Hi Becky and Alasycia,
I'll respond to both your posts. Becky...I totally did not take your response as offensive in any way. That's why we come to forums..to learn, ask questions, give opinions, etc. I gain so much valuable info from reading and posting on forums.
Alasycia,
I don't know why John does not make the TOS clear. I did ask him though where the ads are seen and he said that they go out to all of his affiliate sites and the affiliate sites of those affiliate sites.
I know that is true because I went to sign up for SFI pay and I saw one of my Ambit Energy ads on the front page.
I signed up for DRW because I have a contact in this business who is very successful and is in constant contact with many owners of these types of programs. I trust her and she has only given me outstanding advice.
I started with DRW about 3 weeks ago and have made over $120. I also withdrew money in the very beginning to see how fast (or if) I would be paid and it was done within the day.
I am promoting DRW because I believe in it and that is all. After speaking with John my beliefs were confirmed. I absolutely would never promote something that I think is sketchy and I even paid for the members in my downline in RIOY to buy a $10 adpack to get them started.
I do realize that in this business there is much to watch out for but I have been lucky to have met some really sincere and good people out there who are not scamming people.
Realistically, many people do not make money online for various reasons but when you find something that works then I think its great to let people know about it.
That's what I am doing.
Take care,
Laura

Hi Laura
I am glad you are having a good experience so far with DRW. However I would ask you to please convey these questions again to John Kirk and ask him if he would please come here and give us some answers. And better still put some proper information on his site.
Because right now it is seriously lacking and will be very difficult for people to promote with their hands on their hearts without this information in writing!!
Thanks Jenny

Hi Jenny,
I don't necessarily feel comfortable asking him to come here to defend his program. I'll look for his support email with DRW and PM you with it.
How does that sound?
Take care,
Laura

Hi Laura,
I think that it is unecessary for anyone to defend DRW, as it is not being attacked!,
All that I have done is to ask some questions about things that are missing on the DRW site and that we are taught to look out for when we do our due diligence into any online programme we join.
i went to look after i was invited to join, as it looked interesting - and was surprised to find all the TOS and contact details missing.
What is surprising me even more is that, having asked here, that everyone is so mysterious about it and are suprised that anyone should want to know this information.
Trust is a great thing, but in business it has to be based on more than just personalities. I am trustworthy, but always like my referrals to ask questions and check things out for themselves on the programmes I am involved with. We can all make mistakes! LOL
Lets hope that one day we will find out a little more about the business side of DRW and then we can all join!
Jenny

Hi Jenny,
I just used the wrong word.
I meant that I don't feel comfortable because I don't really know the guy and I only spoke to him once and that was on a 3-way call with a marketer who has known and worked with him for years.
Take care,
Laura

FYI: I requested a withdrawal this morning and received a 'Money Received' notification from Alertpay this afternoon. That's a good sign.
It seems like the rebates have slowed down recently. I don't think you can make a 'whole lot' of money from this program. Just my opinion...

They just added Solid Trust Pay as a pay processor. Their sister co., owned by the same people is EtxAds which accepts Paypal. I joined the EtxAds because I could use some extra funds in Paypal. This one does not pay quite as high as Driven Rapid Wealth.
This is great for some $$, and the owners are good, but not something that will be around for years. I reinvested for a few more packs and will now start drawing out my seed money (what I put in) then just reinvest earnings.
Nice, easy little program here.

I am still hoping that someone knows something about who the company belongs to. Ana Denise - you sound as if you know - please can you let us know.
So far my conclusion is that it is something to be used to earn and get your money out fast and dont promote it if you have a reputation for doing due dilgence to protect!LOL

Hey Annadenise,
Why don't you think it won't be around for a long time? The owner specifically mentioned to me that his intention was to keep it around for a long time. It depends on the people who invest to make that happen. The more consistently people invest the quicker the return.
As a math teacher, I don't really see why it should fold unless of course people stop investing. The more adpacks the better!
In less than a month I've made about $200 in adpack earnings and more from fast cash!
Take care,
Laura

These folks ran another similar program a couple of years ago and have heard they are honest. I've been in these type programs before and they slow down on earnings on the adpaks as more join, this has already slowed down with the earnings on the ad paks. Don't confuse the earnings daily from people you refer from the earnings on the adpaks. I think it is nice for short term. To me long term means the company looks like it will be around for many years, not six months to a year or two. This is something I do not refer others to, I just utilize it to get a little extra cash and some advertising.

Well I am going to contact the owner with the email address you have given me here and ask the same questions direct.
I hope that he is able to give good answers and I will come back and let you all know if I do get them.
Laura, I appreciate your loyalty, but now you are confusing me. On the one hand you say you dont know the guy well enough to pass on the questions and on the other hand say that "The owner specifically mentioned to me that his intention was to keep it around for a long time."
I am with you, Ana Denise, long term to me means years and years. And sustainable means sustainbable long term. I would love to think I am wrong - but this one looks like, just for fun, for now.
Will let you know
Jenny

Hi Jenny,
I'm not sure why you would be confused. Yes the owner specifically mentioned that he would like to keep this program around awhile. He mentioned that in the one conversation I had with him and another marketer friend of his.
Based on one conversation, I do not feel that I know him well enough to ask more of him.
With respect to this program, it is not an MLM and you do not have monthly fees. You can buy a $10 ad pack and see for yourself. Its that easy!
Take care,
Laura

Hi Laura,
I agree with all you have said except not sure were you get the 6%interest!! Program is currently running on 1-1.5% daily return at present.
cheers, Steve

You are absolutely right Steve. It has slowed down within the past few days but I'm still seeing a decent daily return.
Take care,
Laura

It looks like people are investing more again because I've been seeing a nice daily return. Also, they are absolutely awesome when it comes to crediting your account and withdrawls as well.
Credits are immediate and withdrawls will show up in your payment processor of choice in less than 2 hours. I can say that from experience!
Take care,
Laura

I've been with DRW for maybe a couple months. DRW is also part of BigMoneyPro (owner Steve Sigman). You can do DRW without RIOY (owner Karl Green) or BMP.
So far my $50 turned into $74.XX and thanks to Linda Acosta from BMP, I received one $5 cash bonus without ever referring anyone to DRW. Linda is an "income specialist" with BMP, as she WAS with RIOY. She cycles people and helps them earn money faster, but she 'can' (legally & contractually allowed) only do this for you if you are part of BMP; this is why BMP owner brought her on board. Problem is like RIOY, BMP costs too much money per month without ever giving you any return on it. It is a program of programs. You can do all the programs, DRW included, without the "big-daddy umbrella" program (RIOY & BMP).
So what would you promote on DRW if not RIOY or BMP? Anything or nothing! DRW as an advertising venue, in my most humble opinion, stinks. In one month, I received 324 banner flashes and only 2 clicks. If I had a program I seriously wanted to promote, I would not choose DRW's ad packs. DRW is great in that it shares profits with you and that is how you make money. But like some of the vitamin/nutritional supplement MLMs, the product itself leaves much to be desired.
Yes, you can dig and dig and find out who the owner of DRW is, but I just asked Linda. Linda is a real person and she is great. But DRW does not post any info on the site and it makes no promises of income or refunds or anything. It's low risk because of low entry fee ($10) to "play," but at the same time, it's all risk. So it's fun if you're making money, but it stinks if you don't. I personally did not go beyond my $50 investment, b/c I didn't see the point. The program could get shut down tomorrow. It probably won't, but it CAN.
That's what happened with ASD. ASD went a step beyond and promised daily percentages on commissions, yet all the commissions were paid out of new recruits. So now the feds are shutting it down, calling it a pyramid scheme.
On the other hand, DRW isn't as big as ASD was, so the feds probably won't have that much of an interest; they prefer to shut down big companies, so they make money. Everyone wants to make money!
Also, if you only put in $10-50 and you lost that much, why would you file a complaint about the company? Would it be worth your time and effort? It's not worth mine, considering I blow $50 easily going out to eat with my family at a restaurant that turns out to be bad...
These are my sober thoughts about DRW. Take it with a grain of salt. I am no expert, but I'm a research fiend who demands truth/knowledge on all things of interest to me.
PS - I read something not-so-great about Solid Trust Pay, but don't quote me on it. I think it was on MLMWatchdog.com. This site is a great resource for anyone wanting to investigate a work-at-home opportunity.

Hi,
I'm in DRW and am up to making close to about $40 to $50 a day. Its a great little program and I have received leads from the advertising as well.
I'm not sure you know that RIOY has changed their program though. DRW is an optional program with RIOY and they now promote one of the most successful health and wellness companies today. There is a big return on your investment and the owner of RIOY has provided a very lucrative and generous way of building a business in TriVita.
Good luck,
Laura

Hello everyone, It sure seems like people are happy with this program.
In light of ASD being shut down by the Department Of Justice: DOJ v. ASD, I have a few questions.
Is anyone concerned that this may be a ponzi scheme, which could make you liable even if you are not the website owner?
How many people have actually cashed in on the money they have 'earned'?
If the earnings percentage has dropped so drastically, isn't that a red flag?
Of course it's tempting to want to get in on this but, if you search this website for the ASD topics/posts, well, that could be a sobering experience.

DRW is great in that it shares profits with you and that is how you make money. But like some of the vitamin/nutritional supplement MLMs, the product itself leaves much to be desired.
This is precisely the issue with ASD. The adpack was basically bogus. NOBODY bought the adpacks as a way to actually advertise, only as a way to get the unheard of return of 25% on their money.
The product was only a way to get people to pay IN to the massive ponzi scheme going on. And to get more and more people to pay IN, so that those who had already paid in could get their 25% return.
Ask yourselves this, WHERE does the money for this return on your investment come from, especially if the advertisement is as worthless as some members here recognize??
(answer - NEW MEMBERS!, that's what makes it a PONZI scheme!)
When this goes the way of ASD (website owners AND those who profited and withdrew their 'earnings' facing criminal indictment), where will the thousands and THOUSANDS of new members get THEIR profits from?
These new members will not earn a dime, and their 'investment' will have been confiscated by the investigating authorities. (smart idea to have no more than $50 'invested' in this! Dumb idea to withdraw anymore than you are willing to RETURN with interest, to the authorities when they shut this one down.)
But that's why PONZI schemes are illegal. Because of the massive social/economic misery they eventually WILL cause.
Doesn't anyone see this coming?
