Should you sign-up for Empower Network or not?

Introduction

So much has been written about another one of these money making (or not) internet programs, this one is called Empower Network, founded by David Wood in 2011, which wants to empower you as a successful internet entrepreneur. The reviews you can find about them are numerous. Why is it that you read so many controversial meanings about this system?internet business scam alert

Lots of money?

Is this because you can make (a lot of) money with this system? Is it because it is a rather expensive program? Is it because of the many up-sells?

I have collected below information from their website and hope that at the end of this article you will have a better impression about Empower Network. You will be able to make a decision yourself whether to sign-up or not.

At the end I will also provide a life changing option for your own internet business and start making honest money. Check it out!

So, what is this Empower Network program?

I am quoting their home page: “Empower Network hosts one of the largest blogging communities and publishing platforms online in addition to providing educational training products and services to online marketers and start-up, home-based and small businesses. Empower Network offers six business and marketing software products and tools, including its signature blogging system, video hosting, training and several coaching packages for start-up, home-based, small and medium businesses.”

The products

In their heading they are further indicating that you can make money by following the simple three step approach that they have perfected for you. Here is an outline of the six business and marketing software products that they are offering internet businessnowadays. Mind you, these offerings have changed frequently in recent years.

The Kalatu Blogging System:

for $25 a month you can buy this system, which I think is a website, for blogging on your particular topic, niche or product. They say it is professional looking and is designed by marketers. The cost include website design, hosting, possibility of various themes, Search Engine Optimisation tools, commenting system and others. It does not mention, who is going to write the blogs (my guess is it will be you) and it fails to mention, whether you will/can be the owner of this website.

Inner Circle membership:

a mindset training, consisting of collection of audios that aim to put some positivism in your brain. This is all about strengthening your confidence, listening to success stories, even entertainment. They should be listened to in your leisure time. I was not able to find anything about cost involved, nor was their any indication about the number of audios and their specific contents.

Top Producer Formula: a program that will show you how to become a top producer in your area of business. There is a nice picture of computer, laptop and mobile, but I think they are just a bunch of hardware study guides. They sell it as a must have, but again no mention of any pricing, how many or the contents. Should you not be told what you are going to pay for?

Team Building Formula: 

shares with you the actual laws of team building, and how you can apply those fundamental team building laws to your business. Another of their up-sells and the information on this one isinternet business even more sketchier. I could not find the price and any other detailed information of what I am exactly buying here. And why is team building necessary when you are operating a one-person business?

Mass Influence Formula: 

shows you how to win the respect of others, and influence them to take the action that you want them to. My take is that they could be talking the correct approach to sales funnels here, however, that is not made clear on their site. You would have to buy this option for an unnamed amount.

I could not find number 6 information, if there ever was one.

My observations

They make it clear in the video, however, that you will not be guaranteed any income. Now that one I can respect and believe.

I have tried to find out the cost for the various up-sells, but in clicking the applicable button to sign-up they then ask you how you learned of them. After filling that in, they require your e-mail and a box pops up telling you how much you could be earning even this month, although I see no basis for it. To me this looks too good to be true and I do not like the way they want to get your details, before they give any way of customer needed information.

No information

empower network under scrutinyWhat I do like to know is that when I sign-up, what exactly am I getting, for what price and what I need to do for that. All these questions remain unanswered! But one thing is very clear: they want my money, yet you do not know how much at the beginning stage.

No substantiation

I have no personal experience with Empower Network, yet I find that their website does not contain much information to go on. Their simple three step system that they perfected for you, has not been followed up with any explanation. Sure, the site looks nice, they sound good, the promises are great, but when reading through the site, I find their good expectations are not substantiated at all. It is all a matter of: it could be true ( possibly for some chosen ones, for most of us probably not).

Many questions unanswered

In short, there are too many question marks. Where I come from they would conclude that they have something to hide and consequently take certainty over uncertainty.

And where are their comment boxes? Any self respecting marketer would offer their potential customers the possibility to pose important questions, before signing-up. Even better, in answering these questions, it would give Empower the chance to better profile themselves.

Recommendation for the world’s best possible program

If you, like me, do not want such uncertainty, then you will need to find a scam free program that does answer all of your questions beforehand and moreover gives you the opportunity for a one week Free Trial! Everybody has the opportunity to sign-up and become a successful internet entrepreneur. Yes, it does exist and I am a member since 2014.best internet business

  1. Hi Jerry

    I’ve never been a part of Empower Network but have seen a number of reviews.

    Interestingly, I saw one the other day from a guy called Jeremy Page who had made $220 000 from the program.

    But, the fascinating part is that he said he quit the program.Why? Because he said he was making his money from his downline and they were not making money. And morally, that left him bankrupt.

    He was making money because he had the skill set to get loads of traffic – a skill that many lacked.

    So Empower Network, when all is said and done, is MLM. And if you don’t have the marketing skills, it will be a frustrating experience.

    But, thanks for your review.

    Regards
    Peteni

    • I have never been a part of it either. I have studied their website and had some observations, which I wanted to share with the outside world. You may conclude from my observations that I would never enlist in the Empower Network program, based on the contents of that website alone.

      A guy quitting a program that earned him $220,000 (time wasn’t mentioned) is looking fishy. Nevertheless, any program like that needs some ambassadors or people who write positive reviews. Maybe he was one of the lucky and chosen ones. When he served his purpose, he was dismissed.
