Does MATTHEW GRAVES owe you money? If so, you're not alone!

 

Once a respected online marketing "guru", Matthew has turned to the dark side in the last couple of years, and now owes large amounts of money to large numbers of people.

 

His "Site Partners" scheme (or should I say scam?) appears to be a dead duck - I haven't managed to find a single partner who has received their earnings from the sites on which they were supposed to be partners, and the Facebook group for partners has had all members & posts removed - probably because all the posts were from people wondering when (if?) they would receive their earnings.

 

Matthew doesn't have a proper support ticket system - a "red flag" in itself - and doesn't reply to emails from people asking for the money they're owed.

 

Ironically, his mailers are well designed & have a good number of responsive members, so they are still worth joining - just don't bother paying for an upgrade, this man doesn't deserve any more of other people's money.

I saw a poll about this and it didnt look good, not sure where it was. And another post about this in this forum.

 

What is weird is that every list site is the same script on every site it looks like?

He should have left his orginial sites alone and not clone each one from 1 thing.

The orginial sites was what the internet marketing world used to consist of, well most of it, before cloning became some sort of fad or expectation.

He has owed me money for years, I don't even try, but will also never promote his sites again... and I would have been quite valuable to keep around.

 

I also agree about original sites, I LOVE them and wish there were more of them, it is a bummer to see all these clones... even if you use the same script.. try to create something new that stands out instead of another me too site. But anyway, results matter, so if someone is using a clone and I can get good advertising results on it.. that's fine with me too I guess :P

Well I guess I look at it in 2 ways:

(1) people catch on and get it so they quit buying the very same thing repeatedly and/or

(2) they quit them as time goes on as the first handful of clones does the job, so if you buy the last ones - waste of money because activity dies on the last ones.

 

I agree, you are valuable. Anyone who promotes and gets signups, or even TRIES to do so, is valuable.

 

And... I'm shocked. I really am about no payouts or support tickets. And the amount of people complaining about: John Bell, Timtech people, Robert Puddy (script commissions), Mathew Graves, Adtroopers owner... and I know there are more... but forget.

 

And the giant Mass Exit for 2 years now on numerous little sites.

The sites are down pending a server move. I've just paused a lot of banners from the Your Viral Banner rotator site from displaying in our mailers because their links are currently broken. A lot of banner impression credits are going to go to waste all over the show unfortunately. I hope at least for the sake of people using this, that the sites are back up soon.

There is a thing called risk in which everybody knows when the money is put on the table. Learn by your mistakes and move on.

 

So... basically those who don't get their commissions should just shut up (so the next guy doesn't get his either and it keeps going on)?

But this particulair post is a cut of the profits on sites, buying into a share of them, and not getting those.

I've been hearing about both (commissions and the profit share parts)

I think it is really important to call these things out, so it is in the public.. people can do a google search and look up someone's reputation pretty easily. It helps people know who to avoid.

I have used Matthews sites for a few years now and have to agree that something has been wrong for a while. It's a shame though as it has been said by several people, his sites did have potential. But truthfully, I have to admit I never got any traction from all the ads I ran in his sites. Never not one good lead. Hard to admit I didn't listen to my inner voice, lol. thanks for the info though.

I tend to agree. Calling him out will accomplish one of two things: People will get wise to his crap and ignore him and force him to find another way to make money or suddenly turn honest and start paying. Though from what I have read, I'm betting the former not the latter.
