    Re: Empower Network

    A Tale of 3 Daves.

    "This is the story of the “Davids”

    David Wood asked the questions. David Sharpe teamed up with him and together they found the answers. The idea for the Empower Network was conceived, and over the last year over 80,000 customers helped to bring it to life.

    Then there was another David.

    The David in the video that you just watched.

    The unlikely hero that lived most of his life deaf, and just had his first $1,000 day marketing on the internet.

    “I go you go.”

    “He goes you go.”

    “If he can, you can.”

    You will make a decision to join when you believe that you can do it.

    Do you believe that you can do it?"

    WHO IS THE THIRD DAVID? Fat slob of 2013?

    Who is this new guy with the ponytail? I see him all over the net as a new leader of empower.

    EDIT: oh is justin. The top dude making 40k a month. I feel really small compared to him.

    My rant:

    I truly believe deep down in my heart the two Dave's are good people who had a vision, but just went on about it the wrong way.

    Its shameless deeds like those of Vick that ruin that vision and make MlM look like a den of theives.

    Re: Empower Network

    Empower Network is holding their event this weekend in Miami. In the past they have suckered in several people with these events. With that being said, each event has a smaller crowd size. It's a matter of time before the pyramid crashes.

    @Fenderil
    Don't blame Vick for making MLM look like a den of thieves. MLM looks like a den of thieves because the industry at large is led by thieves. I suppose whether or not one sees that pernicious industry as a den of thieves depends on how one defines "thief". The New Oxford American Dictionary defines "thief as "a person who steals another person's property, esp. by stealth and without using force or violence." That's the definition I'll go out on a limb here and assert is generally accepted on the planet I inhabit. So . . . Ummmm . . . yeah, they're pretty much all thieves--some of who've been busted and some of whom haven't. Or maybe the quibble is over the definition of "den". OMG, I hope we don't have to go there too!

    I don't know you, Fendaril. So I hope you made this statement with your tongue firmly in your cheek. However, in case you were serious, why would you blame Vick for making MLM look like a den of thieves? MLM looks like a den of thieves on accounta the MLM industry at large is led by thieves--from company founders and CEOs down through high-level IBOs. Of course, I suppose one could quibble over the definition of "thief". The New Oxford American Dictionary defines "thief" as "a person who steals another person's property, esp. by stealth and without using force or violence." I'm going to go way out on a limb here and assert that theirs is the generally-accepted definition on the planet I inhabit. So . . . Ummm . . . Yeah, they're pretty much thieves.

    If, on the other hand, your comment is facetious, then never mind (said in my best impression of the great "Emily Lattella" character from the first edition of SNL).

    I should have been more specific. I was referring to Empower Network in the sense that although it skirts on the law, and it does use some tactics that I don't really endorse,the two Dave's are entreprenuers.Like any entreprenuer they have a vision, but when you blatantly steal downline commissions and claim a technical glitch, that just makes the whole business look bad.

    So in short its vick's actions that make people think the people behind empower network are heartless con man, rather than highly successful salespeople who use manipulation at times to accelerate their goals. It's the type of manipulation and emphasis on recruiting others with promises of riches that repel me, but it works for some people obviously.

    Once again i'm not endorsing MlM or the tactics used to draw people in, but I don't endorse lies and cons, and people who hide behind an MlM and give it a worse name than it already has.

    David Wood and David Sharpe are well aware of what Vick does to get people into EN. They are totally fine with it because it makes them rich too.

    Several people filed complaints to EN about Vick stealing their downlines. Of course nothing was done and Vick kept all of their money.

    The people at the helm of EN were / are outright liars. The supposedly struggling homeless heroes are children of upper crust society.

    Ironically David Wood, David Sharpe and Justin Verrengia....aka 3 of the top earners in the Empower Network pyramid scheme have impregnated their significant others recently. Coincidence? I think not!

    If they do not dump their wife and children, switching one girlfriend for a model is not biggie in this prospective.

    When you have just ripped off a few thousand people, breaking an extra heart or two means next to nothing to this kind of lowlife.

    Re: Empower Network

    ScamXPoser has been promoting Empower Network - giving it 5 stars!

    Here's David of ScamXPoser's bottom line:
    "Bottom line; I think this could be a good thing for you too. Whether you are a beginner in this arena – which this system was really tailored for – or an expert. There are a lot of “experts” who are already members of Empower Network, because they see the value in it."
    You can see how much he loves Empower Network here.

    At least he had the sense to put the word experts in quotes.

    FTC has received more than 160 complaints about Empower Network

    " The FTC has received more than 160 complaints about the company. In the complaints, which the FTC released to TINA.org in response to a Freedom of Information request, consumers said the company offered products that didn’t have any useful information, they were pressured into investing thousands of dollars to qualify for higher commissions but ended up in debt, and were pushed into recruiting others to earn revenue. When they asked for refunds on the products they found useless, and requested the company stop charging their credit cards each month, the company gave them a hard time."

    Re: Empower Network

    this guy seems to have a utube site where everyone is "the best" affiliate marketer.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCA0b-u4ah8


    One of the things he is pushing is Empower Network
    Empower Network -

    Oddly enough while his address is James Starr
    Empower Network: Commission Loophole

    The video begins with "James WOOD"

    Anyway you eventually come across the old one of my downline was s student/poor/owed money etc. tried all sort of marketing schemes and always lost money and struggled to live but now is making millions due to empower. The guy referred to here is Justin Verrengia

    This guy however it seems was not living peniless and has a serial record of duping on other scams and rather than living in a scack was travelling round the world spending that money.
    Justin Verrengia Is A Scam Artist? Yes He Is In My Opinion. | Ethan Vanderbuilt
    2009 - selling My Cash Cow System.
    video from 2008 where he explains what he was doing before MLM
    2008 video how he makes $1-5K per day. In some of his videos today he claims he could only make a few thousand a month.

    Apparently he was inducted by James Wood but that wont stop miracle worker Starr claiming him.

    Re: Empower Network

    Speaking of "best" marketers, I forgot about this. Interesting article, with lots of adult words.

    South Dakota has finally decided that it has had enough of Vick Strizheus’ MLM shenanigans. It seems that because Vick couldn’t uphold the state’s (super-awesome) Business Opportunity Law, he is now barred (if he wish to remain unbarred) from promoting any network marketing scam … including the Empower “99% failure rate” Network.

    Re: Empower Network

    David Wood has been very active on his FB page the past few weeks trying to guilt people into joining the Empower Network scam.

    Here are some examples:

    David Wood
    12 hours ago
    Why I know everyone that is ever any kind of a leader in my team who left...

    ...they will all be back:

    a) Most of them have come back already.

    b) The ones who haven't want to - but are still working out how to frame it. (honestly - it's ok - people will love you if you tell them the truth. Trust me.)

    c) None of them are in a company who's sole mission is to love the team. Empower Network is the only one. The only one.

    I feel bad for anyone not getting to Charlotte.

    I just wanted to tell you all who read my posts, but won't like them out of fear:

    I love you.

    David Wood

    If I didn't own Empower Network, LLC - I would make a half million dollars a month - as a rep.

    Happily doing almost nothing.

    I wouldn't make products.

    I wouldn't train.

    I'd just sell stuff, go to the beach, and help my team sell stuff and go to the beach.

    And thank God every day for a great company, with products that make sense.

    That's it - period!

    Except of course - if you're average. Please look at this:

    I'm going to give you the biggest bonus ever for joining.

    Here it is:

    You have the privilege of getting in ...and buying happily at full price - with no discounts, bonus training, or hype of any kind.

    Other than this:

    If you don't get in, right now - you're going to miss out on a window - a window to do something great, with someone who understands how to get you there.

    With a team that will fight their way there WITH you.

    Because when you join the team - here's the deal:

    You don't have to make up stuff - you can just sell, and go to the beach in your free time. That's actually the bonus.

    Freedom.

    David Wood
    Yesterday
    If you've been thinking about joining.

    Just join.

    It's just 'starting' to get good.

    If you were in before, and want to come back, but are nervous about being a wussy - it's ok.

    I forgive you, as long as you don't quit again.

    You are welcome to get back in.

    Because it's your time.

    Re: Empower Network

    I know some non MLM/Program types who tried it. (just regular bloggers trying to monitize their blog).
    They gave it a try, made zilch and moved on.

    Simon of BB fame and the other pimps moved on.

    D Wood is just out there. He reminds me of the clowns behind Ripplin toward the end.
