[advice] Is Alex Goad Legit?

goodlessons · #1 (**permalink**) 12-07-2009, 04:12 PM

Hey Fellow BHWers,

I've been on Alex Goad's mailing list for a while, but have not tried any of his products due to the extremely high cost and just not really knowing much about him.

Have any of you used his products? He is currently promoting his product called "Commission Payload".

What do you think of him and his stuff?

Thanks in advance everyone!

I'm on his mailing list as well. I personally don't buy anything from these so-called 'gurus'. I just subscribe to hear/read what they have to say... lol, I suppose to keep uptodate with what's going on.

Depends on your level of experience I guess. If you think by spending the money you'll be motivated to actually use/implement any guru software/system then go ahead, make that investment.

Not sure if I answered your question, but yea... that's my 2 cents.

Thank you, looks like we're pretty much in the same boat. lol

True, but I thought others might also want to know about him too.

Like most "Gurus" he's always seemed full of hot air. I've personally never seen anything to show me that he's anything but you typical bullshit master.

Maybe that's why not many people are commenting about him.

I've read a few of his books. He is legit and provides alot of information with his methods but he doesn't really break it down step by step so you have to put your own creative twist on his methods. Also becareful some of his ebooks are older and the methods don't work anymore. He definately knows what hes talking about. If you want to see some of his methods i suggest downloading some of his ebooks on torrents.

He co wrote/contributed to Chris (affiliate project x) for black mask.

At the time black mask was ok, gave some good basic info.

100% agree he's expensive, based on that, I usually don't buy his stuff. On the flip, I did (with a friend) get a couple of his products sometime back. They were good and (at the time) had new info I'd not seen elsewhere.

I used to hang with Dean Hunt (the killer rabbit guy) and Dean spoke highly of him.

I can't specifically recommend commission payload since I've not personally seen it.

I bought one of his products GooglePayload and I was not happy with it... He admitted few months later that the Payload method doesn't work anymore.. so Iopted out of his mailing list....

He also collaborated with Chris X for ProjectBlackMask which was a surefire was of getting your adsense account banned ..

So IMO he is making money but he is not sharing his actual methods

Just my 0.02

I know Alex well. I think he is an excellent presenter and a very convincing "fella".

He also has great contacts and some of the best copywriters around.

Is his stuff any good? Hmm?

I don't think he's had many "original ideas", in my view he just puts a great "spin" on somebody else's and present it in a way that you can't say no to him :-)

His stuff is alot of marketing fluff. Wasn't happy with the one item I bought and his affiliate's got my email address stuck on his lists.

My experience was not too good, either. I bought a course a couple of years ago that involved probably his first subscription product, and it meant he had to come up with new content every month. He failed to do that and I cancelled. I think he has problems staying focused, and there is always some new thing to promote that is more lucrative. You should be very leery of the gurus.
