Mark from 45n5.com calls out an “internet guru” and affiliates promoting Adsense Secrets. The sales letter has now been modified to clarify the point that you are going to be signed up for a forced continuity newsletter “bonus” unless you cancel after your “free” issue. If you’re not going to be completely clear up front, you’re going to lose trust and customers. Once the trust is lost, it’s very difficult to get it back.

I’m glad that there are checks and balances in the internet marketing world.

Oh, another thing - I can’t stand those fake chat agents that make you think there is a live person you can chat with. Sorry! I’m not going to fall for that.

So far I have noticed that I was the first to point Joel Comm out. It got some buzz on my site, and even got Joel Comm himself to comment on my site. He told us to relax and that right after you buy the ebook, you can call him and opt out. Call? What would be call him? I guess for the same reason he thinks we want to have the $30 subscription. We don’t want your garbage Joel. We don’t want to follow you month to month. We just want your brain from your E-book, then to run. Don’t scam us out of $30 a month and not give us the option to opt out while buying. IMO I hope the book hits the warez scene. He could make 50k off 5,000 people just selling the ebook at 10 bucks. That is being generous. I would imagine way more people would have bought it for 10 bucks, if he didn’t force us to get his report. He could have made 150k easily. I wonder how his foot tastes? [insert foot to mouth]

Read my post on Adsese Secrets Volume 4 and find out if it is really a scam or not. I ran the figures!

Wade, thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your comments. I think that things like forced continuity programs should be CLEARLY pointed out so that the buyer knows exactly what they are getting into. Once you lose your trust with customers, it’s very difficult to gain it back.

I am seeing so much of this recently it makes me wonder whether these guys are all trying to recession-proof themselves at the expense of unwary subscribers.

I don’t like the idea of having people in ofrced continuity, making it difficult for them to cancel and/or hoping they forget just so you can keep raking it in.

What ever happened to providing value for the customer? Value that they’re willingly participating - that’s not being forced down their throats?
