When A Scam Is Not A Scam

When it comes to marketing in today's world, a lot has changed. Everyone has a program that will make you rich, or at least they claim it will. Recently I came across a review on BBBreviews.org whose basic topic was EDC Gold. I found it informative and an honest opinion of the writer.

But when you start looking into things a little deeper, and actually do your homework - you might learn a few things. Here's what I have noticed over the past 5 months on the internet:

To begin with there are thousands calling EDC Gold a scam. You buy software for $297 or $997 and refer others to come in to the program under you. Basically it is a multi-level marketing plan just like any other affiliate program out there. The only difference is they have a higher price tag. One thing that intrigues me though is that many say you aren't really purchasing a product, that you are just buying into the program. I actually have found proof and need to disagree with this statement.

I have been offered to join EDC Gold quite a few times. The only reason I haven't yet is the amount of time my other projects take up. I probably will end up joining it soon though. The main reason why I would join is due to the actual products. The software and ebooks included all come with resale rights and they include many titles.

This isn't the first time that I have seen bundled software. I have seen plenty of other ebook packages available all over online at a much lower costs, but have also heard the complaints that the ebooks you receive are just geared towards selling you other products. Many are also out dated on the cheaper packages to where the links within many of the ebooks don't even work. So who is scamming who?

Here's where I can blow a huge hole in EDC Gold being a scam. I have met four different individuals online that have joined EDC Gold, and EDC Gold is not their only source of income. These four people have repackaged and regrouped the software and actually resell it online at lower prices. One has an ebay auction and has profited over $6,700 just through her auctions.

So let me ask you this. Have you ever bought a product, and then also became an affiliate of that product? We all have, and that is all the EDC Gold program is. How can something be a scam if it allows you the opportunity to make outside of their program?

Listen, there are basically two different types of marketing online. You have your MLM type marketing and your product marketing. Some consider them the same thing but they are not. If you want to sell products online, great - or if you like MLM, that is fine too. The nice thing about EDC Gold is they have actually combined the two. If you are unsuccessful with their program, you still have the resale rights to thousands of products that you can resell online and make a good profit with.

I know one guy that bundled up all the ebay items and tools included with the EDC Gold package and he sells them right online at ebay. Here's the best part, he keeps 100% of the profits. In my opinion, the EDC Gold program itself beats many of the other programs out there that promise you a great income. I see all these other programs out there stating to make you millions online that sell for $30 to $50. And if you really think you will become rich online by getting one of these cheap programs, you need your head examined.

The bottom line is this - To make a substantial income online you need to do consistent and effective marketing period. There is no magic formula that will start making you thousands or millions by just downloading a program. Half of these cheaper programs have no support or personal guidance. That is where I have to give EDC Gold credit. Their training and marketing strategies are shared equally to everyone, nobody is at a disadvantage. I found this landing page for EDC Gold and it blew me away. Take a look at it yourself, this EDC Gold member gives out all of his personal contact information before you even view anything about the program. It is located at http://www.truesuccessleaders.com - I have to admit, that's impressive.

EDC Gold seems to deliver what they promise, whether you want to work their program or resell their products. If you do your marketing for either, you will make money. In fact more money is being made online right now by EDC Gold members than any other program out on the market, and many are riding their success. Now I see thousands of google adwords titles with EDC Gold scam reviews. But wouldn't you know it, when you get there they call it a scam and then pitch you their product or another product they are affiliated with. So who's really doing the marketing scams?
