is a bad one.

And to be utterly cynical (how did that happen?)... If the five niches they're giving you with RIC are so freakin' great... why would they want to share them? Couldn't they make A LOT more money long term by not sharing them? I mean, they could OWN the entire market on LE, keep the prices low, and make fortune after fortune!

Hmmmmm....

Anyway, that's my two cents. I hope it helps.

P.S.: Is it just me... or is Clickbank becoming synonymous with crapola?


* When RMT came out, there was a HUGE influx of people onto LE, which meant that approvals that normally took 24-48 hours were taking – I kid you not – a week! I expect the same thing to happen here, though maybe not to the same degree.

By my count is was 5 back sells... or was it 6? 2 downsells for RIC and then some other offers.

The upsell/downsell/sidesell/backsell thing is getting COMPLETELY out of control. And as others have pointed out before...

Do you really want to be the guy who finds out he could have got the product for a deep discount if he'd tried to leave instead of just bought? You find out exactly how much the product is really worth and realize you overpaid (or got "taken," depending on your viewpoint). This doesn't exactly create good feelings towards the product marketer, does it?

Moderator, duh! obviously i'm a newbie..lol

Okay!

I didn't bought it right! I watching the video from Rapid Income Creator I didn't undertand the point!

Can you give us few picks insider!

thanks!

@kos818, hi there, as I said above in post #12

all well and good, but if you are not getting the list then what is the point.

I don't want to sound too pessimistic but what is the point of paying $200 for PPV to receive an average of 10 sales(and more often less) giving you 50% of profits = breakeven?

With 10 sales you have your money back but RIC (not you) has the list and that is where the "possible recurring" profits are made.

your opinion would interst me

This program was good in a way that i learned a few good things about Adnetworking, PPV etc. and i would still give this program a couple of more days to work.
You can deactivate your campaigns on leadimpact and you can get your remaining money back.

Yep, the more people buy this program and use the same exact keywords for the campaign the higher the PPV amount is going to go.

I'm guessing that you can succeed with PPV but I think building your own list is the way to go. Think about it. If you send people to a page where they can get a free 7 page ebook don't you think you are going to get a lot more people signing up for your list for the free ebook rather than straight out buying a product. Then once you have them on your list, you can use email marketing to persuade them to buy the product. In opinion, this is a much smarter way to go.

@tigerwar

So if i am getting 2000 hits in 2 todays even though no one is interested in buying that item, but still it's kind a good result. may be tomorrow ppl buy it, who knows? How can i use ad tracking? I am sorry i am new to this.

My brother has a website and he gets more than 1000 visitors everyday. If i use those 5 URLs or campaigns that RIC gave me, on my brother's website, will it work? Does it make sense?

When I said "stealing" i mean't:

On exiting and or sometimes changing pages, RIC do try to offer something to entice people to enter their email with opt-ins, which is absolutely o.k apart from the fact, that if people don't buy the product then RIC will have the email list and you go empty handed.


The whole system is a farce when you think about it. You are paying advertising networks so that RIC can get your list and YOU LOSE!!!

Many people will signup without buying the product straight away, that means:

RIC get the future customers, you paid for them and possibly didn't even make a Sale!!!

simply construct a squeeze page yourself and redirect them directly to the CB salespage!

This program was designed for NEWBIES because they don't realise that they are being Ripped-off!!!

I can only hope RIC sees this forum and starts changing their way of thinking, if they do they'll make good money because good news spreads like wildfire and that is what any business needs.
They have to work in favour of their customers or they'll simply end up as one those many scam marketers.
If they added a possibility for their customers to get the lists and train the newbies, it would be a great product.

If you asked me to take you from A to C but I told you to get out at B, would you appreciate that, would you recommend me to others as a great service?

RIC is leaving you at B.

If RIC took you to C then they would not only have a fantastic potential but I would personally even accept to pay them a commision of my sales, this way everybody wins.
Try to understand; RIC started a great idea but they didn't round it off.
Any product that is not rounded off (not enabling you to make future profits) is Scam. It means a quick profit for them whilst you die slowly, drenched in advertising bills, still believing in their system but getting nowhere very fast.
The problem. is that they appear not to be that farsighted at the moment and are leaving you in the middle of nowhere whilst you continue to pay them indirectly through giving them your opt-ins (your future follow up income) and you (not necessarily you, but their customers) still know absolutely nothing about building your own affiliate business.

If there's one thing you MUST have to truly make it, it's a growing list of prospects.

Just like the body needs oxygen to survive, a web business needs a growing list of email leads.

NEVER look at affiliate Marketing as game - It is a SERIOUS business and you MUST invest the right way.

Am I ever glad I checked here prior to purchasing! I definitely don't need another PPV or banner promoting program to get involved with, much less be asking for refund. Thanks for all of the input you guys have made.

Costi, these aren't new techniques, SORRY but you are the newbie, I really do not want to hurt you but either you are not reading this post or you're blinded by the light!

YOU will ONLY LOSE with this system, try it with maths, $200.00 advertising - 1 sale(if you are lucky)=$180 minus.

$200.00 advertising - 10 sales(lol)=break even.

I am honestly doing my best to help you!

Hi costi, thanks that you didn't take that in a bad way!

PPV is not necessarily the wrong way to advertise, but the product has to be a KILLER.
There are many top products out there but the money is really made with Pre-launch sales (by the so called "gurus") - a product that is not actual.
The affiliates come together as a Joint venture - that means everyone that is on their lists will be sent an email about "This Fantastic up-coming New Product".
So JV 1 has 5000 people on his list, JV 2 has 10,000 on his list etc etc. and they all advertise for this product and WOW "it must be GREAT" you think!
Basically when JV 1 then produces a new product he will be able to offer it to 15000 people instead of 5000.
So, think about this happening with 30 JV partners!!
Do they pay $200.00 for advertising?
No they are sharing their lists and making a quick profit, one hand washes the other.
You will never make money overnight by buying such products, so think FUTURE and build your own website, use the tools that you'll find in this forum and build your business slowly and with thought. Throw those "overnight Millionair" thoughts away and work hard to build your own Business.
Believe me, it is easier than you think, but you MUST do some homework

That's what i did. I waited but now even after 10 days 5000 hits but no sales and i've already lost $120. I even added more campaigns. I think i lost enough.

Costi, are RIC providing you with opt-in pages now enabling you to build your own list or not?

Interesting... if you check the properties of the screenshot, the file's name is bullshiz.png.

I mean, seriously...
