Julie, it's article marketing. Send the people to a squeeze page, your product or even your affiliate link. Just blasting out some articles without any links won't make you any single penny.

This is a classic example of why people become jaded. I very seldom rant against product launches because I am, after all, a marketer. But I'm also a sales copy writer, have been writing copy for two decades (started in mail order) and this is some of the worse copy I've read in a long time. It leaves the reader completely blind without even so much as a hint of what you're really getting.

I've looked underneath the hood. I've played with the web-based software and I've got $27 pieces of software on my hard drive that will drive more traffic to my websites than this. In my opinion this product / service isn't even worth the price of admission. Whatever happened to alpha and beta testing your own service and sales process before launching?

I lost all respect on any name associated with this launch. "Only 200 copies" will be sold? Do they really think we're that stupid? Apparently they do. That's all I have to write at this point as I'm shaking my head in total and utter disgust.

My thoughts exactly

The sad thing is they will be raking in masses of email details which they will use to build a huige list, these then will probably be used on legit programs from trustworthy marketers and they will earn a fortune in commissions..

It's funny when people go through all the trouble of contacting the seller for a refund in such a case and keep waiting.

Just follow the link sent to you in ClickBank's email and request a refund from there.
I submitted mine yesterday and got the refund today.
Simple really.

bluet

Yep. Submitted mine to ClickBank a couple hours ago.

I just received a response to a support ticket I submitted. The response had absolutely nothing to do with the 2 questions I asked LOL.

Seems like it was just a general response that they mass replied with to all support tickets.

Hi Dink



Still no sales ... getting ready to press the refund button, will probably wait until then end of next week.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not from the Ian Ross team or whatever but did you drive traffic with your articles to your website or affiliate link? I think that many people do it the wrong way and blast out rewritten articles without any affiliate links or whatever you use.

"Who let the dogs out!"

Yup, another one bites the dust!

I did purchase and was completely stumped once I finally got access which took days. Looks like there are some tools inside that might be useful if they only explained it.

Looks like there's only one clickbank account raking in the $$ on this one!

And I knew better but saved by clickbank's return policy! Yes

Thanks to everyone here for the reviews!
Heading for my refund.

Yep, I too got suckered with this product. There were no instructions and as previously mentioned just another article spinner, seo type software available everywhere.

Just found the whole product way too complicated.

Anyways I refunded, as i'm sure a lot of other people have.

I wouldn't risk my reputation marketing a product like this.

Hey Warriors

We picked this up more than a week ago and haven't seen anything as yet in terms of additional clicks or $$$$

We figured that they were pretty disorganised when they came out with the "mind-numbing thought" that maybe people would want to know what to do once they paid.

Anyway, when we got the generic support ticket that everyone seems to have received we thought ok - lets just wait another 2 -3 days.

Well - time's up and we are off to clickbank to hit the REFUND button and good old Affiliate X's refund button will be hit too.

This reeks of the "Commission Robot" type concept that did the rounds about 14 or 15 months ago?????

Anyway, off to Clickbank. Cya

I bought this as well, If I could work out how to put my resource box along with the articles it blasts out, I might keep it. Seem to be a centralized way to keep track of your websites, rankings etc.

Be nice if it actually worked though. Maybe I'll wait for 58 days.

bay37

I bought it because of the horrible sales page - couldn't resist it. Just wanted to see how they were planning to run the whole thing after the initial launch... It seems that they don't - it's a complete fail boat.

I hate asking for refunds, but in this case it was 100% justified. Clickbank for the win. I don't think they would've sold this many copies if not for Clickbank's refund policy.

Mangozoom

Not a sniff of a sale from this wonder product yet

bluet

I made some money off of it yesterday. I got a refund one minute shy of 24 hours from ClickBank. LOL

Mangozoom

I just recieved and email from Ian at TPS

As follows ...

I hope you are well.

We've been hearing about some really good results from many of you this week
- which is really great to hear!

However, for those still struggling... please do go and check the videos out and use the software! The automated CB hoplink feature is simply one component of this software... there is so much more! And my support team are at hand to help you along!

Many of you have been asking me about how to go about promoting a product when it comes to launch day. That's why I've been pestering my friend Craig Kaye to let me give you guys this absolute killer free bonus. Inside you're going to learn some incredible techniques on how to make huge profits from any product you choose to promote at launch day... this really is good stuff...

And the best thing is that you can use Turbo Profit Sniper to implement many of these techniques!

Wishing you all the best,

Ian

To be honest it left me feeling quite cross simply because the CB HOPLINK FEATURE is the product ... to suggest otherwise seems to contradict the sales page

Especially the image of the three boxes.

Anyway was promised some results this week and nothing has happened at all.

John

Ian Harmon

Hi John,

Still no results from me either, not even 1 hop lol.

I think I'll leave it until next week then request a refund.

JGK

Hello fellow bamboozled Warriors
I must have been high when I clicked buy now for Turbo Profit Sniper. 10 days in and my CB account is so empty it echoes...but not so my inbox which has seen a flurry of aff offers from Ian Ross. Very cheeky.
What is behind it do you think? Are they rotating display ads/hops though their sites/other sites?....if so with a CB gravity of 584 (dropping) the sales are so diluted that the few sales actually made go to those who got in first?

I wish it had worked but then again I wish that women found me as attractive and suave as George Clooney but alas...

Who would trust a product from Ian Ross again? In truth I am also ticked off at the Hard Cash Hijack seller as it was his hoplink I clicked

JDE

Good one! Great to see some humor here! Thanks!

Bronwyn and Keith

Hi All

Got our refund from clickbank and more emails that only "created Additional Confusion"

Anyway, glad we are out of it and will be unsubscribing from them as well.

Plus have identified the list of people (CARTEL) promoting it and will unsubscribe from them too!!!

Not playing with BS artists anymore.

Regards

Bronwyn and Keith

mikeveli20

Got the same email John and thought the exact same thing. TPS was supposed to be the product, not some little add-on to their article spinner or whatever else they've got on there. Also, not sure who these people are who are claiming great results lol.

Code64

If you still have your clickbank order receipt in your email account, simply forward that receipt to refunds@clickbank.com and you will be refunded.

jnavary

Would you mind revealing that list? I want to make sure I'm not subscribed to any of them.

Thanks,
Jim

gareththomas

I'm with Jim. Please reveal the list and I might be able to cut the number of emails I get down to a reasonable and manageable number at last! lols

I applied for my refund yesterday through CB. Am so tired of wasting my time on these scams. Seems like so much of what is promoted through Clickbank is pure garbage, riddled with "vendors" who are hoping that you'll be too lazy to hit the "Refund" button.

I have asked Clickbank where I can get ACCURATE Refund statistics, and they have not replied. This would indicate to me that they are more interested in protecting their vendors than their buyers or affiliates.

When using PPC to promote CB products, we cannot be successful with a product that has a high refund rate. You could spend hundreds, if not thousands of $$ on PPC for a single campaign, thinking that you're making money, and even increasing your bids as the sales roll in. Then a few days later, you start seeing the huge amount of refunds, and realize that you've lost money...and a lot of time.

Why CB will not provide Refund stats really concerns me. It seems that with all of the affiliates and vendors on the Warrior Forum, PLUS all of the affiliates and buyers on the WF members' lists, we, as a group could petition or demand that Clickbank provide us with accurate sales, refund and other vital statistics. This would help to protect both buyers and affiliates, and weed out a lot of vendors who prey upon the "newbie bucks".

Since Clickbank is the venue through which many vendors peddle their scams, shouldn't they be held liable, or at least somewhat responsible for the consequences of allowing these scams to be sold on their site, and profiting from them?

With all of the fake PhotoShopped Clickbank "Sales Snapshots", phony testimonials, inflated or false income statements or projections that are in so many of the products in CB's Internet Marketing niche, I would think that the Federal Trade Commission would see Clickbank as a One-stop resource for rounding up a huge amount of these fraudsters, investigating them, convicting some, and levying fines against many others. And all this, without even having to leave Clickbank.com.

I would like to see a feedback system, like Amazon's, which would allow buyers to rate the products they purchased. Certainly this would be subject to abuse, but it would be better than nothing. Some sort of verification process could be implemented to ensure at least a reasonable level of authenticity.

Even with a refund, vendors who intentionally scam buyers are stealing the most valuable and limited resource we have....time. Money can always be replaced, but time cannot. And the time we waste trying to implement the flawed strategies of these fraudsters, is time that has been stolen from time we could have spent with our families, friends and other legitimate business pursuits.

Anyone else interested in helping to clean up the Internet Marketing arena? It's starting to smell like "MLM".
