Yes an extremely silent launch compared to all the other launches. But considering that John Reese is a heck of a marketer I'm sure that there is a lot of strategy behind that move.
Can't really answer your question as there is no info out there beside one video.

We'll see tomorrow =)

Cheers

I believe $39.95 a month is what he will be doing. <--Jumping on continuity bandwagon.

The video shows how creating a long (like a year plus) autoresponder sequences for affiliate marketing is profitable.

My problem is I signed up to watch the video but now I can't seem to get the handwritten pdf. Anyone know where I can find this?

I received John Reese's email today about the sneak peak video. The idea seems quite promising, however there are already quite a few free based affiliate networks out there. I do like the fact that it offers training, and the personal touch in regards to the selection of programs added to the database. I think $39.95 seems like a very reasonable price as well.

It'll be interesting to see how it goes.

The problem with Reese is that I don't see him ever getting to the point where he's giving really high value stuff for people that have been doing affiliate marketing for awhile. He seems to like to keep that to himself. And if that's the case, who cares if it's John Reese teaching you the basics or a place like wealthy affiliate.

Maybe to an extent but I think the real thing is that there is a much larger market to sell stuff to beginner affiliates than advanced affiliates.

A whole lot more beginners out there.

That, plus newbies are a whole

plus the fact that piracy is so
widespread adds up to a serious
disincentive to share anything

I believe that John is smart in promoting affiliate marketing for newbies. This is a HUGE market. Quite a few newbies don't have nor know how to create their own product and John explains why being an affiliate marketer is better than having your own product (which I agree with for people that need to learn to drive traffic first).

I believe this could be a valuable resource for any person starting out that wants to learn how to set up a website, an autoresponder, and make some money while they are at it.

Of course, I believe the ultimate way to make money online is by creating your own products and having affiliates market it for you, but I would start with affiliate marketing. And who better than someone that knows all about creating traffic?

I agree with Jeremy and Woody. This newest by John Reese is targeted to beginners and there's a lot more of them then there are of the "old-timers". I count myself as a newbie even though I started out 4 years ago.

I wish this had been around then because it's taken me this long to find decent training for affiliate marketers. Up till now, I've found that people who are successful at it haven't been very willing to share their expertise.

Hey everyone!

For everyone that became a member today I want to first of all thank you for your valued business and secondly thank you for your PATIENCE.

Our servers are still getting hammered with traffic and it's affecting our internal training videos and lesson files (they are slow to load.) We have the membership site temporarily offline and we are making it live around 11PM EST. We originally planned to open it up to all new members at 9PM but the traffic levels are still very heavy.

Thanks to everyone for their patience! Look forward to working with you to help you grow your affiliate marketing income!

I was never pissed at you.

But you were pissed at me if I recall. You had sent me a preview copy of your course that went to one of our offices; that I never even knew about until 6 months later. (Sorry for that miscommunication, by the way.)

And I never said a $197 ebook couldn't be done. My post was taken out of context. Companies have been selling 'research reports' online for $5,000 for over 10 years. That's technically and ebook/digital product. My comments were trying to say that they same product physical vs. digital could command higher prices if it were physical due to the perceived value.

Thanks for the kind words. I actually would have promoted your product if I had known about it at the time. I honestly didn't see it until many MONTHS after it was sent to our office. I liked the DVDs that I had a chance to watch. I even liked the part about you using my name in your marketing and expecting I'd come after you. ;-) Good stuff.

As for Blog Rush, that was done by reviewers that worked for the site. They didn't always use the best judgement, unfortunately. That sucker got so big so fast it was really hard to keep up with -- so we definitely made some mistakes. My apologies.

I just signed up and took a look inside only to be disappointed by the fact that every video I watched is taken directly from his Traffic Secrets course (except the 3 intro videos).

He even says "CD" in the videos.

There may be good content coming, but after the 18 month build-up to this launch and all the delays he said they were having due to "putting together great new content" I think he totally dropped the ball.

Newbie affiliates will probably think Opportunity.com is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but to anyone who knows better this site is a massive disappointment from day one.

Why the cool teaser video with the "Affiliate Commission Engine" with all the promise of delivering good fresh content, and then getting up a bunch of recycled videos from your CD collection from 2 years ago?

Seriously John, you're kidding me right...

Nice outlet and the idea of having somebody telling you about opportunities is great.

Looks like he struggled a little with his launch, but who not. I'm sure that John will come up with outstanding content very soon. Launch time is always a little shaky.

I think this is an awesome chance for newbies to get started on the right foot. I'll be watching this one closely.

You do realize that the site has been open for less than 12 hours right? We're in the process of adding tons of stuff to it. The only older content is the bonus material. The TS2 lessons are less than 12 months old. It's the same core lesson so why make another tutorial? They're effective and help people make money. That's the focus of the site.

As far as 18 month build-up, I don't know what you're talking about. This site was never announced until 45 days ago. You're probably thinking about our main Income.com community site that has been in development for awhile and we hope to make live later in the year.

You're also missing the fact, I believe, that so much value is in the rest of the site. We're building that offer directory to hopefully have over 100,000 offers in it.

But obviously you don't care for it. No big deal. That's your opinion. PM me your full name and I will promptly refund you your $39.95 and remove you from all of our lists and customer records. Since our products are apparently "such a joke" then please don't even purchase from our company again

To everyone else, sorry for me ranting a bit but it just bugs me when all the information is right in front of people (and for only $39) for people to build a million a year business yet people try to complain and tear it down.

Hey John cool that you stopped by.

I see where you're coming from. I remember that Frank told a little story at the MC2.0 seminar about somebody who opened up a thread ranting like crazy about spelling errors in Infomillionaire.

I mean that's the thing with the mindset, people get a great product for free that can make them a bunch of money and what do some do, they come spend their time and energy complaining about minor grammar flaws

Anyways, I like what I see in opportunity.com and it's great to hear that you gonna come up with more good content. 39,99 looks like a fair price to me.

Right on.

Cheers,
Mario

Hey John,

I also appreciate you stopping by and standing up for your product. Honestly, if you didn't make those corrections, I would have been disappointed!

I was very happy to see that you priced this membership at $39 because your past products (like TS2) provide a LOT of great information, but the pricetag was tough for a lot of struggling marketers to afford. I have not yet signed up for Opportunity.com, but absolutely plan to. The one question I had is how much new content will be added each month going forward? I have always recommended your products to my site's readers and will likely do the same with Opportunity.com once I join myself and check it out. I just want to make sure that we don't end up paying $39 a month to look at last month's content

.

Thanks!

The only thing I can comment on is what's in the Opportunity.com website at the time it's launched, which I did.

Saying you're going to add "tons of stuff to it" doesn't change the fact that the material that's posted in the Training Center is Traffic Secrets material that I've already seen.

In essence what you're saying is that I'll have to keep paying my membership fee each month in hopes that new content and material is posted? You lost me there...

You are correct that I was referring to Income.com, my mistake on that please accept my apologies.

I never said that your products are "such a joke" as you stated. I own Traffic Secrets 2 and think it was a worthwhile investment.

Here's where you dropped the ball in my eyes. When you have a sales page that makes the following claims about what is included in the membership site:

(taken from Opportunity.com sales page)

* - How To Select A Market With Massive Potential
* - How To Use Systems To Automate And Manage Your Business
* - How To Carefully Track, Analyze, And Optimize Your Results
* - How To Leverage Your Own Blog To Increase Your Commissions
* - How To Master The Art Of Preselling To Triple Conversions

* - How To Get Higher Commission Rates Than Regular Affiliates
* - How To Uncover The Best Approach To ANY Market (By Cloning What The Best Affiliates Are Already Doing)
* - How To Use Viral Videos To Generate Affiliate Income

I logically expect that when I pay my money and sign-up with you that I will find that information you promised now, not in a week, a month, six months or a year later.

I think that's a fair expectation, don't you?

It would be like me buying a computer online with a spec sheet that says the machine has a 4 ghz processor, 8 gigs of ram, 120 gig hard drive only to find out when I get it and take it out of the box it has a 2ghz processor, 4 gigs of ram and a 60 gig hard drive.

Should I take comfort in the fact that when I call the computer store to ask them why I didn't get the machine I payed for they say, "The computer will be like the one you ordered, but not right now we're still working on that but it's not done yet."

I personally can see exactly where your coming from, but in my mind what John has in the members area is worth far more than 39 dollars or whatever it was.

When I now enter a new niche i'm not gonna have to go to all the different affiliate networks trying to figure out what the best product is for my new website. This alone will save me hours and that alone is worth far more than 39 bucks a month.

Opportunity.com, maybe I'm wrong, but I think of it as more of a service. And i'll probably be a lifetime member just for the fact that it is a service that I will use probably every single week.

I don't know John personally, but after buying most of his products I am 100% confident that you will get tons more value (this month).

I'm sure he has it all planned out.

My point is that a membership site is something that is either added to everymonth or a service, Opportunity.com is both. And maybe people are overlooking the amazing value already there.

I have not looked at the videos yet, but if there all from TS2 than that's a 397 dollar value right there, right?

Just my 2 cents,
Zach

P.S- it seems some people are overreacting, remember that there is still a full month left and i'm sure there is many more lesson's that will be added within this month. And with a 30 day refund, what's the big deal?

Seriously.

You hit it right on the head. The training is certainly an important part of the site but the core value (which will evolve daily) is the research and updated Offer Directory. Finding one new offers in your niche to promote should far outweigh the $39/month for access to the data.

Thank you.

Yes John, I'm a TS2 customer and think it's a great product, worth way more than I paid for it, you over delivered on that one.

I guess I expected a membership site with your name attached to it to really blow me away, not underwhelm me with old content I already own.

I also understand the value of the "offers" area of the site and think it will be of value to newbies but not those who are very nichecentric like I am - to each his own in that regard.

I guess I'll wait and see what you deliver over the next 30 days and make my decision then.

Thanks for manning up and responding publicly on the forum, it shows how much you care about your reputation and good name - I guess I can't argue with your track record it's solid.

With due respect to John, the "great stuff coming soon" thing make me think of TS2.

I joined largely on the strength of the forum, which was positioned as something John would be regularly contributing to, etc.

Of course what actually happened, as is usually the case, is it started out strong because a lot of eager members contributed, but as John made few-and-far-between appearances, it shrank to the point where it is all but dead.

There were members - myself among others - who "carried" the forum for a while, but it never reached the promise that was put forth.

I just checked in there, and it's pretty much just barely limping along.

Disappointing enough that I no longer buy into the "we're gonna build a terrific user community, etc..." and so won't be buying into Opportunity.com

Just seems that most of these die off once sales starts to trend below a certain point. Understandable in some respects, except when expectations are set otherwise.

Mark, you raise some fair criticism. Private forums are very difficult to reach any point of critical mass. Unlike a public forum that can have its posts indexed (that will bring in more traffic) and the fact that more will end up posting because anyone can, a private forum rarely gets anywhere near as busy as a public one.

Our main Income.com community site that we are rolling out soon will be a PUBLIC community site which should get very busy. The current TS2 members site will roll into it as a private sub-community. Although it will remain private it will get a lot more traffic from people that have access to it AND are regularly using the open public forum. It's just like here on the Warrior Forum with the private Mastermind area. It gets a lot of traffic because of the 'spillover' effect.

Opportunity.com actually does not contain a community element at all. There is no discussion forum.

So, then, what exactly *is* opportunity.com? (in your words)

Hi John,

I understand its a "service" and not so much of a training course. But, is it a good investment to a guy like me, i just own 1 niche site, not 22 of them

Thanks

I understand the criticisms voiced already but some of those seem to be from people who already bought John Reese's previous product and feel there is some repitition..but that would not be a problem for me.

So Opportunity.com or Affilorama?

That's hard to answer. Opportunity.com just launched, you gotta take some time to check everything out, looks awesome to me.

I don't have Affilorama but I have only heard very good things about it, seems to be a real step by step process from zero to having your own affiliate site up and running, geared towards newbies.

That said I could imagine that opportunity.com is a perfect companion for that process as it delivers you the newest and best selling products out there.

I guess I'd make the one time payment for Affilorama, learn how to set up an affiliate site the way he does and then sign up for opportunity.com in order to have the best offers and research at your fingertips for 40 bucks a month.

Would be great if somebody can chime in who actually has both products.

Cheers,
Mario

Thanks

Anyone know where I can get a help ticket answered at opportunity.com? I have sent two help tickets since 5-18-09 with not a single response yet. I purchased the Starter Package kit that comes with entire sites, autoresponder emails, graphics, etc.. But have NO idea how to implement them.

Thanks

Wow, this has got to be a disaster for you John. I apologize in advance as I don't mean to pile on, but I cannot seem to get a response from you or your support team. I've had a ticket pending for about a week now with no response. I also sent a couple emails to you with no response. I wish to cancel and obtain a refund for essentially all the reasons set forth earlier in this string. What gives?

Thanks

Seems like a good starter course and getting into CPA networks... how is the payout? Is it the same as other networks?

Thanks

For what it's worth, my refund request was processed within a few days. So, at least that part if now working without issues.

For the newbie affiliate, I honestly would recommend opportunity.com. They do give some pretty good tutorials on how to get opt-in leads and a website of your own up.....building a list of subscribers and then marketing to them is a very powerful way to build affiliate commissions.

Thanks
