Default Has anyone used phone broadcast club or ibuzz pro?

I was recently presented with these 2 options in lead generation. I would like to know if anyone has ever used either phone broadcast club or ibuzz pro to generate leads for their business?

Hi, Chaynes,

I have used ibuzz pro.

The person I bought it from offered 50,000 free leads as a bonus. I tried the first 10,000 and did not get any response. The only responses I received were from people who wanted to be taken off the list. Some told me that they kept getting calls. Other people called me back and tried to pitch their program to me.

On the other hand, some people are doing very well with it. It helps if you have a substantial marketing budget to pay for the calls. Some people are doing broadcasts to 10,000 people a day. It's a numbers game. The more people you contact, the more prospects you will find who will join you.

Also, they have just introduced a new version, ibuzz junior, which is less expensive up front. The calls cost a little more.

If you decide to join, I would join under Leroy Lehr or under someone who is on his team. He is an excellent marketer, and has fantastic webinar systems in place that your prospects can look at right away, instead of having to wait for the live webinars.

He has many capture pages and websites that you can choose from in the back office. And he is always adding to and improving the system.

He also has good lead sources.

You can promote ibuzz itself, another program, or both.

There is more to the system, for example, monthly costs, and how much you get paid for signups, etc.

I think you can join for free to check it out.

You could send him an email or call him to find out more.

He calls his team, the Money Masters Team.

I am no longer with the company.

Joan

Thanks for the reply. I was actually considering using it not for my online business but as a way to generate leads for something I am doing offline. Also I noticed phone broadcast club only costs $100 initially and it seems like you get almost the same product.

Actually you come off better with Phonebroadcast Club as far as fees are involved...

My 2 cents...

IBP is a phone-spamming operation. Apparently there is neither
a real address nor a real phone number where you can reach
the people running it. What does that tell you about their
operation?

Phone-spam sucks. Those asswipes who run these things
belong in jail.

Phone Broadcast Club (PBC) understands that there is competition and we welcome it. The closes competition we have is one such program charging $5OO to join, $5O set up and $27.95 a month, charges 1.9 cents a call, no audio library, less archive leads, no private label right (PLR) ebook library and does not have a complete Business to Business (B2B) list.

IbuzzPro isn't phone spam, both PBC and IBP offer useless leads.

You can easily generate your own leads spending a few hours a day loking for phone numbers.

Reason why it's not phone spam as Loren said is these people getting called are advertising their numbers somewhere on the internet like Craigs List and BackPage.

Therefore they asked for a B2B call...
Therefore susceptible to getting calls of that nature.

I haven't used Phone Broadcast Club but I do know that IBUzzPro does have a lighter less expensive version that directly competes with Phone Broadcast Club.

I bought IBuzzPro Junior for some of my team members to use since it was a good marketing fit for them.

IBP has pretty good hi-tech automation - press 1 to hear more, press 8 to get removed forever, press 9 to direct connect to live person etc...

IBP also has good tracking to show you how many people connected, tried to transfer over,how long they listened to the messages, etc...

IBuzzPro + Phone Broadcast Club Reviews | MLM Network Marketing Training with Dan McGonagle

I think people are more concerned with the up front costs and compensation plans of IBP, IBP Jr. and PBC rather than the effectivenes sof the tools themselves.

Both programs offer useless, beaten-to-death leads.
IBP Jr. costs same as PBC

Tips ofr using either:

Hire a Pro to make your presentations or use a default messages until as such time as you can make messages that are just as good.

Hi Chaynes,

I am a member of ibuzzpro under Leroy Lehr. Unfortunately, I have not used it much due to health reasons. I used to call leads all day long with my network marketing biz and wanted to use it for the contacts I already had but I didn't because of health. I only wish that I had had the system when I first started network marketing. It would have saved me a ton of time and money.

Leroy has now switched to Phone Broadcasting Club because he says it's a better/cheaper plan. I haven't looked at it yet but will as soon as I feel like talking to people who want to know about my biz.

Let me know if you want to know anymore about Leroy's team.

I was wondering what system is best, and what team to join? I read on this blog about a team with Leroy Lehr, does he have a web site so I can check out, and is he a legitimate person?

For what it's worth, my experience with iBuzzPro (IBP) in particular and voice broadcasting (VB) in general was largely negative.

Though I worked at it very hard for several months, spent hundreds of dollars on leads (from various sources) and did scores of broadcasts, my results were very poor, to say the least.

I think out of tens of thousands of phone calls, I actually managed to talk with (followup) with only a handful of people who were really serious. Despite the "screening" process of VB, there were still an awful lot of time wasters and tire kickers. Many people who expressed interest could not be reached at all.

I found it weird, frustrating and ultimately draining (of more than just my wallet). Which was too bad, because I'd had very high hopes from VB in the beginning.

I tried all sorts of things to get it to work: informal sounding broadcasts (just my voice in a conversational mode). Professional ones (with music and sound effects). Short ones. Long ones. None of it seemed to matter. Despite dozens of different messages promoted at different times of the day, I had little success overall. Ironically, I've been told I sound "too professional," which may actually have put people off.

I had very little luck. In fact, I got just as many people screaming and yelling at me for bothering them as I did in the way of leads. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it), the numbers were small in both cases.

On the other hand, the informal group I was a part of (my sponsor, his sponsor and a handful of "related" people in the up/downline) had some folks who were doing really, really well with VB (ostensibly). Strangely enough, it was one little old lady (who sounded like it too) who seemed to be having the best results.

One thing I repeatedly ran across was people who were angry because they'd asked to be removed and were very upset that I hadn't removed them. They seemed to think that I was the one they'd talked to before! Now, IBP has a method where people can opt out with the touch of a button, but in my experience the ones who are really mad don't pay any attention to this. Others just want to scream at somebody!

Some will even make it a point to track you down on your live number to yell at you! Now, that's a motivated person, but not exactly a buyer. People threatened to sue me, and one guy even said he'd hunt me down and kill me if I called him "again." Now, I didn't take any of this seriously, but who wants to deal with it, either?

Further, for those who are not technically savvy and not inclined to learn, VB may be too demanding anyway.

If you DO use IBP (or any other voice broadcasting system) I recommend that you use a voicemail system (I found eVoice to be really good) so you don't have to sit by the phone and you don't have to deal directly with the enraged. However, I still found that getting half a dozen pissed off messages every day was more than I wanted to deal with, especially considering that the upside (what there was) was so small.

Your milage (of course), may vary.

Finally, Congress just passed more laws further restricting telemarketing. I'm not sure how this effects IBP, but one would do well to look into this before investing heavily.

I'd like to address a few points Mann made with respect to his experience.

1) Angry people.
- - My response: He's correct, there will be some people who for some reason won't "press 9" to be removed. Here's my work-a-round solution.

On my voice mail message (what they hear after the "press one") I conclude by saying:

Also, If you forgot to press 9 to be removed from my call list, just leave your number and Ill remove your name manually, unless of course your really upset that I'm telling you that you can have hordes of people calling you on demand, then maybe I'll get you a Starbucks card or something and we'll part friends, OK? Go ahead, leave your name now..

This pretty much nips it in the bud. So far, no one has even asked for a Starbucks card either. (:

2) Mann states "I think out of tens of thousands of phone calls, I actually managed to talk with (followup) with only a handful of people who were really serious."
- - My response: There is an art to communicating on the phone and how to correctly follow up with your leads.

For me, it really comes down to how I posture myself. Here are some strategies that I use that have proven to be succesful for me:

A) I'm a busy guy. I only a have a minute to talk with them as I have many other people to get back too (which is true when I do a broadcast). This technique is attractive to the prospect - you are in demand.

B) Be helpful. I communicate the idea that I'd like to help them out and I have solutions to their problem. I never come across as needy. Bottom line: I'm there to help them.

C) I collect their email address and send them links to my web pages and blog. This build credibility and let's the prospect get to know me and see that I'm a real guy.

D) If they are by the computer when I call them back I walk them through opting in to my web site. This way I get them into my sales funnel. I have a series of autoresponders that drip my campaign. In addition, I'll do email broadcast of any news-worthy items. My goal is to keep the opportunity in front them - again build a relationship and exposure.

E) I ask them to get on the evening conference call. I ask for a commitment before I hang up. If they say "yes" then I ask them if it would be OK if I call them after the call to see what they thought. The conference call provides 3rd party validation.

F) I send them a link to my recorded webinar that does all of the telling and selling. This gets me out of the salesmen role, delivers the information, and frees my time. My philosphy is to simply: be a conduit to helpful information.

F) I follow up after the conference call and simply ask "so tell me what you thought?" This get's the conversation rolling. Focus on building trust and a relationship, This will separate you from 99% of the marketers out there.

The magic of voice broadcasting happens when you make that human connection, have a system, and follow through. I hope this helps!
