Inspection Success Book
|
|
Rating: 
Level of Review:
Researched, not worth the risk!
Overview:
Book claiming to teach you how to make big
money doing home inspections.
Product:
They are selling a book, your product is the
service
Cost:
$39.95
Compensation:
Varies with region and market. They make claims
of high per hour dollar figures, but those don't
mean much if you get little work, or if you have
unknown business expenses to deduct from
them.
Conclusion:
This one made me very uneasy. The ad text was
full of hype, and unreasonable claims. His
testimonials were all made from people who were
commenting before the strategy was even tried. They
sound really good, but meant less than nothing
since nobody said that the advice in the book
actually WORKED (seems like with all that hype, if
someone had actually SAID it, he would have
put it in there!). In fact, the only indication of
honesty that I can find on the site is that
there are NOT any claims of satisfaction in
having tried the program!
He claims you can
do this with no training or experience, but the
FACT is that in most states, to even DO this
you must be licensed, and he makes no mention of
any kind of licensing requirements. Home
inspections are not something you can do without
understanding construction, plumbing, electrical,
and other Uniform Building Code issues. I am highly
sceptical of his claims, and would not recommend
that anyone purchase this unless they already have
solid credentials for making it work, and even then
I'd recommend caution. He has an affiliate program
for selling the book, but I did not feel good
enough about it to link to it, even if it could
have made me some cash to do so!

Our Rating System:
No program is right for everyone.
Even a rating of four or five does not indicate that you should
dive in without some careful thought and consideration. Business
is still risky. All reviews have the reasons for the rating
clearly defined.
    -
Information presented in program is accurate and factual concerning
the potential of the program, program is based on sound business
principles, and has good potential to provide stable income
for individuals to whom the program is suitable.
   -
Information is accurately presented, company focuses on selling
product, but business is either more confusing, less predictable,
or slightly higher risk for one of a number of reasons. Still
considered a sound company and very acceptable risk.
  -
Information may be confusing or misleading, company may have
significant issues with program structure, support of product,
or public perception and reputation. A rating of three does
not mean you should not do it. It just means you need to be
sure you are suited to overcoming the difficulties that the
program has.
 -
Information generally misleading, risk fairly high, many unanswered
questions, business principles questionable, but still has some
potential for actually working for some people.
-
Cannot declare that it is an outright scam, but potential for
it to work is very low. Will have questionable business theory,
bad reputation, excessive hype that is not backed up by common
sense, or other aspects which indicate very high risk. Will
always have multiple issues, not just one thing.
-
Outright Scam. Anything labeled this way is never worth any
kind of risk.
