Just saw this link which looks like a free membership, but not sure it it's worth it or not.

Any feedback is appreciated.

    As far as I know it's actually not a free membership site. But Chris is a great guy, that's for sure.

    It's not a free site - you may get a trial membership for a period of time, but then it's a monthly subscription. And I second Marian's emotion - Chris is one of the good guys and an excellent teacher. I was a member at one point and would still be except I needed the funds for other purposes.

      That is the current price, although you can join his list and he gives away a lot of free info through his emails.

      I joined Chris' membership site about a month ago. Chris takes the newbie by the hand and shows you exactly how to make money online. His site is full of information on everything from building websites, SEO, facebook, building a list, making ebooks and tons of other stuff. In fact it is a bit overwhelming how much stuff he has on his site, but he takes you by the hand and shows you exactly which order to view everything.

      Much of the stuff he has on his site is two years old or even older. He shows you how to build a website using a program called Kompozer. Kompozer is still around and still works, but its very basic when compared to wordpress, but.....

      His site is going through a major revamp and all of the videos and courses are going to be completely updated by the first week or two of next month (may 2012). I was able to see a preview of the new site and it looks really good. He is also introducing a ton of new stuff to help his members.

      I will admit upfront, I am a fan, but I am also practical and will not spend that kind of money if I feel it is not worth it. Since joining Chris, I have settled on three business ideas, one of which I am currently implementing....a niche site that gives away a free ebook to build my list. I am using wordpress to build the site and since I know absolutely nothing about WP, it has slowed me down a bit, there are wordpress videos on Chris' site, but I am sort of waiting for his updated site, because there will be a step by step video course on building a website with wordpress.....in the meantime, I am learning what I can.

      The last thing I will say about Chris is that he regularly posts on his forums. He is very active in his community and people that are on his team are also very responsive. I have asked several questions on the forum and they are answered quickly. Chris is also a very nice guy. Sure, he is in this business to make money, but you can tell that he really cares about his members.

      If you are looking for a coach, I HIGHLY recommend Chris.

      Whoa! Not sure what you mean but you must be thinking of somebody else. Chris Farrell has thousands and thousands of happy testimonials in so many different places. He's like a rock star he's so loved by his membership. I was a member for over a year and I can tell you that the forum is crazy filled with people's praises on how he has helped them.

      Go look at IMreportcard.com and you'll see that he is the #1 most popular IM Coach and take at look at what hundreds of people say about him there.

      His teaching style is incredible. He is a mix between my best high school teacher and my favorite uncle. I have taken too many tutorials and entered into too many membership programs to mention here and I can tell you that Chris Farrell is in a league of his own.

      Even the top gurus that have elaborate and expensive programs have a huge flaw that Chris Farrell overcomes and that is that they talk over newbies in particular's heads.
      CF speaks at a level that even a grandmother (like me) can understand in order to implement.

      I would have surely given up if it hadn't been for his training and the personal attention that he gives you when you feel like you're in trouble or lost.

      Look. I'm not an affiliate so I'm not ranting here to get anything for it but your comment astounded me. I know you have him mistaken for someone else. There is another similar name in the IM field that I used to confuse him with when I first started, I don't know but you could not possibly be talking about Chris Farrell who is fabulous at what he does in his membership site. I even refer my nieces and nephews to him and whenever people ask me how I learned to make money online the first person I mention is Chris Farrell.

      Now he may not be for the more advanced marketer but honestly, I would challenge you to find anyone else online that does a better job at teaching a beginner or even an intermediate online marketer.

    He has a reasonably ok course which teaches people the VERY basics without really giving any specifics or direct 1-1 coaching.

    So it can be a good source for base knowledge but not that great for someone who wants to actually speak to the person they are paying.

      Actually you can communicate directly with Chris through is forums. He frequently pops up on threads and answers questions.

      He also offers one on one coaching for more money.

      But, everything he does to make money online, is laid out for you on his site, so you do learn the methods he uses to make money.

        You should check out the Honest Work From Home Success forum which he uses in some of his vids. Every other member in there is a farrellite. lol

        But i agree 100%. His course is very well engineered to send out lots of half trained monkeys with CFM billboards. Without, as i said before, imparting any solid skills or know how.

      I'm not young so I had a gazillion questions and they were always answered quickly and sometimes with personal videos or recordings.

      Just curious.... Where is there a 1 - 1 coaching for $37. a month?
      If there is such a thing... Where is it and how good is it?
      That's not rhetorical. I'd really like to know.

    I think Chris is a nice guy and I followed his course all the way through 2 years ago. I made no money.

    If you don't know how to build a website etc it is quite useful but he NEVER shows how HE makes money. He just talks about ideas like article marketing etc.

    I am pretty sure he didn't make most of his money writing articles to link back to his site.

    He also has a $800, 6 week course of some sort as well.

    He claims to be making well over 8 figures per year (80,000+ per month) through chrisfarrellmembershipsite.com. That equates to over 4,000 paying members apparently.

    Not sure what his churn rate is, but I do see what others are saying. He promises to teach anyone how to make money online (by teaching them how to copy paste the same old tired affiliate campaign for his own membership site!).

    He relies heavily on his ranking with imreportcard.com, which, from what I understand, is not partial (i.e., affiliate).

    Anyway, not impressed to say the least. Thanks for your feedback.

      how much are those members making?

        the chris farrell bashing is interesting. I bet most of you have never even seen what he actually offers in his membership site, yet still feel qualified to comment on the quality of what he offers.

        I doubt he personally sent any of his members here to push his site. He simply shows you one way to make money and that is through affiliating his membership site, which is a recurring profit. So, its only natural that some of his members will have a link to a squeeze page in their signatures......I'll probably do the same eventually.

        There are lots of members that are making money after having been trained by Chris, a lot of these very people act as mentors on his forums.

        Admittedly, his mentor program is geared more towards the newbie than it is for an experienced IM'er.

        As far as his numbers and "churn" rate (as someone called it) Based on the forum activity I believe its at least in the thousands....and you can see the date they became members and many of them have been with chris for several years.

        So...if your brand new to this and need direction, its a good place to start. A lot better than 90 percent of the WSO's I have seen around here, thats for sure.

        Oh and, "(by teaching them how to copy paste the same old tired affiliate campaign for his own membership site!)"

        He does show you how to do that, but that is one of dozens of different money making strategies that he teaches.

          Read Post #49 here:

          http://www.warriorforum.com/off-topi...-forum.html#49

          In fact, the more I research this guy, the more he sounds like a scammer.

          He fakes his own identity to promote his own site, then sends countless drones here to spam this board with useless affiliate links.

          In fact, I joined his site just to investigate this further and I have yet to see anyone there making more than a dollar or two using what he teaches.

          They simply fall over themselves to copy and paste the same old board spamming affiliate links and praying someone will actually buy something.

          A complete waste of money. Might as well throw it out the windows driving down the interstate.

            I did not see Chris admit to sending members here, but I am not calling Gibbons a liar either...obviously something happened, I dont think Gibbons would post that for everyone to see if there was not some truth to it.

            All I can say is that since joining Chris' site, I have gone from nothing, to finding a niche, doing keyword research and finding a high traffic keyword with low competition and landing the keyword as my domain name and am currently building a website around that keyword.

            I already have the material for an eBook that I am going to offer to get people to sign up for a list, I know the clickbank product that I am going to monetize with.

            I also have two other ideas, one is a authority site and the other is a site based on IM.

            I literally went from, no clue what to do, to all the above in the last month...and this is working part time at it.

            And at this point I still have lots more of Chris' site to explore. The one complaint I have at this point is that I am trying to build my site using wordpress and although there are wordpress videos on his site, they are not helping me much....currently this is my one hurdle.

            But, the site is going through an update and will have an extensive wordpress course in a few weeks. So im not too concerned.

            So for me, so far, the membership site has been worth it.

    Funny, after asking Chris Farrell to comment via his membership site forum, he locked us out and cancelled our membership.

    Guess that says enough about where he stands and what he is all about...

    The thing I just can't get over is Chris Farrell's dishonesty - both about what happened here recently on the Warrior Forum.

    Why come here to "come clean" and not tell the truth?

    And if what Gibbons said is not the truth, then why wouldn't Chris Farrell come here and set the record straight?

    In fact, I still see people spamming this board with chrisfarrellmembership.com affiliate links.

    Each will have to come to their own conclusion, but there is something obviously fishy going on.

    Maybe instead of "Dr. Glitz", Chris Farrell's nickname should be "Two Face"?

    What I like about Chris Farrel is that he starts from the basic of the basics and goes
    up from there. He doesn't assume that you know all this stuff and many who start on
    the internet don't.

    Also, he doesn't promise the world and making money at the push of a button, but
    tells you that you need to learn some skills, implement them, invest time and money
    and then you can expect making money.

    Chris is revamping his whole membership site at the moment and it should be finished
    by the end of the month or so.

      Do your research beyond what his affiliate army is promoting as the truth. Chirs Farrell also likes to use the IM Report Card as a basis for his credibility. Unfortunately, that resource is not biased and is also influenced by affiliate commissions.

      Just do your research, including here on this forum, and the truth shall set you free!

      Be careful recommending products you haven't personally tried or thoroughly reviewed. What one may say in their sales material can often be 180 degrees from what whom they actually are or what they actually deliver.

        I was a member there for several months at his old membership site. It's definitely a site for the totally new person to internet marketing.
        What I saw though, is a bit different than what I see being described here.

        Chris's whole philosophy was that in order to make money on-line you need to wrap your head around the fact that you'll have to learn some skills. His membership site was designed for people totally new to internet marketing and making money on-line. Chris taught those basic skills in a very clear, methodical way. He was very responsive in the forums, often creating an entire video tutorial just to answer someone's question.

        As far as self-promotion Chris seemed to go out of his way NOT to promote himself or his affiliate program. He definitely made members aware of the option but he only talked about it when someone was asking about it.

        Personally as someone new here the bashing is a little off-putting. It's something that I thought this forum was above, and in my short time here I've certainly seen people reprimanded for far less than the type of thing being said here.

        It's a different kind of IM site catering to a different niche, as I see it. But as far as Chris making his money from teaching people how to make money, I don't see how that's much different than almost everyone I see making any significant amount of money on-line.

        Making money on-line is the gold rush and most people I actually see accomplishing that are doing so by selling one type of "shovel" or another. A quick browse of the average WSO proves that. And inside the war room there isn't a single question being asked in there. It's all people giving away their internet marketing tools.

        Don't get me wrong guys, it's all absolutely wonderful and I couldn't be happier to be here. It's an incredible value. I am, after all, trying to make money on-line. And one thing I love about this place is that there are in fact so many people making money. I left Chris's site when I felt I was ready for the next level, and that's the same reason I joined this membership site and upgraded immediately.

        But you all know as well as I that when you first come into stuff green it takes a while to "get it". Paralysis of analysis moves in and before you know it all you're doing is reading and not doing anything. That isn't Chris's fault anymore than you can blame this forum for the people who still don't make money even with all this great content.

        I was there for some time and I think (along with everyone else that was there at the same time) the guy provided exactly what he promised you'd get when you join. In fact he provided value way over and above what he charged at the time. I know nothing of the new site's design, content or monthly fee though.

        Everyone will have a different opinion but what's going on in this thread is almost slanderous, imho. And I'm pretty sure such conduct is frowned upon in the "hey new guy read this first" sticky thread that is required reading before getting active here.

        Heck I saw someone just yesterday get jumped by several members for giving an opinion about a product, and it was far more tame than what's being said her; about a person. Try saying something even slightly negative about DAP and you'll be threatened with a law suit by it's owner. I've been here all of 3 days and seen that happen twice.

        So I'm just saying guys, let's take a step back and breathe here. Certain conduct is expected of new members here and I think it's only fair that as a new member I expect a certain example from vets. I think the op was asking if anyone has had any experience with CFM, and the way I see it you either have or you haven't.

    Once upon a time, I was a member and at that point of time, his course sounded very basic to me. Also, he was almost solely focused on the make noney niche and at that point of time, his members were actively encouraged to be his affiliates. Now all this being said, he used to participate very actively in the forums and gave all advice that he could. Almost every other member that I've met was an extreme newbie and I did not had much to learn from there. I was there about two years back and all my comments are based on my experience two years back. I do not know how it is run now. Anyway, he was very much liked by his members, thats for sure...

    I was one of the original members of Chris' membership site after it went live in spring 2009. He'd only been marketing actively since February 2008. I've been around IM since 2004 and I can tell you that you'd be hard-pressed to find a marketer with more integrity than Chris Farrell. MusicMinCoach laid it out well in his post above, so I won't be long-winded. It used to be very newbie focused. I'm not sure how much that's changed, since I've also been away since 2010. What I can say is that he goes out of his way to dissuade newcomers to IM from opportunity hopping. He has a huge focus on mindset, which is an interest of his, and is crucial to get straight for anyone serious about this business. He rarely pitches to site members -- at least he used to rarely pitch site members any JV products. And when he did, he'd go way out of his way to let you know that "there will be something for sale at the end of this webinar." Most of his webinars were non-pitch and he'd hold them on Saturdays to accommodate people's work schedules. Several former members have gone on to create very successful IM businesses of their own, including Kim Roach (who was already building when she joined CFM) and Jo Barnes, co-founder of the Social Networking Academy. Something a lot of people don't know is that Chris occasionally made financial accommodation for members who were having crises or trouble paying their fee -- and he was very quiet about this. Has he created a lot of affiliates? Yes! That's because from the very beginning, Chris designed his membership site to both provide training (he literally gave away a year's worth of autoresponder messages plus newsletter templates) and grow his affiliate network. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with doing that, by the way. In fact, anyone seriously interested in IM would do well to sign up for his site even if only for one month. You'd see how IM can be done well when it's done with integrity rather than by selling false hope.

    I'm put off by the number of people giving his "21 days to success" course a positive review on IMReportcard.com. Every one of those reviews seems suspicious to me. it's almost s if he's asking his students to say something nice about him....
    What I'd like to know (as of every guru) is the following: when the rubber hits the pavement, how many of his students are actually making money from his course 6 months down the road? Plus, how much money is he making from IM in comparison to the memberships of his Online Marketing course?

      I was a member of CFM around 3 years ago but only for 2 months. In that time i made no money at all to be frank.

      21 days to success is actually not a bad course. However it is very very basic and will only give you the barest of understanding. He does explain very well but there is (or was then) a lot of wind in each video i would say each video about 50% info and about 50% "lovely cup of coffee" "Just took Mr Jenkins (or whatever his dogs name is) for a lovely walk"

      The rest of the vids are along the same line. They do tend to offer a bit more info but all in all the main theme of the site leads you to resell his course with pre built squeeze pages.

      The forum in CFM is ok but most of the posts tended to be to do with his "accountability" which was reporting back after each step. Either that or people back slapping and saying how great they think the courses are.

      I'm not aware of many people earning money while members but i will not say the courses are not valuable but i would say that 21 days to success would be the sort of course you could put your grandmother on to help her get her basic understanding of IM. If you want more in depth help and direct mentoring best to seek help elsewhere.

      I've been a member and I can tell you that I've never seen him ask anyone to go give him a review anywhere. I said it before but it's worth mentioning again; He isn't for everybody. Who is!? But he definitely is the best for his target audience which is the struggling beginner.

      To address your other question about students "Actually" making money from/because of his course... I most certainly am and not selling his products either. I took what I learned from him and I have developed an "Authority" site that has nothing to do with internet marketing but I could never have done it if I hadn't found the Chris Farrell membership where I learned the basics.

      Unlike others on this thread, I don't know him personally. I wish I did, but he has a gift for making you feel like you do know him or at least want to. He seems very approachable and that makes it easy to ask the kind of questions that a beginner needs answer to but feels stupid asking a guru that is talking over their heads.

      The other thing I used to like about his membership was that he sets the stage for people to be nice and helpful to each other.

  • Hi,

    I am a member and have been since 2009 and for the free web hosting alone which is unlimited to as many websites as you want, I think the $37 a month is small change compared to what those who actually follow through as opposed to simply skipping though the training videos and doing almost nothing and worth every penny?

    I am making money online, not thousands a day but more than any stupid job ever did before I quit forever working for money, so my verdict is to join but only if you do the required work and also look elsewhere for more advanced methods once you are no longer green and wet behind the ears?

    As to what some are saying, that one should join for the $4.95 for 7 days and do as much as possible before cancelling because $37 a month is too much, I say do the required work he sets you and the membership will pay for itself eventually. The only time success comes before work is in a dictionary as Chris often rightly says.

    Oh and yes I personally know and have met the man and his wife several times and he is the most humble human being despite his now 7 figure earnings that I have ever met and I consider him to be more of a friend than a mentor?

    Still it is up to everyone to make up their own mind as nobody can please everyone all the time, not even Chris Farrell. After all opinions are like bums, everyone has one.

    Stephen & Jennifer.
