I have actually written a new review concluding my experiences which I'll publish tomorrow or day after. <br /><br />When I wrote this review, I had not found SBI yet.<br /><br />I really appreciate you telling about your experiences. So many people come here looking for these review - they are going to benefit from your experiences.Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09071115694773187816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-86364663314553653222012-07-30T17:50:13.233-07:002012-07-30T17:50:13.233-07:00Hey Jaana. I just finished Vic's program. Af...Hey Jaana. I just finished Vic's program. After going through all of the modules I can say that I would not recommend this to anyone. There just really wasn't any substance in it. Handful of good tips that can easily be found online. Definitely not worth the price. I have already requested a full refund. <br /><br />I'm really disappointed I wasted my time with this product. I still don't know why Steve would recommend this crap. His recommendations are typically excellent. So I have no idea what would cause him to recommend such a terrible program. I'd rather save that money for one of his workshops.<br /><br />Vic's program just gives you same content about starting online businesses, just repackaged towards ebooks. The fundamentals are still the same. Find a good niche, analyze competition, then market.<br /><br />However, there is just so much still left to do in between. People will still make lots of mistakes that Vic won't be able to help them with. There is no forum or help guide to assist you when you meet those eventual roadblocks. If there was ongoing help such as a members only forum, maybe this would be better. But probably still not.<br /><br />At least with services like SBI you can talk to other people who have succeeded. You have hundreds of articles and lots of videos. You have case studies. You can check if people are exaggerating their claims by looking at their sites. With Vic's program there are no case studies that show who has succeeded using his programs. Perhaps you could be one of them. So good luck if you continue with this program.azmathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03584714939106511180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-44185537104462788832012-07-26T22:40:54.769-07:002012-07-26T22:40:54.769-07:00Hi CLGPopFax,

Your comment was really inspiring.<br /><br />At the moment I am halfway in the course and I'm not quite happy with it, but still it has some value for me. Not much, but some. But I think you did the right move by not buying it.<br /><br />Vic does tell later that PLR books cannot be used as they are. That Amazon has made their rules stricter about them. But I think he should have removed them from the sales material altogether.Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09071115694773187816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-21452498664742048962012-07-26T17:12:10.636-07:002012-07-26T17:12:10.636-07:00Hi Jaana,
It's good to hear what I suspected ...Hi Jaana,<br /><br />It's good to hear what I suspected straight from somebody who has actually purchased the course. Vic's sales pitch inspired me to get into eBooks, but as I couldn't afford his program, I just used the internet marketing knowledge that I amassed over several months of diligent study and voracious blog reading, and I've been doing great! My first full month of selling and I've already made 400 dollars, and I can't even see the end of the income potential. It's possible to do what Vic did without Vic's program.<br /><br />One thing I've learned in my real-time eBooks crash course is that many distribution channels screen for and will not accept Private Label Rights eBooks. The ready-made eBook content Vic was trying to sell to you? Those are PLR articles, and that sets off a huge red flag for me. What I have found is that writing decent quality, original eBooks about things people want to read will sell. After reading your article and those in the comments, I'm convinced that I don't need this course to continue succeeding with eBooks. Thank you, and congrats on earning your first passive income.CLGPopFaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01161529743328200423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-7177100415337884402012-07-14T02:02:14.094-07:002012-07-14T02:02:14.094-07:00Hi mat!

I was as proud of my first passive income dollar as I was of my very first paycheck. <br /><br />I am going to write another review at midway and at the end of this program. And your comment will definitely help people who have more experience to decide whether they want to buy Vic's program or not. I do hope you'll find some gems in the last 4 modules though.<br /><br />Now I'm off to write a report of my first expressions in SBI. I hope to hear from you again!Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09071115694773187816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-744881266675269822012-07-13T08:38:50.256-07:002012-07-13T08:38:50.256-07:00Hey Jaana. I can see now that Vic's program i...Hey Jaana. I can see now that Vic's program is aimed at complete beginners. And that is fine but in my opinion I wouldn't recommend this to someone who is completely new to online income. At the end of 4 modules I honestly don't know what a newbie would take away from this program in terms of what actions to take. <br /><br />The material has just felt incredibly thin and definitely not worth the cost. The pitch is that he has made millions from ebooks. That's great for him but so far I have not learned how I could duplicate that success. To me that's a misleading and overhyped marketing tactic which comes off as dishonest. This is something I never associate with anything Steve recommends. So I am still puzzled by it. I still have 4 modules left so hopefully my opinion will change by the end. <br /><br />That's great that you are checking out SBI. In my opinion that is BEST option if you want to start your own business. Besides the content and tools what I like about SBI is the community in the forums. You have thousands of people world wide who are trying to accomplish the same goal. So that in itself makes you feel connected and makes you think it's possible. <br /><br />I remember when I started I didn't believe it was possible to make money online. But people kept posting their stories and how they achieved their goals. It takes time but eventually you figure things out. <br /><br />I see that you have made $8 so far online. Thats AWESOME. Congrats. I remember I made my first dollar online about 2 years ago. A whopping total of $3 haha. And that took me 2 years to get there. However, at the time I felt great and I told everyone I felt more proud of that $3 than I did my entire year's salary. This is because it was at times internally difficult for me to believe it was possible but now I had proof. After than I just moving forward and it has been great. <br /><br />I wish you the same as you're off to a good start. Keep it up. Later.mathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12212781565811154036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-1286597638544576822012-07-13T01:55:19.399-07:002012-07-13T01:55:19.399-07:00Hi mat!

I must say that I completely agree with you that SBI feels SO much better than Vic's program. I wish I had joined SBI the first day I found it.<br /><br />I also agree that the pace of this program is slow. I've been using double speed where suitable when listening the sessions. <br /><br />And yes, Vic's program works best for beginners like me. I don't necessarily need over delivery of content like SBI does, I do like when I get condensed information readily picked for me. But Vic's program does not do that either. Lol. <br /><br />I'm still planning to go through Vic's program, even though I am now "distracted" by SBI. Eventually what counts is where the money comes in and as I am newbie, Vic's program contains new information for me :)<br /><br />I hope to hear from you again!Jaanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09071115694773187816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-6711575388767803492012-07-12T15:08:31.323-07:002012-07-12T15:08:31.323-07:00Hey Jaana. I'm about half way through Vic'...Hey Jaana. I'm about half way through Vic's program (just finished my 4th module). So far I have to say I am extremely disappointed by this program. I saw the videos and cheap marketing sales pitches and was extremely turned of by it. <br /><br />The ONLY reason I decided to purchase the program was because of Steve's recommendation. Everything about the program had been a turnoff with the quality of the video pitch, the slow pace of presenter, the inflated expectations etc. <br /><br />I kept telling myself "Why would Steve possibly recommend this ?" I purchased it because I trust Steve's judgement. I bought SBI because of him and that was by far one of the best decisions I ever made. I have been able to make passive income through SBI so I know it works and there are lots of case studies which back up their claims as well. SBI OVER delivers while VIc Johnson's program severely UNDER delivers. <br /><br /> I've been through half of the program and feel like I've learned nothing. Anything I did learn could have been easily summed up in an hour or so. Maybe this is supposed to be for a complete new beginner. Like I said I've been using SBI and have received a far better education and actionable suggestions on what to do to make money online. <br /><br /> I feel like any of the information on Vic's program can be easily googled. Or you can go to Pat Flynn's Smart Passive Income blog (and several great blogs) where you get tons of quality information for free. <br /><br />I wish Steve would have written a review about it (like he does with all his other products) so that I could have determined if it was the right product for me. <br /><br />I'm still going to finish the series because I keep thinking maybe there is something that will make it worth it. But so far I believe this has been a waste of time and if Steve did not recommend this I would have never bought it and asked for my money back a long time ago. I will keep you posted if I discover any insights from the remaining modules. Best of luck.mathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12212781565811154036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-60167790296435466782012-06-12T10:20:15.854-07:002012-06-12T10:20:15.854-07:00Thanks Jaana, I was considering this myself.

While unicornfree's Amy's courses are really full (=one cannot get to them), I kinda realized already that Vic probably had his first 500 on the same day Steve published or something. <br /><br />That is one of the aspects I am worried a bit about this course too. If he is being dishonest then he is probably going to be teaching that too! Maybe some of his teachings will be unusable for me.<br /><br />Thanks for the tip to Market Samurai.

It's $100 but it streamlines the research process quit nicely and can potentially save you a lot of time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7192409794747760706.post-6911844051137796632012-06-03T12:13:58.239-07:002012-06-03T12:13:58.239-07:00Oh, one more thing!

If I had already known how to use these tools together I would probably feel the same.<br /><br />I don't really enjoy watching the videos thinking "he is so wasting my time" and waiting for the good 30-45 minutes that are valuable to me.<br /><br />Also, if I would not be planning on actually publishing an eBook, I would probably have decided not to continue too. <br /><br />If the course continues to deliver what I got from the 2 first videos, I'll be happy.
