StomperNet SIMPLE - Cancelled!
Well, I’ve finally done it - I just cancelled my StomperNet SIMPLE subscription.
Although I’ve been quite critical of it for some time, it isn’t without some regret as I did learn plenty, it’s a shame that StomperNet didn’t give it a bit more priority some months ago.
As you may already be away StomperNet SIMPLE was originally the $1 trial back in May. Led by Australian internet guru Ed Dale it was a month packed with info on how to get an internet business off the ground.
Unfortunately due to poor communication on somebody’s part - I don’t know who is at fault here - the $1 triallers didn’t get as much for their dollar as some of them expected and so the first murmurs of discontent appeared. As for me, I was mainly happy with it at that stage and signed up for $97/month. There were some problems with some of the content, which coincided with the StomperNet conference and so there was a delay in getting it sorted.
That first $97 month did continue in much the same line, although I wasn’t happy with some of what I’d done. However in July the amount of new content was scaled back radically and many people started to leave, asking themselves what they were actually getting for their $97.
August was worse and although a whole load of new content was promised, most of it failed to materialize. September came and went; finally in October we had some more content, but for me it was a question of too little, too late - I joined Immediate Edge at the beginning of Sepember, also for $97/month, and the amount and frequency of content is fantastic. Perhaps Immediate Edge also had a shaky start, I don’t know, but new content is posted regularly, there have been a couple of amazing Q&A sessions (3+ hours for the most recent) and Dan Raine and Ed Dale talk you through their thought processes when choosing new markets to attack.
The irony is that the site I put together for StomperNet is starting to gain a trickle of orders. May Immediate Edge turn that into a downpour!
