Do not use this company for any email campaign or email marketing - at all!!! They will take your money and you will get absolutely nothing in return!!!

This guy is running one very slick scam. He's not the cheapest or the most expensive, he's very convincing on the phone, and he's a complete and utter liar.

You'll pay thousands - or hundreds - of dollars for  what would seem to be a somewhat cheap, yet not crazily so, email campaign. He will tell you that you'll get analytics, from him a week after the campaign finishes.

We did a mailing of 600K - supposedly opt-in, relevant people....those in the exact industry we were looking for. 

Out of 600K emails sent we got a 1% click through - 6000 visitors to our site. Sounds good?

Not at all...read on...

Of those 6000 - not one clicked on anything - not a single click on our page. 100% bounce rate! Not a single one stayed on our site more than 1 second. ONE SECOND!!!  We got 30-35% bounce rates on previous email campaigns with an average time one site of over 10 minutes and 8 page view......this guy's campaign - 1 second time one site, less than 1 page view per visitor, and a 100% bounce rate.

And he claimed this was normal. We claimed it was computer generated false clicks - how else can you account for the statistics - not a single visitor clicked on a single things within our site (and it's a good site:) out of 6000 visitors.

Prior email campaigns we had a 25% conversion rate - 25 PERCENT. With this guy - we didn't even get one conversion out of 6000 visitors. We didn't even get a single "unsubscribe" request!

Do not - DO NOT - do business with this guy.........you've been warned!

No, I am not a competitor as they seem to claim anytime someone reports them for being a scam. John Lucas is an email marketing scammer. They just took as for $399.00.
