Truth about Aymen? Arbitrage Conspiracy -- What is Going on!

* I'm removing the original post because of privacy issues. When
Aymen takes care of it I might post it back up. He called me
to personally explain his situation so I'm respecting it.


I wouldn't be a good WF member if I didn't!!!

Like I said Aymen just called me few minutes ago and we talked
for about 20 minutes or so, really good chat!

He offered me to ask him what ever question I wanted regarding
his product and Wasabi8899.

So, I of course asked him what the deal was about Wasabi8899!
This is the answer I got and I personally believe it but you'll
have to make up your own mind.

----------
Wasabi8899 is a person that Aymen was helping out. He gave him
all the info needed to start promoting affiliate products but when
it came to actually taking action this person, like so many of us
didn't have a CLUE how to register or host domains! So he asked
Aymen for help. Teaching someone how to register a domain and
host a website could take many hours so instead Aymen just took
few minutes, registered the domain for him and made a quick iframe
website with his affiliate ID. So now the person could start sending
traffic to the site using the tactics Aymen taught him.
----------


Then he offered me $10.000 if I would just try his product and if I
wouldn't make at least $100k in 5 days he was going to pay it out
of his own pocket!


.... would have been nice but this is real life people!!


Believe the answer or not... I guess we'll just have to find out when
people ether start posting good comments about the course or
bad comments. Like I said I personally believe that Wasabi8899 is not
Aymen, that's maybe because I actually talked to him live on the
phone and he explained everything to me in details.

    • Okey.... Interesting!
      But do you believe Wasabi8899 is Aymen?

      Also the problem might be one of the "guru's" testing out a launch formula
      to see how people react to this! Not sure but it sounds like something they
      might do!!

    • Hmmm, dating and seduction are one niche. He sells that stuff online, therefore he knows online marketing. That's 3 of your 5 right there. I'm not sure what you mean by business venturing, but if you mean his Altitude product, that's also related to online marketing.

      I didn't know he did real estate, but it wouldn't surprise me, since many people with money are into that.

      Why do people follow him? I'm guessing because he's very successful at what he does.

      Have you ever seen any of his products?
    • I know Eben.

      I respect Eben.

      Eben doesn't need anyone's five figures.

      He is smart and has incredible integrity.

      The guy has a serious 20M plus a year business.

      You think he would jeopardize that for a bribe and lose credibility?

      I don't.

      Right now Eben Pagan is teaching a seminar on improving how you learn.

      I don't believe Eben has ever posted in the forum but I guess his success
      is bothering you.

      I think you owe him an apology or edit your post.

      I've learned a lot from him and there's lots more to go.

      And no, he didn't pay me to do this.

      You're picking on one of the good guys.

      Peace.
      • [ 2 ] Thanks
    • I can't speak for Eban's Business seminars, but I know some of his dating programs, and let me tell you, I would endorse them myself. He sells quality stuff, no doubt about that
    • Dude... don't say shit you have no clue about. That's just plain ignorant

      You'd be hard pressed to find anyone that has as much integrity that he does.

      The things I learned from this man have been directly responsible to adding a bunch of zeros to my income & for a LOT of other good shit happening in my life with women, friends, family, health.

      Please don't poison others with your unfounded rumors...

      Well on second thought, keep doing that so that people will think Eben is a crook and will be afraid to buy his shit.

      I don't need any more competition. Thanks for helping man.
    • harvey j.... your comments at the top are hysterical and SO off the mark... get off the hater-aid and stop smoking crack when you're on the warrior forum.
  • Yes... I personally think Aymen and Wasbi8899 are the same person
    but then again you never know and people just have to make up there
    own mind! It's going to be interesting if he makes his information
    private in the next days!

    • Have you taken screen shots/video of this before it all suddently dissapears ..
  • I know that Aymen is quite advanced with PPV/CPV and facebook marketing. Perhaps this is where the volume comes from?
    • [1] reply
    • Like I said, I'm not saying that Aymen is not making good money
      and that he doesn't know his stuff but it's hard to believe.

      Everyone starts somewhere but from the looks of it Aymen
      didn't get advanced few years ago. In fact I'm pretty sure
      he's not the brain behind the course!

      Am I right ?

  • Yes it is hard to believe - but the truth will come out eventually.
  • From the checks showing on the salespage, it looks like he really started to get it right near the end of 2007, and his $50k days are just in the last few months.

    Personally, he's selling a 2k course, and if I can make 2k more in the first month and save another year of trial and error, then I have no probs with him at all.
  • I can't take anyones positive opinion properly when they have an affiliate link in there SIG file i.e. templar and james schramko.

    • nice work!!.. did you check his DNF profile it says the business location is Dubai
      and some one told me he is from Egypt.. so there is some relation.
    • I have the same issue with people who don't know the guy and don't know the product but make wild speculations that are way off the mark. Imagine that.

  • Looking at the search results for wasabi8899, it is definitely him.

    The whois info on therichjerksecret is already private, but the iframe still shows wasabi8899...and that term brings up aymen-specific info, so this is the right guy.

    youtube video posted by wasabi8899
    Anyone that wants to check out Aymen, and get a fantastic education can go to all the discussions he's been in, and discover a lot of useful things - free.

  • Well there are two guys behind the launch. I don't know Aymen. But the other guy, I know is making good money. We bought the same course in PPC and CPA. He bought it six months before I did, and I remember all his posts in the forum, and the post he wrote 3 months after buying the course that he was in $10 000 every month. Don't know how much he is doing now.

    I have heard that it is possible to make $50-$100K day. And I think does really successful affiliates don't just hangaround here at WF
  • Hey Ebbi,

    They didn't mean for you to take the word "Conspiracy" literally! Lol.

    • "the truth is out there, you're about to find out where it's been hiding..."
      ;-)

      thanks, Ebbi!

      what really pisses me off is the price...
      if you make up to 100k a day and want others to succeed with CPA because you are about to launch your own CPA-network and you charge 2k for a course, well, I guess you can call that 'greedy'...
      I will definitely not buy this course and would rather see if a warrior here on the forum can give me similar information which I will be happy to pay for!

  • This proves nothing. In ten years time he may still be asking questions in forums. I'm sure there's not a point were you just.. stop learning.

    Good find none the less bro.

    • It proves he was asking "basic" questions that somebody supposedly earning $100,000 per day should not need to be asking and if he's asking questions of the kind shown why should I pay him $2000 to teach me, that's really the point being made.

  • Well, I am very excited to hear Aymen called you and you spoke for 20 minutes. I watched the video from his affiliate manager, Anthony, and it seems he was living in Montreal near Aymen, and Aymen was living with some people, maybe his brother, or some relative.

    Anyways, it's looking great, and I am excited as ever about the purchase I made, and my mega bonus offer still stands.
    • [1] reply
    • well okay Aymen,
      I'll have a look at your product for $5,000.
      that's 50% off!!!

  • Wow a lot of interesting stuff happens over night.

    I don't know the basis of the first post as it seems to be edited but where are those questions coming from in post #2?

    Aymen the man without last name called you?!?! Did your call display pick up his last name? World location?

    Spy work?!?!

    International Conspiracies!!!

    What the heck happened while I was sleeping?!!?

    God love the Warrior Forum!

  • Noah,

    I think the cat is out of the bag, since google has it in its index already (hint hint)...

    I also tagged this video with his name...

    Aymen's Controversial Launch
    It will be interesting to see how the "delay" affects sales at noon today...
  • Aymen and Emmanuel are Gauher Chaudhry's top students. These guys definitely know what they're doing and are definitely raking it in (although they aren't doing $100k a day consistently - not close).

    The whole "arbitrage" idea is misleading. This is just affiliate marketing. Traffic and conversion.

    Take the time to learn and run with credible networks (not the dbags who shave and scrub your leads) and you can make an amazing living.

    You're going to work though doing this. This isn't some automated ATM. Definitely not a "lifestyle business".

    Like anything, this approach works, but it's not going to fall into your lap and you have to be willing to commit time and CAPITAL.

    This seems to be a popular "technique" that's been used during a lot of launches by the guru crowd. I'm sure there will be some bonus where all the partners have a chance to get you on their list so they can carpet bomb your inbox with sales pitches disguised as content.
  • I was asked by a fellow warrior if it was okey for Aymen to
    call me and explain this whole Wasabi8899 issue.
    I of course said yes, because it's not like I did this post to damage
    Aymen, heck.... I wanted to know the truth and I don't think
    I could have gotten a better opportunity.

    The call was very interesting and after clearing this whole Wasabi8899
    issues I took the chance to ask him few questions regarding his
    product and methods. He was more than willing to answer all my
    questions and shared few gold nuggets along the way which were
    really impressive.

    Aymen actually took up the phone and explained himself and I
    have to show him respect for that. I can understand why he didn't
    want his personal information flying around the internet so I of
    course took it away like any good warrior would have done.

    How you translate this thread is up to you. I know I have changed
    my mind regarding Aymen because if he really would have been
    full of BS, he wouldn't have called me 1 hour after the this thread
    went live.

    Ebbi
    • [1] reply
    • I thought it wasn't his information, it was a student's ...

      Surely that's exactly what he would have done to try minimise the damage.

      His story in relation to the original information you had posted doesn't make sense at all.

      The fact that all the evidence is being rapidly removed, videos, posts etc on other forums only leads me to believe this smells fishy.
      • [2] replies
  • Let me add my 2 cents...

    Aymen sent me an email re a post on the blog before the launch saying he wanted to talk about the content of my post.

    so i sent him an email with my phone #, he called me promptly and we had a great chat for about 20 minutes.

    im a pretty good judge of character... i say hes a good guy, sincere, and he got where he is by being smart and working hard. he has the kind of personality where i definitely could see him just helping out a friend as described rather than getting into chit-chat about it.

    based on talking with aymen, i also agree with james schramko's comments on his blog that aymen is tuned into abundance thinking and is a generous person with high vision. he is very action oriented and high energy.

    finally, the voice i heard on the phone is identical to the one that did the big conference call the day before the launch day (that got delayed).

    so thats my contribution...

    peace to everybody, and happy holidays, david

    • Thanks Buddha...it confirms my conclusion on this.

      Brad Fallon had Aymen over to his house, looked at everything, and then decided to bring the top online earners to decide if it was as good as it looked, and that's kinda how we got to where we are. I am in, hundreds more are in, and it is full steam ahead.
      • [1] reply
  • Very good post, David
  • I got invited to Vegas but couldn't make it. I haven't met Aymen but I did meet his launch manager Anthony. As for the course I have no clue if it's good or not.

    You never really know until you buy it, take action, and see for yourself.

    This is the problem with big launches today - you get a sh*tload of affiliates mailing claiming it's the greatest thing since sliced bread and they have their own "reviews" but it's all to get the click.

    Even adding bonuses on top of stuff you're promoting doesn't make it any more legit.

    All I can say is I drove to Vancouver to meet up with their launch guy and interviewed him. We did a 1 take interview and it's below in my sig.

    If the sig is different then I've changed it to something else.

    So I'm not pushing it either way, just took the time to dig some extra info from Anthony, although my wife was nagging me to get back in the car and drive back over the mountains (5 hour drive).

    I'm not offering a bonus, but my link is somewhere to the right of the video and it's blatantly mentioned in the video.

    Cheers,
    Peter
    PS Anthony seems like one of the good guys - he patiently walked around with me downtown in the middle of a Xmas parade until we could find a quiet place to shoot this thing. He was up till 4am that day working on some email for the affiliates, so considering all that I thought he was pretty generous w/ his time considering he could have spent that time on other things for the launch which would have gotten them more traffic than my little 5 min video.
  • I have met Aymen that is why I like the course.
    • [1] reply
    • James, have you been able to see the course as it's being sold now? If so, do you know if there really are going to be monthly fees (membership, software, etc.) that were NOT mentioned on the sales letter?
      • [1] reply
  • I have left a message and will need to get some rest for a few hours. Will keep you posted.
  • So, can anyone loan me $2000 to get this program? It sounds shocking. It's either the greatest invention since the wheel or a scam worthy of a movie starring Leonardo Di Caprio.
  • wow jim- I'd be really concerned too... I mean that is a bundle of greenbacks. So this guy, Aymen, is basically like a masked superhero, huh? wow, I hope it works out for you.
  • The blog has been updated and all support tickets will be answered.

    There are no monthly fees Lance.
  • Well. I hope it works cos I'm in...

    It's the only course I've ever seen whereby the seller not only offers a money back guarantee but will pay you $500 on top if you are not satissfied with it.
    Try as I might and I am a sceptic at best of times but can't see anything wrong with an offer like that. Unless of course he dissappears into thin air with everyones money.. Hmmm..
    • [1] reply
    • Banned
      You might want to read that guarantee again. They do not say they will pay you an extra $500 if you aren't satisfied. Here's what they DO say:

      "If after following our entire 12 week system step by step, creating an average of 2 campaigns per day (approx 30 minutes each once you perfect the process), and you're still not making your money back for this course, simply send us your logins to verify the campaigns and revenues, and we'll refund you every single penny PLUS send you an EXTRA $500!"

      So, to claim this extra $500, you have to create just under 180 campaigns over 12 weeks. I'm pretty sure there won't be too many collecting that $500.

      By the way, not to be mean, but, does anyone else think the sales letter sucks? Maybe it's just me, but that sucker was painful to read.
  • I think these guys need someone to help with their public relations Hopefully, all this feedback will help them improve their product and resolve issues with existing and future customers by addressing their concerns.

    • Nice screen shot. I would love to make that kind of money. However, you said it was a CPA offer, yet I thought CPA was leads - getting paid for actions, not sales. Each transaction in your screen shot shows a sale and then a % commission of that sale. So people were buying different products and that's what you were getting paid for. Looks like 3 different products, according the prices. Isn't that just regular affiliate sales?

      I have no shock or resistance, just skepticism based off of the different things said and shown. If he actually showed proof of the amount of income he claims I would feel better about it and have total belief and inspiration from it. Seeing what's possible from other people just motivates me and opens my mind even more. He could even just show screen shots of his bank account or anything.

      He said in one of his interviews that some days they lose money. So, he's not making 50-100k a day, everyday. I think it's more like they hit that a couple times so are using that as their high number claim. Instead I would rather know about and appreciate knowing what his monthly average gross and net is, not a single day that is so wildly up and down fluctuating.

      I would appreciate if anyone who has been in this industry for a while can tell me how the current environment is for it compared to before. With the economy so tough and advertising budgets plummeting, are the rates these companies offering for each action drastically going down? I know it did with mortgage leads. When I did them before they paid $20-$150 a lead, and now it's like $3-15 or whatever. I also know that ads are much cheaper now and all media is suffering from losing revenue on not being able to fill their inventory, so ad budgets are down everywhere. Any input on CPA in regards to this? Thanks.

      As far as the Guarantee, it is very confusing, the language. Even before they changed it, it didn't say it was a 12 week guarantee, and now it doesn't say it is a 30 day guarantee. Both say it as though it is the min. amount of time before you can ask for a refund. It said AFTER the 12 weeks if you didn't like it, you can ask for a refund. OK, so AFTER 12 weeks, but BEFORE when? And now it says AFTER 30 days, it doesn't say before 30 days. So AFTER 30 days and BEFORE when? They should clarify the EXACT cutoff date for everyone. Name the actual calender date. When is the deadline cutoff that they would say - oh too late - you should of asked earlier. They don't say when that is. And for most people who ordered right away, they are not going to go back to the sales page to see if anything has changed, why would they. They read and they bought it, and they never emailed or posted a notice of these changes to their customers.

      There was this one that was 12 weeks or so course but their guarantee was only for the first 45 days. Fine, certainly enough time to see if the education is any good and what they are offering. However it was a total bait and switch in my case at least and was very deceptive. When I tried to sign up for it, they only took paypal, but paypal would not let me charge that much so I couldn't pay. I emailed them to see if they could take a different payment method and finally they got back to me after their launch had ended and told me that they held a spot for me and that I could pay using my credit card with another processor and gave me the link. The link took me to what looked like the Exact same sales page but with a different link at the bottom to the new payment processor. I just scrolled right to the bottom and signed up. The course was nothing like they claimed and was very low quality. I gave it a chance though, and a few weeks later requested a refund. I never heard anything back. I thought I had 45 days though as it stated on the sales page so I didn't panic or anything. Then when I saw the 45 days was coming up, I emailed them again to make sure I got a response before the deadline. They responded immediately saying that they would not refund it because I missed the deadline of 30 days. Apparently in the new, identical looking sales page link that of course I didn't bother to re-read every line of, they changed the refund policy to 30 days, but only for people who ordered through that page as opposed to the main page. Two different policies, and of course they had to of known that people already trying to pay would have already read the original sales page and not bother to read an identical one again to see if they sneakily changed any line in it to a new or different policy or what they are getting. Just trying to pay. They could of been upfront in the email they sent out. Anyways I forwarded them the email I had sent them a few weeks earlier and finally got the refund after much pleading and headache. They were absolutely dead set on not giving it, even though they knew what they did was highly confusing and unfair, having 2 different deadlines for their same customers. Doesn't make me trust these marketers that much anymore. All this hype, but read the fine print, save screenshots, save all emails etc. I don't want a refund if something is really good, but if it's crap and their sales pitch was all hype, they should stand behind their product. They didn't even offer extra help or any reason to stay with their course and make it work for me, just flat out - no we're keeping your money - you didn't read the fine print - sorry!

  • First I'm going to state my opinion as a customer
    and then as a marketer, because I really think all
    of you need to so the same!!

    Customer.
    If the training material starts to come in tomorrow
    and it's some useful stuff even if it's not the official
    week 1, I should be able to get a rather clear picture
    if this is going to be something for me or not.
    Of course I would love to think the guarantee starts
    in January but I'm not going to hold my breath.
    (Don't have a clue if does or not!)

    Marketer.
    OF COURSE... the guarantee starts the day a customer
    buy's the course. I personally would make it start
    tomorrow when people get access to the material.
    Would I wait until January... I don't think so!
    It's business folks and you need to start looking at this
    as you would look at your own business.

    Get your head out of the sand and start looking at
    others people products and you'll see exactly the same
    BS going on... this is just how things go. If you don't
    like it ask for the refund!!

    ----------

    Great example is (guru), (product name) product.
    There he's doing a 4 week product that costs if I remember
    correctly somewhere around $197... I was STUPID enough
    to buy it when it launched and it had to be the biggest
    pile of junk I have EVER bought! It's 4 calls, 1 each week.
    ((guru) loves his own voice and LOVES to talk about how
    successful he is)

    Each call is 1 hour filled with information about WHY people
    should buy all his upsell's! that's it.
    And you know what the funny part is! almost every upsell
    he's offering (think they ended in like 8) costs MORE
    than $197 ...
    You see, it wasn't even possible to do what he was teaching
    unless you would buy like 3 of his upsell's, these where tools
    and some more advanced training material! I thought I was
    getting it all in one package but I guess not... I wasn't
    even that excited about the methods, I just bought it because
    of the price... of course I should have known better at the
    time but I got tricked into his "customer funnel" I got out but
    he still tricked me


    When I, the customer found this out it only took me like 10
    minutes to send a refund ticket to his support.
    They answered and told me that it would be taken care of in
    the next 4 days, okay, I waited for 5 days and nothing happened.
    I send out another ticket asking for the refund and guess what
    happened. I got exactly the SAME answer, EXACTLY... It was
    just a copy, paste...

    I of course knew what he was trying to pull here... he was trying
    to make me forget about it so when the 30 days wen't by he
    was free. Instead of coming to the WF and bitching about how
    (guru) is trying to "steal" my money I just sad down and wrote
    another support ticket stating that if my refund wouldn't be taken
    care of in the next 48 hours I would start by calling paypal and
    get them involved.

    In less than 24 hours I got a message saying they where really
    sorry and it would be taken care of asap which they did and I
    got my money only minutes after this message.

  • I bought the course and really hope it isn't a major let down...

    They hype these things so much that its hard not to have extremely high, life changing expectations.

    Anyway, in my opinion, $2000 isn't much money for education... I mean, I paid over $15k per year for 4 years to go to college and I really can't recall learning a single thing... chicks and beer were good though.

    If it's a full blown scam, I'll be raging pissed... but if in 12 weeks I'm just a lot better at ppc then I'm sure it will have been worth the price of admission.

    Putting Karma to work for me I am going to pre-commit 10% of any income I make from this program to charity. [arbitrageconspiracygift*wordpress*com] Arbitrators Give Back

  • Hi Ebbi,

    any updates on how it goes with the program and the $100k in 5 days?

    • LOL. I wondered the same thing.

      I imagine Ebbi took the 10k to try the program, only an idiot wouldn't have taken that offer. Not to mention he was also offered 100k in 5 days.

      Anyways, Ebbi is gone by now. It's been about 5 days so I imagine he's on vacation in the Caribbean or something while his campaigns sit on autopilot bringing in 100k a day.

      Either way he should have gotten 100k either from CPA or Aymen.
      Good question. :rolleyes:

  • I believe you are talking about PPCF or payperclick formula!
    Many successful affiliates have and are coming out there.

    It's going to be interested when they launch in January!
    This is probably going to be exactly the same stuff as in AC
    but it might even cost more!

    Someone might think they launched AC so soon for a reason
    hehe

  • Hey gang!

    Its about 4am here EST. I just finished listening to the call.

    I've got one thing to say: Shock & Awe!

    Just the names on the call...WOW!

    I was so sleepy at about 10pm yesterday, however, I've been scouring the net looking for THE way to go in 2009 and BAM! I see this AC stuff.

    I'm can still "hear" Shawn Casey or Brad Fallon say something along the lines of ... Thank you for taking time out to do this, cos, y'know you could be out there making $1million and it'll take you 10 DAYS of work!

    Aymen, while humble and carefree and all, MUST'VE gone to bed wondering to himself if HE (AYMEN) REALLY did stump all the gurus when he showed them how much he was making and HOW he was making it!

    I think the guru grading needs to be categorized:
    1. Guru
    2. Super Guru
    3. Hyper Guru
    4. Uber Guru
    5. MIDAS (At this level, you literally mint your own gold bullions daily - $100k ++)

    I'm sure there are MIDASes out there making more than Aymen, however, I think I would give him MIDAS level because he's done it in less than 2 years (it seems) and this guy is 25 years old and just finished college!

    OK...

    I'm crawling to bed now, I hope my re-charged abundance thinking will let catch a couple of hours of sleep

    • See the TERMS OF USE at the very bottom of the page on AC:

      Its been updated to reflect the confusion about monthly subscriptions.

      SUBSCRIPTION TERMS - Ammended 12/14/2008
      The Arbitrage Conspiracy 12 Week Training Course (Item: Arbitrage-Conspiracy) does not have any subscription fees or costs other than the upfront course purchase price. The Arbitrage Conspiracy 12 Week Training Course (Item: Arbitrage-3EasyPay01) is an easy payment plan option which does have 2 additional monthly payments to complete the purchase. The easy pay details are displayed at checkout and again on the receipt after checkout.


      I was really looking for some kind of all together package that would save me time/money and pitfalls in pursuing this avenue. But now I am sitting on the fence when I was pretty interested in taking the leap of faith.

      Has anyone seen their Quickstart or has no one taken the plunge?

  • Enough with this BS.....

    DEAL WITH IT!!

    What's done is done and these boring comments won't do
    any good or bad. It was fine before the launch and even
    after the launch but this is pushing it! People that didn't
    even buy the course are the only one's commenting on this
    because they ether didn't have the cash for it or didn't want
    to buy it in the first place.

    So if you haven't bought the course why in the world are
    you pulling up some worthless crap about the fine print?
    People have been so close minded towards this product that
    they don't even understand that this is how the "big guns"
    do IM... Go to any other "guru" out there and look at their fine
    print and see if you can't find exactly the same BS about
    refunds and guarantees... I'm ready to bet my life on it!!!

    I'll even give you really good odds!

    AND.... the issue if people got paid or higher commission for
    submitting a testimonial is just ridiculous!
    I can GUARANTEE that the affiliates in the top 10 even 20
    didn't have to do something for getting a higher commission..
    If you truly believe that crap than you are in serious trouble.

    They control the lists so they have the power to get what
    they want. Do you think Mike Filsaime got 50% commission??
    Do you really believe Mike Filsaime only got 50% commission??

    Of course not... I wouldn't be surprised if he got close to 70%
    to 75% in commission.

    Move on people!!

    • Because some of the issues surrounding it are grizzly at best and this is a forum that discusses such issues. It's utterly irrelevent whether we purchased the course or not, you don't have to purchase a course to make the point it's shady to change a guarantee mid launch, etc.

      This is a discussion forum, and discussion is what you will get, good and bad.

      Nobody cares less whether a given affiliate gets 10% or 80%, it's not newsworthy, it is newsworthy however if they took a bigger % for giving testimonials.

      Deal with it as you said. These guys will need to take the rought with the smooth.

    • cant we all just get along!
    • Did they offer additional revenue for testiminonals , yes they did, case closed, it's unarguable and proven without a shadow of doubt. No apology I notice for the suggestion I was crazy suggesting they did.

      Two faced, interesting. I have twigged what your now talking about however and I guess I made a mistake trying to help you answering your PM on a 100% competely unrelated matter, that apparently warrants personal attacks. I'll ensure I help out less in future.
  • I might have came a bit strong against you Simon
    and in a more of a personal way and I will apology
    for that... It was uncalled for... But.

    Stating that the top affiliates had to give their video
    testimonial to get higher commission is something I
    have a really hard time believing and will never buy.
    Sure I agree that affiliates that aren't what we would
    call "guru's" or "big guns" got higher commission to
    make a video testimonial, like you said, it's stated on
    the website but what I have been trying to get a
    across here is if people really believe that the "guru's"
    had to do something special to get higher commission!

    These are people, every product owner would do almost
    anything to JV with and I'm pretty sure when they promote
    something they make their own terms... at least I would!

    Maybe we didn't understand each other and warn't talking
    about the same thing... that's probably why things turned
    out like they have.

    I asked you few questions and you where kind enough to
    answer them and for that I'm grateful... This "argument"
    has nothing to do with that, I'm not that cross minded
    I just believe we shared equally interesting stuff and that's
    why I didn't understand your point of view.

    Maybe you still believe the "big gun's" got higher commission
    for their testimonial and if you do then I believe our opinions
    just don't match. If you don't believe it this has been one
    heck of a misunderstanding.. hehe

    • Apology accepted, and thx. On this testimonial issue, nor would I buy it, but that's not what I'm saying, we are talking at cross purposes.

      I don't for a second think Brad Fallon / MIke F or anybody else of his ilk, had to do a testimonial to get a higher commision %. I would be amazed if on a virtual product they were not getting more like 75% commision. That's kinda moot.

      We are talking about different things yes. I just made the point that affiliates were paid more if they did a testimonial, somebody posted that they didn't believe they were getting 5% extra, I knew I had seen somewhere they were and posted accordingly, thats it, but it sure as hell doesn't mean I think Mike F and other big players had to go scrabbling for a camcorder to get their commisions upped. Or infact that the testimonials were even particularly relevent to the big guys.

      Yep it has, but as life's short and we both have $$$ to make, it's time to move on :-)
  • hehe... Yeah I thought we warn't on the same page
    there because this was starting to sound ridiculous.

    Both you and me didn't read each other posts with the
    attention needed because now I see you warn't maybe
    talking about he "guru's" but more the programs affiliate
    program. Then on the other hand I ask you the question
    if you believed the "guru's" were paid extra commission
    for their video testimonial and you answered Yes.. without
    understanding the questions I believe! hehehe

    Anyways you're totally right... short life,make $$$, now!

    I'm glad we worked this misunderstanding out!

    • I've been following this thread from the beginning, usually when I'm having my first cup of coffee and trying to pry my eyes open first thing in the morning. I read it in order to avoid trying to do something more valuable with my time and screwing it up before I'm fully alert.

      If you'll glance over to the left, you'll see that I've been a member of this forum longer than nearly everyone else in this thread. You'll also see that I have a lower post count than many who've yet to celebrate their first anniversary here. That's because I post only when I think I have something of value to say. So pay attention

      "Gurus"

      A "guru", by definition, is a teacher or mentor. Few of the people in IM and hardly any of the people on the top twenty affiliate list for this program qualify. I was recently invited to be interviewed for a project as one of 100 IM gurus. Though I respect many of those who have agreed to participate and consider some to be "gurus", I declined. I don't want to be known as a guru and, insofar as IM is concerned, consider the term to be a pejorative.

      When I was a "newbie" I was on dozens of lists, including those of many of the "gurus" touting this program. I'm not on any of their lists anymore and, in most cases, wouldn't approach a product they were offering with a ten foot pole and a gas mask.

      (There is one exception. I'm still on the list of one of the top twenty affiliates for this program and own three of his expensive products which I consider to be essential tools. I was saddened to discover that he was associated with this clusterfark.)

      Has no one else noticed that NONE of the so-called "gurus" pimping this product have posted here, though all are members of this forum and are surely aware of this thread, or that NONE of the real "gurus" in this forum are involved in this project?

      "Guru 'Secrets'"

      Forgive my redundancy: There are no "secrets". Spend an hour a day just reading the posts in this forum for a year and you will learn all you need to know about IM...FREE. If you don't want to spend a year in study or have more money than time, others have done the work for you and compiled the information in ebooks and courses you may buy, inexpensively, in the WSO forum or from their sig links. They are not selling "secrets" they're just charging you for having done your homework for you.

      "CPA Coaching"

      There are at least three frequent contributors to this sub-forum who offer one-on-one coaching in CPA and who have their own networks. Their courses are roughly the same price as Aymen's and they offer better payment plans, guarantees and refund policies. I happen to know that one of them is earning mid-five figures daily from CPA. The others may be also but I haven't investigated them. CPA coaching is a side-line for them and a way of recruiting the best affiliates for their networks. Why buy the hype from people you don't know instead of buying from people you do and who are NOT hyping their coaching to fleece newbies?

      "Caveat Emptor"

      Take careful note of the people touting this program. The majority of them make their living SOLELY from selling to "newbies"; a "low-hanging fruit" niche if there ever was one. Few of them make money by implementing the systems or products they sell. Let the buyer beware.

      All education comes with a price tag. Those who have bought this program will get their money's worth in education...one way or the other.

    as inexperienced marketers TODAY, like, right now!

    I've personally received more than 10 invites from 10 different
    "biz op" promoters about this seemingly great "thing" about a
    guy who is making over $100K per day online...


    Yep... pretty compelling huh?


    Well... check out the story behind the story before you
    go prancing in to spend BIG BUCKS on more "guru" garbage...


    Here is Charle's comment:

    ----------------------------


    Hi Phil,

    Arbitrage is the process of buying traffic at one price and then selling it to companies at a higher price. It has typically been done through sending traffic through Pay-Per-Click to offers which convert good enough to cover the cost plus a tidy profit.

    Since 2006 ... When Google started tweaking quality scores based on the landing pages (where clicks are sent) ... the arbitrage game got tougher and tougher. $.10 clicks became $5 clicks and the trend remains the same today... We tested it and continue to do so. Now you have to create landing pages for untested products to keep quality scores high and you have to spend a good amount of money hunting diamonds in the rough. Once you find those diamonds then everyone else running arbitrage comes swooping in which cuts directly into your profit margin.

    Now there are only a handful of promotions that work, it is very time consuming and more often than not, you're losing money in the process.

    In any case there a bunch of well known people that jumped on the promotion bandwagon for this deal. I have lost a ton of respect for a great number of people that I used to trust and respect because they have all shown their true morals by promoting this deal... They were offered handsome commissions to promote a system that is dying.

    Why would someone supposedly making $100k (PER DAY) want to ruin their own system by selling it to people for $1600? ... Why would well known and respected people promote this?

    MONEY and ignorance... It's a cash grab of phenomenal proportions. Many of the top marketers have never run arbitrage but because other well known people are promoting it... It must be good right? ... Wrong.

    I am keeping a list of all the "gurus" that are promoting this offer so I know who to trust VS whose morals are tainted toward profit rather then the well being of their followers.

    nice one thanks for the heads up
  • Claiming that CPA is a dying business and that profits are hard to come by is as ridiculous as that bozo who wanted to close the patent office in 1850 (or whatever) saying everything had been invented... (this was pre-toilet paper, mind you.)

    Do you realize how many huge businesses have never even heard of Affiliate Marketing and how many new offers are coming online everyday?

    Yes it's true that **** Berry's have run their course but to make a blanket claim that CPA's profits, as a whole, are getting squeezed, just confirms that you are resting on your laurels.

    You do have to work at it!

  • Not sure how much truth is behind the previous post considering that was his/her first post, but I do agree that AC was great.

    Ive heard many people who were not pleased with the course, but it was everything I was hoping for. I was also a bit more grounded in realizing the hype and claims are probably close to impossible to achieve. I wasnt aiming for 10,000 a day like most people who took the course, I was aiming for $400 a day.

    I wouldnt quit until I earned $400 and thats why I was able to achieve that goal. I will even post my original goals, which are still posted in 3 spots in my home office...

    First Month Goal $0 - break even
    Second Month Goal $50 per day
    Fourth Month Goal $100 per day
    Sixth Month Goal $200 per day
    1 Year Goal $400 per day


    I set these goals modest so I wouldnt give up. Anywho, I hope this at least inspires a few people or at least keeps people grounded when they take this or any other course. Sift through the bs sales hype and be realistic

    As for AC, I thought the original launch was disaster, but the course itself was solid

    • I'm always down for a free flight and wine and dining

      Honestbiz, you dont think the course was solid and gave a pretty well rounded teaching of internet marketing and ppc? ...not talking about the launch hype and salesletter hype just in terms of content?


      I wasn't naive enough to go into the course with unrealistic goals and falling for the 50k a day hype, but I think the course in general had very solid content and I would recommend it. It helped me navigate through the internet marketing jungle pretty well.


      In my opinion cpa is not hard, but you have to approach it in the right way. Think about any career in life, can you be good at it in 2 weeks...NO So dont go into internet marketing if you arent willing to put in the training.

      THink about taking one course in college. It lasts about 4 months long and between classes and studying it takes up a lot of time to get an A. Whether youre taking a course or nto, I find it hard to believe if you put in 4 months of training, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE MONEY.


      I think many people who go into IM through a course like AC or not, arent willing to work enough to get over even the first hurdle, they just want the fast cash as all the salesletters out there promise.


      For those newbies who are doing work and putting in their all, you WILL succeed. Your first of many profitable days are right around the corner.

      Good luck all

    • I don't know that people like to make a big deal out of nothing, AC is such as simple technique using PPC to promote CPA right? so..what? is it worth thousands of Dollars in course? NO.
  • So, a few years on.. Is anyone making £800+ a day from AC?
    • [1] reply
    • Hi Guys

      After couple of years from launching Aymen's arbitrage conspiracy,
      it is the good time to ask:

      1- Are there any real people who could generate $2000+ per day OR $100,000 per month, using ONLY Aymen's AC ?

      2- If yes, how many?

      3- Did they use only PPC, or something else?

      We need REAL people REALLY used Aymen's arbitrage conspiracy, not just anyone, to reply!

      Thank you.
