In my first post of the year I mentioned that I would be doing some product reviews. If you are online to build a business then you have already been hit with the realization that you will need certain products and services.
I prefer being able to get a behind the scenes look at them before I decide whether they are the right ones for me. That’s why I personally love product reviews!
It’s even better when that review is being done by people I already know and trust. I know that my friends and associates would never review a product they didn’t believe in themselves.
There are so many great products out there but let’s be honest. We can’t buy them all although some people do their very best.
I decided to write my first review on My Lead System Pro. I’ve been using it for several months now and finally feel pretty comfortable in the members area and what all this service has to offer.
For those who are already part of this system I hope you’re doing really well with not only promoting it but learning new marketing skills. I mean why become a member if you don’t take advantage of it right.
Are you ready to check out the members areas? Well then, let’s get started…
So what did you think? Are you using My Lead System Pro or another generic marketing system? Are you learning new marketing skills? Do you have something to share with those people who are not interested in your network marketing opportunity but want to learn more about marketing online?
We all know coming into this that not everyone will want what you have to offer and that’s okay. It’s good to be able to present other products or services to them that they may need. It’s always been great for me when I purchase something from someone I know because I feel comfortable asking them questions about it. Maybe how they are using it or what works best for them.
Just in case you are interested in taking it for a test drive, you can get access for the first 14 days for less than $10. Just head on over to My Lead System Pro and check out their video. I’m sure they can explain it even better than me. If you would like to read their blog and sign up for their Wednesday free webinars, you can visit My Lead System Pro Blog here. Just check it out and see what you think.
So how did I do? Did you enjoy my first product review? I want to be able to provide the best information for you all so I’m open for suggestions.
Always look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Hi Adrienne,
Webinars are something I’d like to dig deeper into in the future. WIth niche sites in mind currently there’s too many projects to finish all at once. This product seems very helpful. Webinars and videos have always been more fresh / easier to understand and keeps my attention longer. You’ve got a great commentary voice and are very clear. Have you heard of reviewme? What about doing a review on Market Samurai – one of my favorite tools for niche sites, SEO and marketing!
Till next time,

Hi Ryan,
I enjoy webinars too when they are teaching me something. That’s one of the things I like about this community because that’s exactly what they do and I walk away really having applicable steps to implement.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed my review. I appreciate that, it’s my first one if you can believe that.
I’ve never heard of Reviewme I’m afraid. Is that some type of review site?
I don’t use Market Samurai so I can’t do a review on that one I’m afraid. I’ll only do them on products I’ve used. I got it as a test a few years back but found it way too confusing for me I’m afraid. So can we see one from you?
Thanks for your comment Ryan, it’s greatly appreciated.

Hi Adrienne,
Good job on your first product review of the year! My Lead System Pro is an incredible tool for generating leads. However, my favorite benefit of this system is the training. I’ve learned so much from the free weekly webinars as well as the training available to members. Anyone who doesn’t have a marketing system in place yet, should definitely take a look at My Lead System Pro.

Hi Jamella,
Thank you, so I do okay?
I agree with you, it’s an incredible tool and they’ve vastly improved over the last few years. I signed up with them about two years ago and they were nowhere at the place they are now. I have really learned some fabulous things from their training so I definitely agree with you.
Happy to hear you’re using the system. We should compare notes!
Have a great day Jamella!

Hi Adrienne,
Just had to barge in on this little comment here because I was about to say the same thing you did regarding the evolution of MLSP.
I had gotten with MLSP when they first emerged and I was completely confused with it at that time. To me, it was a jumbled mess, but that may have also been more due to where my “mind” was on this subject of internet marketing at that time.
I re-engaged my MLSP over the past year and it appeared to have taken a new form which was much easier for me to digest. The truth is that there’s so much we may learn in this internet marketing world that it’s a challenge in and of itself to organize the information in a way that is usable (and hopefully “user friendly”) to the end-user.
One that that is remarkable about MLSP is exactly what you said…they serve it up in actionable steps. The training calls are exceptional and so are the archives! I simply love being able to go into the back office and “dig up” old lessons or calls I may have missed or just need a refresher-course!
The other thing that really stands out here is the level of support we get with the membership community. I have had extremely quick turnaround on support tickets when I’ve required help finding where specific information is located in the suite of tools.
I think you did an exceptional job on this review, Adrienne!

Hi Cat,
Thank you for sharing your own experience with MLSP as well. I also connected with them a couple of years ago and like you I think it was just all too confusing for me but I also wasn’t sure the direction I was headed either.
I do like that they have made it much easier to follow and like you said, their support is wonderful. I wouldn’t say that it’s all easy to set up because if you’re a complete newbie some things you’ll still find confusing but we are all here to help so no one is left alone.
Glad to hear that you’ve enjoyed this system as well Cat. I’m going to give you a new name, the system queen, because of all these new ones you’re checking out. I love it and you’ll be my go to girl now.
Glad to hear I did okay with this review. Was a little nervous but I think I covered the majority of it. I think I already know what my next one will be now.
Stay tuned for that.
Always a pleasure to see and hear from you Cat, thank you.
Hope you’ve enjoyed your day. See ya soon.

Hey Adrienne,
It definitely sounds like our experience with MLSP has been similar!
I also agree that it’s not the easiest way to start. This is part of why I have become the “System Queen” (lol I think it may indeed be a “befitting” nickname, so thanks for that).
I’ve been working my way through these new systems to see what they’re all made of. I don’t think there’s ever any holy grail to speak of, but they are unique and distinct from others and some are much simpler for a newbie than others. It’s all such a fun discovery process. I’m just happy to be in a position to try it out and dish on the goodies.
I definitely think you did a great job on your MLSP review too! Can’t wait to hear more about the next one you are going to share!! I’ll be staying tuned!
Having a great start to the week here and also enjoyed my day, so thanks for that! Hope yours was very productive and FUN too!

Hey Cat,
Yes, most definitely similar experiences and I have a feeling we’re not the only ones too.
Oh yeah, you’re now the “System Queen” in my book. If anyone wants to know about any of these beforehand I’ll send them to you and let them know that I definitely trust your opinion. I think that not all systems or training communities are the same. There’s no one size fits all. I think that’s why we may have so many of them to be honest with you. But that’s okay, as long as people learn and grow, just go with whatever suits you best. That’s my opinion.
Thanks again Cat, I really appreciate that!
So glad to hear your week has been going great and I most definitely hope it continues. Mine has been wonderful but busy and that’s how I like it.
Take care!

Great product review.
MLSP really is a good product. I have used it in the past but are not using it now.
They have a lot more in their back office now. I may consider using them again but right now I think I have more to do than I can get done.
Thanks for the great view of what they have to offer.

Hey Adrienne,
I use MLSP currently, the training is great but it is definitely not for everyone. The system has to be connected to a marketing strategy that generates leads that have a problem MLSP can solve. There is a lot of information in the backoffice so you have to pick a strategy to master then go for it! Otherwise, you will be overwhelmed trying to learn everything. Great post. Thanks again for the great insight!

Hi Aisha,
You are right, it’s not for everyone which is why I wanted to do this review. It’s geared mainly toward network marketers but if you want to learn how to market, they’ve got some really great training for that.
After getting everything set up you definitely need to head over to marketing strategies and decide which direction you want to go first and dive in. Doing everything at once had never benefited anyone.
Thanks for your input and happy to hear you are using this system.

To be very honest, I had never heard about My Lead System Pro before this post! I guess I am not really the marketing kind of person or never came across such information earlier.
But I like the video that explains a great deal and the steps are explained pretty well on their website as well, which would make it easier to understand things as well.
Glad you came up with your first product review, as promised at the beginning of the year
I would soon be checking out their website to learn more about this and see if its something that I can use.
Thanks so much for sharing, and hope you are having a great weekend as well

Hi Harleena,
Wow, this is a first. You’ve never heard of My Lead System Pro before reading my post? So there are still people who haven’t run across this system before.
They do have step by step instructions for setting everything up so I have found that to be very helpful. Some systems I’ve found not to be as easy. Of course, some people will still say it’s not easy.
Thanks Harleena, I was trying to decide which one to do first.
If you have any questions about it at all, let me know. Will be happy to answer those for you.
Have a wonderful day and a fabulous week!

I was trying to sell myself; I could tell you some stories, wash your car, walk your dog…..
Of course in my business, we are always looking to identify the prospects that fit our model and w/in a 50 mi radius of my office there are literally thousands. My personal model now is more ‘who might know who’, but that has come from many years of being involved in the community. However, there is always a plum that pops up we don’t know anything about and sometimes we just have to wade right in and see what happens.
Thanks for sharing, always very informative.

Hey Bill,
Yeah, me too! How’s that working for ya? I bet everyone in your business loves you…
Referrals are some of the best prospects Bill. Because you’ve already built up that relationship with your current customers they should help you by giving you referrals. I’m sure they would want their friends to have the best service when it comes to insurance. I know the service is very important but who is representing you is even better. Do you know that I haven’t heard from my insurance agent in over 15 years. The man has yet to even pick up the phone and see how I am and I’ve been with them since I was 16 years old. I’ve seriously been considering changing too. That’s one of the main reasons.
Thanks Bill and I always appreciate your comments. Hope you have a wonderful week.

Hi Adrienne,
I haven’t been there to check them out but will make a point of watching their video….. now you’ve brought it to our attention.
I like what you said about concentrating on one area of education and completing it before moving on to the next, regarding Facebook etc. I’ve been learning the basics of them all but not really mastering any one of them before moving onto the next one, although I think I’m pretty good on the Twitter side of things some of the others need to brushed up on.
It all sounds really good Adrienne and thanks to your review we can all see the benefits now as well. With the major being able to learn from people that have been where we are as they’ll know exactly what we’re facing and how to get over, around or charge on through it
Thanks Adrienne,
Take care,

Hi Barry,
I know you aren’t in network marketing and it’s a great system for getting people interested in what you have to offer but it’s also a great way to help people learn how to market because we all know it’s an area that need perfecting.
It’s best to start with an area of interest and learn everything you can about it. For instance Facebook, they have so many tutorial videos that others that came before us have shared what they learned and how they are getting it to work for them now. I was speaking with a gentleman on the phone last week and I told him that you just need to master one area before moving on because that’s where information overload comes in. I KNOW you know about that! We both have been guilty.
Thanks for your comment Barry, I really appreciate it. I’m so sorry you had a recent mishap with your switch. So glad it wasn’t any worse then it was.
Have a great week Barry and we’ll be chatting again soon.

Hey Adrienne,
Great review on MLSP! I have attended several webinars from them in the past and I have to say it is hands down TOP NOTCH information.
I am also familiar with at least three other similar systems (their competition) and MLSP is a lot better in several aspects.
As I don’t represent MLSP in any way whatsoever, I just want to add these three points here regarding their competition with other three companies:
1. Price (MLSP is at least the second most affordable one of the 4 systems I know)
2. Brand (The most affordable of the four systems, does not allow its members to build their own brand using the included member’s resources)
3. Momentum (One of the other systems has its main focus based on Article Marketing, lost their momentum a lot of time ago and it’s the most expensive of all)
I attended a webinar on twitter marketing/strategies not long ago, just to check if they were using rehashed trainings or were actually updated on the subject, and man, I was BLOWN away.
If I had to recommend a marketing training/system to anyone out there, it’d definitely be MLSP.
And as a last note, people make the systems work, not the other way around. If you don’t work it, you won’t get results.
Hope this helps your readers Adrienne, speak soon!

Hey Sergio,
Thanks so much for your input. I actually started a few years back in another top generic training system as well but I must admit, I found it so confusing. Heck, if I had problems getting around in it and “following their tutorials” then I can only imagine who else would. Actually some of the people who signed up under me had a heck of a time so when they went to support, they were charged for their time. I was appalled which is why I no longer promote that one. I do think that MLSP is one of the best now.
I do like that although they may still have all their training in the members area for you to see, they are constantly updating it as things change but it does no one any good if it isn’t current.
I appreciate your candid view on this Sergio and it’s just good to get other people opinions as well. It’s not for everyone but for those who are shopping for a system, this one gets my vote.
Always a pleasure to see you! Hope you had a really great weekend and are looking forward to the week. By the way, I got five videos shot yesterday, we finally had some decent weather and today the sun is shining. All that rain blew in a cold front so it’s very chilly now.
Yey!!
Later my friend!
OMG five videos in just one day! (Did you miss Madonna’s performance yesterday?)
I thought maybe the weather was part of a conspiracy to procrastinate! haha j/k I’m glad you already got those videos down Adrienne and looking forward for the week as well.

hi and thanks for this… tho’… not sure if i missed something or not… i suspect i have… not sure…
tho’ i’m still not really sure what these type of “systems” are really meant to do… it seems that it’s just more “stuff” to take in with needing so much more time to do so when time is really limited to start with……. and another expense added…
not long ago, i paid a good chunk of money joining and tried a similar “system” before and found i was needing to spend so much more time to market it instead of my own business it seemed…. with not very good results in the end…
i can understand the “training” part where it offers this – tho’ i find i’ve learned a lot in other more affordable ways too… guess it’s not for me???
most sincerely, weaver

Hi Weaver,
I know you are in network marketing correct? So when you speak to people about your business does everyone want to join? No, they don’t. But what do people want to learn how to do who are in network marketing? They want to learn how to market their business. This is what these generic training systems do. They teach you how to market no matter what business you’re in. So maybe the people who aren’t interested in joining your business will be interested in learning how to market their own.
Now some of them will offer other products you can purchase but they aren’t necessary. If you want to learn how to market in a specific area, you concentrate on just that area. You implement what you’ve learned until you start seeing results. You just continue going from there.
Your business is important but without the skills and the knowledge to actually market your business, you will just be spinning your wheels. I do hope you are receiving training some place that has been helpful Weaver. Like I mentioned in my post, this isn’t for everyone, but for those needing a system, this is definitely the one I recommend.
Thanks for your comment and hope you’re enjoying your afternoon!

hi Adrienne – thanks for your prompt reply – wow… love how you are so approachable and appreciate it… and again, thanks for your words re this…. i believe i understand better now… and yes i’m in network marketing… and our company is actually offering a lot of free online training (a complete system) including other options – some that are paid and some that are not…
i have found that a lot of folk who join this profession really don’t have the time to do much else tho’ i understand that there are some alternative options out there to those that would….

Hey Weaver,
You are so welcome, I definitely reply to ALL of my comments and do my very best to respond that same day. I’m honestly here to help so thank you for that. I’ve very approachable so if you ever have any questions about anything, don’t be bashful. I don’t claim to know everything but I definitely know quite a bit.
A lot of companies will have plenty of training but the problem with their training Weaver is they are showing you how to promote their company website. That is NOT what you want to do. This is a people business so sending someone to your company website, you aren’t going to get a lot of interested people unless they are specifically looking for that particular opportunity and they don’t care who they join under. I’m afraid that is not a lot of people.
You want to learn how to market you Weaver, not your opportunity. People join people, someone they know they can trust, someone they know will support them. The opportunity is the way to make money but no one will ever accomplish that without the support or knowledge of how to do that the right way. Make sense?
It does take a lot of work to learn how to market and prospect when you are new to network marketing. 97% of the people it will make more than a couple of years because of the learning curve but if you just keep going and don’t give up, your time will come. I definitely was no overnight success I can tell you that. Just don’t quit and you’ll get there too.
Thank you Weaver and so glad you enjoy my blog! Hope you’ve been having a really great day!

Hey Peggy,
You’ve never heard of this system either? Wow, I’m surprised but glad I did it now.
The reason it’s great for network marketers is because like I mentioned in the video, people who may not join your opportunity will still need training. Those brand new to the industry are probably not receiving any just coming into this. What I love about their training is it will teach you how to market. It’s mainly about branding you because we all know this is a people business. You can still get a lot of value from the training itself if that’s what you are in need of.
Hope that explanation helped.
By the way, I corrected your missed letter for ya! I hate that when that happens right as I’m hitting submit! lol..
Have a great week Peggy, I know you are getting ready to head off to your conference. I’m sure you’ll have a great time.
Gee Adrienne I thought you did a great job!. I never tried a Webinar before. I want to learn more about them too. I like your video and your Lead Pro System. It looks interesting. I’m not into marketing but I liked your video. I think you should make more. You have such a friendly voice.

I think you did a great review here. Well, as a very beginner, I had no idea about My lead System Pro.
I think that at first place I will focus on the free web seminars. I am currently working on setting up a good design and migrate my site and I really don’t have enough time to subscribe and learn a marketing area. Nevertheless I think this will be in my to do list in the following months because I want to learn
Thank you for this video and review provided.

You can just continue your “to do” list for when you are ready to expand your knowledge. Things can be overwhelming here but just take it a little at a time. Dive into learning one area and then when you master that, move on to another.

And thank you for the advice. That is exactly what I was thinking to do. Little by little… if not I feel overbooked! The great point is that I love this field and everything I learn

Hi Adrienne,
Having used My Lead System Pro myself in the past I agree that as systems go they provide a huge amount of value and support for someone wanting to learn more about online marketing.
What I realise about systems like this however is that they only work when the person using them is ready, which is why there are people who are successful and people who not successful using this and all other systems too.
In my experience there were two issues that I found problematic when it came to My Lead System Pro:
There is so much information and stimulation for the newbie that it can be a challenge for them to focus on one thing at a time. As we know this is critical for success.
Secondly I did not like the continual product upsells at the end of almost every webinar.
True you don’t have to buy everything and you and I wouldn’t, but this is not the same for new people. They are only too eager to part with their credit card details and buy even more information to add to the overload and confusion.
I understand that this is the basis of a sales funnel but I don’t believe it helps new people and after all this is who the system is aimed at if I am not wrong?
This does not mean that it’s not a great product, it is, however people thinking of using it must buy it via someone who is prepared to mentor them such as you Adrienne. They must also be prepared to listen and follow your advice.
The system is simply a framework and then you need the right attitude and a mentor. You I am quire sure compliment this system as mentor just beautifully Adrienne.

Hi Marcus,
Glad to hear that you’ve used this one in the past as well.
You are absolutely right too, the person has to be ready. You need to be focused on your education and taking massive action through what you have learned in order for this to work for you just like anything else.
I know what you mean, there is so much information to absorb. That’s why I believe that whoever you can in under should help you sort through where to start. Like I call all my leads, those that left me their number, and email those who didn’t. I just let them know that I’m here for them to help. I don’t want them getting confused about what to do first.
I also will agree with you about all the upsells. When I was first starting I thought that everything was something I needed which lead to information overload and overwhelm. I know that the newbies don’t understand that and I also know that MLSP is here to make money as well. I get all of that now so for us who have been here awhile we can ignore it and continue on. I’m with you on that one.
I also like to share with my team that they want to build their own list so it doesn’t all just funnel into MLSP. We know how those generic marketing systems are so that’s another thing I like about this one. Send them to your own list but still introduce them to the system.
I appreciate that Marcus, thank you. You know me, I’m a helping machine. I wear myself out sometimes but I love it. Because now I only attract those who are eager to do the work and excited about their future. Thanks for the vote of confidence.
Have a beautiful day Marcus. I’m behind on my commenting so I’ll will see you today for sure.
Hi Adrienne,
You did an excellent job on your first product review!
I’ve heard of MLSP before, and actually have considered joining. The biggest thing that has held me back is simply time. I need more hours in the day to review the training materials, and more hours to implement the information. But, that’s the same barrier that most everyone faces.
One of the things I like about MLSP which you touched upon is the sales funnel aspect of it. The sales funnel is a way make some money while trying to build your team for your primary opportunity. Like you said, not everyone is going to want to be a part of your primary opportunity, but you can still provide value to them and reap some monetary benefit from that. The other aspect is that you can improve your conversions into your primary opportunity with those that come through your sales funnel. If somebody has already purchased something from you, and you’ve provided superior value with that product, those people will more inclined to purchase from you again or join your opportunity based on the relationship and value you’ve already established. All definite advantages to using a system and sales funnel as part of your business.
I need to spend more time working on the front end of my sales funnel and start promoting in some new areas. My blog has only been up for a couple of months so I’ve spent most of my time dealing with that. Now that it’s running fairly smoothly, I need to start focusing on some marketing to help with lead generation and making some money. I like what you said about focusing on one area at a time, though. I tend to suffer from ADD when it comes to online and network marketing, and don’t give myself enough time to master a tactic. But that’s going to change.
I hope you have a great day and thanks for sharing your video!

Hi Barry,
Thank you so much for saying that, I really appreciate it. I was a little nervous I must admit.
You definitely want to join when you can put aside the time to dive in. The initial setup is the most time consuming and learning how to create your campaigns. But once you have that all into place you would want to spend at least an hour a day on training. Decide which area you want to learn first and then go through their training and then implement it as you go.
Your mindset has to be in the right place though because I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that so many people have such good intentions but then never follow through. What I love about this system is that as you mentioned here, not eveyone will want to join what you have but you definitely want to help them learn how to have success themselves.
As a lot of the leaders that we are now learning from here in MLSP, they dove into one specific area and learned everything they could. They’re now having huge success and have now created their own products around how they’ve done what they’ve done. So whether you want to start learning Facebook, videos, articles, paid advertising, placing ads, whatever area you want, run with it until you have mastered that as well and are seeing results.
Your blog is looking really great Barry so now it’s time to step it up and start getting you some traffic my friend. This may be a learning process but you are definitely headed in the right direction.
Thanks for your wonderful comment and thanks so much for sharing your opinion with me. It’s always appreciated.
Have a great week.
Great review! I am somewhat new to online marketing and as a “veteran newbie” I wouldn’t be without My Lead System Pro. It has helped me stay focused on what I need to do to earn money online. It has helped me stream line my “to do” list.

Hi Cathy,
Thank you, I appreciate that!
I’m so thrilled to hear that you are also using MLSP and you’ve found it extremely helpful. It’s hearing from people like you that make it all worthwhile. Keep up the excellent work.
Thanks so much and hope you’re enjoying your week.
Adrienne, aloha. Congrats on your first review. You did a great job reviewing this system and showing the possibilities with it.
Though I signed up for it about a year ago, it was simply not a fit for me at that time. Based on what you are saying and showing, I may revisit it.
One thing I know for sure, Adrienne, is I always prefer to read a review by someone I know, Like and trust. And, if I am going to buy something, I always prefer to buy from that person as well.
Wishing you much success MLSP. And, always, best wishes for a wonderful week ahead. Until next time, aloha. Janet

Hi Janet,
Ah thank you Janet, so glad you approve and happy to hear that I was able to show others what it can offer.
I totally understand because I did that probably two years ago. I think it was too confusing for me back then and I wasn’t really sure about the direction I was headed. I balked a lot about signing up again but in all honesty, I really wanted the training and the support from the other members so I’m happy I went this route.
I agree Janet, I would much rather purchase something or sign up with someone I trusted that wouldn’t steer me wrong. Not that I would annoy them to death with questions but just knowing they are there for me is very comforting to me personally.
Thank you Janet and I appreciate your candid comment. I always enjoy hearing from you.
Hope your week has been a good one so far. I know your lunch was wonderful so hope the rest of your week is just as good.
Take care!
Hi, Adrienne,
Awesome review! I really like the way that you review MLSP only at a time that you are comfortable with promoting it.
I joined in late September last year and have since than been on a very steep learning curve. I knew nothing about blogging, hosting my own website, optin page, building a list, email marketing, etc. Now I am having a functional blog
I had encountered many technical challenges that I believe I could not have solved without the help of a business mentor specifically for helping me to ‘bridge the gaps’. Having said that,the new orientation video is a great help. I remember feeling so confused that I have to ask my sponsor all the time what my next step should be.
I easy to apply “Campaigns” are the BEST part of the system, allowing us to get leads without even having a blog or autoresponder
Awesome job that you have done, Adrienne. Keep up the good work!

Hi Viola,
Thank you Viola so since you are a part of this system, I covered pretty much everything important! That’s good to hear.
If you’re new to this industry there is definitely a big learning curve but man, you’ve come such a long way. That in itself is such an accomplishment. I applaud you for all the hard work you’ve put in and it shows.
Thank you for sharing that with me, it’s always great to hear from people who are using this system as well. I appreciate you sharing that.
Hope you’ve had a great start to your week Viola and thanks again.

Well, you know I signed up awhile ago, but I never did anything more than that
One of my goals was to stop signing up for everything…well, I already broke that goal, but I told the person whom I signed up under to not expect much from me. So, with that being said, while it looks like an excellent program, I just can’t sign up for anything else.
I hope it is working out well for you, Adrienne!
Good luck with it!

Hey Linda,
I remember you telling me that. There is a lot of training here that is really good but you have to put the time aside and just dive in.
I know what you mean about signing up with a lot of stuff. I had to finally cut myself off too. I understand what you mean so you need to just concentrate on the projects you have in front of you right now and then move to the next one when you’re ready. That’s the only way you’ll get anywhere.
It really is working for me so I’m very pleased, thanks.
Have a great day and I’ll be sending you my thoughts today on that project. Yesterday was a killer day!
I’ve really cut back on the number of videos I watch online. They take a lot of time. If I think I might have an interest I’ll download it. And, my speakers aren’t working. I have been familiar with this product for quite some time.
Hi Adrienne, I suggest two things.
First, you include a short written review. It’s valuable for two reasons. First, I can know in a minute if I’m going to be interested. But more importantly, you get more SEO out of the deal.
Secondly, my guess you tested out another product or two before you made a decision. I’d like to see/hear a comparison and know why you chose one over the other. Perhaps include a chart of features. This product may be perfect for you, but another may be a better one for me. Perhaps you touched on this.
Keep up the good work, Adrienne. Is it getting warm there yet?

I know what you mean Morris, videos are very time consuming. Especially training because we are taught to spend an hour a day learning new things and some of these videos alone are an hour and half. Then you can’t start implementing what you’ve learned because the time you set aside for that is over. They are worth the time to watch them but you really have to limit yourself.
I know, I should do like bullet points right! Darn it, I thought about that but I guess I got so wrapped up in this that it slipped my mind. It was something I was going to incorporate so I’ll make sure to do that one on my next video review. Thanks for that suggestion Morris. This is my first review.
I was in another one before that but I’m no longer in it. I would prefer just doing reviews of products I’m a member of or am using and I really don’t want to bash anyone but you’re right. The other one I found way too confusing and so did some of the people that signed up with me. I’m sure for more advanced users it may be just what they need too, you’re right about that. So that would be a little difficult to do.
I had just let my readers know that I would be doing some reviews of products and services I am using because people ask me all the time about things I use. I guess it’s been a disservice not sharing more things with everyone. Shame on me!
Thanks for your suggestions Morris, I really do appreciate that.
Actually, last week was almost in the 80′s with an entire week of rain. This week the temperatures have dropped down again and we’re in the high 40′s to low 50′s right now but the sun is out. Yey!! It’s a yo yo here Morris. I always kid and say I should have been a weather forecaster because it’s the only job you can screw up in constantly and not get fired. lol…
Hey Adrienne!
MLSP rocks, doesn’t it? So much information down so many avenues. We have access to the best of the best when it comes to the online arena. I have been a member for a quite a while and can’t imagine ever ending my membership.
Anyone who is involved with a network marketing company, and wants to take their business online, is crazy if they don’t join. That’s my 2-cents worth

Hey Brock!
That’s awesome, thanks for adding that to the conversation Brock.
I knew you were using this system so it’s always great to hear from people who are using it and are having great results. It really is a wealth of information and I tell you if you want to know how to do something you don’t need to look far.
I appreciate you sharing that and sure hope you’re doing good. Oh heck, I know you are !
Have a great week Brock.

Hi Adrienne,
Your review is awesome, and your voice is crystal clear. It’s very easy to follow each step, and even Norwegians can follow every detail, and that’s very important
This is actually the first time I’ve looked at My Lead System Pro, and I’m impressed by the system and especially by the training. To me, training is one of the most important aspects of marketing, and especially for people new to online marketing. It’s hard to make it without the proper knowledge. And webinars are awesome.
Thanks a lot for making this review, and keep them coming

Hi Jens,
Oh that’s good to hear and even you could understand me. Guess that means I don’t have that much of a drawl! lol…
I signed up with them a couple years ago. Actually, I met Bryan and Norbett at a conference and they gave us the opportunity to get it and look around for $1 back then. I did a little bit but really just didn’t have the time to spend with it the way I should. I was already with another system so I passed on using this one then. It’s definitely grown and has a lot more training now. They’ve done an excellent job of putting this together I admit.
Glad you enjoyed this review an although I know they aren’t people’s favorites, I’m going to keep them coming. Thank you Jens!
i never knew wat a My Lead System Pro was? well this post of urs is just amazing Adrienne..thanx again for sharing this wonderful post.

Hi Adrienne.
I’m glad I came across your website. I’ve been wanting to get into a Work from Home business, but am struggling with fear of which ones may be scams and which ones may be legit. I’m not looking for a get rich quick scheme (although, I’m not opposed to becoming rich), but I’m looking for a legit good money making online business. If you have reviewed any, and have any recommendations, I would greatly appreciately your input. I’ve looked into the MLSP, but haven’t ordered it because I haven’t even started an online based business yet. While watching the video offer for MLSP, I became so confused and have the feeling when I order it and receive everything, I’ll be totally LOST! But, one step at a time. First I have to find a legitimate online business where I can make good money from the time and effort I put into it. Time and effort isn’t my problem, I have plenty of it. But finding a legitimate business that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to get started is where I’m struggling. HELP! Your input is wanted….NEEDED.

Hi Diane,
I know what you mean, this place can be so overwhelming but I tell you what. Why don’t we continue this conversation over the phone and I can give you my honest opinion. I am involved in a work at home business so I can share with you what I’m involved in and if it’s something you may be interested in great. If not, that’s okay too and maybe I can point you in the right direction since I have so many wonderful friends in this industry that will treat you right.
I’ll send you an email with my information and we can set up a time to talk. Sound good? I don’t want you to get bogged down with way too much information. Maybe my explanation can help.
Until then, you enjoy your evening and we’ll talk soon!

Hi Adrienne
Thanks for the walk through the back office. I am about to jump on board with you in MLSP. I have been aware of the system for some time and been resisting due to my lack of success with another one. But in all honesty I used that when I first came online and knew nothing.
So about to give this a whirl. Thanks for the review.

Hi Sue,
Thank you so much for signing up and hope this video was a little bit of help to get you started once you get back there. Accept for today, you know I’ll be around to help you. So just take your time and go through all the getting started section and most of it is pretty self explanatory. It’s much easier than that other one, trust me. I was there with you and it was way over my head.
Thank you Sue and enjoy your day.
