Have I Been Scammed by Don Lapre?

I have been an Independent Advertiser of Don Lapre's The Greatest Vitamin in the World program for FIVE months and I still haven't made more than my first $1000 check! $1000 in five months; how is a person supposed to live off that? Why am I not making more money like the testimonials on the infomercial? I think I may have been scammed by Don Lapre!

I'm also an Independent Advertiser for The Greatest Vitamin in the World and I completely disagree with you. I have been doing well with the program for the past three months. I have been to other message forums related to Don Lapre's program and I find that there is a common denominator for those Independent Advertisers who "think they're being scammed." Let me ask you, how often do you spend time promoting your website?

I don't promote much at all. Maybe, in the first month. After that, I expected that the checks would roll in. Besides, I work a full time job and don't have a lot of time to pass out flyers or give out business cards.

Need I say more? The Greatest Vitamin in the World business opportunity is no different than owning your very own business. If you owned a restaurant, how are you going to let people no that it is there without advertising it? Obviously, if you don't promote or advertise, nobody is going to know about it. The same goes with your Independent Advertiser affiliate site.

I've been with the program for a couple of weeks. I've always like Don Lapre and I think he has a great product to offer. You have to promote your affiliate website if you expect people to buy off of it! You can't sit back on your couch and expect to receive checks! That is the biggest misconception many people have when they get involved with an at-home business opportunity. What's more, I get so tired of hearing people whine that they are "being scammed" every time they don't see results of something that they're not even putting effort into! This is the reason why good-hearted, entrepreneurs like Don Lapre get the reputation of being a "scam artist."

I didn't say that Don Lapre was a scam artist! I asked if I others thought I was being scammed. Most importantly, I wanted feedback from other Independent Advertisers to see if they were experiencing the same issues I was having.

Obviously, you have to work the program, Kevin. I know it's easy to give up if you're not seeing the results that you are expecting. But, you keep trying. Remind yourself of your future goals and go for them!

Good point, David! With Don Lapre's program, you can get Customer Service and Coaching support. There reps are awesome! You even have a Live Chat feature on your website that you can use to Instant Message reps if you don't feel like calling! Remember Kevin, with you posts negative things about the program, there is a chance that you're hurting your own business if others read it!

Sorry guys! I was just a little frustrated. I am going to put more effort into working the program. After all, I've already made one $1000 check. If the company were a scam, I wouldn't have received that! Thanks for listening to me vent.

No problem, Kevin. Good luck!
