A lot of reviews out there of the MLGS seems to be bit biased because many reasons ( Keep reading to know more).
I just went through the MLGS for 3 months to see if I can pick up few nuggets to add to my email marketing.
I think email marketing should be a complementary part of your online business, I still believe deeply that the #1 skill to ensure your success online is the ability to produce free traffic. Because without traffic even the great email marketing sequence will not produce any sales.

My lead gen secret Overview
My Lead Gen Secret is a lead generation tool that helps you have leads and convert them into customers. It is a powerful marketing automation software that helps you get more sales, leads and customers.
- For just $30 per month, you get the following:
100 Very Cold Leads Per Day
Free Mailing Facility
Promotional Banners
Customer Support
Statistics
- For just $60 one time payment, you get Email Swipes.
Where The Leads Comes From?
The leads are co-registration leads &generated by 10 different advertising partners and are distributed at the rate of 100 business email leads per day. These permission-based email leads are also made available for immediate download and reuse.
The Good & the Bad
The Good:
PRO #1
Basically, 100 fresh leads a day with $1 cost only. You can keep receiving 200 leads daily with the same cost, if you keep only one active referral with you.
PRO #2
Done-For-You Mailing System is provided free of charge.
PRO #3
The MLGS system replaces unsubscribed leads with new ones without your notice. As result, your email list remains never decreases. You can see that MLGS mailer allows the leads to unsubscribe and this looks legit.
PRO #4
This is what will make YOU want to try MLGS. For anyone who doesn’t have a registered business, they can’t get people’s emails and send them offers to buy. So YOU are in the safe side to email your subscribers under the name of MLGS’s business
PRO #5
The customer service of the MLGS is really good. They’re always there for you, and will provide all the information you need on leads groups and preferred offers.
The Bad:
CON #1
MLGS leads are very cold, since they don’t know who you are and have never read any of the content you’ve put out before. You need to take some time to build a relationship with them and write engaging emails to catch their attention. This is the opposite approach to promoting any product through your website, where leads subscribe because of reading your content on your landing page/website (warm leads) and then a few emails from you, many sales occur.
CON #2
Leads mainly related to money-making niche. Not many choices of niches are available. If you would like to promote any product related to any niche you have to try first to see the results. This case is waste of your time.
CON #3
MLGS subscribers tend to make money by offering MLGS to the leads. As I search online I found that people made money with the MLGS when they promote the system itself to the MLGS leads.
I try to be neutral as long as I can, the MLGS members did not get good amount of money by offering click bank products, or JV zoo, or so on.
This happens because people not willing to work hard to create their own email list or even build website with organic traffic and collect emails. so that they dive in this opportunity and offer it to others as shortcut to earn money. !
CON #4
You can email your leads one time using a done-for-you mailer, and this could be to avoid the spam report against the MLGS mailer.
CON #5
The MLGS Mailer is restricted to MLGS Leads only. There no option to import your external leads to use MLGS mailer system.
CON# 6
The tracking analysis is insufficient (Not very detailed). You can NOT use any tracking system when sending from within the program. I remember when I sent an email to 10k leads and only around 300 only open that email.
You cannot know what is going on the background of mailers.
CON# 7
All promotion materials (video or sale page), plays on the FEAR inside potential customers. The offer will GONE soon!. It is still existing since 2019.
On the page sale, you can see that overall price is $60 for first month and then $30 thereafter and no mention about the upsell (email series) at all!. This is always the way that any vendor offers the upsell. They are lacking of transparent.
CON#8
The MLGS used to use the mantra “the money is on the list” on their behalf. Instead of increase the commission, they doubled your daily leads as reward for brining new referrals. This mantra is right, but meant the list that YOU built yourself and track each email you sent.
CON# 9
few of my leads seem to be inactive (Not Available). One day, I went through my new email list and found that a few of my subscribers were using the emails related to their domains. Even after going to check to make sure my chosen domain was live, I found it had expired. It’s not a surprise that the best leads won’t provide their email address easily.
CON# 10
MLGS Sale page has misleading information for new comers to email marketing business model. MLGS says in their promotional videos that you don’t need a website to make money, if you buy an MLGS package from them. then tell you after the purchase that you should create some videos on YouTube. Plus writing positive reviews (To rank on Google) to drive organic traffic to MLGS page sale in order to have referrals (sales for MLGS). sort of paradox, isn’t it?
The new marketers may don’t know that email list can be built originally by driving organic or paid traffic to landing pages. So the MLGS hunds the fish they can, and you will accept as it is because you are very new to marketing industry and went to wrong place to learn (See below table to read more about my #1 recommendation to do business online).
Not Pro and Not con. just Business Strategy,
MLGS’s founder sells the leads who related to make money niche/home business opportunity niche. At the same time, offer 100 leads more (Money on the list) as soon as you have active referrals to MLGS. I think this was done for a purpose. It is to make your first priority to promote the MLGS to increase your daily leads with low commissions.
Now you know all about MLGS. You can decide to built your own list for your specific niche or just buy the leads to make email list. To understand more, I made the below comparison between Wealthy Affiliate and MLGS to know what I meant.

Conclusion and Final Verdict
This email marketing platform has been made in the way cannot be pointed as scam. it provides leads looking for making money online and the MLGS itself is what the leads looking for! However, some members could sell the leads other products other than online work opportunity but this is guessing work.
The real business opportunity cannot be based on guessing. This construction of MLGS as business focus on profit not offering honest help to the leads. This is why I did not provide you with any bonuses to overcome and CONS.
After all this cons I provide you with, I think it is better to stay away from the MLGS, and learn how to do your online business the right way.

Hi Friend,
This is a very helpful and detailed review on My Lead Generation System. I have seen advertisements for My Lead Generation System, so was wondering what it was all about. After reading your review, I will not be tempted to buy into the program. There are just too many cons that I do not like, the worst one being the cold leads that one is provided with.
The upsells that you are not told about before the time, is another con that puts me off. I agree with Wealthy Affiliate being the better choice. Thanks for sharing.
Have Great Day.
Hi there,
Happy to help.
Have nice day.
Hello Safia,
I used to be a member of My Lead Generation Secret and bought into all levels where you get leads. I stopped using them because the leads were not allowed, had several of them replied back how I got their contact information without their consent.
The best practice is to get organic leads (Build Leads) and not get leads from My Lead Generation Secret (Buying leads). I recommend anyone using this type of service be cautious.
I like your review.
Thanks.
Hello Jannette,
I was there too around 3 months. I never been contacted by the leads, but I found that they opening rate is very low… and during 3 months I got 8 sales of MLGS only.
There is something fishy about it.
I have a lot to tell about MLGS and updating of this review coming soon.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Have great day wit Wealthy Affiliate.
Hello Safia,
This is insightful review. Although my lead Gen secret is not a scam and the delivery of 100 leads daily looks juicy but the fact that this leads will be difficult to convert as it is a great challenge.
It is better I grow my email list organically at less cost and with higher conversion rate. Worst of it is that the list does not cover a wide range of niches that drive me mad when I choose to send offer to the leads.
Hi friend,
You cannot say a scam until you try and see their value.
When they claim that their leads will make you living and no need for organic traffic anymore, then you find the converting very low..then you will change your opinion.
The MLGS testimonial you found on sale page was done before and at the beginning of mlgs launch. That time they care about quality of leads and they choose the best of best leads to get rocket results.
I tried the MLGS for 2 month without results at all, then I complaining to the support…after that I got sales each week and this may I said may from their side (send me buyer not janky leads!).
Have nice time.
This is a fantastic and comprehensive evaluation of My Lead Generation System. I’d noticed ads for My Lead Generation System and was curious as to what it was all about. I will not be lured to buy into the program after reading your evaluation. There are simply too many disadvantages for me, the worst of which is the cold leads that are offered.
Another disadvantage that turns me off is the upsells that aren’t disclosed ahead of time. Wealthy Affiliate is, without a doubt, the better option. Thank you for providing this information.
No body like up sales.
To know the legit of any product, apply tricks and see if they give you the silly up sales for FREE, if they do, then you know that the product not worth your time before the money. This what happen with me exactly. I got the up sale free!
Run for your time.
Thanks for the information. I find with any kind of leads you buy, no matter how cheap or expensive they are, that they are all cold cold cold. It takes time to warm them up, no matter what. I think the best way to generate leads that are at least somewhat warm is through your own website.
Hi Lynn,
Great conclusion. I hope every body reach it without trying and wasting money and time by reading this article or similar to.
Yes, collecting leads through your site is the best way as your contents warm them up and they understand the upcoming emails and even respond quickly too.
Take Care.
I definitely agree with the comparison chart between Wealthy Affiliate and the Lead Generation. I also think Wealthy Affiliate is the better way to go. What use is paying for very cold leads and some of them may not even be relevant to your niche. Upswells put me off, I absolutely have this red light happening when upswells appear and everything sounds too good to be true. I definitely would go for Wealthy Affiliate, thanks for the review and eye-opener on Lead Generation.
Hi Ruth,
No brainer to know that Wealthy Affiliate is the very right place to start any online business even Ecommerce store.
the monthly cost of MGLS ($30/ month) is higher than monthly cost of Wealthy Affiliate through Black Friday offer ($24/month only).
The results from Wealthy Affiliate can appear literally after publishing even 5 articles, while MLGS needs to email cold leads and make them warm to buy and sometimes report you as spammer!
There are too many to talk about such cold leads systems!
Take Care.
This is a very helpful and detailed review of the Mi Lead Generation System. After reading your review, I will not be tempted to buy the program. there are too many flaws that I don’t like, and the worse the cold guidees that are provided to me.
Do you have a recommendation for another strategy?
HI dear,
I recommended this platform to start learn the core of Email marketing specifically and the Affiliate marketing in General.
Hope this more clear now.
The red flags outrank the pros I would say. I am not well-versed about email marketing, but I understand from your review on MLGS that it is not at all worth the time, money and effort. In any time of business, time and other resources are of essence. I appreciate your sharing of this informative review, to warn us off before we regret spending precious time and money.
Wealthy Affiliate is still the best option that I would recommend like you.
Thank you and God bless you,
Chuna
At last, I save one and increase the awareness about MLGS.
Have Great Time.
Hello Safia
I have to say that this is the first time I have heard of My Lead Gen Secret. This review helps people to know what they are signing up for. From reading the review, I also don’t feel that it is worth the time or money. You can’ t really get many leads without building a relationship with people.
As far as the done for you mailer, since it only emails one time, I would like to know how often is that? One time a day? I personally have to have some type of trust in whomever is sending me a marketing email.
Thank you for this review.
The Trust is every thing through doing any online business and especially email marketing.
This business just provide cold email lists which does not know you already in order to build trust and make sales and the same time pay MLGS. It is a joke.. lol
The right way is make contents and create your email list according to that contents and then start Email marketing as in this case, the leads are already hot and very relevent to niche (content).
Have Nice Day.
Thank you for your neutral review of My Lead Gen Secrets. I have heard of them before in my affiliate marketing journey but hadn’t put the time in to vet the company so I am glad you did and I stumbled across your page so I can make the decision to not go with them after all. Wealthy Affiliate on the other hand, although a different kind of model than My Lead Gen Secrets, has a LOT to offer for both those just starting in the business and veterans alike! I am excited to try them out and see where it takes me!
Wealthy affiliate can teach you how to do the email marketing the right way and not the way MLGS did.
The MLGS collects the emails using advertising agency and they use the correct ways to do that which explained on Wealthy Affiliate training.
So what is the best, let others hunt fish for me or fish myself and build skills the right way?
Have Great Day.
I promise that I’ll keep my reviews very well done.
