1. Wow, the offerings of the SMART(ER) Business Network are genuinely comprehensive and impressive! The integration of AI staff members across various domains seems like a game-changer for entrepreneurs. My question is: With such a diverse range of resources, tools, and courses, how does the platform ensure that new members don’t feel overwhelmed and can navigate efficiently to the most relevant content for their specific needs? Looking forward to hearing more about this!

   Wishing you well,

   Lou.

   1. Hi, Lou!

      Thanks for your comment, first of all…

      —

      Yes, it can be overwhelming for the newcomer to the online business world for sure. That is why we have a special series of courses set up broadly named “Getting Started.” These walk the entrepreneur through the process of determining their goals, and the various online or offline options that are most lucrative, and then walk them through the research and business plan preparation phases.

      —

      It does not stop there, though. We have checklists that provide an outline for virtually every phase of their business, that they can tap into as they conduct their day-to-day tasks operating their new business. We also detail how they should track data from the various sources to measure their effectiveness and make adjustments based on results.

      —

      Lastly, for those entrepreneurs who may be a bit more seasoned and who perhaps already have their businesses up and running, we have tools and materials/resources to enable them top leverage their success to take the business to the next level.

      —

      One of the reasons that we offer so many business options is that we are not all cut out of the same piece of material, We have unique backgrounds, skill sets, interests, and assets that all come into play as you get started building your independence.

      —

      This network has grown over the past year plus, and as of now, I think we have the right combination of tools, training, resources, coaching, and community. It is not etched in stone, however. Just as people are unique and require different options, we also realize we too have to be adaptable and continuously improve what we are offering.

      —

      Please feel free to join the network and see for yourself. It costs nothing, and if you think it is worthy, you can recommend it to others and benefit in a number of ways through promoting the recruiting contest and the site membership!

      —

      Cheers!

2. This sounds like a fantastic opportunity for entrepreneurs! I’m curious about the effectiveness of the AI-powered assistance – how exactly does it work, and what kind of support can we expect in various business areas? Additionally, the personalized coaching and mentoring by Coach Dave is intriguing. What’s the format of these sessions, and how often do they occur? The member shop with exclusive discounts is also appealing, but what specific products and services are available there? Lastly, it’s great that there are contests and ongoing growth opportunities; could you provide more details about these contests and how they benefit members? Overall, it seems like a valuable network, but I’d love more information on these aspects.

      Use cases for the AI Staff to now: I have used them for marketing plans, launch plans, video script writing, image generation, support staff for our support sites, blog posts, niche research, legal document preparation, and even diets and workout planning for myself!

      —

      They are all very smart and have saved me at least 100 hours or more of work! Going forward, as I incorporate their skills into more areas of the business, my guess is that they will allow me to expand greatly the level of business without having to hire a lot more people.

      —

      (3) Coaching sessions – Daily during the course of the week, Coach Dave interacts with community members at the community site and within the academy and shop sites. Additionally, there are weekly live-streamed sessions (we archive them) for members and a separate stream weekly for affiliates. The small group and 1-1 coaching is an add-on service that is made available to members at a discount price.

      —

      (4) There is a wide range of products and services available within the member shop. All the products that we have in the other public shops are there, and as we grow the shop’s inventories the member shop grows as well. There are tools for automation, marketing, and productivity, WordPress premium plugins, themes, page-builders, and many other resources such as business planners, checklists, PLR products (private label rights), lead magnet kits; and social media 30-day kits, etc.

      —

      In regards to services, we have DFY niche and membership sites, e-com sites, hosting website building, bundles of resources that we can help members use, and also the coaching, small group, and 1-1 will eventually show up there.

      —

      In short, a one-stop shop. Referrals will earn the referrer (affiliate) a commission and the member spending money will save 10% using the coupon they have as a member. The idea is that everyone wins without breaking the bank of all.

      —

      (5) Contests and Growth Opportunities – for the foreseeable future, we will be running monthly recruiting contests to help generate more interest and visibility of the SMART(ER) Business Network. These days it can be hard to gain a foothold in garnering attention from the targeted audiences, so we feel that this is a great way to get some attention and action, much like Dropbox did so many years ago.

      —

      The monthly affiliate contests and the recruiting contests have cash prizes that affiliates can earn based on their sales and referrals. They can triple dip too. This means they can earn as affiliates become paid members and purchase needed materials from the shop, they can also earn from the recruiting contest, and lastly, if they are sharp they can also win the affiliate contest!

      —

      We will be shaping the network as we grow, so likely improvements and innovations not even thought about will be added over the coming months and years. Constant improvement, listening to our members, keeping up with the markets, and hard work will ensure that we are around for the long haul and that our members are too!

      —

      If you have any more questions, please revert, and do sign up for the free 7-day access soon and also get in on the recruiting contest. Each month, that starts all over again as we drop the numbers and data back to zero. That means you can excel month after month and have the same chance as everyone else to do so!

      —

      Cheers!

3. I could only open one of the videos here and they talked about AI training one in various different things to help you succeed online, as well as having live mentors.

   I am interested to see what types of courses they offer. I was unsure from the video if it was online marketing related or courses in anything you want to find out about.

   These types of platforms are definitely the future in learning and courses, and the sky is now the limit for anyone who wants to study further.

   Reply

   1. Hello, Michal…

      The best way to really dig down on what is on offer is to check out the platform and site to learn everything you might want to know! You may want to check your connection )internet) as no other visitors have had the viewing problem for the videos.

      ….

      The content dives down into the AO a bit, and in the comment section is a response to one comment I detailed the many areas of expertise that you can access as well as laid out some actual use cases, in this instance for our business.

      —

      There are a variety of business models that are covered in the academy (over 20) and the core competency courses are all skills that every business owner these days needs to know about. Examples include email, marketing, creating sales funnels, copywriting, etc.  

      —

      The live mentoring, combined with the daily interactions that take place within the community and the academy site, are very helpful to members as they plan, start, and grow their businesses. Often JV arrangements can be worked out, and it just promotes an atmosphere where things get done versus the social platforms which too often have distractions that prevent maximum efficiency of your worktime.

      —

      Online businesses are not going away at all, you are right, Affiliate marketing, digital products, services, and SAAS (software as a service) are examples of niches that are growing by leaps and bounds, It is an exciting time to be starting or growing a business!

4. Good to see you have a solid staff behind you with their profiles on show. This is encouraging. There a re a lot of one-man-bands out there, out to make a quick quid. It sounds like you have quite a wealth of expertise and experience on offer and while I am always hesitant about these things, a free trial would certainly draw me in to investigate your options deeper. Love the YouTube playlists and reference library – so helpful and well organised. When you say you can still leverage this offer by referring a few people, how many people is ‘a few’?

   1. Hi, Michelle!

      Thanks for your interest and for stopping by today! Indeed, having a stable of trained SMART(ER( AI Staff is going to be very helpful for any member that is planning, starting, or growing their business. It is what I like to call an equalizer factor.

      —

      Many small business owners or would-be owners start out as one-man bands, as you call it. Entrepreneurship is alive and well in many parts of the world, and thanks to sites such the the SMART(ER) Business Network, the cost to get started has never been less than it is right now!

      —

      Yes, to attract both entrepreneurs wanting to get started and also the affiliate promoters we have developed a rich set of training courses and subjects plus made it attractive to promote the platform to others. The commissions are reasonable and due to the recurring and lifetime features (along with the cash prize awards for excellence) of the affiliate program, we will be drawing n both types (newbies and experienced marketers).

      — 

      The free trial aspect is a great way to enable people to give the platform a test run. The 7-day versus one-day or three days is also long enough so they can actually take the training and start something to see that the platform offers value. Then the pricing is also super competitive and helps too, we think…

      —

      There is a sliding scale for referrals and rewards with the contest(s). The more referrals, the more free access. The numbers are low to start earning free months of access, and at numbers into the 10s or higher, the rewards are also higher. As these change from time to time, I would recommend that you go to the page using the link provided and get the latest update/information…

5. This is incredible news! The Smarter Academy welcoming members is a thrilling chance for those keen to boost their knowledge and skills. Offering a diverse array of courses, this academy promises enriching learning opportunities for everyone who becomes a part of it.

   I’m intrigued to learn what distinguishes Smarter Academy from other educational institutions. Will there be innovative teaching methods or exceptional resources in place to guarantee a truly transformative and enriching learning journey for members?

   1. Hello, Kiersti,

      Thanks for stopping by today. Always great to see new faces on the site and always nice to get their feedback regarding our content/offers/information! We welcome the opportunity to expand on the basic blog post to help clarify for others who may be stopping by down the road a bit…

      —

      Not only is the SMART(ER) Business Network a great way to learn new things quickly with the courses, the case studies, the reference library, the AI Staff, and the community of like-minded entrepreneurs, it is much more than that. That is the start, or the springboard, as I like to think of it, for putting what you learn to work with a business that is earning the member a stream of income.

      —

      If you read through the various features and tools that are included with the SMART(ER) Business Network, you will see many things that the member will have access to that just is not available on other similar sites. That means more places to go and more money to get the resources and tools you need to build that business. 

      —

      Our focus has been to offer a flexible platform that will allow anyone with an interest in starting an online business (or a brick-and-mortar, or a hybrid combination for that matter) to do so at a reasonable price and within a reasonable period of time before they start seeing results (assuming they put in the effort).

      —

      Too many platforms out there today are very inflexible when it comes to the business model and the deployment plan to get a business started. People are not all the same, their circumstances are not the same, and their motivations and needs are not the same. 

      —

      Business platforms such as this one need to cater to those differences while helping them to develop viable options and plans that will result in successes earlier on in the process in my opinion. That factor was one of the main motivations for developing this platform,…

      —

      Have a look at the affiliate program too as you check out the site, the recruiting contest, the community, and the shop(s) that are found within the SMART(ER) Business Network. I think you will be pleasantly surprised. Note that there are still some free 1-year access memberships available, worth at regular pricing $1000 a year.  

      —

      You might want to check that out and sign up – that could change your whole business and outlook over the next year! See you inside!

6. Hi, this seems like an interesting thing for me. It can be so hard to get the right mentorship and support these days. Especially when your budget is tight. I’m just wondering if this strictly for entrepreneurship, or would it also be applicable for self development?

   that’s the good thing about business, is that self growth is such a important part of it 

   Reply

   1. Hello, Jake!

      Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment. I and the SMART(ER) Support Team really appreciate it. Feedback is important to us, as otherwise, we will never know what we are doing well and what we need to improve on in the eyes of the members or prospects that may become members…

      —

      The self-development is an important area of the overall business in my opinion. So the answer to your question is a definite “Yes!” The other areas that we cover outside of the business models and the core competencies are self-development, professional development, WordPress (because it is such a huge factor in so many businesses and also a subject that requires a lot of training for we have it as a separate area), leadership, and even things like nutrition and staying in shape, etc.

      —

      There are also some of the SMART(ER) AI Staff that have been training in these sorts of shoulder areas of focus so they can help the members as well. These AI Staff members have been trained with all the knowledge about their areas of expertise and are always standing by to help. They also work 24 hours a day, do not ever get sick and want no vacation!  

      —

      Thanks for your excellent question and be sure to sign up as quickly as possible to get access to the annual Platinum membership level at absolutely no cost to you. You likely can leverage that membership in a number of ways to take your business to new heights!

7. Hi there. This article about SMART(ER) Academy opening its doors for members is truly exciting! The offer of a lifetime membership for just $99 is remarkable. The inclusion of AI technology and expert-led courses is a game-changer. The community, personalized coaching, and member shop make it a comprehensive resource. Thanks for sharing this incredible opportunity!

   Reply

   1. Hi, Ana!

      Thanks for popping through the site and also for taking a look at this latest blog post referencing the SMART(ER) Business Network opening and offers! I agree with you that the $ 99-lifetime deal being offered is a no-brainer and quite an opportunity!

      —

      For those that are NOT ready to take the $99 plunge (again this is an offer that will not be around for long, as there are only 200 slots available at that price and it will go up to a still super price of $199.99 or $250 (2 x $125)( the other option of great interest might be the monthly recruiting contest.

      —

      That is free to enter and can earn you free immediate access to the Pemiumlevel membership for 7 days, and simply by referring other people to the contest and the membership you can earn free additional months of access and also an entire year of Platinum membership with enough referrals that take action and sign up.

      —

      There are advantages to both means of getting access, just as there are for affiliates that are paid members versus the affiliates that are not paying members of the SMART(ER) Business Network. The point is that we have alternatives that will fit a larger segment of the target audience and through this approach will get more attention, and action-takers, and help us help more people.

      —

      At the end of the day, that is what the whole system is set up for – to help people get started with their business, It takes a number of things to have in place to make that work. The only thing we cannot provide is the mindset to have people follow through and actually do things. Too many simply dream but never do. 

      —

      There are a lot of reasons for that lack of follow-through as well, and we do try to address that in the Getting Started area of the training academy. Once you have that in place, the sky is the limit as we show how to plan and start a number of business model businesses.

      —

      Once that mindset is right, what we have found over the years is the second most important thing is mentoring and coaching. Anyone who excels in any niche or sport normally will have someone behind or with them supporting their endeavors. It can make the difference between surviving and thriving, in our opinion. 

      —

      Thanks so much for stopping by and I do hope that you will consider promoting this SMART(ER) Business Network to your contacts! We would love to have you join us!

8. What a creative way to introduce people to affiliate, marketing, and an education program that will help them get a Headstart in having a side hustle for extra money. Smart(er) Business academy is a great way to learn how to do affiliate marketing. Including AI education which helps with content production will encourage those who are afraid that they can’t do content.  And having a community to fall back on, and ask advice from is a great tool for anyone looking to make money online.  Great article – thanks very much.

   1. Hello, Diedre!

      First of all, thanks so much for stopping by! We do love to hear from our site visitors! We would like to see you also inside the SMART(ER) Business Academy if you have the time! Right now, we still have a few of the free 1-year Platinum Member slots available so if you get over there quickly you can tap into them and get $1000 in value for nothing! 

      —

      The good thing is there is much more than just affiliate marketing covered by the training. There are over 80 courses published right now, and there are an additional 420 in the queue to be posted over the coming year! These cover a wide variety of business models and many core competency skills that business owners need.

      —

      The AI staff are critical pieces of the business puzzle these days, as they help you leverage your time, reach, and capabilities by many factors of scale at little to no cost. The 40 we have will cover pretty much any task that a typical business owner may have and then some.

      —

      I know that the AI staff has saved us over 400 hours already in a typical month of use (equivalent to 10 full-time workers!), and it will be saving that much and likely more going forward on a regular basis. That is significant. Think how much you can scale up your business by having that much free labor that requires no vacation, time off, sick days, etc.!

      —

      The community is also a key feature of the SMART(RT) Business Network, as you have recognized. The interaction, advice, support, JV opportunities, and having a place where things are focused versus a social platform site where distractions get in the way too often is a valuable feature. 

      —

      So we will see you on the inside! Have a great day!

      Cheers!

9. Hi Coach Dave,

   This SMART(ER) Academy sounds really helpful for business owners with all the support you provide. I’d love to hear some success stories from members who’ve gone through the program already. It would be awesome to read how the coaching and guidance has helped others succeed. If you’ve got any testimonials to share, I’d really appreciate taking a look. Seems like a great way to get your business to the next level!

   Cheers,
   Jack

   1. Hey There, Jack!

      Thanks much for stopping by and for sure we have some testimonials from happy members or clients who have worked with us over the years. Some you will see directly on the academy site as you look through it, and some are offline local or regional clients that have used our services for years.

      —

      Without giving away too much private information, I can say that we work with media companies, real estate companies, and some smaller businesses that have SAAS and agency support needs, and finally, we do VA support in some cases. 

      —

      The site itself is relatively new, as we are transitioning from an older less feature-capable site to the WordPress-based LMS, and the community site is the same. The shop is also fairly new (some of the shops where items are listed are older, but the member shops are very new).

      —

      Hence the testimonials will be from the overall work that we have done for others that is related to the work we have done with the academy, shop, and community sites. Again, as you peruse the sites we have you will see the testimonials smattered throughout to include on checkout pages…

      —

      See you inside!

      Cheers!

10. Thank you for sharing this opportunity to join the SMART(ER) academy. I am slightly confused though as to what type of courses, resources, and ideas are released every week and month. Is it training for affiliate marketing? Or is it just being able to network with other business owners? 

    You mention the payment of $99 that gives one lifetime access, but are there other costs involved? Thank you for clarifying. 

    Reply

    1. Hi, Line!

       Thanks for stopping by today. We always appreciate feedback and questions, as it gives us the chance to provide further clarification as to what is included in the SMART(ER) Business Network for members to tap into as they plan and implement their businesses.

       —

       In regards to the types of business courses that are available, we are focusing on about 20 that are the main types of businesses that are making people good incomes online, offline, or hybrid type businesses that combine online and offline efforts.

       —

       These include but are not limited to niches such as affiliate marketing, POD (Print on Demand), YouTube Channel Monetization, arts and crafts ((i.e. Etsy, Creative Fabrica, etc.), drop-shipping, membership programs, SAAS (software as a service), Freelancing, Coaching, copywriting, website development, podcasting, domain and website flipping, teaching online, digital products, e-commerce stores, FBA, etc.

       —

       The core competency courses cover basic and advanced skills such as email marketing, social media marketing, sales funnel development, business writing, research methods, AI implementation, use of PLR (private label rights), use of tools such as Zapier, auto-responders, website page builders, and our proprietary tools such as link cloaker, social and website posting tools, etc.  

       —

       There are specialized skills needed for members too based on the type of business that they want to pursue and there are skills that every business owner needs to have these days to operate a business, whether online or offline. An example of an area that all businesses need to know about is a website. It is crucial these days to have a site and also a social presence. We teach about how to set these up effectively and as quickly as possible have them live and ready for views/traffic…

       —

       Affiliate marketing is a focus as well, as mentioned above, and for those who want to promote the program/network, there are additional training and materials available along with coaching sessions to support their promotion efforts for the SMART(ER) Business Network. This is in addition to the weekly coaching that is provided to all members.

       —

       Networking with other business owners is a big part/benefit of the network too. The community is a standalone site (NOT a Facebook Group) where other entrepreneurs can converse with you and together you can push and help one another develop and grow their businesses. Members can communicate directly with one another and even share files, videos, etc.

       —

       The special flash sale is indeed $99 right now for lifetime access. Once the 200 slots allocated for this pricing are sold out, that offer will go away. It is intended to kick-start the membership and get people interested in seeing what is on offer. It is well worth it. The next price rise will be to $199.99 ($200) and $250 (2 x $125) which will be in place after the 200 $99 slots are sold.

       —

       The AI Staff access alone is worth much more than the $99 price, as you have 40 trained staff that you can tap into as you go about your daily tasks operating your business. I know that we use them every day and they save so much time that we can get 10x as much done with the same amount of staff.

       —

       That also means that we can hire one to two more staff and get that much more productivity, hence can grow the business that much faster. Truly AI is going to be as disruptive as the internet or mobile phones have been for the business world.

       —  

       Lastly, in regards to additional costs, it really depends on your business and your approach. Most people will want to have an autoresponder service. They will want to have some sort of lead generation system, as traffic is key to any business’s success. There are other automation, marketing, and productivity tools that you can add to your business as well that will involve additional costs. It depends on what you are building, how fast you want to expand, and the exact goals the member may have. Again, each person will have their own business plan and end game.  

       —

       Of course, too many people buy stuff that they really do not need, based on the sales pages and offers they are presented with on a constant basis. They end up spending money that they really do not need to spend. This is where our shop comes in. The shop is a rolled-up version of all our shops that focus on different tools or resources. Rather than having to visit all the shops, we have one shop that combines everything for members to peruse. 

       —

       In that member resource shop, we have many resources for members that they can purchase at a lower price using the lower-than-market prices and the lifetime 10% discount coupon they get as a paid member. They can use that discount again and again as they do but the things they may need for their business.   

       —

       Things like tools, services, coaching, materials such as lead magnet kits, social media kits, business checklists, planners, journals, videos, images, swipe files, DFY AI Engineer prompts, websites, memberships, academy sites, drop-shipping sites, etc. are all found in that shop inventory, and we are adding to it weekly new items.

       We have 5 external shops and will be growing these to 12 total. There are two shops that are for members though that will save money and help members earn money. The first is the shop mentioned above. Members save using the discount and tapping into low prices (lower than the market), and earn when their affiliates purchase goods and services from the shop. 

       —

       The second shop that is of interest is the member shop where they can list their own products and services for other members. They have a means to get some sales started and also get some feedback from members on their offers. There is a small admin fee and of course, PayPal or Stripe fees involved, but nonetheless it is a good opportunity to get some sales (without affiliate fees too).

       —

       One of the premises for designing the SMART(ER) Business Network as described is that we know it is not a cookie-cutter world we live in. Each person has their own set of circumstances and the business that they want to pursue and have the most success with is unique to them. There are some commonalities, but every person is not going to want to do affiliate marketing. With us they have options.

       —

       The AI Staff can help with any business focus and much more. Personal development, including health, diet, mindfulness, career counseling, professional development, leadership, and even some therapy/advice are parts of the overall effort they can be involved with and provide assistance with for members.

       —

       All of these benefits are part of the SMART(ER) Business Network. There are more, but these do address your specific questions, and I hope that they have helped you understand what is included with membership. Indeed, much like similar sites, but with much more value. If you have more questions, just ask!

11. Hi there, What an innovative approach to acquaint individuals with the world of affiliate marketing and an educational program designed to give them a jumpstart in establishing a side hustle for additional income. 

    The Smart Business Academy serves as an excellent platform for acquiring the skills needed for successful affiliate marketing. Moreover, the incorporation of AI education, which aids in content creation, is particularly reassuring for those who may have reservations about producing content. 

    Additionally, the presence of a supportive community that offers guidance and advice is an invaluable resource for anyone aspiring to generate income online. This article is truly insightful and much appreciated.

    1. Hello, Herman!

       Thanks for popping through, and also taking the time to drop a comment here. We do like to get feedback from our visitors, and the information is used as we continue to build out the SMART(ER) Business Network for our member’s use.

       —

       There is much more than affiliate marketing that is possible with the network. On top of affiliate marketing (you can learn how to set up your own affiliate marketing program, and also learn in detail what to do to leverage the power that the network offers for others and earn affiliate income from the site you are learning from)…
       —

       We also offer training, case studies, YouTube playlists, and trending ideas of many other potential business models that can be pursued by our members. Since there are so many unique requirements out there, we know that many entrepreneurs will want to pursue other models..

       —

       Right now, we have training on 20+ business models, and this is growing as AI comes into the mainstream, and more opportunities are opened up to establish and grow a business. We stay abreast of what is happening in the small business world and then apply the lessons and opportunities to our site to help members get ahead faster…

       —

       The AI staff members have skills in a number of areas that all small business owners delve into on a daily or weekly basis. They can do so much more than create articles. There are 40 in total, and they do things like creating marketing plans, video scripts, lead magnets, sales funnels, and website support. etc.

       —

       We do provide training on how best to leverage the AI staff members, and provide a robust set of prompts to use so you do not start from nothing. This means even less wasted time and even more production for members. They have been a big hit for many and it does not look like that will change.

       —

       Note that we do have the recruiting contest active monthly too, and for referrals, you get free access to the Premium level of the academy and network. As you bring in more referrals. and they too sign up for the contest, plus if they sign up for the free 7-day trial, you get more free months of access added to the free membership. Lastly, you can also earn commissions as a paid or free member.

       —

       The amount of commission depends on the purchase, the status you have within the network, and even whether or not there is a sale ongoing or not. The rates provided are between 10-25% and are recurring and lifetime. This means you can earn again and again from the one referral as they add to the resources they need for their business.

       —

       As a registered member, another benefit is that you can list your products and services to other members through our member shop. This is a fast way to get started selling your own stuff and earning money for your business. There are admin and payment gateway fees but less than what you would pay a platform such as Shopify and there are no costs to list.

       —

       The community is a strong point as well, as you mention. It really helps when you have a group of people who are all focused on building their businesses. They can pull each other up (inspiration), provide tips or receive them, and even arrange JVs (joint ventures) with one another. An example might be an email campaign swap, where you send an offer from the JV partner to your subscriber list, and they send your offer out to their subscribers.  

       —

       As you can tell, I am quite excited to be able to get this network out to market,. We have been working on various renditions of it over the past months and we think the move to prime time is past due! I hope you will join us, and we will see you on the inside!

       —

12. Apart from the bonuses, I am excited to learn of your hands-on training for me. There are lots of platforms with diverse offers but less training. And the secret to success in any business is training. Seeing your good product, I would like to work with you as an affiliate. Kindly let me know the tools you have for affiliates to promote your products.

    Reply

    1. Hi, Parameter…

       Thanks for stopping by, l; love to hear from our visitors and answer the questions/help them get started with their business ventures. It is what we do!

       —

       Yes, once you have registered for the free trial account, you will have access to a lot of free training that would cost 100s of dollars on other similar, if with fewer features, networks. In total, there are I think 13 courses that cost nothing after registration. 

       —

       As an affiliate, you will get access to specialized advanced training to learn all the ins and outs of our network, you will have weekly coaching sessions available (these are live but we record and post them in an archive folder), on top of many resources such as swipe files, banners, explainer videos, and more.

       —

       Even as a free member, you will earn between 10 to 20% in commissions and these are lifetime and recurring. For example, if a referral from you buys a membership, you get a commission, and if they later buy some business resources through our member shop, such as business checklist volumes, you will again earn a commission. If they buy a coaching program from us later on down the road, you will again earn a commission, Your lifetime value of that referral can go up and up over time.

       —

       So how to get started? Use the links in the article to get to the academy and go to the shop page. There you will see the different free and paid options. After signing up the free courses will be available, and using the affiliate menu tab at the top of every page you will get to the page to request approval as an affiliate. Once approved, you have your own dashboard and access to all the materials in the program. 

       —

       I recommend not to stop there though for some quick wins! You can sign up for our recruiting contest and earn money and rewards for referring others to the academy and contest. We have a series of rewards, and there is a monthly contest that we also have where winners get cash prizes. Note the same applies to our affiliate program.

       —

       If you have more questions, do not hesitate to ask. We hope to see you inside the academy and network (that includes access to a private and exclusive community too, by the way!) soon!

       —

       Cheers!

13. Hello David,

    The SMART(ER) Business Network seems like a game-changer for entrepreneurs. I’m especially excited about the AI-powered assistance you mentioned. 

    AI is something I’m really into these days, especially since it’s still relatively new (i.e. ChatGPT).

    Could you share more details on how advanced the AI is in delivering actionable business insights? 

    I’m curious to know what your thoughts are on this topic. Thank you for sharing.

    Reply

    1. Hey There, Eric!

       Thanks for visiting the website and this article, we always appreciate it when people take the time to also add in their thoughts and questions via comments! It gives us an opportunity to further add context to the basic article and offer more clarification.

       —

       Especially with the subject of this post, the SMART(ER) Business Network, this holds true. There are many features and in the text, we try to touch on each, but it is impossible to dive down on each or the post would turn into a book! In the area of the SMART(ER) AI staff, there is so much to expand on…

       —

       We have a total of 40 staff members on board now, and each has been trained in a particular specialty that all business owners will need to be involved in at least from time to time or on a regular basis. All pertinent information from across the internet has been used to train each of the staff, and the training was based on the 3.5 version of ChatGPT. 

       —

       There is an option to have the staff members gain live access to the internet to gather any further information that has been added over the past year or so. Right now, that level of access is limited to members who are part of our premium coaching program (we have two – one is a small group, and the other is a 1-1 program). This is not needed 99.9% of the time from what we have experienced so far.

       —

       Based on the use cases to now, there is more than enough expertise available with the skill sets that each has to take care of any business tasks or requirements that may be requested. We have people using the business-focused staff to create content such as lead magnets, sales page copy, blog content, marketing plans, business plans, marketing graphics, admin procedures (i.e. SOPs, data tracking, accounting, HR procedures, etc.), and more.

       —

       There is another side/focus for some of the staff members we include that is yet to be determined regarding the degree of effectiveness or need. That involves the personal development that we think is important. Everything from a career counselor, a therapist, a personal trainer, a chef, and a nutritionist are in the package, plus more…The reason I have added these staff members goes back to my overall philosophy of life – business blending with the lifestyle you might be seeking to build for yourself. They kind of go hand in hand, in my opinion…

       —

       How that plays out within the SMART(ER) Business Network is as follows: I am a big believer that we can provide all the training in the world, and provide tools, resources, and even coaching, but the one thing that we have absolutely no control over is the mindset that members bring with them. In that regard, we start all off (recommended) with a set of courses we have grouped into what we call  “Getting Started.”  

       —

       These help bring some focus and clarity right out the gate and help the new member identify the best options they might wish to pursue based on many factors of their current situation that they will explore. Based on that, they then can explore the various business models that might work, and can further drill down to a particular niche or target market.

       —

       Once they have gathered a lot of information, and have determined the best method to pursue, they can use our SMART(RT) AI staff to write a business plan, they can determine a plan of attack using a content marketing and social marketing plan, plus work on other things like website content/design, logo, and so much more.

       —

       All staff members are open for business 24 hours a day, they are never sick, they do not take vacations, and they are not union members, so never a chance of a strike. Friendly and easy to work with, the key is to learn how to ask the questions in the right way that will provide the answers you are looking for or the guidance you seek.

       —

       We have a page set up for each staff member that members with the proper access can get to when they need to use them for their business activities support. They will remember conversations and extend output, just as the ChatGPT will do (but they are free and you have fewer delays than what I have experienced at times with ChatGPT).

       — 

       There is more, much more, and I urge you to join us (it is free!) and see for yourself and possibly refer others to help them get started or advance their businesses plus earn some affiliate commissions as well while you are at it. We are actively recruiting for new members and affiliates at the moment and the flash sale pricing is a deal that simply can’t be beat in regards to value. 

       —

       See you inside and thanks for the excellent question., If you need more clarification just add it here, the thread will continue and we can discuss. 

       —

       Cheers!

14. I have recently signed up for Wealthy Affiliate. I found you through them so I assume you are a member too. But this seems in competition. Although you seem to be concentrating on AI technolgoy so maybe not so much. To expesive for my blood though. One of the reasons I signed up for WA is because of their cool and very doable pricing sturcture.

    I have done a ton of reseach on affiliate marketing. The log format of your site is typical and hard to get through it all. BUT I am curious about the AI animated guy in the corner. I really like that. How did you do that? With a special program? Chat GPT?

    I have not lerarned ChatGPT yet and hope to take a call in WA before too long.

    Wishing you luck with your venture and at minimum a great fun adventure.

    1. Good Day, Linda!

       First of all, thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to add your thoughts and questions to the comment section of this post. We do value feedback as it offers us the chance to get more details out to the readers and entrepreneurs who stop by.

       —

       I am a member of quite a few different memberships that are related to making money online, marketing, content creation, and even personal development. Each is aligned with my set of interests and hobbies in some cases, so I enjoy and learn from others (and help others on some sites).

       —

       Wealthy Affiliate is indeed one of the membership sites I belong to. Their focus on affiliate marketing is top-notch in regard to training, community, and website development. There are so many other means of building a business online outside of affiliate marketing, and paths to success, however. That is where we come in and differ from the Wealthy Affiliate platform.

       —

       Whereas their focus is mainly on affiliate marketing, we cover 20+ business models (and there are more methods being added all the time as advances in technology such as AI open new opportunities up for the everyman). Additionally, we cover a lot of core competency areas that all business owners will need on a daily or regular basis.

       —

       But the SMART(ER) Business Network goes way beyond that. We provide a means to sell products or services, an ability to secure resources needed for businesses at a cheaper rate than market prices, we have a reference library, a curated set of YouTube-related playlists, archived training and mentoring sessions, premium plugins, themes, and page builders for websites, etc.

       —

        The SMART(ER) AI Staff are yet another point of difference that we offer with our membership. Not only do we have 40 staff members available for use, we also have a set of over 5000 prompts that can be used to make sure that members get the information and content that they need for their business.

       —

       The site you state is hard to get through is likely referring to the academy site. Once you have registered, access is a breeze and we have had no complaints from members so far. If you go to the home page obviously you are going to be seeing the sales page which is intended to provide an overview of the academy.

       —

       In regards to the expense of the membership, I would like to see where you can get lifetime access to 40 AI staff members, a library, coaching, a community, and other resources such as business planners and checklists, lead magnets, etc. for a one-time payment of $99.

       —

       All the memberships and sites that I am a part of have monthly or annual options. Some do have a lifetime plan, but the cost is generally quite high. I have paid as much as $2000 for a set of 10 membership sites in the past. So although I appreciate your observation that our offer is expensive, we do not feel that way at all, nor do our members.

       —

       While affiliate marketing is certainly a viable means to build a business online that you can operate from home or anywhere, there are a multitude of other viable options out there these days. Many will enable you to do both operating using the selected business model (i.e. ECom.Freelancing/Website or Domain Flipping/Prompt Engineer/Social Media Agency, etc.) PLUS add in affiliate marketing for an extra income stream. 

       —

       I wish you the best and if you have any more questions, please ask away. We are right here to provide answers!

15. Hi David!
    AI powered tools are all the rage right now. Smart (ER) Academy, a one stop shop for business solutions is what piques my interest. I have dabbled in AI tools but frankly I am still learning a lot.
    This academy might be what I need to boost my affiliate marketing business. However, I need to see some testimonials or stories of success before I join.
    Does SMART(ER) Academy offer a free trail, like 30-day or so? What about demos of the product in action?
    Keep up the good work,
    G

    1. Hi, Godwin!

       We appreciate your stopping by and also taking the time to provide some feedback on the post and the program described! We do listen and are always trying to improve what we are offering to members and possible members. The comments give us the chance to do that.

       —

       We do have a free trial period of 7 days – it is one of the options to gain access to the Premium level of membership, That level opens 12 of the SMART(ER) AI Staff members to you, and once inside as a member you can quickly access them to try them out. There are also sets of prompts that you can start with, plus training showing and teaching everyone how best to leverage the power that AI offers any business.

       —

       Additionally, as we are building up membership and awareness of the SMART(ER) Business Network, there are also opportunities to earn additional free months of membership access, membership upgrades, and cash prizes for action-takers through our monthly recruiting contests.

       —

       Rules for the monthly contests are included in one of the links at the end of the article, I would suggest checking this out and signing up for that too. You could also earn money if you request and are approved as an affiliate. That is yet another way to profit from the network quickly. The commissions are lifetime and recurring, so you can earn again and again from your referrals that upgrade to a paid membership.

       —

       In regards to testimonials, you will find them scattered throughout the site(s), i.e. on checkout pages and elsewhere. We have helped literally thousands of people over the years advance their careers and businesses, one of the areas of expertise I have is in psychology. In this venue and others, we have worked with people from a broad spectrum of backgrounds, skill sets, ethnicities, and countries. 

       —

       If you have more questions, please add them here and we will reply/get back to you ASAP. Do consider joining us, we offer great value at a low cost, and starting out, no cost at all. That’s a deal you can’t refuse?

16. I’m particularly intrigued by the use of AI technology to support business endeavors. Having over 40 AI staff members trained in various areas is like having a team of experts at your fingertips.

    The SMART Business Community seems like a great place to network, collaborate, and learn from like-minded professionals. I always think building connections and sharing experiences is a critical part in the entrepreneurial world. The member shop at SMART(ER) Academy offers a wide range of resources. Can you highlight a particular product or service from the shop that has made a significant impact on your business?

    1. Good Day, Miadinh!

       Not sure what your full name is, so I will go with the account name you have…Apologies for that! Nice to see you have stopped by to look at the latest post, and I do value your input and feedback. We always try to stay attuned to what our audience is looking for and this helps@

       —

       Indeed, we have found that having all that power of experts for every area of your business is a game-changer or it can be if used properly. It is not a way to avoid work, rather you can do a lot more in a less amount of time, and the results are often better than if you were not using the AI staff…

       —

       The community is another powerful aspect of the SMART(ER) Business Network, you are spot on. As opposed to having it based within Facebook, in a group account, as many do, we have a separate website that is solely focused on building businesses and assisting the entrepreneurs who are all in various stages of building them. It is a private and exclusive community, but free to join,

       —

       Lastly, the point you bring up in reference to the member shop, we have found it is a strong plus for members as well. With any business, there are tools, supplies, materials, checklists, planners, etc. that help you build the content and lead generation systems that every business counts on. Think of it like having a store in a mall – you need foot traffic so you can get them interested in what you are offering and then make sales.

       —

       Many business platforms offer only one or the other piece of the business puzzle, but in our case, we are trying to offer almost everything needed from one network. We even have options for members to list their own products and services to get started earning as quickly as possible. 

       —

       One of the facts of people who start online businesses or try to is that 95% or more fail. Much of that is due to mnot seeing any success early on in their venture, They get disheartened, unmotivated, and they quit. hat could have been will never be,,,

       —

       This is where we excel at. Members can earn through a number of streams such as our monthly contests, working as an affiliate to earn commissions, or even selling products to other entrepreneurs who need what they have. The success comes quicker and they stick with it.   

       —

       Do have a look at the current events with our SMART(ER) Business Network. We have the monthly recruiting contests, the free trial membership, and the affiliate program for starters. The AI staff that are part of the membership comes with training on how to use them effectively for your business and we even have done for you prompts that will help you get started!

17. The SMART(ER) Business Network’s use of AI is intriguing, especially considering its application in various business aspects like SEO, marketing, and even life coaching. I’m particularly keen on the personalized approach that the platform offers as I’ve often found that one-size-fits-all methods rarely address individual complexities. As someone in the life coaching sector myself, I’m interested in how the AI coaching compares to human coaches in terms of empathy and actionable insights.

    Could you share more about how these AI coaches are trained? Do they adhere to any specific coaching models or philosophies, like Tony Robbins’ methods that I’m certified in? And, how does your platform ensure a human touch in AI coaching?

    Reply

    1. Hello, Katy!

       Wow, it is an honor to have a trained coach stop by and provide some feedback on our fledgling SMART(ER) Business Network overview! We certainly are appreciative and of course, the same applies to all folks that are paying attention to the post too!

       —

       The real human aspect of coaching cannot ever be completely replaced, in my opinion. Perhaps I am a bit biased, as a coach and mentor for decades now, the power of AI still is not the same as eyeball-to-eyeball (or close to that, i.e. small group counseling) contact.

       —

       There are some areas where it can be effective, though. Perhaps in some preliminary queries or information gathering for further discussion is a use I think, and depending on the type of coaching you offer, it can help get appointments, lead prospects to the right programs, and even provide some basic answers that will help people. 

       —

       Many jobs are largely going to be eliminated, but not coaching. Copywriters, digital product creators, graphic designers, website designers. etc. need to figure out how to incorporate AI into their functions to offer more value or be left in the dust, I think….

       —

       The coaches are trained on information gathered across the internet, and we have some that are trained on influencers, i.e. everything that is available and published across the internet. That means essentially you will get similar results to what they would provide if querying them face to face. 

       —

       Some are generic staff members, who have learned from all content across the internet that relates to their area of expertise. So far, we have had excellent results from the AI Staff we have. Also, they continue to learn as time goes on and they have new information on which to base their replies on.

       —

       Definitely, for most types of businesses, AI staff can be leveraged to a large extent and they can provide expertise and replace a lot of employees. This is going to disrupt many areas of society in a major way, much as the internet and the rise of social networks have.  

       —

       Our network covers the human touch through weekly coaching sessions for the general membership, as well as additional sessions for affiliates. These are live generally and are recorded and archived for viewing later so members who cannot attend can still benefit.

       —

       Additionally, we have premium-level coaching programs available. I regularly conduct local sessions with small groups, and we are carrying this over to the network and will do these using Zoom or similar to connect everyone. We also have 1-1 coaching available, and that offers the most personal human-to-human touch, of course.

       —

       My background to a degree (or better said with the degree?) is in psychology, so I have been working with people for many years and even decades now. I have done this in clinical settings (years ago now) and in real-life settings, while in the military for 25 years and as a civilian for 25+ years. 

       —

       Please do ask any additional questions you may have, always nice to hear from experts, and if you would like to get an additional stream of income started, please consider joining us and trying out the AI staff yourself to see how they might work for your business. We do have that free trial (7 days) and if you refer others to the network, you can earn additional free months of access and even upgraded memberships.

18. This is a highly informative and engaging post, highlighting the myriad of benefits and resources available through the SMART(ER) Academy. The integration of AI technology to assist in various business domains is particularly intriguing, offering a cutting-edge approach to entrepreneurial endeavors. The lifetime access for a one-time fee of $99 seems like an incredible deal, considering the wealth of knowledge, expert support, and a thriving community of like-minded professionals that one can access. The personalized coaching and mentoring add a layer of individualized support, ensuring that members receive guidance that is tailored to their unique business needs. The member shop and the monthly recruiting contests are additional perks that enhance the value proposition of joining the academy.

    1. Hi, Dreamgirl193!

       Thanks for the visit and the feedback, definitely always look for this when we post new content, especially for this one. The launch is getting started for the SMART(ER) Business Network, and we really could use feedback to improve. Your comment is valuable to us!

       —

       You have covered pretty much all the bases of what is on offer, and hopefully, many others will be thinking the same as you…namely, you see the value in what is on offer! We have put a huge amount of time and effort into the network and websites.

       —

       Using our own experiences online with business, we have attempted to cover gaps in what others are offering and do what they do in a better way. Always there are areas that can be improved upon, and you can rest assured that we will be looking for additional features and content/training/tools/resources to provide the best possible solution for members as they start or grow their businesses.

       Now the key is getting the word out to people out there across the globe, so the contests we have implemented will take place monthly, and the radically reduced pricing will stay in place short-term for the $99 offer and longer-term, we will still have rock-bottom pricing compared to the competition. 

       —

       I do hope that we can garner the support and [artici[pation of people like yourself, who I am sure could leverage the power that is available through the network to exponentially expand their business using the assets as a member and also to earn commissions as affiliates.

19. Hi Dave! This is a great concept! Can you tell me more about how the AI staff members in the SMART(ER) Business Network assist entrepreneurs in different areas of their business? How can a new online entrepreneur with no experience leverage these AI resources to expedite their learning curve and business growth?

    1. Good Morning Michael!

       Thanks for stopping by and leaving some feedback. It is appreciated and helpful. It gives us the chance to expand on the content of the article to provide yet more clarification to others who stop by and will perhaps read through the comments and replies…

       —

       The SMART(ER) AI Staff are new additions to the network and are the latest innovations/additions that offer the company a unique selling point from a business perspective. From the perspective of the member who is using them on a daily basis, they are game-changers.

       —

       We go through the use of these AI Staff members using some training that is found inside the academy, and we also provide a huge number of DFY (done for you) prompts that are great and effective starting off points for use of them.  This helps to figure out how they work and how to get the results you are looking for.

       —

       Additionally, we offer a set of courses generally titled “Getting Started” that include all the basics from determining goals, options for business models to use, research to see what might be the right noche of the business model, and finally, we have training on how to write a personal business plan.

       —

       There are areas of that initial process where the AI staff can be helpful, i.e. research, career counseling, writing a business plan, a marketing plan, and even a content plan for the new business. The AI staff are all trained on their individual areas of expertise so they will be able to quickly get the information needed and provide output for you.

       —

       Instead of you having to do all this from scratch, the AI staff will have it done for you quickly. As an example, I was able to create a series of 101 SMART(ER) Business Network video scripts of tips in 2 hours. Each is between 2 to 3 minutes long, and is intended to serve as a daily dose of motivation-type posts that members or video site visitors can tap into every day,

       —

       This amount of output would have taken a week or more if I had not had the AI staff there to put it all together. Now that is ready, the next step is to actually create the videos, Again I am using AI to prepare them based on the text scripts, and each one takes about 10 minutes to complete. Without AI, that would have been at least an hour (per video!)…

       —

       Please consider signing up for a free account! We still have a few free one-year access accounts to the Platinum membership level accounts. You can also request approval as an affiliate and earn commissions when your referrals upgrade to a paid plan. Also, there are monthly recruiting contests where you can earn additional rewards and cash prizes.

       —

       See you inside hopefully!

       Cheers!

20. Thanks Dave,
    I’d heard about this Smart(er) Business Network so am glad to find your post in search to learn more about it.
    Reading through the FGAQ’s and comments, the range of AI assistants is really comprehensive.
    Are those AI assistants actually people e.g. the 19. Nutritionist and 8 & 9 Accountant?

    I can see the profiles of your 8 people so assume you have a team of 40 or so real people experts working behind the scenes?

    Very impressive that you have set up this community to help people!

    1. Hi, John…

       Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to drop a comment! We always look for feedback and it helps us as we further develop the network and the various features and services that members gain access to. We do appreciate it…

       —

       We do have a staff or team of support people behind the network, yes. They take care of websites, admin duties, HR, accounting, marketing, affiliates, etc. but the SMART(ER) AI Staff members you see are all virtual trained chatbots that are based on ChatGPT 3.5 and 4 in some cases…

       —

       They were all “trained” using all the information available across the internet for the areas of focus they represent and provide output for. In using them, they are every bit as useful as a person on the payroll. They have been very helpful in us increasing our productivity by a factor of 10. No kidding…

       —

       They are planning all my campaigns for social media and email marketing, they are preparing YouTube scripts that are top-notch, and so much more. We are adding in external AI support for voiceovers, video creation, and for marketing materials. 

       —

       Basically, I calculate that we are saving at least 5 full-time workers, and up to 10 if I consider part-time workers (i.e. VAs)…Most definitely these are game-changers that are going to change how all of us go about creating and building businesses, both small work-from-home operations all the way up to the large corporations.

       —

       The way I see it, you can go with the flow, learn how to use them, and incorporate them into your business operations, or you can put your head into the sand and become irrelevant over time and lose the business due to the competitors that are using AI.

       —

       Our academy is going to enable members to tap into the power they provide for a one-time low price with the current sale we have ongoing and save the cost of an Open AI account at $20 a month minimally. We have the training, we have the DFY (done for you) prompts, we have the use cases, and we have weekly coaching to help members maximize the power they now have for use with their businesses.

       —

       We do go a few steps further too. More than the business activities, there are also AI Staff experts who have been trained in cooking (Professional Chef), Nutrition, Fitness, and Career Coaching, even a therapist is available for Platinum members! All this for a one-time fee of $99 for the first 200 members, then the price does go up.

       —

       We want to stay at the cutting edge of online learning academies, and in addition, we want to make it possible for members to gain access to almost everything they need to grow their businesses. We also have a member shop to help them get started selling their products and services…

       —

       There are other things in the pipeline too. We have a YouTube curated page with playlists of related subjects from some of the top channel developers, a reference library, and a robust featured community that is NOT a Facebook Group with all the distractions the social platforms have.

       —

       Thanks for stopping by and do consider registering for a free 7-day trial and take us for a test run. We have moved our LMS site, rebuilt our community site, and toof up the member shop recently and are still in the building phase. In total, we have over 500 courses to move over, and we have 12 shops for the public that are either deployed or will be soon. 

       —

       See you inside!

       Cheers!

21. I’m in awe of all of this. The fact that you have all these things covered under one product is pretty neat stuff. I do wonder that when people sign up for membership are they guided along easily as to where to go first? With all the resources provided how do people not get misdirected to the wrong area where they might not be ready yet? Having AI helpers is a really great concept. Hoping to hear more on this soon.

    Thanks

    1. Hi Jason…

       Glad you stopped by and always good to get some feedback! That is important to us so we can continue to improve! 

       —

       Most certainly with everything that is included with the SMART(ER) Business Network, it could be easy to get lost as someone might in a big mall. This is why we have several virtual roadmap points for new members especially, that can help get them oriented and pointed in the right direction, depending on what they are after.

       —

       The community, shop, and support sites (2) are separate websites, so that lessens the load on the academy site somewhat. Links are prevalent within all the sites to navigate between them. Also, we have other external shop sites that link back to the academy and community sites.

       —

       After registration and access points are opened, members most likely would start with the “Getting Started” courses, which are intended to help them decide on the business model, the approach, and particular niche if appropriate and even help them create a business plan and sets of tasks to accomplish on a regular basis to turn the plan into reality.   

       —

       We also operate the affiliate program from the academy site, so that could cause confusion if members are not aware of how to access things. Once they have requested and been approved to be an affiliate, we provide a login and dashboard that is unique to them. e do provide instructions upon sign-up on how to access everything.

       —

       Of course, we also have the community and members will help one another out too, as will the SMART(ER) Team or myself. Between all these things, we generally have not had a problem so far. But you do bring up a good point and we will be watching for this.  

       —

       Reference the AI workers (staff) – yes indeed, these are game-changers for all the business models that an online business owner (or even an offline or hybrid business owner) could ask for. Imagine getting a bunch of full-time workers that you can assign tasks to and not have to pay them for. Yes, big advantage that all business owners are going to have to adapt to.  

       —

       I look forward to seeing you on the inside, As we grow this network, add to the features, and work out any bugs we would love to have you on board to help us make the changes and improvements for all of our members so they can build their businesses faster and more efficiently.

22. Hey there thanks for this comprehensive review on SMART(ER) Business, I have seen it a few times in my searches for entrepreneurship courses, and wow what a detailed review I landed on. How long is the $99 for lifetime membership going to be effective? Right now I am broke as a bad joke, but I sure do not want to miss out on this great price. 

    With all that is offered are you sure it is only $99 for a lifetime membership? They aren’t going to just decide to limit the access to us 99ers for life, are they?

    I have not had much experience with AI so when I saw there were courses for getting to know and use it, I was pretty excited. Having access to one-on-one coaching is priceless too. There is so much it is hard to remember all the good things that caught my attention, but that is what my bookmark bar is for :), this article has definitely found a spot on mine.

    Thanks for this comprehensive review, I will be back to refresh my memory and sign up soon.

    1. Hi, Stacie…

       The price of $99 is for 200 memberships, then it will go up to $199.99 or $250.00 (2 x $125). These are lifetime prices for sure. Each month there will be 500 to 600 slots opened at the flash sale price, which means that if you cannot get in now, you will be able to at some point, even if at a higher price.

       —

       There is another option though where you can take advantage of the free access to the Premium level of membership, which provides 12 AI staff members to work with for 7 days. Also, you can sign up for our recruiting contests which are held monthly, and earn rewards for referrals and cash for those referrals that create a free account and later upgrade to a paid plan.  

       —

       The link for the contest, which starts at the first of each month and runs throughout the month, is above right at the end of the article. Can’t miss it! So using the free access, plus the recruiting contest you can earn up to a year of free membership! Check out the rules and get started is what I recommend!

       —

       The limited offer for $99 is intended to kick off the platform and get some members inside. We are transitioning from an older member site, plus moving an older community site, and the resource shop for members mentioned in the article is a brand new site collated from all our other shops and created solely for members’ use… 

       —

       So getting the word out and moving everyone is like herding cats! The recruiting contests, the flash sales, and the other programs we are promoting are all intended to get the visibility of the platforms raised with the target audiences and also get activity back to where it was and then some with all the new features and innovations.

       —

       The AI courses here (some) are free to access, just register and get access to these. My recommendation is to sign up for the 7-day free trial, tap into the free training courses (like 14 of them!), and also check out the AI staff. While you are at it, sign up for the recruiting contest and also request approval as an affiliate.

       —

       I know all this sounds complicated but it is not really. One step at a time. Make sure that you also register an account with the SMART(ER) Business Community, as we put out a lot of information using that platform for members. It is free to join, by the way! The links for all these sites are at the end of the article above.

You have been doing this a long time and I would like to take advantage of your online experience.

    1. Hello, Alan!

       Thanks for popping through and nice to hear that you enjoyed the site. There is an opportunity here to earn some money if you evaluate what is on offer with the introductory post for the SMART(ER) Business Network. The kind words are appreciated though for sure.

       —

       You mention that you have a niche and products. I would assume that you are creating reviews, marketing materials, and social media for the platforms that you frequent and where your target audience members are, and perhaps you are even creating videos for the niche.

       —

       This is where you can tap into the power that the academy offers and also the resource shop that is available to members. The training for the AI staff and prompts that help you get the results needed mean that you can create more content in less time, and it will be done by trained experts.

       —

       I would say that whether you decide to get such AI help somewhere else and pay a substantial sum of money for it potentially or you secure access to AI staff that the SMART(ER) Academy offers at no additional cost, you need to do something.   

       —

       The facts are that the competitors are moving in this direction, so to stay competitive, you really need to do the same. It is hard enough these days to get attention to your niche products or services, whatever that may be, but when others bring the force of AI into play, your chances of success fall precipitously.

       —

       Do have a look and it costs nothing for a free trial. If you register for the recruiting contest, you can earn rewards of extensions of free memberships, and while you have this membership access, you can tap into the full power of the SMART(ER) AI Staff to see how they can help you get more done faster and better.

24. Hello SMART(ER) Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I recently came across your SMART(ER) Business Network and was intrigued by the opportunities it offers to entrepreneurs. I have a few questions and would greatly appreciate your insights:

    Additional Costs for Tools and Resources: Could you please clarify whether there are additional fees for accessing tools, done-for-you lead magnets, and other resources available within the member shop? Understanding the pricing structure for these resources would be helpful.

    Training and Trainers: I’m curious about the types of training available within SMART(ER) and who the trainers involved are. Are there specific course titles or topics covered? Additionally, will there be continuous updates to the training content?

    Platform Strategies: It would be great if you could provide more information about the strategies employed within the SMART(ER) Business Network. What sets your platform apart, and how do these strategies benefit members in achieving their business goals?

    I’m genuinely interested in learning more about your network and how it can benefit entrepreneurs like myself. Thank you in advance for taking the time to address these queries.

    Reply

    1. Hi, Lynn!

       First of all, thanks for stopping by and having a thorough look at what is on offer here, and then taking the additional step to lay out your questions in such an organized manner in the comment section. This is helpful for other visitors to the site and article. It will provide further clarification, always a good thing! 

       —

       So, below I will go through each of the points or questions one by one and if you have further questions or comments, please do revert and ask away! This is a work-in-progress network, meaning that we are constantly looking for ways to improve, and getting feedback and suggestions is a powerful part of that process!

       —

       LEAD MAGNET KITS 

       The membership comes with a set of lead magnet kits, which consist of a 15-30 page report, graphics, a done-for-you opt-in page, and a set of email swipes that you can use to build your email marketing campaigns. They are ready to go, with minor modifications you can publish them and start collecting names and emails. 

       —

       Depending on the plan, automatically the new member will gain access to a set of these. We have 40, 60, or 100 of these kits for the various levels of membership. With the Flash Sale, the highest level of membership is on offer for $99 and the member will get 100 of these kits.  

       —

       The lead magnet kits retail in our external shop for $8.95 each, so this is already a considerable saving when securing lifetime access for $99 one time! This is just one example, however…

       —

       Another example: Within the member resource shop, with the 10% discount coupon that all members can use, plus the bundle offers we publish regularly, the cost could be less, perhaps as low as $4 per lead magnet kit, but still a considerable valuable bonus for new members (there are more such bonuses as well, the total value is high!).  

       —

       OTHER TOOLS, RESOURCES, SERVICES

       The above is just one of many types of resources we have available for members as they build their businesses. We also have things such as business checklist volumes, social media kits, business planners and journals, video support items, swipe files (email samples), templates, images, graphics, prompt sets for AI use, etc.

       —

       The pricing for these items is normally on a per-item/set/package basis, but often we launch bundle offers where the cost is considerably less. These are things that normally you would buy for your business externally and at a higher price when you consider our lower prices and the 10% discount coupon that is available to all members.

       —

       In regards to tools, we have a wide variety of them available for automation, marketing, and productivity. Everything from the AI Staff members to premium WordPress plugins, themes, and page builders. We have many that help businesses track their data so they can evaluate and take corrective measures when indicated, improve SEO using the number one WordPress plugin called RankMath, and so much more…

       —

       Altogether, we have over 1000 tools when WordPress is factored in. These come at varying costs, but all are priced well below the common market prices (and again there is that 10% discount). We often run bundle offers for tools as well. Do you need all these tools to have a successful business? No. But…as you scale up you will look at ways to do more with the resources that you have, i.e. time, money, and results. Then you will want to add some of these to your arsenal of resources to build or maintain your business.

       —

       That is where we come in. We do not have every tool that you will need, but we have most of them, There are things like Autoresponder services, some advanced marketing tools, or AI tools that have specific advanced features and uses that you might have to spend money on. But we save you lots of money and time with what we have, and some are free, some are on offer at a low cost. 

       —

       Using the tools we have, members will be able to leverage their time and expand their business much faster and at less cost. It saves time for procurement too, as many of the things needed by all online business owners are right there for them. There is no need to take a lot of time looking externally and paying more.

       —

       TRAINING & TRAINERS

       Good questions here as well, thank you! We have a combination of training mainly covering 20+ business models and many of what I call core competency courses. At the end state, there will be 500 + courses. We are slowly transitioning from our old platform to the new one you can check out using the link at the end of the article above.

       —

       The business courses cover some of the most popular models and where statistically entrepreneurs have had the most success. Models such as affiliate marketing, drop shipping, YouTube channel monetization, podcasting, coaching, teaching, and arts & crafts, are just a few that we cover. There are many others that are trending or ones that represent short-term opportunities that might fit the main thrust of the business.  

       —

       The core competency courses teach skills that every business owner needs these days, whether operating an online, offline, or hybrid business. Everything from sales funnels to copywriting, from lead generation to email marketing, and many subjects between. Right now we are starting with 40 main important subjects, but there are literally hundreds that we will cover over the coming years.

       —

       The advantage of being able to get started with one business model and having access to training for other models at your fingertips (plus having other entrepreneurs that are using the new business model) means that the entrepreneur can add the new model to their operations at times if feasible and advised. Another stream of income…

       —

       The courses are combinations of videos, course books, audio recordings, course support materials, and at times master classes that are recorded live-stream sessions that complement the course. There are all three sorts of training found within the academy. The trainers are well-versed in the subject they are teaching generally, from the feedback we have received. 

       —

       To round out the courses, we have case studies, a reference library, and YouTube-curated playlists of related videos from channel developers that will help the members get inspiration, further guidance, and other perspectives (never a bad thing?).

       —

       Lastly, there is the community where members can discuss the courses and training, plus tap into the live and recorded weekly sessions for coaching and mentoring that they have access to. So most definitely, we want to have as many ways for members to soak up the information we have out there for them.  

       —

       SMART(ER) BUSINESS NETWORK STRATEGY FOR MEMBERS

       Our position is that every entrepreneur has their own set of circumstances, they are unique. One of the reasons that so many fail is that when they are trying to build a business, they force themselves into a model that is not suitable for their situation.

       —

       Statistically, the success rate is not good, and many of the program developers or owners will not mention that when they promote their platforms or programs. We try to address this right at the start of members joining us. In spite of the best intentions, too many run into obstacles that cause them to lose interest and focus, and they walk away before they give themselves a chance to succeed. 

       —

       There are steps you can take to improve the success rate…For instance…

       —

       We have a set of courses we place into our “Getting Started” category so members can first figure out what might suit them best if they are not sure. Goals, aspirations, skills, resources, interests, and time are a few factors I can think of off the top of my head that we take members through…

       —

       Once they have a clear idea of what they can pursue that fits with the goals etc. they can then look at business models and niches if applicable. We walk them through the research process, and then the business plan process. Lastly, we help them implement, measure, and adjust their plan so it becomes a reality.  

       —

       BOTTOM LINE

       Every person is unique and needs more than a cookie-cutter solution that too often results in failure because it does not allow for all factors to be considered when presenting online business options to prospective members of their programs.

       —

       Our approach is that we help set out initially what is realistic and what might fit the entrepreneur, then lead them through the planning and implementation and finally the growth and exit strategy phases of their business adventure.  We provide as many of the tools, training, resources, and support as possible and at a reasonable price so their chances of success are higher than the averages.

       —

       The multi-faceted approach allows every entrepreneur to feel confident about what they are entering into when they join us and get access to the things they need to have success as early on in the process of building their business as possible within the platform. That will then provide the inspiration (along with continued support from us) for them to follow through with more success. 

       —

       Hope to see you inside! We still have some free annual memberships available – with academy registration, I will upgrade eligible free or free trial accounts to Platinum level membership for 1 year, a $1000 regular priced value!  

       —

       Cheers!

25. This blog post is filled with exciting opportunities for entrepreneurs and business owners! It’s impressive how the SMART(ER) Business Network combines AI technology, expert-led courses, a supportive community, personalized coaching, and a member shop to empower its members. The flash sale with a one-time membership fee of just $99 is indeed a fantastic deal.

    My question for you is: How do the ongoing monthly recruiting contests work, and what kind of rewards and prizes can members expect to win by participating in these contests?

    Reply

    1. Hi there, Hanna!

       Super to see you stop by and read through the article, and let me answer your question right now! 

       —

       BTW, we do feel that the flash sale is a good deal. The reason to offer this limited quantity low price is that we want to get the word out to the population(s) and audiences that could benefit. We are willing to forego some short-term profits for long-term success. OK.. let’s move on…

       —

       Reference the recruiting contest that we run monthly…

       —

       (1) There are rewards for referrals who sign up for the contest and those who sign up for the free 7-day trial that we have on offer.  These consist of additional months of free network access and can be as much as a year of Platinum access (with $1000 at regular prices).

       —

       (2) There are cash prizes for 2 categories: First, the number of referrals that sign up for the free 7-day trial membership, and second, for the sales volume of referrals that upgrade to a paid membership. If you look at the recruiting contest page you will see the terms and conditions and also the cash prize amounts.

       —

       These contests will be running monthly and each month we start the clock again. That means all the winners and referrals are purged and everyone has a chance to win again. To best leverage the contest, there are several things you can do…

       —

       Sign up as an affiliate, become a paid member, and then you can earn commissions from referrals that upgrade, you can compete in the affiliate contests that we also conduct monthly, and it is the same situation – the most referrals that sign up for an account, the most sales, and recognition within the community. We award cash prizes for this too!

26. Wow it’s amazing! The Smarter Academy represents a mix of training and innovation that AI has to offer. I see that you don’t fear AI unlike some others. And that’s a good thing! But I’m a little worried because some of us rely enjoy talking to a real human being. But I really like the concept and I’ll talk about it around me. I do believe that everybody must know how to start a business on the Internet.

       Yes, AI is like any other tool out there, but perhaps more powerful. It can help in so many areas of a small business, and once you start implementing our SMART(ER) AI Staff into your operations, you realize just how powerful they are. You can get 10x the productivity and then can expand your business much faster and get better results.

       —

       These staff members have been trained with all the information available across the internet, so they are the experts that we all wish for. Now, of course, you have to use some common sense when deploying them, the search engines are on the lookout for purely AI-generated content.

       —

       Based on my own experience to this point, it is not hard to make some minor editing changes to add your own personality and have the result be considered 100% original. However, there will be those who abuse the power I am sure. Within the academy, the community. plus when we have our coaching sessions, we try to emphasize how to use the AI staff effectively without getting penalized by the search engines.  

       —

       The facts are that the competition is using these now on a daily basis and if you do not adapt and add them to your operations, you are falling behind. Adapt or perish is what I have always said., and I think it is very true when it comes to using AI in your business. 

       —

       You are also right that for all those who want to start a business (and more and more people wanting to these days), having a path to getting from a dream to reality is a help rather than striking out on your own with no preparation or planning.

       —

       Also, there is no one-size-fits-all solutions that will work for everyone. Different interests, different skills, different time availability, and so on all will have an effect on the type of business to start and build out. There are literally dozens of options out there. It can get confusing and overwhelming.

       —

       This is why with our approach we first address having the entrepreneur figure out the goals, the interests, the dreams, and the reality before selecting a particular business model to focus on. Once that is in place and clear, the member can then look at options, do the research, and come up with a plan to get the business off the ground.

       —

       Once implementation starts, the data collected can then guide the next moves over and above the planned objectives and tasks involved in carrying out the daily routines of the business. That is where we also come in to help. We provide advice and feedback.   

       —

       The bottom line is that there is no fear needed for AI. It is another tool that will instead allow one person or a few to have the same power as a larger company having many employees. I see that as a true game-changer for many small business owners and a plus.

       —

       Do consider joining us. we still have a few free 1-year memberships available and even without these, a 7-day free trial. Also, the recruiting contests that we are running monthly mean that you can add to the free access for up to a year with no money at all required for membership!

27. Hi Coach Dave, thank you for your informative blog post about Smarter Academy. I was impressed by the features and benefits of this online learning platform. Something that caught my attention was the “Affiliate program and support for its JV partners and the JV opportunities that are mentioned in “The 20 TOP Reasons to Join”. I am curious to know more about this program, how it works, and how members can take advantage of it.

    I appreciate your time and effort in sharing your project and vision with us!

    1. Good day, Pablo!

       First of all, thanks for taking the time to drop a comment and ask a question reference the SMART(ER) Business Network. I will certainly answer the question as best I can, If you need further clarification, so drop a replay below mine and we will add to the answer!

       —

       The affiliate program is a two-tiered program. Paid members get an automatic 5% bump in all commissions acros the board. We have generally three categories of products or services for commission rates, and these are low-ticket. mid-ticket, and high-ticket. 

       —

       The low and medium ticket items generally offer a 20% commission rate for non-paying members and 25% for paying members. Mid-level products and services vary as to commission rates (between 10% to 20% with a 5% bump for paying members), while high-ticket items generally earn 10 % with a bump to 15% for paid members. 

       —

       These are cumulative, lifetime, and recurring commissions that are valid for all your referrals. This means that you can earn again and again as your referral purchases more products or services from our program. They may buy a lifetime membership and you earn a commission, and later they might get a DFY (done for you) bundle service package or any other tool or resource for their business. You earn a commission when that happens. Again and again.  

       —

       Now, it does not stop there. We also have a training and coaching program, and a set of marketing materials to include bonus products that will help you as you promote the platform to your website visitors and to your subscribers.  We want you to have confidence in what you are promoting so we work hard to provide you with what you need and also to have a robust viable offer for your prospects. 

       —

       We also are running monthly recruiting contests that complement the affiliate program. You offer entrants the chance to win free memberships and when they sign up for a free trial, and at a later point upgrade, you earn a commission as an affiliate. You also earn free extensions as a reward if you are a free member, and you can compete for cash prizes in both the contest and the affiliate program.  

       —

       Details can be found on our academy site and also on the recruiting contest page. Links for both are above at the end of the article. If you do have any further questions, just ask! See you inside hopefully!

28. Hey, thanks for sharing this exciting news about the SMART(ER) Academy opening its doors for members. It’s great to see such a comprehensive offering for entrepreneurs and business owners.

    I have a question based on the content: With the one-time membership fee of just $99 for lifetime access during the FLASH SALE, how does SMART(ER) plan to support and engage its members in the long term? Are there any ongoing updates or events to keep members engaged and up-to-date with the latest trends in business?

    Reply

    1. Hello, Stratos!

       Thanks for popping through and taking the time to leave some feedback. We do appreciate it and use the input to further refine what we offer to members so they have the best experience and results possible with their business operations. 

       —

       In regards to your question, I can confidently say that the members will be getting a steady stream of new courses (we have 500 in the queue!), resources (we are adding lead magnet kits, business checklists, planners, journals, and other materials monthly), and within the community and the academy sites, discussions on what is trending and working now in regards to business models and tactics is discussed on a daily basis.

       —

       We do the weekly sessions for members, two actually. One is for general membership and the second is for affiliates. In these, we discuss what is trending in the marketplace, as we collate and curate some of the best content from YouTube, and other forum and membership sites. These are recorded and archived for viewing by members who are not able to attend the sessions.  

       —

       All this is also presented in short daily emails to members and through a weekend newsletter which has more content. The community, the coaching, the emails, and the newsletters are all avenues we use to get the latest information out to members. 

       —

       We know that all people are on different schedules and in different time zones so this approach allows them to get access to the information in a manner that works best for them. We are looking at adding a regular podcast as well, so people can download or listen wherever they may be when they have the time. 

       —

       Innovation and improvement is what it is all about. See you inside hopefully!

       Cheers!

29. This announcement about the SMART(ER) Business Network’s flash sale is certainly intriguing, but it raises a few questions:

    Can you provide more details about what the SMART(ER) Business Network actually offers? What kind of content, resources, and tools are included in this membership?

    You mentioned that the regular price for this membership starts at $1000 per year. Could you elaborate on what makes it worth this price point?

    What distinguishes SMART(ER) from other business networks or platforms available in the market?

    Thank you for your article.

    1. Hi, Demi…

       Thanks for stopping by and also for the questions. We always look for feedback and when we can answer questions it gives us a chance to provide further clarification to our visitors and prospective members. A good thing!

       —

       As it says on the box, we offer training on a number of business models to enable members to plan, implement, and then grow their own businesses. We do not focus on just one business model, as there are a number of ways to build a viable business online these days.

       —

       There are some basic skills covered in other courses that all business owners need to attain if they do not have them to successfully operate a business. Things like sales funnels, copywriting, lead generation, email marketing, and using tools such as Zapier or others such as autoresponders are all important to have a good business operation that you can profit from and grow over time. 

       —

       Tools that are included with the package include an automation tool for content and social media posting  and an email marketing tool to help increase open and click-through rates. There are any number of other tools available within our shop, and as the member builds their program,, they may want to tap into one or more if they need it. 

       — 

       We also have a basic set of lead magnet kits, social media 30-day kits, and business checklists. and DFY prompts for use with our SMART(ER) AI Staff. These come with a membership, and depending on the package, you will get different quantities. From time to time, we also add in other bonuses. These have a ton of value – go out and see what a lead magnet costs on Fiverr, and that often is without an opt-in page, copy, and email swipes. 

       —

       Your next question as to what makes the $1000 price reasonable…Good one. Have a look at some similar platforms and see what they charge per month, Many are listed at $99 a month or more, and with the features and benefits that are included with our network, the $1000 price is a bargain.

       —

        Of course, the $99 flash sale is an introductory offer from us, to get the program off the ground, and that price will not be around long. The action-takers are getting the deal of a lifetime! All the items I covered above based on your questions do not even address what is perhaps the most impactful feature that makes the $1000 a year membership a deal…

       —

       There are 40 SMART(ER) AI Staff members included with the $99 lifetime access membership package. These are trained members, each in their specialty, using all the information available from across the internet up to 2021 I think. There is a level that offers live internet access too, but that is a different offer completely.  

       —

       Add to these SMART(ER) AI staff members a set of over 5000 DFY (done for you) prompts and a set of courses that will teach you how best to leverage these staff members and the other AI programs that are in use these days, and you can start to see just how much value is there in the membership… 

       —

       This is all cutting-edge stuff, and we are on the lookout for new trends that member can possibly use (or avoid) for their businesses. We do the heavy lifting when it comes to scoping out the internet, combing it for information and tips they can use right now.

       —

       Add to all this even more value with weekly live-streamed coaching sessions…We have one for the affiliates and one for the general membership. How many other platforms offer this at $1000 a year? Few…The idea is that we can help people get through the tough points that will arise as they build their online or offline businesses…

       —

       If I had to narrow it down as to what distinguishes us from the competition, it is that we offer a path for entrepreneurs who want to pursue a business that fits their particular circumstances. Everyone is not cut out to do affiliate marketing, drop-shipping, freelancing, etc.  

       —

       They will have a getting-started set of courses to help them determine their goals and interests, their skills, their passion, and then the options that mary up to these. Once that is in place, we help with the research, the data evaluation, and business plan preparation. Finally, we help them get the plan turned into reality. 

       —

       A lot of platforms provide a piece of the puzzle of starting a business. We provide virtually all the pieces or links to the additional external pieces they will need, all in one place, and at prices that are going to save them many hundreds of dollars and wasted hours figuring out what to do. 

       —

       So there you have it! If you have more questions, please reply to the thread and I will get back to you! The questions you had were good ones and they have good answers too! See you inside! We still have a few free one-year memberships available and the monthly recruiting contest is ongoing. The next one starts in a few days!

       Cheers!

30. The opening of the Smarter Academy to new members presents an exhilarating opportunity for those eager to enhance their knowledge and skills. With its wide range of courses, this academy promises to provide enriching learning experiences to all who join. This is wonderful to hear for the new entrepreneurs who are just starting off.

    I’m curious to discover what sets Smarter Academy apart from other educational institutions. Are there advanced teaching approaches or new resources in store to ensure a genuinely transformative and rewarding learning experience for its members? Also, how is it different than WA’s program?

    Reply

    1. Hi, Mike!

       Thanks for stopping by and also adding a comment and asking your questions. We always appreciate the chance to provide further clarification to prospective members of the SMART(ER) Business Network! Let’s get to answering them…

       —

       What sets us apart is that we do not focus on a single path to follow for students or entrepreneurs wanting to develop and build out a business that they can lead, grow, and earn a living from. We recognize that there are 1000+ paths to this, and depending on a person’s position, desires, resources, and grit, there will be different models that fit and some that do not.

       —

       Rather than trying to fit a square peg into a round hole, as many platforms seem to emphasize, we provide a litany of viable business model options, and as members decide what they may want to do while going through a series of courses to determine what he goals are, and what is possible, based on their situation, they can then pursue the business mode;l that fits.

       — 

       That is not the end of the story, however. We help them learn how to do the necessary research, and then come up with a written business plan that can serve as a template as their dream goes from paper to reality. Even more so, we also provide training on the many skills that are required to operate their business.

       —

       There are certain skills that all business owners need to know and use, on top of the particular ones needed for the business model they pursue, and we teach them these skills. There are so many that it cannot be all taken in in a week, a month, or longer…

       —

       Some will be needed as the business grows, some will only be used sporadically, and what we offer is 24/7 access to the courses, the community members providing feedback, and the SMART(ER) team assisting in their journey…They can get the help they need as they need it and when they need it…

       —

       On top of the training itself, there are also many tools and resources that are required to operate an online business. Here again, we stand out in that we offer many such helpful resources, some that come with the membership package, and some that are available for a low price in the exclusive member shop.  

       —

       Things like done-for-you lead magnet kits, that have the opt-in page, the copy, the email swipes, and the lead magnet plus all graphics ready to go. Lead generation is an important task for all businesses, whether they are brick-and-mortar operations or online businesses. 

       —

       This saves time, wasted effort, stress levels, and money for members. They do not need to buy a lot of external stuff that they do not need or will not use (known as shiny object syndrome by some). They can get what they need when they need it at a reasonable price. 

       —

       What we have is a wide range of products, materials, and tools to help with automation, marketing, & productivity tasks that all businesses have to deal with on a day-to-day basis. From content to marketing to sales funnels, we have solutions for members that are not going to break the bank.

       —

       Other innovations or points of difference include a weekly newsletter chock full of news about internet marketing, a reference library, curated related YouTube playlists, and the exclusive and private SMART Business Community. The last thing is perhaps the best point of difference: The SMART(ER) AI Staff that comes with membership.

       —

       These are really game-changers for all business owners, no matter the business model they may be using to build their own business.  They can do the work of a full-time employee (each of them!) and leveraging them is going to allow the small business owner to have the capacity to do the same things much bigger companies do.

       —

       We also have the coaching and mentoring that is offered regularly within the community and during weekly sessions that we live stream for members to get their questions answered or to cover a particular subject. These are archived for later use and we are looking at how we can possibly make them even more useful, i.e. adding summaries so members can quickly find information on the particular subject they looking for.

       — 

       Reference the last question you had, how it differs from the Wealthy Affiliate platform…I hope that reading through this answer you can see some differences. The Wealthy Affiliate platform has been around for a very long time and millions have been a part of it at one time or another over those years. Commendable what Kyle and Carson have built…

       —

       The success rate for would-be business owners is not high, depending on where you look and when you look between 5% all the way down to 1%! That is not a very good statistic, and our program and network are intended to raise that success rate by a lot.  We want to have everything possible available and give the members options to build their business their way, where it fits their situation.

       —

       Most certainly there are methods that must be used for the various business models, but if the fit is not there for the member, their chances of success are less, by a lot. Wealthy Affiliate does a very good job training their members how to develop an affiliate program, although there are other paths to affiliate success that may be faster.  

       —

       What they teach members to build is a sustainable business over months and years versus a quick buck approach. I think that is very sensible. But many people will never stick with it to get to the point where they are earning regularly an income that justifies the effort in their mind, They quit or stop working at the business. 

       —

       Starting people out by helping them determine what their goals are, assessing their skill set, and looking at their dreams and current life situation (i.e. time, money, family, bills, job, etc.) to come up with some options that are within the parameters of what they really want, the process to getting to success is much easier, faster, and less painful often we have found.

       —

       An additional service and feature that we are developing and will have available is a member’s shop. Those entrepreneurs having tools, SaaS programs, or resources that they have created as a part of their business can list them for other members to purchase. 

       —

       There is an admin fee involved, plus PayPal and Stripe fees, but nonetheless, it is a chance to get started with selling. That is often a hurdle to get past, as many do not want to develop a shop or have the hassle of listing on other platforms. It provides a means to have success faster. 

       —

       Of course, we are a work in progress, as is Wealthy Affiliate and all good platforms, I think. So we will continue to tailor the network and features as members indicate is needed and wanted, and over time, what we now have will get better and better. We will also factor in and keep members abreast of changes in the market and small business world. 

       —

       Bottom line, it is our belief that members will look to our network and features, tools, services, and advice to be partners of sorts, on a regular basis. Operating a small business from home or a laptop on a beach somewhere can be a lonely thing. Our aim is to be there right with that business owner, no matter where he is.

       —

       If you have more questions, please do not hesitate to ask them in the thread, not sure how many levels this goes down to but it is at least 3 or 4 deep, so we can have a conversation! Right now we still have some 1-year memberships that are free to grab, just register a free account and I will manually upgrade your membership!

       —

       Two more last, last things (I promise!)… 

       First, remember the recruiting contest we have monthly, For bringing referrals you can earn additional free months of membership access, and for the referrals to the contest who create a 7-day free trial account within the academy, you will qualify for 2 contests – one for moet referrals registering an account and one for the most sales realized.  

       —

       Second, I would recommend also requesting approval to be an affiliate. Once your referrals are in our system, you as the referrer can earn a commission from any purchases of memberships, tools, services, or resources that they subsequently use for their business.

       Do consider joining us and requesting approval as an affiliate over and above signing up for the recruiting contest and the free 7-day account that is available minimally.

    Congratulations to Smarter Academy on opening its doors to members! It’s great to see an academy that offers courses in digital marketing, web development, and data analysis. These fields are in high demand in today’s job market, and it’s wonderful to have a flexible and affordable learning option like Smarter Academy. I’m curious to know more about the quality of the courses and the academy’s reputation. If you can provide me with more info about Smarter Academy, please share your thoughts!

    1. Hello, Marios!

       Thanks for your visit and thanks for the comments and questions. We most certainly like the chance to provide further information to such questions, as other readers will benefit as they have more details on which to make decisions.

       —

       The quality of the courses is top-notch, and have been designed and built using our course development specialists with Master’s Degree or higher educational background…I myself have 2 Masters of Education and have been in the teaching world for decades. 

       —

       Along with that education, our instructors have real-world business experience too, as I have. Since retiring from the military 25+ years ago, I have been self-employed either as a consultant a business owner, or both! The same goes for our instructors. They know how to present the information in a succinct manner (I am not as good – I tend to talk and write a lot!)…

       —

       In regards to the YouTube curated playlists, we have some channels that are of high value for any business owner that we follow and add to our playlists. This helps members keep up with trends and innovation in the small business world without wasting time.

       —

       With the addition of AI and the power it offers, members can even ask our staff to provide synapses of the videos that interest them!  Saves even more time and you get the short version with the main points! The same can be said for our newsletter. There is a ton of information in each issue that will keep you up on the market.  

       —

       In regards to reputation, I would say that the reputation of the founders and the instructors is more indicative of the potential the academy and network offer members. We are just standing this site up after a move from an older platform that was outdated and offered fewer chances for innovation. 

       —

       I have helped literally thousands over the years through mentoring and coaching and taught in college and university-level institutions for a decade plus. While in the US Army, over a span of 25 years, I completed 4 degrees and after retirement completed all but my dissertation for a doctorate. I retired as a Sergeant Major and was stationed in many areas including with Army Headquarters for Logistics and Quartermaster.  

       —

       In that role, I wrote field manuals and regulations, tested and designed new field equipment, set up parameters for promotion boards for senior-level non-commissioned officers selection to higher ranks, and traveled the globe assisting units with systemic problems to improve operations and results. Loved that assignment!

       —

       My management and business owner experience after retirement from the military has ranged from a small business self-operated to huge corporations working as an independent contractor globally. I have a psychology background and have been in all sorts of settings in 85 countries so far in my life. I have been fortunate.  

       —

       I hope this provides the answers you were looking for! If not, ask away, I am right here to provide further clarification! Do consider joining us, there are still a few free annual memberships available that will give you a chance to give the platform a look-see!

33. This looks like an interesting opportunity! I love the emphasis on AI, as that’s where everything’s going. Gone are the days of slaving away the old fashioned way, especially when your competition is utilizing all the latest tools to gain an edge of their own. The recruiting contest sounds like a good idea, as does lifetime recurring affiliate commissions. We’re living in a time where everything is outrageously priced and just far enough out of reach that many can’t seem to get their hands on things they easily afforded just a couple years ago. So any effort to open these kinds of offers to more everyday people is bound to help get your new company off the ground. I’ll be sure to share this with others!

    1. Hi, Mark…

       Thanks for those positive comments! We are always pleased to get feedback and use the information to improve or to provide further clarification on what the network is and what it provides for members. Great minds think alike I believe…

       —

       You have hit many of our main driving mantras or core beliefs about what we offer. Indeed, it seems many platforms offer just a piece of the many elements that make up a business these days. As much as possible, we want to provide everything that the new marketer or business owner will need.

       —

       This saves time and it saves money. There are some areas that are best left to companies offering services such as autoresponders or website hosting (although we do have software and our own server where we can offer this type of service it is not a focus)…

       —

       The flash price for lifetime access will go away after the first 200 slots are sold. This price will never come back again. But there will be limited lifetime slots available (200 per month) at $250 with a one-time payment or $300 with two monthly payments, still a great bargain…

       —

       The focus outside of the lifetime will be monthly or annual memberships, and we may add a semi-annual membership option as well. There will be no limit on the number of new members we can add, as our platform is able to handle large numbers of members (we have our own servers).

       —

       Considering the value that members get, the prices are truly fair, and then some…Here is a short synopsis of what is included and value for the price structures above:

       — 2 SMART Lead Magnet Kits  – Value: $19.90

       — 1 30-Day Social Media Content Kit – Value $15.00

34. Hey, I am so happy that I’ve found this article to read. It’s a really exciting offer and looks like every things ready and just need an action-taker to start the first step. I am really interested in starting my online business and I was wondering if is there a road map or route to success designed as well so a beginner can start from the early stage and grow to success.
    All in all, it was very exciting and I liked it.

    1. Hey There, Hamid!

       Nice that you stopped by and nice that you took the time to leave some feedback via your comment! We are getting a lot of good information from people like yourself and the questions they have are helping us provide a lot more clarification about the SMART(ER) Business Network.

       —

       Yes, there is a special series of courses all wrapped up into one subject we call “Getting Started.” This is a set of courses that takes the new entrepreneur who may not have any idea or only a vague idea of the kind of business that may suit their particular situation through a process to determine the best options.

       —

       That set of courses covers setting goals and assessing their current personal situation, covers potential business models that might work based on their situation, helps in the research process, and finally covers the writing of a personal business plan that they can then implement.

       —

       The reason we recommend that new members go through this process is that it is often easier to follow through and actually take action on the plan they worked to create. Each plan is different, as all people are in different situations. We offer training, support, resources, and tools for all kinds of business models…

       —

       Not only that, over time, members will likely see that they can add additional streams of income to their business focus – examples might be freelancer work and affiliate marketing or another might be monetizing a YouTube channel and affiliate marketing.  

       —

       Along with that, they can also offer their created products and services from their business through the member shop where other members can purchase them. This helps members score quicker successes, meaning that they likely will stick to the plan and get their business off the ground and growing.  

       —

       Of course, throughout this process, they have the SMART Support Team, Coach Dave. the Community and members within that platform, and they have weekly coaching sessions to pull them along, moving them forward to complete tasks, get products and services launched, etc. 

       —

       Have a look through the comments, there is a lot of good information posted while answering questions others have had based on their reading of the article. It might answer any other questions you may have!  

       —

       Cheers!

35. May I say that I was attracted to your website SMART(ER) ACADEMY after reading through was impressed because of the clear explainatory information about the program. it did show the vast experience you have in the field of coaching. It was quite amazing the countless bonuses that is offered at all level which make the program exciting. can you give a little light on who can qualify for a lifetime free access that you mentioned or were referring to the Affiliate program? Also, how can an affiliate have asses to promoting your program? Thank you for offering yourself in putting out this program

    Reply

    1. Hi There, Jobs!

       Thanks for popping through and thanks for the questions. Great opportunity for me to add some additional information for all others who happen by the post. We are always seeking to be clear on what is on offer and why we feel it is the best program available for entrepreneurs or prospective or current business owners…

       —

       There are ways to get free access as follows: 

       1. You can register for a free trial or as a free member and I will be upgrading a total of 20 members to a 1-year free access to the Platinum level membership. Nothing further needs to be done.

       2. You can register for the monthly recruiting contest and get a free 7-day trial to the Premium level membership. As you bring in referrals, yt=u will earn rewards of added months of free access. More referrals, more months added. Plus you can win cash prizes or the referrals you bring registering and upgrading their free trial account to a paid account.

       3. For that recruiting contest, there are 20 names drawn for a 1-year access to the Platinum level membership and if you are one of the lucky ones, you will get free access for 1 year this way. The contest is monthly, so each month you can participate and win. 

       4. If you also request approval to promote the network as an affiliate, you can earn affiliate income on a lifetime and recurring basis, and through the earnings have your access extended using the commissions versus money out of pocket. Not totally free but less painful?

       5. Using this same thought process, you can use cash awards and affiliate commissions to upgrade to a lifetime plan that we are offering monthly in limited quantities and at a one-time low price. Pay once (or in payments at a slightly higher price) and never pay again when complete. Again, not totally free but less painful!

       —

       I am replying to this comment on 1 October 2023, so today the stats are reset for the monthly contest and everyone has an equal chance to win yet again. Bring referrals after signing up, help them register for the free trial membership (as an affiliate), and earn in a number of ways (see the contest rules for more information)…

       —

       See you inside! Let’s do this!

36. David, this announcement about SMART(ER) Academy opening its doors for members is incredibly exciting! The opportunity to gain lifetime access for this price seems like it could be a real game-changer. The integration of AI technology, personalized coaching, and a supportive community is a comprehensive approach. I think that would be hard to find elsewhere. I’m eager to explore all the resources and benefits SMART(ER) has to offer. Seems like there is a lot to look over!!

    1. Hi, Aly…

       First of all, thanks much for taking the time to leave a comment after reading through the latest post referencing the launch of the SMART(ER) Business Network! There most certainly is a full set of features and content that comes on top of the courses covering business models and core competency courses that p[provide instruction on many basic business skills that all business owners need to have these days.

       —

       There are materials and tools on top of the training and lots of reference material to help members get the information they need quickly. Add to that the community and coaching for support, and especially the SMART(ER) AI Staff that leverages the time and output potential for members, and you have a winning combination at a price point that is much more reasonable than similar sites that have fewer features.  

       —

       Now the key is to get the word out to the audience(s) that use such a platform. Hence the recruiting contests, the flash sale, and the upcoming monthly and annual membership options. It is through our affiliates and content marketing in combination with email marketing that we will achieve the target member numbers that we are looking for,  

       —

       Please feel free to register for the latest recruiting contest, the data is reset to zero for the start of a new month. Referrals and you all have the chance to win one of 20 free annual memberships and there are also rewards for bringing referrals who also register for the contest. Cash prizes and commissions are also possible if you sign up to be an affiliate!

       —

       See you inside!

       Cheers!

37. I stumbled upon SMART(ER) Academy recently and was pleasantly surprised by the wealth of resources and support it offers to entrepreneurs. The combination of AI expertise, personalized coaching, and a thriving community is a recipe for success. The lifetime access offer is certainly a steal, and the ongoing contests make it even more engaging. Kudos to the team for creating a platform that empowers business owners to thrive!

    1. Hello, Claude!

       Thanks for popping through and leaving some feedback. We certainly are excited to see this network launch, it has been a couple of years in the making. We have switched LMS, and CMS, and Community Platform, and so much more as we refined everything to get it to where it is today.

       —

       Most certainly all the improvements are not the last as we get more feedback from actual users we will continue to refine the content, the coaching, the community, and the support offered to members. Right now we are working hard to get more members and get this recognized on the academic map of the globe.

       —

       The old paradigm of needing a university degree or degrees does not hold much water these days, and I mention this as someone who has gone through about 13 years of post-high-school education while completing 4 degrees and an ABD (all but dissertation for a doctoral program) in my mind. For a mere few pennies you can achieve likely more success using our academy and resources.

       —

       See you inside and have a great day!

       Cheers!

38. Wow, this is an incredible opportunity for entrepreneurs and business owners! The SMART(ER) Business Network seems like a game-changer with its lifetime access offer at just $99. The fact that it’s usually valued at $1000 per year speaks volumes about the value it provides.
    This offer is too good to pass up, and I can’t wait to see how it helps entrepreneurs turbocharge their success. Kudos to Coach Dave and the SMART(ER) team for this fantastic opportunity!

    1. Hi, Alice!

       Nice to see you stop by, and we appreciate that you also took the time to read through the article and leave a comment, We really look forward to feedback as it helps us improve operations and the user experience for the members of the network. 

       —

       Those 200 slots will be the last ever at that price. The next bump for lifetime access will bring the cost to $250 with a 1x pay  or $300 (2x $150). That is still a super good deal when considering there i literally $1000 in value monthly that is there for members…Our plan is to offer 200 memberships per month at that price. 

       —

       For members preferring to have a monthly or annual plan, we will be opening up the memberships as well. Monthly members can get in at $40 per month, or $400 per year (or 3 x pay $160)…The bottom line is we want to have options where more people can join and enjoy the benefits of the network…

       —

       Stay tuned!

       Cheers!

39. WOW!! I just stumbled upon this blog about SMART(ER) Academy, and wow, it’s got my attention! They’re offering a 1-year Platinum Membership for free to the first 20 sign-ups. You bet I’m checking that out!

    The 7-day free plan, makes me feel like I have to give it a try. Seems like a no-brainer to dive in, right? 🚀

    What caught my eye is the lifetime access offer to their Business Network for just $99 (usually $1000/year). Now that’s a steal!

    I’m all about continuous learning, and with new courses dropping regularly, this might be my go-to spot. Excited to explore! 💡Thank you for getting me curious and sharing so many details. I am hoping this is the right fit for me! I love the AI guy on your site to help answer questions! Amazing!! 🤩  #CustomerPerspective #ExploringOpportunities #SMARTERAcademy

    1. Hello, Debby!

       We appreciate that you took the time to drop a comment and also that you stopped by to view our latest post with this great program launch. The feedback that we get helps us to improve our user experiences and also know what the target audience is looking for. Very helpful!

       —

       There are still a few free slots available and even if they are already given away, there is the 7-day free trial to the premium level membership that you can sign up for easily. If you are clever, with either membership level you can leverage the recruiting contest to add to the months of free access and even get upgraded to a Platinum level membership at no cost! 

       —

       Note that we also have a big Flash Sale going on now and literally you can save thousands over some time, as the Platinum Membership that at regular price costs $1000 is on offer for $99. That is a one-time payment versus annual too, so each year you will get all the benefits at no further cost!

       —

       The bonuses alone are worth the one-time payment, as bundles of resources are included such as lead magnet kits, social media kits, business checklist volumes, business planners, templates, and DFY AI prompts that you can use to leverage the AI Staff that are included.  

       —

       The recruiting contests also have cash prizes on offer, so if you are an action-taker, you could very easily earn from them, from affiliate commissions, and from the monthly affiliate cash prizes we award for action-takers. This is not to mention even more you get.

       —

       We are in the process of creating landing pages for affiliates where their own affiliate link will be included and they will have a chatbot if they wish to be able to contact prospects directly and close the deals. This is something members have asked for so we are working on it…

       —

       The AI guy is an older version of chatbots that we create and place on websites for clients. Today AI advances have made it kind of obsolete (at one time it was cutting edge!)…Right now we are going to be adding WhatsApp widgets versus the chatbot you see on this page.

       —

       The bonuses and value for the $ 99-lifetime access are as follows:

       — 50 SMART Lead Magnet Kits (Report, Opt-In Page, Email Swipes)  – Value $497.50

       — 6 SMART 30-Day Social Media Kits (DFY Social Media Content for a Month) – Value $90.00

       — 12 SMART Business Checklist Volumes (Various Subjects – Each volume with 18 checklists) – Value $163.00

       — 50 PLR Books (Various Subjects – (Build your content, sell, or give away as bonuses) – Value $50.00

       — 5 SMART(ER) Business Planners (Organize, track, evaluate, and make indicated changes to your business operations to succeed faster and eliminate wasted time)- Value $100.00

       — Plus remember, you save $900.01 the FIRST YEAR and $1000 per year thereafter for membership costs! 

       — The first year you get a total value of $2891 and you save $1000 per year thereafter!

       Note that as lifetime members, our entrepreneurs also have access to the recruiting contest, the affiliate program with 5% bumps in commissions over non-paying member affiliates, the community, the coaching, the 40 AI Staff, the resource shop with 10% discount coupon good for life, weekly newsletters, daily email updates, and much more.

       —

       We think we offer tremendous value for the price, and this low flash sale price will not last long. Thereafter, we will raise the lifetime access prices and open the monthly memberships at $35/month, $175 for 6 months, and $350 for 12 months membership. This is a 65% discount on the regular price, so still great deals (and more commissions for affiliates!).

       —

       We will also keep some limited lifetime slots open each month, so those wanting to save even more can upgrade and have no further membership dues to pay ever. The pricing will likely start a bit lower and will end up at $50 to $300 one-time or 2 to 3 x payments at 20% more cost (all still very good deals!)…

       —

       The training and core competency plus other areas of development for business owners such as health, nutrition, diet, and even fitness are also going to be covered in the available courses over time as we migrate from the old academy site…Right now we have over 500 courses in total and are adding newly created training each month too. 

       —

       As you can tell, I am quite excited as we launch and also excited for what is coming. I am very sure that we can help many people get started with their own work-from-home or anywhere business at a low cost out of pocket. The idea is to accommodate as many people as possible to help them get started and earn a profit with their businesses. 

       —

       Hope to see you inside! Free is as low as I can go to get started! Does that work for you?

       Cheers!

40. Hi Dave, this seems very interesting for me. Having spent more than I want to admit on fining a mentor, it is important to have such a good mentorship program and support. The Smart(er) academy sound like a very helpful resource! You mention the cost of $99, is there any other hidden costs after this?

    Reply

    1. Good Day, Ebony!

       Great that you found your way here and also great that you stopped by long enough to ask that excellent question! It is one that many people will want to know the answer to for sure so I am more than happy to get you the information! 

       —

       There is no need to spend more money at the start of planning and researching your business model and niche plus the setting up of that business. The money invested into membership is small – there is no need for bank loans or investors that would require a very detailed business plan.

       —

       The training under the “Getting Started” area of the academy includes a series of courses that will provide a proven path to help the new member decide what might fit their particular situation. Each person is different so there will be a lot of different business models and business types members have to achieve success, We allow for that process within these courses.

       —

       Of course, the community and weekly coaching sessions are also there. I also am inside the academy site, the community, and even the resource shops every day. Members can run their ideas past me and other members to get different perspectives as they move forward.

       —

       Once that process is done, depending on the business model and approach, it could be that the entrepreneur will need a particular tool or a website for the business (some do not require this, but I think it is wise to establish your own bit of real estate on the internet that you control. Social media platforms can be tricky and finicky at times, changing rules, banning people, deleting sites and posts, etc.   

       —

       Typical additional costs might be a domain name, website hosting, premium WordPress plugins, themes, page builders, sales funnel builders that work with WooCommwerce, and an autoresponder service to be able to build a subscriber list that you can email and grow a relationship with.   

       —

       There are free versions of everything you need to get started though minus the domain and hosting. Depending on your business model and approach, there will likely be additional expenses, but they are not huge sums of money. The idea is to grow the business to the point that you need paid tools and can pay for them with earnings from sales.   

       —

       Note that there are some resources that you can also get from the member shop and the prices are lower than the open market generally. Add to that the 10% discount as a member, and any needs you have that we offer will lower your costs.  

       —

       Also, with the various ways that you can earn money quickly as a member, it is likely that you will not have to spend out of pocket as these additional expenses appear. From my own experience, I wish that there was someone like me or the SMART(ER) Business Network around to help me understand what was needed and not needed starting out!

       —

       If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to ask! We would love to have you join us, we are looking for people who are motivated to succeed and ready to put in the effort that is required to make that a reality for themselves and their loved ones!

       See you inside!
