Empower Network: A Not So Favorable Review

Couldn't believe this review when I was done!
OK, I'll admit it...I was one of those who previously gave money to Empower Network (EN). Fortunately, after about 5 months, I called it quits and unsubscribed, canceling my recurring payment as well. However, it was my introduction to blogging and websites so the time wasn't all wasted.
Lesson Four of the Phase Two Boot Camp training required another review to post on our site. I knew that at some point I would review EN so I decided to do it now...and was I surprised!

• I suspected that I would score it 5, maybe 6, out of 10 but it actually came out as a 3.
• I did an extensive review of their promotions so I could see what they were using to draw people in.
• As I delved deeper, I was surprised, and shocked, with the degree of arrogance they had moved to since I left.
• And the total cost, if you purchase all their products: just over $5100.00

I think what really hit home was their comments about how new members are going to make money every day, every hour, every minute...all on auto pilot! Granted, I know they would disagree with that simplistic summary but...I'm quoting them. Go figure.
As I was writing my review I couldn't help but compare EN with WA (our lives are acronyms):

• At WA new members are trained and supported at no extra cost...which isn't bad considering that you can start for free :)
• WA teaches you to learn before you earn...kind of like "school leads to a job"
• WA promotes building a quality business. Offering what your customers want, thinking about them...content.
• WA does not allow spamming nor is it a "get-rich-quick" scheme

All I can say is that I'm glad I'm here at WA...where I'm not called a "wussie".
