The Blastoff Official Launch

November 8th, 2009 by admin

It snuck right by us.

November 5th was the official launch of Blastoff. Yep, the front doors are now open, anyone can join from the front of the blastoffnetwork.com website.

In all fairness, they did say that Pre-Paid Legal members would get 2 weeks, which ended on that day. However since they didn’t tell us which day by email, video, nor any other type of warning whatsoever, it was extremely confusing in light of the fact that our “start” date was delayed.

Note to CEO Rodgers: Any time you don’t communicate, people will feel like this.

Late last night I was reading about the new partnership program for blastoff (so businesses can sign up like Pizza Hut did) on blastoffnetwork.com and discovered that the main page join button now works.

I went in the Blastoff forums searching for answers and all I found was CEO Rodgers saying this on Halloween:

…We are launching to the public on November 5th. If you would like to join before then you can sign up under one of our pre-launch members here in the forum.

Thanks!

Arrgh. So this tells me that they weren’t exactly hiding the fact, per se, but they weren’t going out of their way to publicize it. Oh well. At least they gave us our two weeks as promised.

The Good News for You:

Although this sounds like the end of an enlightened period where you had an added advantage, it’s not all bad news. There is a way that you can make this work to your advantage.

People simply aren’t likely to be stopping by Blastoffnetwork.com. Why visit when not referred by someone else? Sure, a few will, but mainly people click through links and wind up on member pages, not the main domain name.

But since many people will feel that “the competition” is now in effect, they will stop promoting. Take my word for it, I have been an affiliate for many product launches, and there is a mentality out there amoung promoters in general that goes something like this; “Uh-oh, someone bigger than me starts promoting tomorrow; I’d better wrap up my efforts tonight.”

So if 1 bigger player enters the field and hundreds of smaller promoters just quit at that point, the net effect is that whomever gives it a try at that point will have much lesser competition overall.

So, I say it once again; now is a great time to promote and build your downline! Those that give up can never succeed, while those that take advantage of such situations always will.
