Is Free Toolbox a Scam or a Legit Way to Make Money Online?

March 8, 2017 //  by John

free-toolbox-reviewThe Free Toolbox system has been around for a fairly long time now, but longevity doesn’t ALWAYS mean that it’s a great program.

In this Free Toolbox review, I’m going to show you what this system has to offer to its members and if it’s worth your time and hard earned money.

I have been involved with many programs like this and I think I know more about them than the members who tried to get you to join them.

Although these programs are all ran the same way, I still have to get involved to see if they are somewhat legit or just another pyramid scheme scam.

Let’s get all your questions answered so you can move on knowing exactly what it is you were getting involved with rather than wasting your time.

Free Toolbox Review


Name: Free Toolbox

Website: www.freetoolbox.com

Type of Business: MLM

Price: $1.25

Overall Rating: 1/5 stars

About Free Toolbox


So the Free Toolbox system has been around since 2013 and that is actually pretty impressive.

I can already see HOW they have been going for a long time, for the simple fact that the price is extremely low.

When there’s a GREAT landing page and a very low price to go with it, it usually converts like crazy, especially with targeted traffic.

That’s the only reason why people are still joining after all these years and I already have a bad taste in my mouth even with the first part of this review.

How Does It All Work?


There are no products to sell whatsoever on Free Toolbox, the only thing you can market is the program itself.

it consists of a 2×2 matrix, from which you recruit people into the same system that you just joined.

However, your payout differentiates depending on what level of the matrix you are in.

Basically, you pay your initial $1.25 and when you recruit someone, they will be under you.

Since it’s a 2×2 matrix, you only have to find 2 people that goes under you.

Therefore, the ones that you brought into the system means THEY have to recruit another 2 people also.

When this happens, you get paid a total of $5.

The Fees

However, out of your $5 made, $1.25 will be deducted and put back into the matrix.

Now if you want to move up to the next level, you can choose to do so by putting $2.50 back into the system.

Another “upgrade fee” will be deducted from your account balance as well and this is going to be $1.

So you just made $0.25 cents!

Don’t quit your day job just yet!

The upgrade fee is different on every level. The $1.25 will continue to be deducted from your account with every 4 people you recruit while you are on level 1.

If you wish to make more money from your downline, you’re better off upgrading your account to the max level.

The maximum level is $20, so your payout with every 4 people you recruit will be $60.

Your levels will upgrade automatically, but you can stop this from happening in the back office just in case you want to keep it simple until you know how it all works.

The Levels Of The Matrix


There are 5 levels all up.

Keep in mind – the numbers below are what you can earn in that level for every 4 people you get to join.

Level 1 – $3.75

Level 2 – $7.50

Level 3 – $15

Level 4 – $30

Level 5 – $60

They give you the opportunity to “buy” the levels as well, so if you want to go right to the last level and make more money, you can.

Also, keep in mind that you have to buy each level one by one and you can not just jump straight to the last level.

Otherwise if you don’t have money to invest, simply start from the bottom and work your way up.

60 Day Minimum Requirements For Level 4 and 5


Basically, the creators want you to stay active and they do not want you to squat and wait for your money to magically appear, so they have created a “minimum” rule.

These only apply to level 4 and 5, though, so don’t forget that.

As a level 4 member, you have to recruit AT LEAST 2 people every 60 days or you forfeit all future earnings and your account gets shutdown.

As a level 5 member, this goes up to 4 people every 60 days.

By putting the pressure on the higher earners, this is how they keep the system active or it will die down.

I found their secret!

Who This Is For


This system is solely based around recruiting and I’m sure your friends and family don’t care about your new online business.

So if you are looking to sponsor them into this system, you’ll be let down, a LOT, and I’m sorry to say, but this is not for you.

On the other hand, if you’ve got a massive list of email subscribers – 5000 plus (in the make money online niche), you’ll be able to make a good amount of income from this.

You might even be able to make a decent profit from this system if you have a large social media following as well.

Again, it will have to be in the make money online niche, NOT your family and friends.

How Much Does It Cost & Where Do I Sign Up?


You can sign up with Free Toolbox by visiting their website and signing up at: www.freetoolbox.com.

You will need a sponsors name before you can begin the sign up process, so you won’t be able to join unless you get a personal invite.

The startup cost is only $1.25 and there are no up-sells unless you want to invest in the higher levels.

 

 

Pros and Cons


Pros

  • Can make you money
  • No up-sells

Cons

  • You have to recruit people to make money. Only marketers with huge email lists or a loyal social media following will benefit from this system
  • The strategies that they give you to recruit people are over saturated, you’ll be lucky to stand out from the crowd
  • Because earnings are so low, there’s a high chance that you’re going to give up due to making pennies back after putting a lot of work in to it
  • It’s not even legal. There’s no products to sell, so you’re just recruiting people. It’s clearly a pyramid scheme

So is Free Toolbox a Scam?


Without a product (not even digital) this program is crossing a very fine line between scam and legit.

I wouldn’t say this is a flat out scam, but I would definitely not recommend this to anyone looking to legitimately make money online.

Very typical program and there are literally thousands of them out there that use the same exact model to make you money.

Nothing new and definitely not going to make you rich.

What I Recommend


I have joined many programs like this and whether I wanted it to work or not, it just wasn’t going to happen.

Making money online is a wonderful thing and it doesn’t always have to be done by recruiting people either.

If you are looking for a legitimate way to make money online without the recruiting nonsense, you might want to try a program called the Wealthy Affiliate.

After years of trying to make this whole online thing work, that is the one and only program that I will ever recommend as it is really that good.

Give that a try and you will see money is really made online.

Well I guess that’s all from me, and I do hope that this Free Toolbox review has given you more than enough information for you to make a smarter decision.

If you have any questions about this or any other make money from home type program, feel free to leave them in the comments section below and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Thanks for reading!
