How To Be An AndrewHansen.name Reviewer

Yes, we are building the only honest, public IM review community online and this page is everything you need to know in order to be one of our honest reviewers.

To become a reviewer is free, and you can sign up here. Below are the full instructions on how to be a reviewer. READ THEM BEFORE SIGNING UP :)

When you’re a reviewer, you’ll receive weekly emails from me about which products are being requested for review. You can choose one from those that I send, and reply to me with your review in your own time.

Each week I’ll select the most honest and helpful reviews and they’ll be published for our whole review community to see.

If the product is high quality and your review is a recommendation, you may include your own affiliate link. Don’t try to submit a review just for the sake of that because it WON’T get through. I’ll compare the reviews to everyone elses and I’ll be reading each one to validate their honesty and quality.

If the product is bad in your review, and your review gets published. I’ll send you a monetary reward through paypal.

Either way, you may leave a link at the bottom of the review like:

Reviewed By Your Name from yoursite.com.

In the same way, feel free to have your review remain completely anonymous. Your details won’t be published if you don’t want them to be.

The reviews you submit must be in the following format, answering these points.

First about you:

How Long You’ve Been In IM For

What Your Main Focuses Are (ie SEO, PPC, Blogging, Etc)

The Level You Consider Yourself to Be Out Of New, Medium, Advanced

Your Paypal Email Address (won’t be displayed publicly)

Then about the report:

Quality Of The Information

Newness Of The Information (a product with “nothing new” doesn’t necessarily mean a bad product)

Value relative to the price you paid and similar products you’ve purchased.

Ease Of Implementation: How well you could take the information in the product and act on it.

Additional Information:

Reviews that don’t come to me in this exact format will not be published so please follow those guidelines carefully.

NOTE: While we are trying to make an HONEST review community, we’re not here to BASH. If a product is bad, we will say it’s bad, but we’re not here to taint anyones name, and we will still conduct this community with an attitude of respect both to product creators and customers.

Also, if the product has a real and clear “secret” or something that is vital to the marketing strategy of that report, we will act sensibly and sensitively about how or if we reveal it in our reviews. Reviews submitted that blatantly violate that rule will not be accepted either.

  1. One obvious question Andrew – if I do a review that you use can I go ahead and publish that review on my blog?

    ;-)

  2. Good start Andrew,

    Do you accept my style of reviews here…see it here what I mean http://reviewboss.com/category/im-products.

    Being an advanced marketer I consider most of the IM products as CRAP. However, there is a chance that a total novice might find the same crap product useful.

    Just let me know :)

  3. Hey RB,

    Yes, the verdict of that review is fine but just a tiiiny bit more of this one…

    “NOTE: While we are trying to make an HONEST review community, we’re not here to BASH. If a product is bad, we will say it’s bad, but we’re not here to taint anyones name, and we will still conduct this community with an attitude of respect both to product creators and customers.”

    Would be required for our reviews.

    Hope that’s ok as it’s clear you know your stuff and it’d be great to have you as a reviewer :)

  4. Hey everyone..happy monday!
    I think this is a great idea from Andrew and I am on board for this!
    I am a real information junkie! That’s probably why I chose science as my primary career. I buy lots of products, well now I am slowing down because most of the new stuff is “continuity” and the payments do pile up! But I still buy lots of ebooks and study courses. I am in the process of creating a review site http://www.onlinedealreviews.com but this wil not be focused solely on IM products.
    I am looking forward to seeing which products Andrew picks for reviews. I am interested in reviews for this 2 products:
    - Niche Blueprint
    -Twitter Salvation System

    I did not buy any of those, I almost grabbed a copy of the Twitter one, but is now closed.

    Thanks again Andrew for this great idea!

    Guillermo

  5. Great job Andrew… wasn’t this an idea of yours not too long ago and now its starting to take shape.

    I’d be happy to write up some reviews as well.

  6. Do you provide a review copy of the product ?

  7. Thank you for your help!

  8. OK. I jumped the gun there. I see your bigger picture now in controlling the quality of OTHER reviewers on your site.

    While I’ve done that with my hand-selected reviewers I like what you’re doing better as it seems much more scalable and is a bit more “open-door” than what I do.

    Sorry I jumped the gun there, but the truth is there is NOT just ONE good site, ONE honest site, ONE of anything and its misleading to claim so.
