Ohhh, I didn’t see THAT coming!
So, lots of marketers are now frantically trying to get you to buy Pipeline Profits which went LIVE!!! today. 
And they’re all frantically trying to out-do each other with their own “value added” bonuses.
Check these out…
John Reese: “I am going to hold a private 90-minute teleseminar for all of the people that purchase through my affiliate link…”
Mike Filsaime: “P.P.S. You’re going to get the entire DVD package to my SOLD OUT $5,000 workshop–the same DVDs that I’d planned on quietly using instead of selling–if you buy Buck and Brock’s pipeline course through this link here”
Brad Fallon: “Let’s add it all up:
*Stomping the Search Engines $295
*Profits from Physical Products DVD course $1296
*China Proits (sic) DVDs $15,000 value
Total value: $16,491.
***WARNING***: All three of these courses can NOT be purchased–and if you want to buy Profit Pipeline just to get them that’s fine, but you’re going to be in the same FOOT RACE as everyone else to get you slot.
Remember, you can ONLY get these bonuses if you SUCCESSFULLY buy through the link I’m JUST ABOUT to provide you with.”
Michael Cheney: “You are getting a very special opportunity to join the one and only Brock Felt himself and me on a Private Live Learning Teleseminar!”
… and there are probably umpteen million more offers being made that I’m not aware of.
Oh, of course, there are only 500 places available (initially) and the first 200 get something totally valuable by Frank Kern… some email marketing course or other… another “bonus” to add to the pile.
Would it surprise you to learn that all this incredible cut-throat marketing is because of just $700 commission per sale?
Surely that’s not a huge amount of money to these people? I mean… there are only 500 places, so, unless I’ve been misinformed, the “average” super affiliate selling one or two places isn’t really going to walk off with a truckload of cash.
OK, I know that in the “real world” $700 is a lot of money to most people. But these “big name” marketers, who are paraded as the million dollar guys, should they really be fighting a cut-throat battle with each other over these limited sales?
Your thoughts?
And, hey, if you want the course, pick one of the guys above to buy from, ‘cos I’m not offering any bonuses, or even an affiliate link.

Everyone was predicting it would sell out in 2 hours, but 8 hours into the launch, they pulled the plug, with a promise to reopen eventually.
Seems to me that everyone’s credit cards are overloaded…probably it’s that $897 per month they are paying to Stomper Net, or maybe it was one heck of a good christmas for all their friends and family!

I think something is very strange also Neil.
Watched the hole Co-Reg thing heat up… to the point it was RED HOT… then they announced only 500 openings… AND an Under $3,000 Price.
What? What happened to those 2 down to earth guys on the videos who acted like it was their first time on stage, all innocent and all… talking about how the little guy can do Co-Reg with around $140.
Yeah, and pay a months wage to get the know how from B & B… and have to wait six months before he can save up the $140… something happen the week before the launch that made the whole thing start to be NOT so ‘friendly’ to the Little Guy.
Must have been the San Diego Double Date Convention that everyone met with B & B at… weekend of Jan 13th.
In fact, that’s why they most likely postponed the Jan 15 Launch date.
The were out of town meeting RJ, Frank Kern, Reese, Filsaime and that is when things went side ways… Why?
And now you say that the big guys are all fighting over ONLY $350,000 in JV pay out?
And if you add the The Rich Jerk to your list you have have in your blog, that’s 5 Big Guys plus John with Nitro Co-Reg were pounding away as well as several other smaller Big Guys.
That’s around 10 big guys all fighting over an average of $35,000 each.
There must be something we don’t know, otherwise it sounds like strange
behavior… i mean RJ gave away, i think it was, around 50 pre-release beta versions of his RJXray new software… a $997 price tag. Just so he can make $700 JV income each pop? They have got to be reopening the doors sooooon or the planets are out of alignment or you tell me?
All exciting to watch, if you don’t have your life savings invested.
Just feel sorry for the Little Guy and hope this is a real good deal and he can get some money coming in before declaring bankruptcy due to ‘Guru Overpayments’.
Hopefully Reese will announce some less ‘pocket grabbing’ news next week for his new and ’should be awesome’ Income.com site!
Let’s see what goes up next week!
Till then, there are still a couple of million Little Guys who are waiting for their chance to start playing the Internet game… hopefully one day the price demanded for the ‘Guru Know How’ will come down to their budget!

I think you will find it’s either ego or JV partner prizes.

Hi Yaro,
You could well be right. I didn’t hear about any prizes for this launch. I was invited to promote, but didn’t sign up. Perhaps the prizes were promoted after you’d signed up.

Neil,
Thanks for the write up.
There were no JV prizes and it’s not about ego as far as I’m concerned.
It’s my mission to give people on my list the best information and the best value by finding the best products and giving my input on them.
Anyone on my list will see that I produced 3 videos, got an interview with Brock Felt and did a behind the scenes review of the product itself all before recommending people buy.
It is a total fallacy that just because we get commission to promote something that there is no value in doing so.
What I am doing is giving people my HONEST opinion about something and saving them time and money by adding value to the product itself both before and after the purchase.
So why shouldn’t I be justly rewarded for that? Money isn’t number 1 for me but when I spend a lot of hours researching something, creating educational videos, conducting interviews and teleseminars etc. to further people’s knowledge then it’s perfectly acceptable that there be a price tag attached to that.
I strongly believe that there is no such thing as a “promo email” and a “content email”. I try to make sure ALL my emails have good content that educates people in marketing whether they buy or not.
My two cents (for anyone that agrees with me I will give 1 cent on a 50% commission basis)..

This launch was a disaster to say the least. If I promoted this I would send my list a huge apology and offer them whatever I could to make this right.
1. Return policy changed from 364 days to 30 days after course was sold out.
2. No Support from Brock or Buck in the forum, anyone who makes suggestions on the problems with the launch has there account terminated.
3. No response from Support or emails sent.
4. Overcharged on 3 pay plan, said it was $685, Charged $735
5. Course material still not printed out, should arrive around day 25 of having the course.
Maybe this was a success in pure sales goals, but the launch and the refunds they are going to be giving are going to make a lot of the JVs have FITS!
If you want to see how they treat there clients read my blog where I detail the abuse.
