Welcome to my review is the 3 Step Method a scam?
It seems every time I turn around there is another product on ClickBank that is a total scam which is starting to give me a real bad taste for ClickBank products these days.
The problem I am having with them is that a lot of them just keep claiming you can make a lot of money by using the product that you put on autopilot and start reeling in the cash overnight.
This, of course, is not the case and this one is no different.
Before we get started I think it’s important you know that I am not associated with the 3 Step Method in any way. If you are looking for an honest opinion on this program then keep reading as I reveal the truth.
Congratulations by the way for taking the time to research the product before purchasing it. This is a great step in avoiding scams while you search for a legit program to make money with.
If you have not already done so, you can read my article on “How To Know A Scam” here, this will help you spot most of the scams out there.
In this review, I will go over what to expect from the 3 Step Method and the chances of you making money with it.
OK, let’s get started…

The 3 Step Method Program
Owner: Unknown
Product: Affiliate Marketing
Cost: $37 plus upsells
The 3 Step Method claims to be a training program where one can easily learn and apply their 3 easy steps to start making money right away. Not just any money but a lot of money.
To be honest with you this is the typical claim you see all the time from scams. They use these tactics to attract the newbies into their system by offering a quick way to make money which is false because there are no quick ways of making money.
As I mentioned this is another product from ClickBank which seems they are putting one of these fake programs out regularly lately.
To learn more about the program you have to end up on their landing page or website which looks like this.
If you click on the above picture you will see the same image popup. Don’t bother to put your email in because more and likely you will get spammed till the cows come home.
They Want Your Email
They want you to put in your name and email and try to convince you that they won’t spam you or share your info yet they don’t even share their own name with you.
What a Joke…
They want you to trust them and go into business together but refuse to even disclose who you will be dealing with.
Many of these fake sites are a way of collecting emails to sell to others. The emails are sold to other marketers where they will send offers upon offers to you to buy.
This screams SCAM all over it.
The other thing that screams SCAM is the fact they don’t share anything with you about what the program is about. Just some story how he got rich by finding the secret loophole and want’s to share it with you.
When you give them your email address you will meet a guy that seems a little out of place with the program. He is definitely not the owner and seems to be some random guy they threw in to fill the spot.
The landing page refers to a team of internet entrepreneurs with a proven track record yet don’t even mention who the creator was and we know it was one guy according to the video because ‘He’ came across the secret 3 step method.
The video wasn’t very long but poorly created and comes across as fake to an experienced person.
The truth is you just can’t believe anything about the whole program.
3 Step Method Training
Ok, let’s get into what they call the training. They claim it’s 3 steps all you have to take to make money with this program.
Here are the 3 steps they outlined:
(1) Choose Your Niche
In any business, you must choose a niche you wish to target. A niche is anything that you are interested in and wish to talk about it. For example, if you like to run then Running can be your niche and the products you use for running can be your defined niche.
They don’t go into detail as I did, all they say is you have to find the niche that works for you.
Yes, you need to pick a niche but this is not enough, the training is not clear or detailed enough to teach anyone about a niche.
(2) Find Your Digital Assets
The digital assets they are referring to are the social media platforms. Find the social media platform you wish to advertise your webpage on. Once you have your webpage build you will advertise on your favourite social media platform to bring potential customers to the page.
Again this is not very clearly explained and leaves one with more questions than answers.
Yes, you can indeed use the social media platform to advertise and is also the best form of advertising for your webpage or blog site. They just don’t go into the topic enough to be of any use.
(3) Earn Your Commission
This is the part where you find a suitable product to advertise on your website or blog site. If someone clicks and buys the product then you will get your commission.
So far the steps are correct however there are a lot of little steps in between these 3 BIG steps and it’s not fair to say you can make money with these 3 simple steps because clearly, it takes quite a few more steps.
Along with requiring more steps you will as a newbie require a lot more detail in the training to even come close to understanding how affiliate marketing works.
In my opinion programs like these just give affiliate marketing a bad name because when a newbie gives this a try and it doesn’t work for them they assume affiliate marketing doesn’t work which is not the case at all.
This type of training doesn’t work, it got nothing to do with the affiliate marketing world.
If you’re interested in making money as an affiliate marketer go here and learn about this free training. This is where I learned to become an affiliate marketer, you won’t be disappointed.
Website Platform and Hosting
They do not offer any Hosting services so you will have to purchase this service elsewhere. Not only the software but you will also have to purchase the training on how to set it up and use it.
Some training programs include the website platform and hosting with it however there are only a few that do it because of the cost. The training I mentioned above does include it.
3 Step Method doesn’t even talk about a platform let alone how to set one up. And of course, they don’t talk about hosing your webpage either.
All this requires real training and you can’t just go out and do it on your own. You need guidance and support to set these things up.
The Community
This training does not support a community where like-minded entrepreneurs can share ideas and help each other to grow.
To me having a community is vital to the success of the members and without one it clearly shows this is not a legit training program designed for the customer.
I don’t recommend joining any training platform that doesn’t have a community, and not just a community but one that the students are engaging in and are happy with the results.
The True Cost to Join 3 Step Method
Yes, the cost to get started is $37 however once you are in you will be offered upsells in the typical way that these scammers do.
They draw you in the door with the $37 upfront cost.
Then they off you a chance to triple your earnings for a small fee of $97
And after that, they offer a complete ‘built for you’ package with a website already built for you for $147
But they are not done yet, to gain access to their insider secrets that will launch your business to the 6 figures a year it will cost you just $47
So now for a total cost of $328 you think that’s not bad to have a webpage set up and bringing money in for you that will make you rich right?
WRONG!
You see the ad was fake, no owner, false claims and now what do you expect to get from these upgrades?
That’s right, the same BS.
None of these programs will get you anywhere close to making money. All you will get is a lot of wasted time and money.
How can they lie like that? Simple, they get away with it. And even if they got shut down they will have two more up in its place by next week.
This is why I created this website to help educated anyone willing to hear the truth about these scammers.
How do I really know?
You see the one thing they don’t mention in all of their BS is the traffic. That’s because without traffic you don’t make a dime. And even with traffic, you won’t make a dime if it doesn’t match the content you have on your webpage.
3 Step Method Testimonials
So far we have no one claiming to own this BS of a program, the program is nothing but a smoke cover to get your money so what do you expect to find with the testimonials?
Yeah, you got it, fake as well.
So I did some looking around for paid actors on Fiverr and who do you suppose I found?
The guy on the sales page is an actor that they hired to pretend to be a part of the program, hey guys meet Luis…
According to his Stars, he seems pretty good and has been around for some time.
Because of BS like this, you really can’t go it alone. There is plenty of good folk out there that can truly help you however it can be difficult to find them trust me I know I have been where you are now.
And, as suspected, the actual testimonials are fake as well, right from Fiverr.
Who Can Benefit From 3 Step Method?
I think it’s pretty clear to see that no one will benefit from this program except the owners themselves who stay hidden.
And the sad thing is that you won’t even come away with any knowledge to help you, there is take little training inside of this BS program
It just amazes me how someone can sell a shady product like this.
Sorry but if you sign up for this you are basically throwing your money away.
If you did buy this program there are a few things you can do:
- try and get a refund ASAP
- Contact ClickBank and inform them about it
- Contact your bank or Credit Card agency and inform them about it.
What I Like About 3 Step Method
Nothing, I don’t like anything about this BS program, sorry but I have to tell it as it is.
What I Don’t Like About 3 Step Method
Everything, I don’t like anything about this program.
- The training is not what is advertised to be
- outrageous money-making claims
- Fake owner
- Fake testimonials
- Training videos too short to even learn the basics.
- That it was designed to be a scam
Conclusion
To answer the question is the 3 Step Method a scam?
Yes, it is…
…this program has nothing but Red Flags all over it especially if you compare it to my article on ‘How To Know A Scam‘.
To me, it’s clear whoever put this together meant to trick you into paying for nothing. I think it’s a shame ClickBank is actually promoting these kinda programs. They claim they don’t support these types of programs but with this one, it’s clear that they are.
For the above reasons, I DO NOT Recommend a 3 Step Method program.

Wow! This is absolutely outrageous. It sound like they have even been very lazy in the content creation even to sell the product. As you say, the fact that they don’t even say who is behind it and what their credentials are speaks volumes.
Also, after spending your money on all of the upsells, your will still need to learn Facebook ads and of course, pay for them!
I can’t stand these businesses that prey on inexperienced people who are just hoping for the best. Clickbank should be taken to task for allowing these programs on their platform. They should be accountable in some way.
Thanks for taking the time to share this.
Best,
Jean
Thank you for dropping by today Jean. Yes, I have to agree with you that ClickBank should be made accountable for offering these programs. ClickBank claims they check every one of the products they offer to make sure they are good. Clearly, this is not the case which indicates they are not to be trusted either.
And if you read my review on ClickBank University you will see that even their product is not all that great. When I contacted them they say, “Our training is one of the top programs out there”.
I told them to check their community comments, is full of nothing but very frustrated people looking for answers but no one responds to them.
This is why it is so important to do your own research unless you fortunate enough to have someone guide you.
My advice is…
If anyone is looking to get into affiliate marketing the best training program is the one that I took, you can click here to sign up for a free account.

Cheers
Hi Rick,
Wow you nailed them down. I heard that the 3 Step method is suspicious but never imagined that it’s such a terrible scam.
Two thumbs up for the exposure!
I am so tired of checking out a program only to discover they never tell you enough and want you to buy before even seen what it’s about. The program you recommend, will it show what it’s about and not try and upsell me?
Sorry, I am just frustrated trying to find a way to learn this online thing. I believe it’s possible but don’t want to waste any more money.
Thanks again
