Empower Network Review – Best Blogging, Marketing, Training System in 2015?
For the first time in a long time, I'd like to chime in on the changes transpiring around the Empower Network paradigm.
Why? Because a seismic shift is taking place and it is truly exciting once again.
Who are we and why should you listen to us?
For starters, formerly a top 10 all time recruiter and top 25 compensation plan producer, Melissa and I have been at every rank on the leaderboard since we joined back on November 25, 2011 (only a month after the official Empower Network company launched).
But truth be told, we haven't been breathing, teaching or living the Empower Network air for over 18 months now…Why?
Well despite being in the lime light and tight knit with the Empower Network affiliates and team members, the momentum and overall motivation just was not there. But it turns out it wasn't only us to feel this downward spiraling shift.
Let me explain.
Take a look at the Google Trends graphic display of the overall search volume of Empower Network from start to current (August 2015).
That pretty peaking point at the top was April 2013, a month which featured Empower Network's largest events held in Chicago with over 5,000 in attendance…so what happened?
Bu-Bu-By-By-Blog Beast … is … what … happened … but, but let me finish.
Then, after the blogging blunder blow up of Blog Beast, leaders and co-founders started disappearing after their January 2014 Miami event (nearly 3,000 active in the seats).
So the spiraling downfall had already begun to take place.
The #1 Income Earner left, the right hand man of David Wood left, and then the #2 money generator left for another company and all hell started breaking loose…
But, that was 2013 and 2014 – we are over half way through 2015 – why is Empower Network still relevant? or are they?
Well, for one you are here. Now. And Empower Network, after stopping in on their latest Rise event in Las Vegas (only about a 1,000 or so in seats); we can honestly and willingly say Empower Network is back.
Although they never technically left the MLM / Network Marketing / Affiliate Commissions / Blogging scene, anyone in their right mind would say they had to work through their worries and even a few blizzard flurries with a change up of infrastructure, founders and technology teams.
But why the sudden sensation and mental notion that Empower Network is back?
Empower Network Review – Expert Evaluation
By now, we all know the beginning history about Empower Network's birth in October 2011. Pursued by their immediate and immaculate rise to Internet Marketing fame and success in under 2 years – only to experience their catastrophic free falling into the burning flames of the ‘scuzzy pyramid scheme' label-laden industry. They were cast and written off like Tom Hawks and his beloved volleyball Wilson.
So why the do we feel like Empower is about to climb through the slime and reach their prime once again?
Merging iPAS2 System & Empower Network Opportunity
What is iPAS2? For some it could possibly be your first time hearing about it? And others, well we all know it will be our last – as it doesn't exist anymore – why?
While this review of Empower is turning a bit into a historic conversation about its' story, iPAS 2 played a pivotal role in keeping this company alive during those downtimes.
Once Empower Network Founder Dave Wood started reconfiguring and reconstituting the corporate team and company mission from the inside out, things started to turn around for the better, albeit slowly.
But while that swirling swirley of a situation was being gutted, flushed and cleaned out, the founder of the Internet Prospecting Acceleration System (iPAS) Chris Jones was just releasing and revealing his premium marketing system that complimented all of Empower Network's products, trainings, and platforms extremely well…
So while EN was barely buzzing and breathing and but a shadow of its once-sensational shell, here was iPAS2 carrying the torch and keeping the core nucleus of Empower Network leaders and affiliates together just long enough for Chris Jones and Dave Wood to come together and rebrand this company to make it whole.
In order for peak performance and plenitful profits to start pouring in again like the golden days, this was a vital decision and direction that had to be made.
And now, like a phoenix rising up from the flames, we believe the Empower Network company and affiliates we be renewed and reignited in light of this new found and profound merge.
The Future of Empower Network
Empower Network, in all it's new-beginning business triumph or new-age blogging transformation, knows everything starts with sparks and has consistently shown their guts, gusto and glory time and time again in their ‘whole-systems solution story' …
Q4 Empower Network Blogging Update: KALATU has now been released. Check out ENv3 Blog Platform now.
It is extremely important and exotically rare to acknowledge this culturally-rich, still-standing impressive feat upfront.
Since October 2011, the creation of Empower Network's immaculate inception, the intuitive idea behind the birth of building an “online blogging business opportunity” was born with a bold and beautiful concept…EMPOWER OTHERS – to build a thriving, transforming community from the ground up, inside and out.
The primary perspective given about Empower in it's early days was 1) Blog Daily 2) Tell Others 3) Get Money
The message has been massaged over the years, now with the logo and motto being “How To Build a Business while Having a Life”.
Ok, now that I gave all the high-horse, show-class jargon specs laid out – let's get into the raw fruits and veggies, pure nuts and bolts of “what is empower network” and give you a 30,000 foot view of what it means to be apart of a growing, sustaining, evolving network of empowered entrepreneurs and like-minded business-savvy individuals.
At MakeMoneyExpert.com, we are committed to sharing the most profitable business ideas and catalysts for change anyone can find, do, or have online.
A lot of sense in one sentence I know ^^^…I guess a global betterment tug of the heart if you will.
No matter if your a complete newb or grade-a vet – this information was meant for you to read in a prime and proper, precisely-paved out path for you to perceive with your own personhood. Being your own boss means calling your own shots.
Outright, one uniquely-special attribute that has stood out about Empower's success more than anything are their electric events – call me crazy, but this is the glory I mentioned earlier, and it's the glue that has held a company of this nature together over all the trial-n-error, ups-and-downs.
Referring to compensation, it is also one of the single biggest contributing factors to creating more top income earners in a short period of time than any other company before in the industry of network marketing…I guess the motto take away is “go paperless” (oh the irony).
Easily one of the most profitable and fastest growing Network Marketing/MLMs in the online business space today due to these passion-driven products and packages.
The company has become a true game changer since its legendary launch. Fast forward to 2014, Empower Network is growing up and maturing into one of the leading-edge pioneers for an entire Internet Income Age movement and adaption.
Some call it luck. I call it awareness.
There are 6 Expert Factors for judging to join any business or opportunity.
1) Company Management – where is the head of the snake going?
2) Timing – In a Window of Opportunity, Timing is Everything!
3) Trends – Where are people going and get there first!
4) Products – A company needs products that can stand on its own 2 feet
5) Compensation – where the money at though?? (common denominator)
6) System – literally save yourself time, energy, money
Anytime you need to make a decision about a service, product, or opportunity – ask these pivotal and perennial questions and seek legitimate answers. That's what we did with Empower and that's why we are still here nearly 3 years to-date.
Empower Network Compensation Plan Earnings*
*We are not typical, neither are our results using the viral blogging system and product suite training guides.
But that is also to say, do not take these pictorials with a grain of salt. No we will not take it as an insult, but we are trying to show you the insulation of this digital brick-and-mortar home of a business – it is not going anywhere, and neither are we.
We are allowed to call up to 7 timeouts in a regulation basketball game. We can use one of those now.
Now, despite major success, growth, and spirit; Empower Network may not be for you…
When choosing the right business venture to embark upon for you – it is critical to align with the right information and surround yourself with the right people.
Finding a place and personality where you feel like fitting into will make the journey all that more much enjoyable. Being comfortable about the message, vision and mission of a company and yours is vital to your action, results and progress in which the fashion you choose to present the business in.
We get asked lots of question about this business deal:
Is it really 100% commissions?
Is this some kind of pyramid scheme?
How can I make the most out of this business?
Do the products really work?
And more.
We will loop back to these later on in our Expert Review – for now our best bet is to break down and give you all the facts so you can make an educated decision and find out if this is a right fit for you.
Empower Network Background Story
One phrase comes to mind..”start from the bottom now we here”.. The company was founded by David wood and David Sharpe back in Oct, 2011, since it's starting point it has attracted more than 180,000 paying members and has paid over 80 million in commissions to affiliates in a little less than 3 years to the date…yeah, time to put the kids to bed.
David Wood (who is also a marketer at heart prior to fueling the now highly-flammable fire making him sole CEO), in all of his internet splendor and online mentorship, asked one single question —
How can we build the richest, most powerful network of entrepreneurs in the world?
And because this question was truly analyzed and studied in-depth, the company was able to patch and fix common problems and loopholes marketers were facing when trying to successfully promote a business and make sales and earn money. The results were astounding from the start, creating a rich and empowered team of top income earners in a very short period of time by industry standards.
Essentially one of their core products is a hosted blogging platform for you to blog, write, and pot on, similar to hubpages or wordpress but more.
The founders knew that one of the first steps to starting an online business is having a website where future prospects could find information about you and the products you offer, which is why a fully functional blog is one of their main products.
The Empower Network Preference & Difference:
Empower Network is essentially a program divided into multiple memberships that provides tools and teaches members how to successfully market their products and services online.
While you can use the information taught in the training promote and market any product, one of the most profitable ways to make money with this business is by becoming an affiliate, since you can get 100% commissions of membership sales.
There are some pros and cons to this:
Pros: the products are reliable and the information on the memberships have helped thousands of affiliates to become successful making money online.
Cons: There are a lot of affiliates already promoting and selling empower network, with that said if you learn how to market properly you can attract buyers who will be interested in what you specifically have to offer.
Empower Network Earning Potential
Unlike many other MLM’s with high overhead cost on their products, Empower Network offers digital products In the form of memberships, that can teach even the rawest newbie how to market.
Since they offer digital product this gives the company the ability to pay 100% commissions to affiliates.
You can watch a little video on how their compensation plan works right here, this will explain why people can potentially make so much in a 100% commissions business model.
The truth is anyone can succeed with this compensation plan.
Most won't. Not because Empower Network is a scam or because it doesn’t work, but because most people are not willing to do what it takes. But again, anyone can succeed.
You can succeed even if you don’t have a list of buyers interested in this kind of products.
…even if you don’t have a big team to bring over
…even if you didn’t get in the beginning
…even if you have never made money online or with an MLM business model.
