If you have a look at most sites that mention GDI (as well as most of the posts within this thread) their one motivating factor is getting you to sign up beneath them. When you realise this you realise that it is all just hype.

The only way to make true money at it is to ignore the product which is truly shit (the hosting) and concentrate on building the downline. Most marketers are aware of GDI and you are unlikely to find anyone remotely decent who is interested in joining your downline.

Ignore the hype, it's all smoke and mirrors

I agree 100% with you. I also think that this thread is turning into a shitty gdi pitch which is annoying. 10 people all claiming there making a killing wanting you to signup under them(which i believe is against the rules). This reminds me of a "team" meeting minus the cult feel.

lol, well i doubt they are all making a killing, because there is a leader board and if they aint on the leader board they aint doing sh*t.

But I love GDI, and it is a great program. Very versatile and can be integrated into almost anything. Either way I agree, this thread is pretty lame.

Let's use that fantastic judgement variable : How many threads on DP mention the subject.

Over 200 threads. The defence rests

Are you the real slim shady? What up Brian hows things going. Add me s a friend and I will let you know who I am.lol

I gave this a shot, put a few vids on Youtube, boosted them up to a few thousand views and that's it. Haven't done anything for about 2 months with it and still get 15-20 signups a month. Plus factor in all the people my signups have gotten to sign up. I'm up over 200 total in my downline. Not a ton, but it costs me $10 a month and I get $1 for everyone in my downline every month. Just that alone and I'm making nearly $200 a month doing nothing at this point besides the vids on YT I threw up a few months ago. I've had a few weeks where I got $100 bonuses for signing up 5 people in one week too.
Say what ya want about GDI, but that's some of the easiest cash I've made. MLM isn't for everyone, if you think you are going to be making thousands a month, there aren't many that are, but if you can handle a few hundred, I think that is reasonable for anyone.
Good luck either way.

Yea, it's me. I think I know who you are anyway. I'll add you

It's a pyramid scheme.

GDI is crap...bullshitting hundreds of people with small profits

How and when they paid someone who know the deal.
Thanks

GDI is paying every month around the 15th of the month, according to your selected payment method and the minimum payout.

I got paid by GDI many times already. You might check some of the checks that I received from them at my page at the payment proof section.

Recently I have switched to paypal payment.

Nobody knows what a pyramid scheme is? LOL

Tissa is outsourcing all of these new accounts posting their "success" stories.

I know tissa personally. he lives 2 hrs away from me

I get paid every month with GDI, not 1000's but some hundred bucks every month. So to say it's not bad. I have also registered some good .ws Domain names with Godaddy and they are ranking well in Google. The spin with GDI is that it is a product for Noobs, and noobs don't now any how to. So you have to train them, how to build their sites, how to promote, SEO Stuff and so on. Thats time consuming for you and your affiliates, so they only promote their affiliate links. That way GDI doesnt work. But its a great way (and GDI was my eye opener to internet marketing) to get into it ( whitehat), but for every noob it takes time.

As your GDI downline members are your biggest asset, because they are the one generating income for you, it is in your best interest to train and teach them how to achieve success.

It is indeed a little bit time consuming but it worth, because you will directly profit from their success. You can easily stay in touch with your downline and send them different materials and training materials with an autoresponder.

GDI is without any doubts among the best ways to make money online; in the same time you can do whatever you want with your .ws domain... for example list all your money making opportunities on the site...

I think all MLM are border line pyramid schemes.. their gimmic is they have a product!

I know you do but you are my sponsor and have yet to get a call back or email back from you. I have been selling for years and work MLM with several programs . It's funny how you can post everywhere and send me webinar info every other day but have yet to call me or answer an email since i first signed up . It isn't that I can't sell GOOGLE ME (RICK DANIEL or Corvette King). I have been in your direct downline for over 2 months and have called you (rushed off the phone like some peon) and emailed you on many occassions with NO REPLY WHATSOEVER . The funny thing is I live right by you. I live in Westland after I selling my home in Taylor where you live (5 minutes up Middlebelt) if you map it. No I see you on this forum pushing it . I know all MLM aren't a sham but I sell cars and if I don't get paid I have an issue and I seems to me after 2 months of crap with GDI I have a right to speak on it . All the "do you know brian bear" groupies 'Don't" live right by you . I don't knock anyone's hustle as long as it doesn't affect me . Yes, it's only $20 lunch basically, but it's the principle. DON'T PROMISE PEOPLE SHIT YOU DON'T DO ,but it's kool. I work my deals everyday like you so I understand the hustle . The only problem . what is so unfortunate is I have tons of people who "would' signup ,but I believe you'll never truly be successful until you truly appreciate your downline and handle situations when they arise . I really don't need the program ,I only ordered it because I can recognize a good payplan when I see it. I have enough ventures going . Don't get mad at me fellow GDI'ers I don't have a problem with you or the system . Just the bullshit ass upline and support . You will get a ton of welcome emails then nothing . Too bad ,could have made some good money but as a Moderator myself I would rather seek another program or upline than deal with a person who is out for self . Most of the money I have made in my life and it has been alot is due to helping people . THANKS BRIAN for nothing.

You see, that is exactly why I don't like and I don't trust these big GDI marketers... because miss the details and the "small parts" of the business.

The big GDI marketers are mainly concerned about making to the GDI leaderboard and to cash in those big bonuses. I am talking about Brian, Tissa or David Parnell. I guess it is unlikely to receive personal emails from them, because they are too busy with their own programs that offers them other streams of income beside the GDI commissions.

They just don't have the time or the desire to keep in touch with their downline. As a GDI member and a GDI leader I know that it is time consuming writing emails to your downline... but it does worth to contact them now and them. They are generating income for you, so it is fair to treat them with respect. It is a win-win situation.

I was not and do not intend to be on the GDI leaderboard, because I am working with a different approach. I am helping instead my downline members to get referral under them. It is called Profit Sharing Marketing. It is a method that is better and healthier on long term. If your referrals are successful = you are successful too. If they fail = you fail! It is simple as that!

Nice!

Personally, I can't wait to get some sign ups simply by using bum marketing techniques and re-writing quality content.

I guess, if your lazy likeme, joining under one of those BS "teams" is a must... giving you bonus referrals (FREE Cash?) and spamming your downlines emails with free ebook training. Probably keeps 70% of your affiliates in the program per month unlike signing up under a no-name affiliate link.
Don't know why so many people automatically assume that you have to train your affiliates. Waste of time if your IM part time.

It seems something perfectly normal to train your downline members, as they are the ones generating income for you. You want to share with them all the techniques and marketing tools that worked for you.

If your downline members do not want to be trained and helped they will let you know, I am sure of that.

Your earning from GDI are comming from the last people just joined (your downlines)
So GDI gives you a 10% of others under you monthly each one of your downline until 5 deep it means 60% for downlines and GDI earns the 40% and Go on...

Wow, you resurrected a dead thread. Anyway I'm in GDI and make several hundred a month. At this point I'm not even promoting it at all, but my downline is since they're still getting signups. However I think GVO (see my signature) is better than GDI is. Since it's compensation matrix is forced. You get spillover from your sponsors too not just your downline. Cheers

I signed up GDI in 2007 and cancelled the accounts after 2 months. I still have those emails in my Gmail account.

Five years later, I am now reconsidering this program. I will have to say, to me it is a Pyramid scheme but it is one of the strongest still.

I believe eMLM or not, the start is same with any other affiliate program in the market. i.e. Clickbank. If one cannot sell in this simple well structure system, don't even think about become an affiliate in clickbank, instead just create a 'product' and let other people sell for you.

Five years, I'm full of scars and I believe I have at least some know-how to get this system works now. GDI is dirty like other MLM, not much real value to the world and your life but there's no harm to have some passive income streams. (Which 1% does not have dirty little secret?)

I once think that it is overcrowd (in 2007) but the fact I saw, most people earned money and get lazy and stop promoting. A lot of interest posts, websites about GDI stopped in 2009. In short, there's always room for new people to success and those succeeded most probably went for bigger opportunity. Btw, I just found out the Singapore super affiliate guru Ewen Chia is in GDI as well. In the potential leader board few times too in 2009.

If master like Ewen Chia was once active in GDI, I believe I still can make some money in GDI.

Reactivated my old GDI account. Wish me luck then

I don't know about GDI, but don't be persuaded when people say stay away from MLM period. MLM just has a bad rap. I am in several MLM companies and they do just fine for me.

Honestly dont waste your time with GDI, if your into network marketing ill show you more
powerful ways to make money in network marketing, GDI offers a high attrition rate with
really LOW ROI. These days GDI is mainly for super affiliates who like to filter leads into
backend systems.

I still have a GDI account with some affiliates in it, but I only use GDI for the traffic to
my website and leads. I dont promote GDI to make money. LOL. We have some huge
launches coming up with huge ROI, I work with the owners of a couple powerful programs
Hit me up and ill keep you posted when we launch. Specifically two programs.

I am still in GDI and I am not going to quit. I am making some money with it and that is enough for me.

What I like the most about it, is that the income is residual income. I am paid month after month for the same work I did in the past. And that is extremely reassuring for me!
