EmpowerNetwork: Have you made money?

Hey, I am thinking of joining EmpowerNetwork and making it another profit stream I have.

What is the whole concept behind it?
Have you made money with it?

    It's an MLM program. There's many long threads on Empower. Here's one.

    http://www.warriorforum.com/internet...r-network.html

    More here:

    Some people claim they're making lots of money. Just as many aren't. Somewhere in the middle is the truth.

    Fun facts...
    Facebook and Squidoo's banned them.
    Paypal and Authorize.net were removed as merchants.
    Only way to get paid now is via eWallet which costs an extra $19.95/mth.

    Ultimately, the only way to know if it works, is to join and try your best. Just make sure you use shortened links in case you ever leave them. You always want a way to preserve any backlinks you create.

    I'm not a member.

    I have just joined them ... but Perez was telling that there are lots of people making money but there are lots of them failing too .... just think of the complete plan of action and do a lot research before jumping in to it ... and also dont get into all the fuss about this ALL IN stuff ... keep urself reserved for a while until u get something out of it and then raise the stakes ....

    Best of luck

      There are lots of people on the Warrior Forum making money, and most are not making any.

      Empower isn't an isolated incident. It's like that everywhere and in many industries having nothing to do with making money online too.

      You'll get out of it what you put into it - as with anything.

      Good luck

    Empower network is same as any IM. If you check the top leaders, they are not new, they involved in many different IM. They have lots of experience and they know how to play with it. I Believe this system works but long way to go.

    The basic idea behind the Empower Network is that they have created the sales funnel for you. Dave Wood has been around for years selling his own products and as one of the top earners of My Lead System Pro (MLSP).

    The $25 level gives you access to your own blog on a subdomain of the Empower Network (similar to the way Squidoo and other Web 2.0 sites work). The idea is that the massive amount of content, inbound links and buzz around the Internet will help your posts rank higher and faster (which of course is the way those other 2.0 sites became so effective in the past). You will still need to know how to generate traffic and optimize your posts through SEO.

    They provide you with swipe emails (copy & paste emails) that you can send to the leads generated by the people visiting your blog and/or company squeeze pages (linked to your affiliate account).

    There are several additional products available for purchase. The next one is $100/month which gives you access to training materials that will help you learn how to generate traffic to your blog/squeeze pages.

    Additional training is available at different price points. The catch is that you can only earn commissions on products that you own. So if you buy the $25 package and nothing else, you will only be able to earn $25 commissions.

    As stated by my fellow warriors above, asking whether or not people are making money is almost irrelevant. Just because other people are making it work doesn't mean you will.

    There are no guarantees in IM, just hard work, proven systems and persistence...

    If you're up for it, my personal opinion is to just make a website on your own. Use the money you'd spend on empower network for advertising or something unrelated.

    I am thinking about joining them but my concern is I dont use aweber or getresponse (and dont plan on using them since I love the AR I am using currently).

    Can I still use the EmpowerNetwork system and capture leads into my own custom AR?

    You can use whatever you want, it's not required, just the easiest thing and something a lot of Empower Network people can get started with quickly. I was in it but dropped out because I was spreading myself too thin, and just didn't like the feel of it after a while.

      What do you mean by spreading yourself in? And what made you stop liking it?

    Doing too many things at once. And honestly, I got the same feeling as I did with most other MLM: cult-like statements: "Go all in to succeed" etc. "If you don't you don't want it." I don't need that kind of "motivation."

      I am in EN, I have made $100 with it but I am also fairly new to internet marketing. I like what I'm learning ever since joining EN and all the training they provide. I think it's a great system, the blog is also very powerful.

      Due to being one of the top 500 websites in the world you can rank on Google within a day of posting, my PR1 blog can't even come close.

        They probably got kicked off of paypal b/c they are a pyramid structure (which ALWAYS means that a minimum of 50% of all participants are getting ZERO back from their efforts).

        It also means that the vast majority of the "big checks" are going to those in the top 5-10% of the structure.

        I've not researched them in depth, but I don't have to. It's a pyramid. I'm out.

          The people who do not get money back are either not marketing the product correctly or have no idea what they are doing.

          Anyone can make money with it, join under the $25 pack and then sell the $25 pack, you dont have to upgrade and create a pyramid uplink at all if you dont wish to. Most MLM networking has some kind of pyramid structure.

          You can also just use the high authority domain and change the theme of the blog and advertise anything you want,

          effectively it is a already created and running blogging system with affiliate banners, the main benefit is the domain authority, however long term commitments would be to create your own authority website, or do both.

    I've made significant money with Empower and most of the people I have recruited have too.

    I'm not going to get into a discussion of how much was made or whether or not Empower is a scam/pyramid scheme (doesn't take a genius to figure out it's not) so here are the OFFICIAL income earnings made by Empower users straight from the source



    As you can see from the earnings, 54% of all users are making between $0 - $75 per WEEK with the average amount being $27 (meaning they broke even and are in profit).

    Remember, they are WEEKLY earnings, so that's not bad.

    I think if YOU think you can make money with Empower Network you can. Empower Network is a great system (probably one of the best to be a part of) to generate massive success online (given you know what you're doing).

    There is no easy way to make money online. What ever you do you have to work at it. Thinking you just join a group pay so much per month and you will get a return - it is not always a viable proposition. If you have a blog and your own product and you know how to get traffic, you will be able to make money.
    MLMs are a hard way to make a lot of money unless you got in very early in the beginning.

      Edwin, alot of people on here talking about what they dont know. empower is in no way a pyramid....period. matter of fact, when someone joins, 100% of $25 goes directly to your sponsor...not to david wood. the $20 merchant account goes towards customer representatives, site maintenance ect. if you think about it, you would be paying paypal alot more.

      empower network is based on actual PRODUCT in the form on online training in internet marketing and building your primary business (if you have one). screw the money, what it did for me training wise, i'd pay millions for. it completely changed my negative mindset. im a lot more positive and proactive about everything i do.

      one advice to you is to find a good sponsor. one with some tools to lighten the load cause blogging everyday isnt fun. my sponsor did not have tools or too much experience -although he was making money- so i had to come up with my own tools and techniques. spent a month doing techy stuff to make life easier (google unique content trick for blogging daily and other stuff).

      edwin, you're already an experience marketer... i had no experience in internet marketing and im doing fine...so imagine what you can do.

      you will need an aweber account bro. sorry. its 1 dollar for the first month. you can set of empower email campaign on what you have now but the leads that come in through your empower blog wouldnt go to your autoresponder. there's alot to say and dont want to be too long. You have me on skype (theincometeamltd) so if anything, you can hit me up there is anything you need help with.

      About Empower's blog that one must updated on a daily basis: Do you have to write content about one specific niche as you would if you had your own WordPress blog doing your own SEO (and thus not in Empower's network) or can your content, on a day to day basis, be super diversified and tangential i.e. sports, politics, entertainment, cars, motorcycles, cooking, your love life, brain surgery, rocket science, bad people in your neighborhood that you want to sick pit bulls on, etc, etc.

      How do you find a good team to join, what makes a good team and how can you verify that they're any good?

    I made $500 this week, all reoccurring. Getting a $1k one time commission Monday too so $1500 in 7 days, with $500 of that reoccurring is not bad IMO :-)

          I know the alexa ranking is still very high which tells me new people are still joining...or at least "visiting" the site daily.

  • Depends on what you like.

    Take away all the hype and rationalisation and you will find Empower Network is simply an MLM business using IM products as it's operational cash flow.

    Look at the structure, look at what you are "advised" to do, look at the required investment(s) at different levels, listen to the nature and content of the videos, and then try and tell me it is not MLM.

    It might be something that attracts you, it might be something that rings alarm bells.

    From my business journey to date, several decades, it rings alarm bells.

    Cheers
