How we research products
You cannot check whether we are honest by being told that we are. So here is the method, and the difference between the two things most sites blur.
Used versus researched
Used
We hold an account and can describe it from the inside. Right now that applies to one product: MLM Recruit On Demand, where the Owner is a member. Statements about its supplied leads come from that account's own exported data, not from marketing copy.
Researched
We have read the vendor's own current pages and can describe what they claim, what it costs and what it appears to do — but we have not used it. LeadsMiner Pro and MineeMe are both in this category, and their pages say so.
Every product page states which of the two it is. We will not write "we tested" about something we opened a sales page for.
Primary sources first
Facts come from the vendor's own current material before anything written about them. This matters more than it sounds: while researching MineeMe we found a widely-repeated third-party description claiming it finds business prospects by industry and job title. The vendor's own site describes something quite different. We used the vendor.
What gets labelled
- Verified — read directly from the vendor's page, or from our own account.
- Researched — established from sources, but not something we have used.
- Not established — we say so rather than estimate. Commission rates for two of the three products we cover are simply not published, so we do not quote the figures circulating elsewhere.
What we refuse to publish
- Income claims. Not ours, not "typical results", not implied. Where a vendor makes one, we report it as theirs and do not repeat it as a forecast.
- Invented numbers. Prices carry the date we checked them. Statistics carry a source or do not appear.
- Claimed experience we don't have.
- A verdict shaped by commission. See how we make money.
Corrections
Prices and terms in this category change often, which is why pages carry a date. If something here is wrong we would rather fix it than defend it, and corrections are made on the page itself.
