If asked, many online marketers would say that StomperNet have written a long presentation to cover all the questions people are likely to ask about the programme. Your comment about we Brits being different from our American cousins is valid - although I do think we all still have the basic imperative to discover things that help us get the results we want (rather than just need). As regards whether what they offer will help you with your sales, I can't say that for certain. Whenever I look at offers coming from 'stateside' - or anywhere abroad for that matter - I do tend to look for testimonials from people who are UK based - that gives me confidence that the material offered will work for the UK market as well. The SMARTS program I've just completed with them had at least 32 UK members - we created our own team within the SMARTS forum - and some have gone on to join StomperNet's full membership, I don't know exactly how many. StomperNet concentrates on helping you to get your website seen on the web, by definition that means anyone globally could find it, including Brits - whether they buy when they reach your website depends upon the strength of your copy and offer. So, as with many of these offers the crunch question is "Will you implement the advice being delivered?" that's where time can be an issue ;) All the best, Carol Hi Tony,

As regards whether what they offer will help you with your sales, I can’t say that for certain. Whenever I look at offers coming from ’stateside’ - or anywhere abroad for that matter - I do tend to look for testimonials from people who are UK based - that gives me confidence that the material offered will work for the UK market as well.

However I recognise they are offering a lot of really good material and if one had the time to do the studying one would learn a lot and no doubt end up making money. Obviously they give little away so whilst it was easy to be sold on 'them' and their offerings I could not see it was worth the price to me. I have this view, rightly or wrongly, that we Brits are different to Americans and our buying motivations are definitely not the same. I want to sell products from my website to Brits not Americans and I don't think what they have to offer will help me in that endeavour. Am I right or wrong Carol?
