Russ Whitney uses the same sales tactics as
network marketing schemers. He shows pictures of
luxury cars, student on paradise vacation and talk
about the rich lifestyle you will have if you invest in
his real estate course. He tries to motivate viewers
to purchase his course through these luxury items
and vacations. What we choose to do with the
possible income generated from the success of the
course is our business, not his. Its the same
sales strategie that multilevel marketing and
network marketing schemers have used to
rip off millions of people. Carlton, on the
other hand seems more genuine and honest.
He doesn’t need to rely on showing the veiwers
expensive cars and homes to motive them to
purchase his course. His years of experience and
his good character does it alone. If you are
considering attending Russ Whitney seminar
and purchasing his course then
I would advise you to process with caution.

He’s coming to my city for a 4 hour seminar, and now i’m uhhhhhhh not too sure I’d like to attend.

I’ve seen him on the commericals. With that yellow shirt.
Nice tropical trees in the background…etc.

Any opinions on what I can expect from Russ?

Much Thanks.

I just went to one of the Russ Whitney free seminars:

  1. Russ did not show. I attended one of his seminars about ten years ago and he spoke personally. (I did not buy his tapes, nor was I ready to buy properties 10 years ago – so I thought I attend again, now that I’m ready.)

  2. Unlike one other hour-long seminar that I attended about 30 days ago, there is very little (two or three ideas) useful information. I left after 90 minutes. A full 60 minutes of that time was testimonials. Not the details of deal for instructional purposes … just more of the same stuff you saw on his informercials.

  3. The speaker made several shaky/unethical recommendations. For instance, when talking about cleaning up a fixer-upper, the speaker suggested that you borrow a truck from a friend to haul the junk away. If you don’t know anyone who owns a truck, then he suggested that you TEST DRIVE one from a new truck dealer. Perhaps I’m a prude, but this one really rubbed me the wrong way.

Maybe the speaker/seminar improved 110% after I left. In my opinion, even though the seminar is free, I’d say don’t waste your time.

Good luck to you!
