Did Imran Naseem really just say this?

Woohee! This one nearly made me wet my pants! Imran is now calling out other Warrior Forum members, accusing them of rehashing money making methods!

Because last time Imran was caught, stealing someone elses report, and flogging it as his own WSO, he managed to cry hard and long enough for the WF mods to remove his thread. No body, no case right? So I got the Google Cache links for this thread.

Anyway, I am referring to: Part 1Part 2

And look at this screenshot. Notice how he has a hard time justifying a $27 purchase, yet in his signature, he’s claiming that he is making thousands of dollars per month from facebook, another couple of thousand from offline schemes, and how he makes a fortune on YouTube.

Then he goes ahead, pretends to buy the product, and have a ~250 review just 10 minutes later, trashing the report (der!) So spiteful and petty that he’s trying hard to ruin someone elses WSO.

Here’s a few astonishing things that Imran actually said to this WSO seller:

The report is just a rehash of existing methods you can find on the Internet.

I can show you proof but for a measly amount of money I think you have shot yourself in the foot by not only making yourself look like a complete fool but also someone who I have no intention of doing business with.

And now that we’re on the subject of Imran Naseem (yet again) I’d also like to make a quick reply to “Jim” who left a comment on one of the other Imran posts here. “Jim” seems to be the only person who loves Imran.

1. Bob, I think this blog is bullshit. You start a blog to bash a guy whose products you’ve never purchased? – No, I did not start this blog to bash a guy whose products I never purchased. It just so happens that he caught my interest when he was acting like an assclown. I wrote a few posts regarding Mr Imran Naseem himself, not his products. That’s all.

2. Sounds like most of the people on this forum have never bought anything from Imran, so your credibility as an “authority” is dubious, at best. – Hold on, back up there. We’re talking about a post on my blog here. Not any forums. You didn’t just copy and paste your comment as a “damage control” effort did you? And hey, I never claimed to be an authority, on anything for that matter.

3. Regarding all your “rehashing” points – I think you’re a bit off comparing Imran’s steal-copy-paste-sell-profit “business model” with teachers, athletes, coaches, and surgeons, that practice a respectable profession.

4. Would you give up on a profitable niche if you were making great money with it? – Would you show everyone else how you are making thousands and thousands of dollars per week, in a $5 report? Wouldn’t that be shooting yourself in the foot?

5. so you have to bash someone else in a feeble attempt to make yourself look better – You mean like constantly throwing around accusations of scamming and slurs, shouting at the top of your lungs that you have proof, but when people ask for it, you don’t have any proof to present?

6. I am not here to defend anybody, but those of you who are bashing someone who does an effective job at providing GOOD training information to his buyers (at a reasonable price), without your even having read the material you are bashing, must have your own hidden agenda, which is more transparent than you may think. – The only agenda I have is to make sure as many people as possible are aware of what a scammer Imran Naseem really is, and hopefully they can save a bit of money and some frustration.

Seriously “Jim” I’m just wondering how much Imran paid you to write up that 711 word comment. And on how many blog posts/forum threads you’re spinning it to help salvage whatever is left of your reputation, Imran.

My advice to people who found this post while searching on Google for Imran Naseem products, do not waste your time or money.

Third Tribe Marketing Review – Worth It?

ThirdTribeMarketing is a collaboration of some of the bigger names in the IM world.

Darren Rowse
Brian Clark
Chris Brogan

*Aaron Wall gets mentioned on the About page, but I’m having a hard time finding him anywhere on the site and forum.

I stuck around for three months, hoping and expecting to find some good stuff – instead I just wasted $141.

Having a quick poke around, it seems the forum has or had 3472 subscribed members (that’s the last number I tried adding to the URL – /members/forums/member.php?u=3472 -, which doesn’t return an error “Invalid User specified.”

Here’s a quick guesstimate of what the owners/founders of 3rdtribe have made in the last six and a half months since people signed up at the end of February 2010.

3472 members * $47 = $163184. And that’s if they all just paid for one month. I’m pretty sure you can multiply this number at least 3 or 4 times (6 months – people canceling/subscribing ratio % blahdiblah…) to get the total income unglued media has made from this community so far.

I guesstimate +- $500.000

Not bad for a simple forum eh?

Ah, but is it worth it?

In my opinion? No. The seminars are nothing new, pretty much all that is being said is available on one forum/blog or the other. The amount of seminars is poor. There are no dates listed on the seminars page, but I’m guessing there’s roughly one or two 60 minute sessions per month.

The WOW factor which drags people over the line to subscribe for $47 is definitely the possibility to rub shoulders with the IM celebs in the forums. Nothing more.

I’m not saying it’s a bad thing, I guess it all depends on what side of the field you’re playing. If you have the name, the credibility, and the following, why not make more money? But if you really think the 3rd tribe crew cares about educating you in the ways of IM, wake up. They hunt for profit and the weapon of choice is ignorance.

Your recipe for success; You take a handful of IM celebs, throw in a dash of “unique” content, create an “exclusive” club, and a whole bunch of gullible newbies/wanabees. Let it stew for a few months and profit.
