Is Fullstaq Marketer a Scam? Here’s my Opinion on it

If you’re wondering if Fullstaq Marketer is a scam, I would say no, but there are many questions I have about this program based on previous experiences I’ve had related to it and it’s owner which I’ll explain in this post.

Here are some disclaimers about this Fullstaq Marketer review:

1) I didn’t buy anything in Fullstaq Marketer by Kalae Kanae. However:

2) There is a previous program that was made by the same person and it was called AWOL Academy. I have a bit of experience with that program and did join one of their memberships (and didn’t have a good experience).

3) Because I am seeing a lot of similarities and between AWOL Academy and Fullstaq Marketer, on top of which the pricing is very high and the explanation of the programs is very vague, I don’t feel comfortable buying anything from it yet.

4) Overall, as I said in my AWOL Academy review, I felt (and still do) that it wasn’t a scam (and neither is Fullstaq Marketer), but there’s better programs out there in my opinion that offer more value, lower pricing and much more, for less.

5) The top alternative for me is easily the Wealthy Affiliate program (among others I will share in this post). I do also feel it’s better than Fullstaq Marketer too.

This post will show you what I mean on all of these points in a moment. So let’s begin:

My rating for Fullstaq Marketer: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Do I recommend Fullstaq Marketer? For now, no.

I see a lot of similarities between this and AWOL Academy and being that I wasn’t exactly happy with my experience there, plus being that the explanation of Fullstaq Marketer is very broad and doesn’t get into too many details, and finally combining that together with the free eBook I got for it (Freelance Marketing Secrets), I just can’t see a reason to join it yet and if it does change in the future and becomes much more clear and specific on what it offers, I would be happy to adjust this opinion.

I do happen to think Fullstaq Marketer is not a scam and it is legitimate, but I would love to see more information across the board on this program straight from the site to make a better decision on it.

Alternatives? Several:

So let me give you this “review” of Fullstaq Marketer by first explaining the experiences I had with the previous program it’s creator made: AWOL Academy. The experiences I had there prior to joining it are very similar to what I see going on with Fullstaq Marketer:

1) So to start, I found out about AWOL Academy from different sources years ago.

2) I felt the program was very high ticket, and very broad in explaining how it worked. It had about 4-5 different packages you could buy, or go all in and get them all for about $10,000 (If I remember correctly).

3) I elected to get a side offer from this program called AWOL X which I didn’t like because it was basically me joining a prelude to AWOL Academy and them trying to convince me to go further with the program. Long story short: Very little if any good training and a lot of hype is what I got out of that. I even have a YouTube video on AWOL Academy here discussing this in detail if you need proof.

4) To promote AWOL Academy, Kalae Kanae promoted a free eBook called Freelance Marketing Secrets which I did get, read through and felt was also hyped.

Now with this info and context, let me get into Fullstaq Marketer:

Much of how AWOL Academy was promoted back then is how Fullstaq Marketer is promoted now and there are so many similarities that frankly, I can’t tell if this “new” program is really new, or basically AWOL 2.0 and you’ll see what I mean shortly. Anyway:

1) Freelance Marketing Secrets is again used in the online sales funnel, but this time it takes people into Fullstaq Marketer. However, I did elect to get it and read it again because I thought it might be something new.

The look of it is, but the content is still the same and frankly, I didn’t find it very informative. Just a lot of simple talk about affiliate marketing through email marketing and examples of it with promoting Clickbank affiliate products.

2) The main page of Fullstaq Marketer also has it’s own courses/packages you can get and like AWOL, they are a bit generalized in their descriptions (I’ll go over them shortly).

In fact, one of the courses there has an identical description as one of the courses in good old AWOL Academy. Here is proof:

1) Funnel Labs (same as Pro Academy in AWOL?):

Now there are other courses in Fullstaq Marketer:

Let me give you their names and info (based on the descriptions):

2) Fullstaq Accelerator (Business Launch Challenge): $39

This is one of the first courses you can get from Kalae Kanae and before you do, you get a video explaining how it all works and in short, it’s a business startup challenge in which you learn to make sales as an affiliate through email marketing.

3) Fullstaq 101: Price unknown

This is said to a be an A-B guide to helping you create a digital business. Unfortunately the explanation in my opinion is a bit vague to go deeper into, but there is said to be a survey and 3 training videos inside this course. I wish I could provide more info here.

4) Fullstaq Onboarding (Community):

Apparently there is a private community in the Fullstaq program that you can get access to where you and other members can interact and get help from one another to build each other up for success online. I actually happen to think this is a good thing but I don’t know the price to join this. Perhaps it is an additional bonus if you buy into the bigger program or one of it’s other courses.

5) Fullstaq Edge: Price also unknown

From what I gathered this is a mindset training course in the Fullstaq lineup and helps you overcome problems and obstacles in building your online business. I honestly do not mind seeing mindset training and I hope this one delivers.

One thing I am not a fan of is how for most of these products, to get their pricing, I have to contact a number to find out more info on. At least in AWOL Academy, the pricing was right there for your reference. Here, there’s a lot more for me to do to find that out.

3 things to note in favor of Fullstaq Marketer:

So while I have mixed views on this program, I have to give Kalae the benefit of the doubt and there’s 2 things I wish to share that are more on the positive side:

The first is that there are positive Trust Pilot reviews of Fullstaq Marketer you can see in the link there (draw your own conclusions).

The second is an official Fullstaq Marketer page here in which Kalae talks about scam allegations and so forth and there is an offer to buy his program for $897 (originally $997). I am not promoting this program in anyway, so you can watch the video there and draw your own conclusions too.

Also here is another good review of Fullstaq Marketer from a marketer I trust (Eric).

Conclusions on Fullstaq Marketer:

I do think Fullstaq Marketer is not a scam, but the vagueness in the product descriptions and difficulty in figuring out the prices, plus all of this looking similar to what I saw in AWOL long ago (and not being happy with my experiences there) is not really making me feel more comfortable with this program either.

Overall, I gave a number of alternatives that in my opinion are better than this. 4 of them I am not affiliated with, and one of them I am affiliate with (Wealthy Affiliate).

Overall, I think they all offer more information on the front end, and based on the fact that I’ve seen the kind of content many of them offer, and how high value it is, I find them to be very valuable and highly recommended.

For me, the top choice is Wealthy Affiliate and you can try it free to see why I think that. The others have good training too, mostly on making affiliate marketing businesses, but I think you get the most value out of the Wealthy Affiliate program whether it be against Fullstaq Marketer or even the other alternatives to it (in my opinion).

    • Is this for Fullstaq Marketer Debbie? In general, what I recommend people do in your situation (if they can’t get a refund from the company directly) is to reach out to your personal bank or CC (what you used to pay for the membership basically) and explain the situation.
