Bob Serling - Million Dollar Licensing

Here's my review of MDL.

I opened up the box and found 2 large manuals (one is over 300 pages, the other about 80 pages), a 12 CD set, a 6 DVD set that is basically bonus interviews and case studies, some quick start materials, and 2 bonus pamphlets with some detailed questions that past users have asked.

The funny thing is, I went right to the 300 page manual and flipped it open. To my surprise, I found 50 - 100 pages are inserted UPSIDE DOWN..... so that sort of turned me off from the start. Then I randomly went to the first DVD and popped it into my DVD player. It was a rather bland power point presentation with Bob Serling and a guest talking in the background about the concept of the course. It was kind of boring so I turned it off.

At this point I was a little disappointed by what I saw. However, I put the materials down for a couple of hours, then came back and opened up the manual and started from Chapter 1.

The guide so far has been amazing. There are some great things in here that I've never seen in any other Offline course I've purchased so far. The other manual that is around 80 pages in size corresponds to the content in the large manual.

I've also listened to the first 2 audio CD's that go along with the first seven chapters of the book and I'm enjoying them so far.

So anyways, this is as far as I've gotten, but from what I've read and heard, it's an excellent course. Is it worth the price? I think so. There's more than one strategy to implement so it gives you a lot of different ways to implement this system.

This is outside of the IM realm, since you're working through the post office and talking on the phone with clients. However, the best part is that you really don't need to do any face time. It's all phone and mail.... except I've got some alternative ideas to implement this. We'll see how it goes.

So that's all I have for now. I'll update more as I go through the course

  • I had a deal for $1000.

    I took Bob's advice.

    That $1000 deal turned into a $20,000 deal.

    Nuff said!

    Thanks bob.

    • Jason,

      I saw you posted this in another thread about Bob... but can you elaborate a little bit on this? Did you learn this from Bob directly, or did you get your hands on the course?

      Not looking for specifics, but I'm curious about the course itself.

      Thanks man
    • How do I get the course? Do you know?

  • I just started putting some of the course into action... we'll see what happens

  • I'm anxious to hear too. I found the free vids really interesting and it seems like something that would really suit me since I have spent all of my careers connecting people (namely executive search & real estate,) If I can do something with the free stuff I will definitely buy to say thanks and learn more. This sounds amazing and thanks for the great post Brandon and you too Jason.

    As an aside, Bob Serling has a really calm style that would make you want to be his student! I like his low key style. Wish I had 2k....
  • Alright, see the first post, I've put some comments in there of what I've found so far.

  • Serling is a genius. I was attracted to this product after seeing the youtube interview that he made. This program has the potential to make anyone a rich man.

    • I now own this product. Thank you ebay!

      I have heard too many good things about this to not get it, so I will be sure to share some thoughts and hopefully successes once I have it in hand.

    • Can this program make a non-US also a rich man? I mean to ask whether the activity is limited to US only...

      Thanks in adv for the reply.

  • I took his advice and made $6,200.. it works for me.. you just have to apply yourself just like anything..
  • I really want to get this! But, I shouldn't because I still have so many courses to go through. When was this course made? Do you think any of the methods will go out of date any time soon?

  • Brandon, I just watched your hospital video....all I can say is ...WOW, what a fighter you are.

    You have obviously been thru some tough stuff! and, I'm so happy to hear you've had success with MDL. You really deserve some breaks man, it seems.

    I did check out the 5P site but it was down?
    Anyway, hang in there, with your spirit and will power I'm sure you'll turn the corner with your health. :-)

    • Hey Bruce - I ended up taking that site down because what I've decided to focus on is doing launches for other people. One of the concepts that Bob talks about in his course is licensing out a proven marketing campaign to company - well I have used Mass Control and PLF for myself and a few friends a number of times and produced great results..so I decided to do it a few more times for money. It's been working very well for me, in fact when Jeff did his recent Product Launch Manager Even in LA he talked about my success in one or two of his launch videos.
      Since PLM I've managed to land several clients in the IM niche, where as before the vast majority of what I was doing was Forex and the stock market, I've now got signed contract with three big name people who have all done $1million + IM launches to manage launches for them.
      It's been pretty amazing..and beyond anything I'd have ever expected.



  • Brandon,
    I sent you a PM a few days ago....take a look.

    • [1] reply
    • I would be interested in picking up a used copy. Please contact me if anyone has one or you know where I can pick one up.
  • In terms of the results I've gotten. I did a few things with MDL. The first few deals I did, I just put some people together and did some JV's. That made a few thousand dollars. Then I did a couple of Past Client Reactivation Campaigns for people. All told I made about $30K doing those.
    I then decided to focus on doing product launches using Product Launch Formula and Mass Control for clients. When I had that video My medical debts where over $500,000. I started doing launches for people for a pretty small upfront fee, plus 10% of the launch. By doing that, I've managed to get the debt down to just under $50,000 right now. These have all been launches in the stock market, forex market and real estate.
    I went to Jeff's PLM event last month, and since then I've signed up a few more real estate and forex clients who's launches should all do 500k to 1million. I've also taken on three pretty big name IM guys (you'd know the names) who have all done $1million + launches who have hired me to do launches for them coming up...

    I also have a girl who's amazing..stood beside the entire time I was sick, and I'm building a really great relationship with her..so all in all, Id have to say that life right now is as great as it was bad only a year ago.

    Brandon

    • Glad to hear things have worked out so well for you Brandon!...financially, you seem to have hit a home run by reducing your medical bills that much so quickly - WOW! ...what an achievement.

      I love to read stories about deserving people who are able to turn their situation around.
      I wish you continued success and good health. :-)

    • Just fabulous Brandon. I don't know you - of course. But your stick-to-iveness is commendable.

      Best to you.

    • Do you know the correct forms to use for the Tollgate JV. If so, could you forward them to me? I would like to try this for free since I can't pay for the new MDL 2.0 course. Plus I think I may have already found a company and product to do a Tollgate JV with and I'm ready to mail the letter Bob Serling gave in his free videos to inform both of what I can do for them. Thanks!
  • Steve,
    What is the difference between your course Offline Marketing Pro and Bob Serling's course in the content ?
    Thanks
  • I used Bob advice and turned it into an easy $300K business... Bob's the only guy you should listen to.. he has the real results.

    • Hi Chris

      It was great to see your review. I am beginning to start my own campaigns from Bob Serling

      Do you implement all of the 7 strategies or you only deal with PCR?

      Also, are you choosing a target market to work with or you are just contacting various businesses?

      Sorry to be a pain, just gathering minds

      Regards

      Taz

    • Yes Bob's system's work. However like anything they require a fair amount of work to set up finding the companies then a little time with the companies. As stated already you also need some capital to start with.

  • Let's say I say to you here's a method to make millions:

    What is it?

    1) You find someone offline or doing a really bad online job who has a great unique product that is (could be) in demand. You have to make a call here.

    2) you strike up a joint venture but you secure "exclusive rights to it" This is SOOOOOO imprtant. no exclusive rights do not do it or you wil lbe fighting 1,000+ affiliates in no time.

    3) Now you market that product/service.

    Presto.......now what's the point in asking "how many made a million from this idea so far?" We all know 99% of people are lazy asses who jump form one magic pill to the next and will not focus long enough or put the effort in to work something. All those millionaires you see......how many are actually smarter than you are? There's no "trick to making money". Thank me later.

  • Steve,

    Did you sell Offline Marketing Pro? I'm asking because I tried to send you an email earlier, went to http://www.offlingmarketingpro.com and realized it is now being promoted by a Don Leadman...or are you Don Leadman?

    Best,

  • He sold it a while ago...

  • Interesting course...plenty of good ideas and actionable concepts. Of course, you'll still have to have the grit to take action to make any money.

    I did have a major disappointment with the course, though. I'd presumed that Bob would supply us with at least one of the licensing letters that he always talks about, the ones that make the big money. But no, he just tells us ABOUT the letters, and how we can somehow arrive at our own winning letters if we just send out enough of our own attempt until we eventually end up with our own winning letters, through the process of testing and elimination. Well, duh! I already knew I could eventually come up with a winner, as I'm a professional copywriter. But I had expected that he'd supply the winning letter(s) so we wouldn't have to start at square one. In fact, that's the biggest reason that I paid for his course...to get his winning campaigns. As you might suspect, though, he will supply you with those winning letters, but ONLY if you decide to pay him for a very, very expensive upgrade to his coaching club (as I recall). Maybe it would be worth it, but I greatly suspect that most everyone who bought the course was hoping (expecting) to get access (and rights) to those winning campaign letters.

    There's another licensing course out there, by my friend Ken Kerr (who sadly passed away several years ago). I was first introduced to Ken by my friend Raleigh Pinskey in Las Vegas in 2002. Ken was the nicest guy you can imagine, and has stellar credentials: Creative Director for Walt Disney Epcot and Disney Japan; responsible for billion in revenue by licensing the Smurfs, California Dancing Raisins, Woodsey Owl, Gummi Bears, Tiny Toons, etc. Ken offered a very useful and interesting Licensing course. This product included these two substantial courses (along with other bonuses):
    -Licensing: How To Make Millions The Hollywood Way!
    -Mouse Power - The Million Dollar Licensing Secrets of the Magic Kingdom
    Ken sold all of this for around $300, and this included personal access to himself. After he passed away it was marketed as low as $99, at this site: Hollywood's Licensing Secrets Revealed (not an affiliate link, and in fact the course is not currently available).

    I suspect that Bob got at least some of his inspiration on the road to licensing from Ken, though it's just a guess. Anyway, if you come across any of Ken's material, grab it while you can. It's actually a physical product, in ring binders. And it contains a ton of information that I've never seen anywhere else. Owning both Ken's and Bob's courses at the same time is quite a treat.

    • Salesmanship In Print,

      Nothing like selling a high priced course... and leaving out the most important part.....

      Oh... wait, that was an additional upsell.....

      Thanks for sharing....

      I know to avoid ALL his courses in the future!

      Add him to the "never buy from again list" with Marlon Sanders.

      All The Best,

  • I picked up Bob Serling's Power Copywriting for the Internet yesterday. Have yet to delve into it, but Marlon Sander's likes it. Will see if I have Bob's Million Dollar Licensing.
  • Okay, I know it has been over a year since any postings on this thread and I am wondering is everyone out making so much money that they don't have time or interest to post here? OR, did something happen that no one cares to talk about?

    MY QUESTION:

    What happened to Bob Serling? All his courses seemed to drop off the face of the earth. Is he in jail? ;-) I don't get it.

    Can someone give me an update. I have only recently learned of the MDL program and was doing some research to find that for what appeared to be a great product has become a ghost town with little trace as to what happened other than URLs that lead nowhere.

    HELP!

    • Bob is alive and well, as far as I can tell. I still get emails from him on a pretty regular basis. In fact, three days ago I got an email from him saying that he was reopening the "audit version" of his MDL course.

      If you send me a private message I'll forward the email to you if you want.
    • I second this...

      Any actual success stories from this course?
  • Apparently Bob Serling is still around, he has reactivate his Toll Gate JV course: Bob Serling's Million Dollar Joint Ventures Training

    However, I PERSONALLY have not heard from anyone who has actually earned any income from using what they have learned in MDL2.0.
    • [1] reply
    • I liked the first MDL more.

      It gives you a short introductory letter you can swipe in order to approach future clients, which makes the process a lot easier.
      In the 2.0 version, the strategy changed to approaching businesses you already know, which might be harder for newbies without a lot of contacts.

      As I now have both, I'm putting my old 1.0 version if anyone feels courageous, give it a shot. As with everything, it's not gonna work out if you call one guy, he tells you to get lost, and you spend the next two months crying in a corner. Just approach 20-30 local businesses and you'll have somebody agree to give it a try, after all, there's pretty much no risk involved.

    Bob Serling - Million Dollar Licensing

    Here's my review of MDL. I opened up the box and found 2 large manuals (one is over 300 pages, the other about 80 pages), a 12 CD set, a 6 DVD set that is basically bonus interviews and case studies, some quick start materials, and 2 bonus pamphlets with some detailed questions that past users have asked.
