The Magic Bullet System

OK, I CAN give a decent overview of Magic Bullet and the bottom line is it's worth it if you *really* want to get into the sleazy world of PPV which isn't really my cup of tea (although when I tested it I found it QUITE easy - and anyone who has URL harvesting methods already probably will find it pretty easy, too...especially if you have your OWN unique methods of harvesting). And there are SOME (few) legit offers in CPA networks that will work on PPV - or you could use it to build your own list, but you definitely have to watch quality WAY more than say on PPC.

OK, with THAT out of the way

I did get a chance to peek under the hood of Magic Bullet System from a friend who used it and if you're going to do PPV it's pretty darn brilliantly done. I think at the time it was $4,000 and I priced it out comparing it to all the tools I used to use in the PPC days - LPGen, SpeedPPC, 3rd party tracking programs, bid management, offer research, etc. and if you look at it that way it's a steal for everything you're getting.

I can't remember if they had a way to stack offers at the time (like you can do in OpenX).

I've lost a bit of my memory of it, but I do recall that it made tracking and analyzing conversion rates, etc. easy - + they had a system whereby you wouldn't have to have to place pixels on every single network if they had an agreement with that network (I think I'm right about that).

Bottom line in my opinion - if you ARE going to do PPV I think Magic Bullet is well worth the price.

As to where it stores the data - the old version did store the data on their server, so if that makes you paranoid, then you'll want to consider piecing together stuff you can run on your own server - LPGen, Prosper, etc.

MB will be a GIGANTIC time saver if for some crazy reason you want to get into the crazy world of PPV where your account manager might tell you that the best offers are those "Google Money Tree" type offers and then explain how they are working on a way to hack into facebook pages to run their own ads (seriously, one MAJOR network showed us how they were doing this). LOL.

The only thing I remember that sucked was their URL harvesting tools. They were really lame at the time. You'd be better off with AffExpert (unless MB has DRASTICALLY improved that piece).

In the original version it was stored on their server. Don't know about new version.

Yes, you can use it for things other than PPV/CPA. I bought the system and tried promoting some of the more reputable CPA offers out there.

Eventually I decided to develop my own info product instead of promoting CPA. And, I've used some of my Magic Bullet training to sell over $4000 in 12 days. So, yes you can use the training and tools for things other than CPA.

I think the training is excellent. And it comes with a boatload of tools. Once you use their tools, you can always go off and find other tools if you're concerned about anything being stored on their servers. Or, if you just find a better tool out there to get that particular job done.

But, they give you everything you need to get started (training/tools).

Of course as someone mentioned earlier, you have to put the time and brain energy into it. And, you'll most likely lose money before you make any money.

Don't have time for a rant yet, but I was only aware fo the focus of mb 1.0 on ppv - so you may be quite right.
