Hi Ryan,
Loved the webinar replay - couldn't make the webinar as our internet was down. Talk about annoying!
Thanks so much yet again for providing such stellar information. I would love to take part in the Continuity King 2.0 program soon - after we have made some money to invest in it.
Look forward to the Summit,
Carmena

Ryan - It is amazing to see the impact of two important regulatory changes for internet marketing professionals. The first is the FTC changes regarding testimonials and affiliate representations and the second is the one you so perfectly address here - continuity programs and merchant accounts.

I watched the entire webinar (some parts twice) and sent it to a few friends that operate membership sites and they all thanked me (some twice)! I appreciate the authenticity of your brand by staying on the leading edge of the changes for continuity and how to maximize that opportunity that is always present in times of change.

Best wishes for a blessed "Continuity Summit!"

James

P.S. I hope that everyone took note that this is the PERFECT time to start a continuity program!

Just wondering if the newer links to the inner circle(Continuity King 2.0) is basically the same thing offered here except this model will have Ryan OTS and follow new guidelines.

Ryan - great webinar. Helpful explanations and recommendations for merchants.

Ryan, thanks for the info on the free trial rules. It was enlightening and made me feel more comfortable with my offer. I actually give away a 28 video course with books and manuals for FREE, on the condition the they TRY my coaching program for 14 days for $1. Even though i'm up front with the offer you'll still get people who don't see it, but that's not going to change no matter what you do.

Also, on the complainers that are bitching that you offered them a great opportunity to see you first hand create a membership site from scratch, as we say in NY "$#@! em" All they do is bitch and moan and will never make a $$ online or in any business for themselves anyway. You and Tim provided a ton of great info and even if you gave more, they'd still bitch, cuz that's all they do in life anyway.

Thanks again and I'll continue to follow what you do and the info you have.

BTW, when and where is your continuity summit. I'd love to go. You can reply here or shoot me an email. thanks buddy!

For some reason I am not able to receive/watch the video ... the timer comes on and the viewing bars starts to scroll across but there is nothing on the screen.... pretty frustrating...

Did anyone catch what the new continuity model is?

There was no mention of any new continuity model! Just a veiled pitch for yet another $1997 program.

So, is it $1997.00 and there will be additional software and items you have to purchase once you pay the $1997.00? I am just not getting a clear understanding of how much this actually cost since he mentioned it was going to cost 5K in the video.

We are going to build the site from scratch - and I am going to do it as inexpensively as possible.

There's no software that is needed. You would have to get the obvious (domain name, web host, and an email service.). The only expense is if you are going to have someone professionally design your site. But I'm going to show you how to get that done as inexpensively as possible (and I'll lay out all the options).

It's literally me building a site and acting as if I had no resources. In other words - and inexpensively as possible!

Ryan

Thank you, Ryan, for responding to the cost. It's a big step for me as a single mom of three. I going to have to sleep on it tonight and give it some serious thought.

Thank you, again. I truly am ready for this in every way, it's just that with this kind of investment I typically have more written information documenting what it is that I am actually purchasing and any approximate additional cost that may be involved. I'm sure you can understand that.

Thank you, kindly,

D.

Great info and great value. Thanks Ryan and Tim!

Are you kidding? The so-called "info" was just the lead up to a sales offer for another "get rich" program.
Even his refund guarantee is riddled with loopholes for him not to return your money. The sales page has no mention of even the possibility of a refund! Ryan really pulled the wool over our eyes this time. I'm really disappointed with the guy who claims he is a man of INTEGRITY!

I found the new Mastercard information quite informative. It was well worth it for me to listen to. Regardless of whether you are interested in Ryan's new project or not, at least the first half of the call was solid content.

My recommendation Ryan: make note of "Carli's" IP address. 10:1 odds its a competitor. Easy enough to ban as well as look in your signups to see their true identity.

Get a life "Carli".

Mike

Carli,

First of all, in the 10+ years online - I have never denied anyone a refund. Period.

I do offer a 30 day money back guarantee on this training program. I just want people to actually TAKE ACTION... since most people buy products and do nothing with them. I don't want the usual BS of someone signing up and saying the lame "hey, this doesn't work" crap without doing the assignments.

I'm putting a lot on the line with this program (by building a live continuity program from scratch in a new niche) and all I ask is an honest effort from my students. If you actually try my new program and it doesn't work, you get your money back. Just show me you made an effort. That's really not asking too much.

The last time I did a 'live' online training program - I did not have one person ask for a refund. Not a single one. And if they did, I would have given their money back.

Ask one of my clients (who shall remain nameless), who had some hard times in the real estate market last year and couldn't afford my $10K coaching program anymore. I still let him stay in the program for free.

Ask another one of my clients who wanted us to create a web site for him. His child got sick and had a big medical bill. I wrote him a check for $1,000 out of my own pocket (even though he wasn't supposed to get a refund).

If you really think I'd still be around online for this long, and have so many loyal customers, by trying to grab people's money and run, then you are surely mistaken.

Sorry - but you got me fired up!

You can question lots of things - but do NOT question my integrity.

Tell me you don't like my NY accent. Or you think I talk to fast. Of you hate the quality of my video recording. But don't question my integrity.

If you don't want to buy my products or programs - then don't.

If you don't think I provide quality information - then unsubscribe from my emails.

If you think I would really take people's money - and try and screw them out of their hard earned money, then PLEASE unsubscribe from my list right now.

And while I'm on a friggen role...

Regarding content.... The first 35 minutes were pure content. Was the end a pitch for a new program? Yes.

I always said if you provide good value - there is nothing wrong with trying to make a sale too.

People do not have to purchase my product or do any of my training. You could have hung up after the first 35 minutes and been happy with the FREE webinar.

99% of the information I put on this site and in my emails are free. There's nothing wrong with asking for a sale.

Ok, I'm done with my rant.

I'll keep rockin' on!

Ryan

Ryan...

I deal with this type of comment in my niche all the time. I know it's frustrating, but don't rise to the bait. Trust me, responding doesn't make you feel any better.

Maybe this will, though. I've been doing what I do for ten years and I look at everyone internet marketer's information. Sometimes I subscribe to their list. Sometimes I don't. Very rarely, I'll purchase some product from that person.

One of the people I have NO problem spending money with is Ryan. This guy gives the best bang for the buck I've ever seen. He OVERdelivers time and time again.

For the record, I'm pretty sure I was one of the first people to sign up for the new Continuity King. Why... because I have no doubt I'll be making my money back before the credit card bill comes due.

In fact, I've made it my personal goal to be one of your case studies at the Continuity Summit. So, BRING IT ON!

John

Ryan dont try to use anymore EZS3 will not help you.
I can download the webminar without problem with this protection and i dont talk about screen recording.
So dont spend your money or your time with this because you just loss some bucks.
Just my 2 cents

Marius

In fact we have always said not to spend too much time trying to protect your content
http://www.ezs3.com/blog/?p=96

But we provide a lot more services which our users like and we make video and audio easy.. very easy.

$20 per month is easily saved in time.

As our customers are people like Tony Robbins, Frank Kern, Ryan Deiss, Jeff Walker, Dan Kennedy.. we get asked for services that they need.. and once we build them.. they are available to all our users!

If you can watch something on your computer, you can download a copy. There's no such thing as an "uncopyable" online video. You might have to jump through hoops, but if somebody wanted to copy anything they can view online they'd be able to.

Somehow, I doubt Ryan is too worried about it. I know I certainly don't worry about it with my own videos. I'll either make it easy and obvious to download or else do just enough to keep the average person from saving something depending on what I want to offer, and then I won't worry about it.

Marius,

There are different levels of protection you can enable (or choose not to) in ezs3. I don't think Ryan is particular worried about anyone downloading the webinar. In fact if you want to share it that's probably fine. It was free anyways.

That is interesting feedback Marius. I would be curious to what Ryan has to say about this. MemberGate endorses Amazon EZS3 to all their 1100 members. And I can't imagine that MemberGate would refer members to a service that will allow members to download and steal their videos and webinars.

Can you download videos too? or just webinar?

Thanks for sharing. Just about to start watching and expecting some great content!
