Mike Filsaime – Butterfly Marketing
I have read many Internet Marketing forums where Mike Filsaime has a very bad name. I was therefore quite shocked to receive details of his “Butterfly Marketing” system via my membership of the Masterclass. I thought maybe the forums were wrong, but I had enough doubt not to bother reading the ”Butterfly” system.
I now see that the information I had was correct, Masterclass members are complaining in our own forum about “Mr F”. I am not going to pussy-foot about, “Mr F” is Mike Filsaime and I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole.
I’ve no idea what “Butterfly Marketing” is because I didn’t read the sales pitch, but I do know that Mike Filsaime makes it extremely hard to cancel subscriptions. This is why he is GREEDY. The subscriptions are so hard to cancel, he ends up with 3 or 4 monthly payments that his customers had no intention of sending.
Luckily with my previous knowledge I have not wasted any time or money dealing with Mike Filsaime. I recommend that my blog readers do the same as me, ignore anything that Mike Filsaime sends you. It’s a simple strategy, and you won’t regret it.

Hi John,
I have read the comments in the MC forum about MF and notice that some are trying to defend him. All I can say is that the excuses about his staff being to blame brings us back to the old saying “THE BUCK STOPS HERE”, enough said.
I never bought from him and unsubscribed around 3 months ago from his pitches. It seems to me that some of these affiliates would promote anything as long as it makes them money.
Keep up the good work.
Regards,
Bill
Unfortunately Bill, the people who have been stung with extra charges seem to have written it off to experience. That's what I always did, but I think this blog should bring matters into the public arena. John[Reply]
Hi John
thanks for dropping by my blog and for the inspiring comment.
Just a couple of months down the road in the masterclass program and really enjoying.
It seems strange that if the ‘butterfly membership package’ is suspect, then why is John Thornhill at the moment heavily promoting it – the free software download, and multiple real-life examples where it is being successfully implemented

I think the Masterclass is excellent value for money. I have no personal experience of the Butterfly system, but if you subscribe and then change your mind, it seems that you have to jump through a lot of hoops to get the monthly payment cancelled. John[Reply]

Isn’t this the best money making idea yet?
[Reply]
Not really. It's just one of many, many, money-making ideas. It's the owner of these programmes/systems that make the REAL money, not usually the person who buys the latest Internet fad.John

That’s the best way Ana, or just unsubscribe to everything Mike Filsaime sends you, that way you don’t have to bother deleting it.

It’s a pleasure Dave.
There are plenty of ethical marketers to choose from, so you don’t need to bother with the greedy, hard sell people like Mike Filsaime.
