Today, we are going to be talking about our product called Rippln, which is kind of a
"mystery grab bag" at this stage because nobody is signing up at this point and really knows
what they are going to end up promoting.
So what is Rippln?
Well, first let's talk about what the product creators claim Rippln is.
They claim that it is a mobile app that is going to go viral.
They are actually claiming that it is going to be the biggest thing since email.
They used in their sales videos and they site some unknown source that I think most of us
have never heard of.
Actually, claiming through the next biggest thing since email is a pretty hefty claim,
but I mean that is a whole amount of ratio entirely.
So what they are claiming is that this mobile app is going to go viral and you giving in
early just like people that got in early during Facebook or early during Twitter and spread
the news to their friends, it went viral and it rippled like if you throw a stone into
a lake and it ripples across the entire lake.
That's their claim and that's what Rippln comes from.
But what's more important is what the creators of Rippln aren't telling you, and what they
aren't telling you is right now Rippln is free to sign up.
You can go to their website and all you need is an invite code and you can sign up and
gain access to the member's area.
But at some point, they even mentioned this once you are in the member's area they are
going to start charging a premium fee and that's because Rippln is based on the MLM,
The Multi-level Marketing Model and that's what they are talking about when they talk
about ripples, is you are going to have multiple levels and that's multi-level marketing.
And although there a lot of legitimate multi-level marketing companies out there, I am not going
to knock, that's what Rippln is.
It is a multi-level marketing company.
And whenever you are talking MLM there's always a base fee and frequently it recurring in
our monthly to be a member that is capable and you unlock the ability to earn commissions
from other members.
Okay, so that's what's going to happen.
At some point they are going to start charging and nobody knows for sure except for the creators,
but you will probably have to be paying that fee to get the commissions and I will talk
a little bit more about whether I think that's a little bit dangerous in a bit later in this
review.
But the point I want to make right now is right now, you have no idea of what you are
signing up to promote.
They say it is a mobile app that they are going to use to promote and you are going
to be able to make money out of all the commissions and all the people that you have referred,
but you don't know what you are signing up to promote right now.
You don't know if you are going to be promoting affiliate marketing products or if you are
going to be promoting self-help products or if you are going to be peddling porn on the
internet.
I don't think that's the route they are going to end up taking, but my point is you have
no idea what you are going to end up promoting right now if you are signing up for Rippln.
So after you get through the NDA which by the way the non-disclosure agreement on that
cage is a joke, you don't have to fill out your name at all.
You can just type the next __3:06__ like I did with all the question marks filled out.
Legally I did not agree to any non-disclosure because it is a joke and it is not set up
properly.
You just click next and go on to the member's area and once you are in the member's area
you just basically have a kind of a preview of your down line and you have a whole bunch
of videos to promote Rippln.
And I already talked about the fact that you have no idea what you are promoting, you have
no idea what you are signing other people up to promote down the road, but you have
those videos to start promoting Rippln so that you can start to spread the word and
start building your down line before you even know what you are going to be marketing.
You are just gaining access to a bunch of videos so that you can help people sign up
and they are going to sign up not really knowing what they are promoting just like you did.
So since I pretty thoroughly established at this point that none of us know exactly what
is going to happen with Rippln all we can really do is speculate and so what is my prediction?
What is my educated guess?
After being in the internet marketing for many years and also seeing a lot of MLM companies
come and go in the night what is my prediction for Rippln?
Well, I can tell you without a doubt, they are going to start charging a premium fee
to be a member.
The creators of Rippln in the member's area have said that they are going to do that.
Okay, so that's it, given, but my prediction is that you are going to have to be a premium
member.
You are going to have paying.
It is probably going to be a monthly fee and you are going to have to be paying that to
be collecting commissions or at least full commissions for whoever you have already invited,
and this is earlier I mentioned that I feel like this is kind of dangerous mentality,
kind of a dangerous approach they are taking and that will explain why now?
Because so many people have gotten in and they feel like they are getting in a ground
level because it is in pre-release, but it has been in pre-release for weeks and they
will be in pre-release for a few more weeks and so everybody is going to feel like they
got in their ground level, and you hear that with MLM companies all the time.
Get in the ground level and those are the people that may get rich, they strike it rich.
But with the Rippln, I am not exactly sure that's going to be the case because so many
people are joining and you can't all be at ground level, okay?
So that's my first prediction.
I have three.
My first prediction is that you are going to have to start paying to collect full commissions,
okay?
So what's my second prediction?
My second prediction with Rippln is that because of the creators behind the product that you
know kind of had hit or miss internet marketing histories it also just kind of the whole business
model I don't think you are going to end up promoting a lot of really reputable products.
You are not going to have really well known brand names.
I don't think you are going to be promoting best buy in the places like that.
You are probably going to end up promoting semi-shady products -- maybe not shady, but
not the best known products.
You are not going to be pushing the best brand names out there because that's what it would
be, the easiest to make commissions out of that I feel like a lot of people going into
this by kind of hoping for that.
But just based on the business model alone you aren't going to be able to get all of
that, okay?
You are not going to be able to get the best of the best.
My third prediction with Rippln applies to any multi-level marketing company which I
guess what Rippln is.
Some people, the people at the very top, the product creators are going to get very, very,
very wealthy.
They are going to make a lot of money off of Rippln.
There are going to be a handful of people that worked at the very, very top that got
in pretty early and probably already had established multi-level marketing histories and experience.
Some of those people are going to make a lot of money too.
They are going to make a pretty handsome amount of money.
Now it's just a handful of people considering all of them.
I mean, we were talking between the very top and that level we are probably talking somewhere
around 2% to 3% max.
That's the way it is with every multi-level marketing company.
And then I guess about 95% to 97% of people are going to have nothing to show for their
efforts in Rippln except for holes in their pockets and a whole bunch of wasted time because
there are going to be a ton of people that joined that start paying that premium fee
and they start wanting to get commissions, but it is just not going to connect.
It is not going to line up for them and that's what happens again in any multi-level marketing
company.
So what is my conclusion?
Now what is my conclusion about Rippln?
I think it is pretty clear at this point that I would not recommend Rippln.
Of course if you want to, you can sign up, pre-register, get in and just kind of stay
posted.
There's no harm in that.
It is not going to hurt you.
You are just going to get some emails down the line.
But as you proceed past that, once they start charging their premium fee and you start looking
at it as a valid business model what causing you to really look at it with a skeptical
eye and be careful going forward.
