Hey guys! So I've been checking out Empower Network, doing tons of research blah blah blah. It looks like a good concept but what I don't understand why they talk so much about this guru or that guru (which seems to be the same 2 people) who made 5 figures in like 5 days. That's all great and dandy, but to me it's unrealistic. I mean, yea if you have a huge following base of thousands... all you would need to do is send a blast email or do a webinar and say, "do this now!" Kind of similar when people take their massive downline to a new mlm-- people follow. So for the average joe, I don't think it's really fair. Yea, I know you need to do hard work and what not but I think the claims is misleading. I'm sure there's money to made and I have no doubt people are making money. I just wish there was more stories about people who are "normal" who are successful with EN. I'm doing very well with my primary biz but looking to add another stream of income. I like the fact that EN is daily pay and I believe I understand how it works. Another downside is I think it said in one video that they may be adding more products soon. So... what if the next product is $1000? then $2000? So if people don't buy that, it gets passed up to the 'gurus" who can afford to dish that out in a second. Hmmm... thoughts? I'm not against EN, just like to hear people's thoughts and views. Also, are their alternatives to EN? Thanks everyone?

I also looked at EN and what has put me off is the fact you have to blog daily about EN and other stuff. It depends where you are in the world as well as in the UK EN has not taken off as quickly as in the US. Us Brits just aren't as big bloggers I guess Do not ask people to contact you

I find that many EN members are nothing but slick salesmen who prey on the newbie by selling them on the $625 level. I have talked to a few of them & frankly I wouldn't want to business with any of them! If you can sponsor, I would advise looking at NetworkMarketingVT...I'm not a member but it looks like an honest program from what I can tell! Good luck!

I agree with your thoughts on EN, I actually dabbled with it, before facing the truth I was putting off that it's far more profitable and effective to simply make my own blog/website. EN is just an affiliate program and the product is a blog and if you upgrade, some training.
There are lots of affiliate programs that pay monthly recurring commissions, even higher than EN, (the $25 level at least, not the $125 level) but in my opinion anyone smart will eventually realize either that EN isn't going to get them money any faster than if they started their own blog, or they eventually make money in it, learn internet marketing in the process, and move on to something more profitable to them versus the owners of EN.
Basically a good alternative would be any recurring monthly affiliate product. Check out CBEngine, they are a great site for rating CB afiliate products, and you can sort them by recurring commissions and other methods.
--------------------
The only way I EVER made any short-term cash online (as in within a week; affiliate marketing etc. is definitely long-term) was surveys (which stunk) and THIS.I highly recommend it: $25-$50 every couple hours depending on how fast you are, FREE to do, and the only investment is time.

Hi! I'm a member of EN. I get lots of traffic in EN. It has Search Engine Optimization and all the tools you need in getting traffic. All the trainings/lesson are awesome, and if you join the right group, they will help you how to succeed.

Know exactly how you feel. I've had my own blog for 10 years (both WordPress and eventually switched to a FREE Google blogger solution in 2010). Not with the intention to make money, just to share the good stuff (so I told myself). A Blogger blog (because it's from Google) does rank very high in Google. But ... to make money with it you need an opt-in system, create / buy great lead capture page systems, then write an opt-in campaign, etc. etc. that's basically why I never got around to doing it right. At EN that's ALL included in your $25pm. It's all done for you, for the people you know,everybody! You only gotta blog. More traffic, means more opt-ins, means more potential leads. To learn internet marketing from whom? There are so many so-called 'experts'. Just because somebody made some money with Internet Marketing 2 years ago, doesn't mean they still can. Dave & Dave show you how they make money, and how we can do that too. The affiliate fee of $19.95 keeps the platform breakeven. Everything else, how they do it, how we do it? Is the same. Do what the succesful people do and become successful. Do something else? And you can be become very profitable as well. 5 figure incomes? nice! Let's start small. 3-4 figure a month would solve almost all recession/depression for everybody. And that's easy to do.

I've known and spoken to Dave Wood a couple of times before he started EN. He's a good guy, a little too over the top for my tastes. I wrote a review about him a while back http://networkmarketleads.com/review-of-da...this-mlm-freak/I think that EN might be a little saturated. A lot of the solo ad sellers won't even send their list the EN spiel. Just my 2 cents, all the best, Roger
