I'm Tired Of Seeing This About WA

I'm Tired Of Seeing This About WA

Well, I was supposed to write and explain the challenge I am preparing for 2020, but I have to admit that something took my focus today and made me mad.
While I was doing some research, I found (randomly) a few websites that they wrote a review about WA...
Without having anything else to do for today, I decided (for some reason) to check some reviews. Obviously, the posts were written from members of WA or to be precise former members of WA.
I was curious to find out why they didn't like WA. I don't know; maybe it was something that will give me some value, or maybe it was some shady things that WA does, and no one talks about.
After I read the review(s), I simply decided that what they said was st***d, let me explain.
The first reason that the reviews mentioned it's that the "training" is outdated. At first, I was like ok, but is this the truth? NO! Why? Well, first of all, most of the (first) lessons are to guide you and help you create your website. They explain what everything does, which is something simple and doesn't need an update.
I almost forgot to mention the "outdated" (joke) webinars that we have every week.
Maybe if WordPress completely change everything, then yes they will have to update it, but for now, I don't think that the training needs an update (I'm still completing the training, so yeah I see it myself and never had any issue or felt like they need to update)
Oh!!! Did you know about that? Even if you find something that might need an update, well, they probably never saw this button here. (I will let you wonder how and why they didn't find it)
Well, maybe I'm wrong, but I think I covered the first reason.
The second reason was that everyone creates a website were they just promote WA. Most people here don't have an MMO website (make money online). They have websites for any niche you can think of. Don't believe me? That's fine. I follow many people here that have websites in a niche that might be cat/dog/pets niche, amazon niche sites in general. I won't write every single niche...
Let me tell you this. WA gives you the tools to do something about yourself, like creating a business and sustain/scale or whatever you want your business to do.
The way you use those tools is your fault, not WA's. For example, I can't blame WA if I wrote a review about a platform and didn't rank in the #1 on Google. It's mine! Why? There are so many reasons that you can completely fail, but after I did the things WA told me, I ranked #1 on Google on many posts. Just check this post to see my increase in one month.
One more thing I want to mention here is that most people are impatient and want overnight success, while people that had overnight success actually worked for many years before they succeed.
Nothing more to say here!
The last reason was the price of WA. (When I read that I laughed). What they did here is so smart that I also want to congratulate them on their marketing skills.
Instead of saying something like "$359/year are too much and blah blah blah" they said that
"Do you really believe that you can succeed with $50/month or $359/year and actually create a 6 figure business?"
I mean, LOL. I will let the facts talk by themselves at this point.


You probably know that these pictures are from Jerry.

As you will understand, this picture is from littlemama and I can show you more. To be honest, I can search and add pictures here for hours. LITERALLY!
As a non-successful member (yet) of WA, I'll tell you this. Before you write a post as a "former member" at least do your research well.
I dare you to find me another platform that you will pay $359/year and will have 24/7 support, domains with .com that they will cost you only $13.99-15.99, they will literally give you a step by step training that's worth watching (and it's not outdated), a community that will help you even with private messages without expecting anything in return, weekly FREE webinars that won't cost you anything, live chat, and so many other things at that price. I dare you to find one.
I want to add something that it's not actually a complaint about WA but more like an opinion.
They said something like this:
"You don't need WA to win, and only Kyle & Carson win by taking your money."
Let me answer that also; I'll gladly give my money to Kyle & Carson for this platform. I'm realistic right now. Of course, you don't need WA to succeed that's the truth (I'm sorry), but you have to admit that for beginners and even experts (in fact WA made a lot of beginners to experts) it's a vital tool and a legit way to begin they online career.
There are so many successful people, and they never used WA, that doesn't make WA bad.
Finally, I want to tell you this.
It's up to you what you want to do. Do you want to stay? Fine, If you are serious, work hard, and have patient, you will succeed that I guarantee you!
On the other side, if you feel that WA is not for you, I wish you the best, and I hope that you will achieve your goals.
Just one favor, don't go and write online, "WA did this" and don't mention, "But WA also taught me this." Be honest; it's the best thing you can do in this world!
Thank you!
P.S. I'm not saying that WA is the perfect platform. In fact, I don't (personally) believe that the word "perfect" is something that exists in this world.

Work hard, be patient, and success will knock your door!
