When I first started this blog, I said I would be unbiased and honest and to that end, I followed up an email I received from a lady called Ruby. She asked me to research a company called Quick Click Commissions. I did a lot of research online and the usual Quick Click Commissions/Scam? - Quick Click Commissions/Reviews and Quick Click Commissions/Is this for real?, came up....so, I clicked on their link where there was a video which I wasn't able to pause, which Ruby had already told me, not able to f/f, rewind or even click away from without the usual "WAIT" message coming up. I gave it a go and ordered by super duper MONEY GENERATION SOFTWARE, I paid $58/£37 for, I then received an email with a login code. When I clicked the link to the site, the first thing I was told to do was to promote the sales of Quick Click Commissions to other people by making false claims about money we had earned through the program. Now at this point I got really interested....I couldn't believe what I was reading!
The thrust of the program was that they had developed a new software (program) package that enabled them to use Facebook to make sales. The idea was to become an Amazon affiliate and use Facebook pages to generate Amazon sales. As an Amazon affiliate you can earn up to 6% commission on the sales you generate. The instructions told you how to become an Amazon affiliate using a website link provided by Quick Click Commissions. (QCC) This I tried but on 3 separate occasions, Amazon rejected the QCC sites. When questioned about this QCC responded by saying that I should concentrate on selling their program as that was where the most profit was. They also provided a review generator to be used to generate commissions as an affiliate using the Clickbank site. I was then told that what I needed was targeted traffic in order to make sales and of course this required a further investment of $196 which of course (and sorry Ruby), I wasn't prepared to pay but as I went to click out of the further investment opportunity, it then reduced the price to $96!! I'm sorry I didn't say earlier but I paid the initial sum from a Paypal account as there was a 100% guaranteed 60 day full refund. Knowing that in order to get my full research, I paid the $96 and low and behold, before I could get the magical TRAFFIC GENERATION SOFTWARE, I had to spend a further $154 on buying hosting and domain name through a company called HOSTZILLA.COM (not to be confused with the very reputable company HOSTZIL.LA) this, despite the original sales video categorically stating that I would not require a website or to spend any more money than the original $58! The traffic generation software never appeared, the 15 hours training promised when buying the hosting and domain name did not appear - despite copious amounts of emails from QCC asking me to buy other packages.
Interestingly, when I created a Facebook page to promote QCC, it was immediately removed by f/b. In QCC's own training video, they tell you not to promote Clickbank products with a gravity of more than 40% as this means that there are too many other affiliates promoting that product, to make it worth your while. At that time, QCC's gravity on Clickbank exceeded 750+ and this meant that there were so many affiliates promoting their product, anyone could see that it would not be possible to make an income from the product from QCC, the only people who would benefit would be the owners of QCC!
The only good thing about QCC is that they are covered by Clickbank's 60 day money back guarantee otherwise I would never have embarked on this project and left Ruby with what I had originally told her.
The lesson here is that there are no short cuts and getting rich quick, despite their promises to do so (overnight in fact lol) - Yes, the guys at the top of such a scheme will always make money but don't be fooled by screen shots of huge payouts and their hype at how terrible and unethical other companies work!!!
Just think for a minute, if you discovered a way to make even $100 per day online, would you then sell that secret to others, knowing that if you did, everyone would be doing it, passing the secret on and soon you would be down to $1 a day, if that.
So, as for my honest and unbiased opinion - DO NOT TOUCH QUICK CLICK COMMISSIONS WITH A BARGE POLE!! However, I will say I thoroughly enjoyed carrying out this research and it has taken me on such an eye opening journey.
If you do choose to take the risk, keep an eye on your income and if you don't make a profit within 30 days - get your money back asap - thanks for reading, Robert
I couldn't agree more - I tried it and went all the way I ended up spending over $800 and didn't make a penny, just sent me round in circles buying more thimgs to aid my little online business, just conmen all the way, I didn't manage the 60 day limit for refund tho as I kept working on it. Ruby
