Hey fellas,

I was thinking and I just couldnt think a reason not to open a "Success Stories" forum here in bhw.

Reading success stories and how someone changed their lives with IM are some ways to really inspire newbies and people who think reaching success is impossible!

I suggest we open a subforum exclusively for success stories where only veteran members (to avoid scams) can share their success stories on IM and how it changed their lives!

1) I believe the stories will inspire the newbies or people that are ready to give up.
2) Veterans will get inspired by extremely successful stories to keep growing their income!

I really dont see any reason not to do this but I would like to know what you guys think!
 
great suggestion roy, would like to read yours
 
I love to read real success stories and have enjoyed a few from some members that posted their stories in the Journey Section and elsewhere.
The only problem I see is that how do you verify somebodies account unless you know they are running a real business and have had some form of success, even many Veteran members may be broke and may be inclined to embellish the truth.
Anyway, I am not against the idea, as long as it doesn't end up like TheMoneyWizard imagines.
 
+1 for Roy's suggestion :). I always come back to BHW because of the journey posts that BHW members share. I read Roy's journey inside out :D. It was really inspiring!!
 
It will also give birth to new CEOsam every day.
 
Of course there will always going to be problems ;)

Perhaps the OPs should get verified by mods by showing their earnings to get their threads approved.

These threads could be different as they are only to share with bhw's members.

I know some won't open a thread as they might want to stay in the dark but i believe this section would be there as motivation to keep going.

I wouldn't mind being a mod of this section at all. ;)

I want to know what mods/admins think.
 
Also another rule could be that if any thread converts into a sales thread, the thread is banned as well as a temp-ban for the OP.

I think the verification process + the no sales thread rule would be enough to get this going.

I wouldn't mind being a mod in this section if mods allow it.
 
So what do mods/admins think about this?
 
Its an interesting and nice idea but I'm curious how do you plan to verify the earnings? I for one wouldn't be comfortable showing the exact campaigns im promoting and would definitely never give access to my accounts so that leaves us with screenshots which as we all know can be easily faked.Also what about the success stories of people who are not affilites/cpa marketers take someone who deals with local seo for example should he be sending you his bank statements to verify those?

Also what worries me a bit is that this can lead to alot of scams. I'v posted a success story in the lounge some time ago and I got flooded with PMs and Skype requests asking for help and even coaching so imagine what would happen if some of the WF "gurus" decide to move here and post their success stories just to lure people in to their mentoring programs via PMs and Skype.


Dont get me wrong I think your idea is great I'm just playing devils advocate here.

+1 to the idea if Mods can filter out the fake ones. Why don't you add a poll to this thread?
 
Also another rule could be that if any thread converts into a sales thread, the thread is banned as well as a temp-ban for the OP.

That's the thing, the one who posts the "success story" will get PMs and Skype IMs even if he does not try to sell something.

After that, all contact will be via Skype, and not BHW. And BHW cannot control Skype last time I checked.

So having a "Success Stories" forum, will only be a new way for scammers to find victims, and BHW won't be able to do anything.
 
Then instead of a temp-ban, we could think of a permaban.

But still, that's a good point.

I wonder what mods/admins think about this
