Product Reviews
Welcome to the very first edition of
Dave’s IM Product Reviews!
I can point to self-education as one of the primary reasons for my success.
My attitude is, “If I just discover one little nugget that helps me improve my business, it will be worth it”.
And, because of this belief in self-education, (and because I like being on the leading edge of new marketing ideas) I am always buying and reviewing new internet marketing training products.
But, I am very specific and targeted about the products I personally buy / review for my own business.
Usually, there is a specific reason that I buy / review a product, and it is not always for the reason that the seller is putting forth. (You’ll see this – as you read through these reviews)
The goal of this newsletter is to inform you about the ACTUAL products I am buying or reviewing and WHY I decided to buy or review those products. You’ll also see ratings and advice as to who each product is good for. This way, you’ll be able to make informed decisions for your own business.
Enjoy the reviews!

Subject: How to use an exciting new arbitrage technique on eBay, Etsy or Amazon to make $3000 a month, quickly and easily.
Why I bought this product:
There’s a special place in my heart for products that show you how to make money on eBay and Amazon. I buy these because eBay and Amazon get so much traffic and there are many ways to tap into that traffic so as to make easy money. That’s what this product is all about – making easy money by tapping into massive, existing Amazon and eBay traffic. I’m also always interested in new product sourcing strategies and this one highlights one, very powerful one!
Pros / Cons:
Pros: This product shows you a super-easy way to find killer products that you can sell “before you buy them”
This way, you have ZERO money invested in merchandise and therefore have zero risk. This also means you can create as many of these income streams as you want.
Cons: The only issue I had with this product (very minor issue) was that parts of the report are poorly written, but it’s still quite easy to understand.
Benefits: (taken from sales copy)
You don’t even buy the merchandise UNTIL IT ACTUALLY SELLS on eBay, Etsy or Amazon. So, once, you’ve sold the item, THEN you order it and have it delivered (digitally or shipped) to your new customer!
This amazing method requires:
- NO BUYING
- NO INVENTORY
- NO SHIPPING
- NO RISK
- And, LITTLE TO NO TIME TO FULFILL!

Subject: How to use the new “YouTube Cards” to drive traffic to your website, Amazon products or other web property.
Why I bought this product:
I’m always interested in new and exciting ways to do YouTube marketing because I’ve received tons of free traffic from my YouTube videos. YouTube Cards is a new and exciting way to create little ads on your YouTube videos and then drive that YouTube traffic to your own website. (or other web property)
I was specifically interested in how the author, Melanie Fine, shows us how to do bulk edits of our YouTube Cards as well as Annotations. Because of this product, I have now bulk-edited most of my videos to include YouTube cards and to drive free YouTube traffic to my own Udemy courses!
Pros / Cons:
Pros: Melanie is a great teacher and shows you, step-by-step, how to create and use YouTube Cards to drive free YouTube traffic to your own website.
Cons: While the information you get is excellent, Melanie’s teaching style is just a little bit on the dry side.
Benefits: (taken from sales copy)
In this 7-Video Training Course, you will discover:
- How to Use YouTube cards from the ground-up, whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned YouTube marketer
- How to use YouTube cards to add a “subscribe” link to your YouTube channel (YouTube doesn’t have such a link, but I figured it out anyway)
- How to link to your Amazon products (again, for some reason, YouTube doesn’t want to us to link to Amazon through YouTube cards)
- How to track your YouTube card links so you know which videos are sending you the most traffic
- How to add YouTube cards to one video, and copy them automatically to any or all of your other videos in seconds (this alone saved me 10 hours – what could YOU do with ten hours??)

Subject: How to create gigs on Fiverr.com that you sell so you can make an extra $50 – $100 a day.
Why I bought this product:
I’m always interested in any marketplace where there is “built in traffic” and Fiverr.com is one of those marketplaces where I’ve made some good money recently.
I bought this product because I was looking for new and interesting gigs that I could offer – gigs that would be quick & easy to fulfill on Fiverr.
Pros / Cons:
Pros: If you’ve never made money on Fiverr, then this is a great training for you. Two specific tricks that I got out of this product were 1. How to quickly find hot gigs to sell and 2. How to get a larger amount of traffic to your gigs.
Cons: Other than those two tricks, this product is really geared toward the beginner, so if you’ve already sold on Fiverr or are familiar with how to do so, then I would suggest NOT buying this product.
Benefits: (taken from sales copy)
Each time you follow our 6-step system, you are setting up a brand-new income source that’s going to make you money every single day.

Product Name: Simple CPA Profits
Subject: How to make up to $300 per day by promoting CPA offers in 20 minutes a day.
Why I bought this product:
The main reason I bought this product is because I am always looking for new paid traffic sources and this product promised that.
I was not disappointed – featured inside this product are two exciting new ways to get traffic.
Pros / Cons:
Pros: This is a comprehensive explanation of how the authors make up to $300 a day with just a little bit of effort. This training shows you how to make money using CPA (cost per action) business opportunity (biz opp) offers. (CPA is similar to affiliate offers) But the two traffic sources mentioned inside can be helpful for driving traffic to any biz opp offers – not just CPA offers.
I bought this product strictly to find out about the two traffic sources and I’m glad I did. These are two GREAT traffic sources that I will be using to drive traffic to my work from home sales funnels!
Cons: This is a fairly advanced product for advanced internet marketers who are familiar with and who know how to promote CPA offers. For beginners or intermediate marketers, this product might be too advanced.
Benefits: (taken from sales copy)
How to dominate one of the biggest marketplaces by infiltrating one “Profitable” offer that will almost print money for you on a daily basis.
I will be showing you a 6 figure template that will help you turn a failing campaign into profitable winner.
Learn the simple strategies that will take you from $0 to $300 plus days and do it within the next 7 days.

Amazo-X review – $400,000 A Month FBA “Mystery Man” Reveals His Secrets – Amazo-X review
It’s no mystery that you can make a killing with Amazon FBA.
The huge benefit of Amazon FBA is that you let Amazon do the picking, packing and shipping FOR YOU, so you save TONS of time that you can devote to product sourcing.
But there are still some problems with the business model.
Many people involved in Retail Arbitrage (RA) or Online Arbitrage (OA) find themselves on the Amazon FBA “hamster wheel”, having to perpetually “feed the beast”by going out every week (sometimes every day) to continually buy more and more product to keep their business afloat.
Well, what if you no longer had to “feed the beast”?
What if you could do your business from the comfort of your own home and never have to worry about product sourcing again?
What if you could run a $400,000 a month Amazon FBA business that required:
ZERO INVESTMENT
and
ZERO RISK?
And what if this Amazon FBA business even provided you with free product to use to build your reviews up and additional marketing resources AT NO COST?
That’s what you get with Amazo-X, a brand-new Amazon FBA training that just launched and is taught by a $400,000 a MONTH, mystery man.
Check out Amazo-X here: https://daveespino.com/recommends/400k-Strategy-Amazo-X
I’ve had a chance to review this program (pre-launch) and it shows you a POWERFUL STRATEGY that anyone can use to begin building the Amazon FBA business of your dreams.
In the 5 included videos, (roughly 45 minutes of video training) you learn the incredible strategy and also learn about some powerful tools you can use to make that strategy work even better.
You’ll learn exactly what to do, how to do it and why and you’ll be able to make it happen for yourself. (I can’t give away too much here, it’s all in the video trainings)
NOTE: If you are already making six figures a year (profit) with Amazon FBA, then don’t go for the additional “one time offers”, but if you haven’t yet made your goals, then you will probably want to take a serious look at the additional offers, because they will add so much to your training and ability to grow this business.
I can say, after reviewing this product that it truly shows you how to build an Amazon FBA business of your dreams; one with zero financial risk, zero need to spin your wheels doing retail or online arbitrage and zero investment!
By the way, when you order through my link, you will also get my course titled: “Ecommerce – Sell on the top 12 ecommerce sites”!

The Power Of Passive Income
There’s an old saying:
“I’ve been rich and I’ve been poor… and I like rich better!”
I’m going to modify that phrase a bit today…
“I’ve made an hourly wage and I’ve made passive income… and I like passive income better!”
(In fact, I LOVE passive income because of the freedom it creates)
There is NO SUBSTITUTE for having a passive income.
Let me try to put this into words and describe for you what passive income feels like…
- Passive income is income that comes in whether you work or not – it comes in while you’re driving, while you’re playing, while you’re at church and while you’re at lunch. It comes in while you’re sleeping and while you’re awake. It just keeps coming in, all the time!
- Passive income is usually created by doing some hard work ONCE, and then seeing the fruits of that hard work for months and months or even years and years to come.
- Passive income is the opposite of hourly income because with passive income, the number of hours you work (to create the same income) is miniscule!
- Passive income is created by using one of the most powerful wealth building strategies in the world – LEVERAGE!
Here’s the amazing, powerful and almost magical thing about passive income on the Internet.
Making a passive income online is getting easier each year.
This is because the internet is making it easy to aggregate customers and traffic in one place.
Here are a few examples:
Everyone knows that Amazon and eBay are the clear leaders in ecommerce, with hundreds of millions of members. As the leaders, they are aggregators for mass amounts of traffic – traffic that it would cost you and I a fortune to try to generate on our own.
But they give us access to their traffic “for a small fee”…
Now, when you sell on Amazon and eBay, you are not creating a fully passive income, right? But let’s think about it this way…
Let’s say you buy 1,000 units of an item (wholesale) and then list that product on eBay and Amazon.
Once you list the item on those two sites, the main work is done, because now, the two sites do their part – they send you traffic to your listings and they expose your item to buyers all over the world who are looking for it.
When one of these items sells, you ship it (or if you are using FBA, you have Amazon ship it for you) and you’ve just earned some income.
Can you see how this is an “almost-passive income”?
I call it almost passive because you still have to ship the item, which adds another element of work to the example, but it’s pretty close to passive in the sense that, once you list the item, you are freed up to find more items to resell and do it all over again.
It is a way of leveraging…
Here’s an example of a simple passive income…
Have you ever bought a book in the Amazon Kindle marketplace?
Well, the author of that book earns a passive income every time someone buys their ebook.
And, given Amazon’s huge amount of traffic, this can become a substantial passive income if the book is on a popular topic.
There are people making mid-six-figure incomes by simply writing Kindle books!
So, that’s another great example of a way to create a passive income by tapping into an already existing traffic flow. (Amazon’s Kindle Marketplace)
Here’s one more example…
It’s a passive income I’ve been developing pretty aggressively over the last few months – Udemy.
Udemy is the world’s largest online learning platform and is an amazing source of passive income.
Udemy allows anyone to teach anyone about anything.
So, the way Udemy works is simple – you create and publish a video course on something you’re familiar with or know a lot about.
Once your course is published, you now have access to the over 6 million Udemy students who are looking for new things to learn.
As those students begin buying your course, you begin earning a passive income.
This is truly passive income, where it comes in whether you work that day or not.
It comes in while you’re sleeping (because Udemy students live all over the world) and it comes in all throughout the day, too!
It is amazing and only going to get bigger and better.
But here’s what I LOVE about passive income like Udemy income…
You can build upon past income streams!
For example, once you’ve tasted the initial few hundreds a month of passive income, you will want to create more courses / more income.
Since you already have income coming in from your previous courses, this creates a great opportunity for you to build upon that foundation and grow your income exponentially!
Every new course becomes another income stream, just like every new Kindle book becomes a new income stream.
And there are many different ways to build these passive income streams. Let me list just a few ways here:
- Amazon FBA business
- Kindle eBook publishing
- Udemy course publishing
- Information product publishing
- Software creation / publishing
- App development
- Podcasting / Audio publishing
- Affiliate marketing
- And more…
Believe me, once you’ve experienced truly passive income, you will not want to work at other forms of income – it truly takes one of the best wealth building tools – LEVERAGE – and makes it work for you.
Want To Teach Online? Udemy’s Top 10 Instructors Generated $17 Million
If you’ve ever wondered if you could get paid for what you know…
If you’ve ever wondered if you could get paid for the years of experience you’ve developed in a job, sport or a hobby…
…then you’ve got to check out Udemy.
Pronounced YOU-duh-me, Udemy is the world’s largest online learning platform with more than 5 million students and 20,000 courses on just about any topic.
But the real story is in how it is changing the lives of the people who decide to teach on the site.
- There’s the 72-year old copywriter who is making $8,000 a month.
- The young lady who made enough from teaching professional people skills on Udemy to put a down payment on her house.
- The 2 young men who earned $250,000 in 2 months.
- The 25-year-old programmer who created a new in-demand programming course and earned $66,000 his first month.
- The young man who was too sick to go to a traditional job, so he now makes $5,000 a month – mostly passive – from home.
- And on and on, the stories go…
And then there are the countless other Udemy instructors who are earning thousands a month in (mostly) passive income, month after month!
The wonderful thing about teaching on Udemy is that, although you only have to create your online course once, (most courses are in video form and, once published, require very little maintenance, other than answering the occasional student question) it then begins making you an ongoing, passive income! (and it just keeps going, and going, and going)
And if your course is in high demand, it can be a “massive, passive income.”
While many people believe that teaching should only be reserved for those with teaching credentials or for those who have a PhD or some other quaification, Udemy has no such requirements.
If you know a topic well and can present halfway decently, you can teach on Udemy!
In fact, in my “Online Course Creation – Fast & Easy Online Course Publishing” course, I show you 5 different ways to make money with Udemy. (and teaching is only 2 of those!)
So, if you’ve ever felt a twinge of regret for not taking advantage of an opportunity, this is your chance to get in early and begin making a passive income by teaching online.
You can do it!
