Review of Mark Warren's Ultimate Wealth Program

By: Anita Buchan

The Ultimate Wealth Program, from Mark Warren, is one of the most popular and well-marketed affiliate marketing programs out there. It is primarily aimed at beginners to affiliate marketing.

The main part of the program is a 48-page e-book. A list of 'random thoughts', bonus e-book and software downloads, and an affiliate marketing website are also included. Even if the main part of the program was not up to much, you could argue that the bonuses are worth the money by themselves!

The core e-book offers a broad introduction to affiliate marketing. It takes you through the basic principles, going step by step. It is fairly clear and simply written. For beginners, it undoubtedly covers all you could need to know.

However, if you have any previous experience of affiliate marketing you may want to purchase a program that is more advanced. Although it gives a good overview of all the basic principles, it fails to go as in-depth as other programs I have reviewed. The tone it is written in can get on the nerves. At times it is straightforward, and at other times he seems to be trying to imitate the Rich Jerk. A mistake, since Rich Jerk is definitely a one off!

It also fails to reveal anything new or particularly exciting. Again, if you are a beginner to affiliate marketing this does not matter. But if you are looking for a program that will teach you to develop your business, and take it to the next level, I would recommend other programs as being more helpful.

Some of the information is also slightly out of date. His section on search engines references several which have now been taken over by their rivals or gone out of business. There are therefore some links which no longer work.

And there are also some statements that I would disagree with, although as Mark Warren is undoubtedly a more successful affiliate marketer than I this may be wrong of me! But I disagree with his statement that all ‘informational products are the same'. The most popular and best selling e-books tend to be so because they offer something new or different, and word quickly spreads.

However, the bonuses are good. They just take a while to digest! There are almost too many. Having over a hundred bonuses sounds good, but some are not worth much.

The software downloads are probably all you need to start up. They might not be top-class, but you are not going to want to spend a lot of money on expensive software before you have even made your first check! You also receive templates of websites, sales letters and banner ads, all of which you might find useful.

And what you should find even more useful is the number of them you have resale rights for. These can be used to attract traffic to your website, as an inducement in building a mailing list, or simply to make yourself some extra money.

I also found customer service to be good. I received access immediately after paying and there were no problems with any of the downloads. The one e-mail I sent to query something received a quick reply, and there is a 90-day money back guarantee.

In conclusion, this is a good package with some significant flaws. For beginners, it contains all the information and software you could need, and is clearly presented and well-written. The list of bonuses covers every topic you could need to know about. However, for those more advanced, this fails to reveal anything new or particularly exciting.

I would recommend this for a beginner, but not the the more advanced.
