I have never tried the program before but I have made some cash from it it converts very well running as an ad on a few of my sites.
One of the few programs that I sell that I haven't actually tried but it was listed high for referrals in clickbank so I went with it.
Be good to find out if it works effectively for people I hate selling duds.

Hi
I have applied about 1 week ago for the Mark Warren's Ultimate wealth management programme. Like everybody else I have followed the step by step plan to start earning money & paid the relevant fees to start a proper business at home. It got very complicated, so I gave up on it for 48 hours. Approx 1 week later I have received a phone call from the IT Coach (they call themselves the Success Team) about starting up my online business following Mark warren's principles if I was ready to commit $5446.00 on a credit card & a coach will guide me for 14 weeks about what products to promote, marketing strategies, website, merchant account, etc. as well as a sort of guarantee for me to recoop the money I have invested within 3 months. They sounded very professional & very convincing. The only worrying thing was that they ask you to pay this money straight away by phone (ask for the long number, expiry date & security code as well) without e-mailing you first a proper contract or some sort of paperwork for you to check. So you give this amount of money on the say so that they have been coaching people for more than 10 years & they will not let you down.
I would like to know if anyone arrives to this stage of the scheme & did have the 14 weeks coaching & whether you manage to get the sort of income the website advertised from it.
I chickened out at this stage as it is a lot of money to lose but I am wondering if I made a mistake & I should have gone with it. Am I losing a bit opportunity of earning money or not.
I would welcome advices.

I am new to UWP and so far I have found that it takes quite a bit of work just to get set up, but I am willing to give it a try. There is definitely more money involved than first meets the eye. But I think it really involves being persistent and dedicated, which of course is any thing in life that you attempt to become successful. Forums such as this I believe are the very best place to visit to gain education on many of the topics.

Hi Sev
I would strongly advise that you go back and read all the previous posts on this site and I think by the time you have finished doing that, you will have your answer.
From what I understand, you are actually not really selling a "product" as such - basically you are just promoting their website (UWP) who in turn simply ask people to part with their money, who they then teach to market THEIR website and so the cycle continues.. No product is actually being exchanged and in Australia (where I live) that kind of business is actually illegal.
Hope this was helpful

Thank You People! You have just saved my bacon and my money! I actually have a draft email typed up to send to UWP and thought I'd do one last google search - finding this. I got caught up in a similar web package with midphase a couple of weeks ago - I have no idea how I got it but it was the pro version. Luckily I was able to get out of that one though it did cost me. For a really good program, check out the forum on Profit Lance. It does take work but you learn how to do things instead of being thrown in at the deep end with a website you don't know how to promote. And they answer emails within a day and don't ask for more money once you've signed up.

I'm an Aussie too and was directed to UWP by another Aussie lady! How disappointing to find out that she could be scamming me too! SURELY there are some genuine online businesses out there that a stay-at-home woman can make some money from! I'd like to hear from fellow Aussies who have managed to earn an income from an internet business.

I to have made the error of signing with the ultimate wealth package. I did not research this scam until the owner Mark Warren called me after I asked for mentor help. Once he found out I had no credit cards to work with as he called it OPM(Other Pepples money) he said he would not be interested in helping me. This was never discussed during the sign up process that you might need 3000 to 6000 to fund some form of training. I just asked click bak for all the refunds since I sign up for the entire system including the pro package. You know its funny that I came to this forum from a video on there site that teaches to use forums to get you site listed on google right away.
Live and Learn I guess.

I'm just glad I was able to get a refund on my UWP package. Just like anything, it works for some but it's not for everyone.
In addition, I have been consistently bombarded with emails from UWP asking me to try this new product. Also, the support team contacted me numerous times but I wasn't about to fall for it all over again.
My recommendation: Be Careful because chances are, you will spend way more than the $50 for the package...I know I did...but luckily for me, I was able to recoup most of it back.

Honestly, your best bet is to stay away from both the UWP and its coaching - just take a look at this thread - there are plenty of people who thought the program was terrible, and asked for refunds.
Most "pre-paid" coaching out there is a rip off - I've heard of people investing $3,000 - $4,000 in coaching and not earning ANYTHING in return.
If you are looking for quality coaching, check out Wealthy Affiliate - you won't be ripped off, and its really a lot more than just coaching.

Beating Adwords is an excellent ebook aimed at mastering the google adwords. Another book named by Perry Marshall is also a recommended book for Google AdWords campaign.

Hi- I'm using the program. I'm a "newbie" and find the information soooo helpful! I signed up for the Pro Plan as I do not have my own web-site yet. I'm using the web-site as a learning tool - applying what I learn to the site and watching what happens! The actual package is the information that Mark Warren supplies. I like it because it'w written so that most anyone can understand. The free web-site is a bonus--view it as a learning tool--really nice for people just starting out. If you really want to learn and take advantage of the web-site as a tool to learn, get the Pro package. There are other expenses involved but they aren't too bad. I've learned a lot from the package. Also---after I signed up I got the phone call from a company that said the Mark Warren had told them to call me and tried to sell me a package where they would do the "whole thing" for me. My cost was to be something in the 2900.00 area. I haven't check it out, but I would be surprised if they were associated with Mark Warren--I told them that I'd call them the next day--I didn't call and they didn't call me back either. Watch out - probably scammers! The phone number that they called from showed up as Las Agelas, CA (probably not spelled right--where's the spell check!) Debbie Copeland [Link removed - Admin]

Hi there
I am currently using Ultimate Wealth Package and I think with any venture you have to put some backbone into it..At least dedicate 4-5 hours of PC and other time to it especially the marketing aspect...I had no problems with the setup of my website and got lots of free info on how to manage and run the site..I didnt like the fact of the hidden costs..so everything may cost around $200 (site, pro package and getting visitors to your website..)
I have had it for a week and a half and made $25.25 but that is without me doing no sort of marketing..again committment people/!!

Hi- I am sooo new at e-commerce, internet marketing, etc. I purchased the Utlimate Wealth System and so far it has been helpful! When purchasing the package, try to use this mind-set, this is how I see it: The actual web-site is a "plus", I'm using it as a learing tool to go along with all of the information offered with the package. I know there is a lot of other information out there but if you are brand new, the information that comes with Ultimate Wealth Package is invaluable! There are other costs that come with the web-site if you purchase the Pro Plan but they aren't extreme. If you really want to learn, the cost of the package and the extra's really aren't that much. I purchased the Pro Plan and have found that all of the information that comes along with it has really given me wonderful insight and ideas. In summary, If you are a beginner-purchase the Pro Package, use the web-site as a learning tool to go along wth the wealth of information that comes along with the package, as you learn the marketing techniques, apply them to your web-site and watch what happens. This is not a get rich quick product--. It requires studying and learning (and headaches!)!

I have used the Ultimate Wealth Package along with a few others. I have found that anything that will teach you about Internet Marketing is something you will HAVE to work for. It will definetly not just come on it's own.
Someone said there is an extra $200 worth of fees around the corner, this is a new thing to me! The Ultimate Wealth Package presents ways to pay for traffic, but most of them are FREE ways to get traffic (ex: articles, blogs..etc.)
But, Internet Marketing ebooks can definetly make you money if you find a good guide to take you there and have motivation to work.

Hello, I'm new to the forum but I can see that you folks are going to be a great resource.
I too purchased the UWP this week, but I don't think it was a waste of money for a few reasons.
1) The library of ebooks that is provided does contain enough real info to be worth the price in and of itself.
2) Even the free website has some value to a newbie if they dissect it.
3) The value of the experience and design of the site itself is well worth the money. If you want to learn how one package can be used to market a ton of different products in a manner that makes them easy sells.
4) The value of "free" ebooks loaded with additional upsell links to products that can provide additional revenue in the future, is again worth the price of the package.
So, that said, I feel the package was worth it just to see how a pro marketer does it, and does it well.
Do I expect to make a ton of money from the UWP program? No. Do I expect to make some money using the principals I pulled from it. YES.
I do realize I'm just one drop of positive in a sea of negatives, but if nothing else hopefully I can help a few other "suckers" feel a little better about their purchase.

Ultimate Wealth Package is basically a book with a website that advertises Marks product on. It is possible to succeed with it, but if you are a complete beginner, I would stay away. Wealthy Affiliate is much better for a beginner as you get full on coaching from the millionaire owners, it isn't something your just left at where no-one cares if u succeed.

Don't sign up! It is easy to see that some of the people in this forum are actually working for UWM. Such obvious give-away lines. I have not signed up for the simple reason I know that there is no way of making $100s a week at a cost of $39, otherwise the people claiming that it only takes 20 minutes a day would spend 14 hours a day.
Ath the end of the day your job involves "advertising" your site. How do they want you to do that with no HTML skills? Answer: They are expecting you to visit and sign up for hundreds of forums and stick links all over the place promoting the website.
This won't work as most forums ban web addresses, and remove posts which appear to contain them. Also your account will be quickly removed if you are seen as an advertiser promoting an advertising site. You know how long it takes to sign up for a new account. Its hard work. Most sites will ban you for advertising and just ignore you if you try to sign up for the second time.
If you persist, your IP addrsss will be blacklisted and you will never be able to post again. The chances of anyone making money with 20 minutes work a day are close to nil.
Get a proper job! I pay $20 an hour for someone to cut my grass and I still have trouble finding anyone. There is no free lunch. Work hard = get rich. Try to make money online= Sucker,

Very well observed A smart eye can easily identify such fake posts. Don't base your judgment on reading just few posts. Go through all of them, contemplate and then you'll get the whole picture.
