Today we will take a look at something that is a very hot program named JVZoo Academy. What is JVZoo Academy? A scam or a legit opportunity for you? Can you make a lot of money with it and will it be something for you or not? These are some of the questions this review will focus on. Got a feeling this one will be very interesting so let´s go!
Product: JVZoo Academy
Website: Academyjvzoo.com
Owner: Sam Bakker (Product Creator) and also JVZoo
Price: $47 per month or a one-time fee of $297 + 2 upsells (if you buy them)
Who is it for: People who want to make ALOT of money online
Overall rating: (3.7 / 5) (But only recommended for some)
Introduction
Have you heard about JVZoo before? If not it is a platform where both vendors or affiliate marketers can join and make money. Anyone is able to join and if you aren´t a vendor (product creator) then you can join and selling other peoples products as an affiliate.
Now, one of the absolute top earners of the platform has created a product that will teach you how to succeed as both a vendor or as an affiliate marketing and that is the product we review right now name JVZoo Academy.
What is JVZoo Academy really about?
So, What is JVZoo academy? Before I explain and show what it is let me tell you what it is not so we got that out of the way first.
- It is NOT some kind of a pyramid scheme or MLM business model.
- It is NOT a “get rich quick scheme”
Ok with that out of the way, let´s talk about what it really is about, or more correct, show what it is all about (click video below to see)
How does it work?
In this course (or academy) you will learn how to create (or grow your existing one) online business from A-Z.
You will be provided with:
- Video training
- A community
- Software
- Downloadable training guides
- Sams personal work processes and cheat sheets all included.
- Support
- And much more
The Academy will show YOU the exact methods Sam used to earn over 3 million dollars selling his own products… and how he generated over 1.2 million dollars by promoting other people’s products… And how he paid out over a million dollars in affiliate commissions in the past 12 months alone.
a blueprint showing every process and system he followed to be a successful 7-figure marketer over the past 3 years. With nothing held back, countless case studies, community support, and stacks of proof.
This membership-style program also lets users (you) proceed at your own pace, and benefit from regular monthly updates.
The cost of the product
There is (right now) an initial cost of the product of $17 + either $47 per month or a one-time fee of $297 to join this academy and personally I think that is an absolutely fair price.
However, this price is only going to be at that price point during the launch week, after that it will (most likely) be a monthly cost so if you want to save some money on the membership I suggest you act now and get the program for the one-time fee of $297 instead of paying the $47 monthly subscription cost.
Also, keep in mind that you have a 30-day money back guarantee so use the 30 days to see how you like the program and if it is something you can see yourself doing first if it is not your cup of tea then simply get your full money back refund without any questions asked. Everything is not for everyone.
The other products (2 upsells)
Personally I am not a big fan of upsells, however, it is rare to buy ANYTHING nowadays online or offline without being offered one or a couple 🙂
When you buy a meal at McDonald’s you are (most likely) directly after having placed your ordered presented by upsells in the form of an extra big coke or maybe some extra sauce, right? That is an upsell. When you buy a t-shirt in a store you are most likely offered a 5 pack of socks right after. That is also an upsell. They can both be beneficial and are always presented right after you buy something.
Anyways, it is always up to you if you get the upsells and sometimes they can actually be a lot more interesting than a bigger soda at Mcdonalds 🙂
Like in this case
Here is the upsells of JVZoo Academy:
Upsell 2 – $97 (One Time fee)
60-day “action plan” + Software – This extra feature is designed to help you avoid distractions, keep focused and getting great results. Each day you’ll get a personalized plan with a demo video and guide showing you the EXACT steps you need to take to stay on track.
This is like having a really serious “butt-kicking” coach but without the price tag, a personal service like that normally costs 🙂
Recommendation: If you think this sounds like something you would benefit from I would recommend you to get this extra upsell.
Upsell 3 – $197 (one-time fee)
6 weeks of LIVE coaching from Sam himself – This is something Sam has NEVER offered in his past. You will get personally coached by a real “online money making” pro.
This can suit perfectly for you if you need extra support to stay accountable and take action until you get your desired results.
Recommendation: If you want to dig deep and get really serious about things I would absolutely recommend this opportunity as having a mentor is the absolute best way to success in anything you want to be great at.
Who is Sam Bakker?
The owner Sam Bakker is already a famous person in the “online marketing world” and you can easily find his story on google. He is a young (born 1988) and VERY successful entrepreneur from New Zealand.
He started his first business in high school. Later on, he invested money into that times hottest trend (the Mp3 Player) and made a lot of money from it.
Nowadays he is a public speaker, consultant, and product creator. He also cashes in over 7 figures per year the last 4 years only from his own products and by selling other people’s products (in the form of affiliate marketing).
Is JVZoo Academy a Scam?
So, is JVZoo Academy a scam or not? No, it is not a scam, it is of course legit. First of all, there would be no way that JVZoo would have allowed the program to exist on their platform if it wasn´t. More importantly, it would not have been allowed to use the name if it didn´t provide HUGE value to the user (you).
Also, when you are dealing with guys like Sam Bakker you can be sure that you are in for some great learning as he is a “make money online rockstar” I guess you could say 🙂
The guy is not your average “guru” and didn´t get where he is by luck, he has been launching products before and also got a consulting company and also other business, if you want to see one example you can have a look here if you want. (opens in new window)
To become great at anything you are going to have to put in the time and effort, there is really no way around that. However, having a mentor WILL help ALOT. So, if you are planning to become very good at making money online then I cannot name a better mentor than Sam Bakker as he has been making 7 figures for the last 4 years… and he started from absolutely scratch…
Are there any guarantees?
Are there any guarantees that this will work for you? Well, like I always say, there are no guarantees that we even live tomorrow… However, there is a 30-day money back guarantee so if you for any reason aren´t satisfied with your purchase you can get all of your money back without any questions asked.
Also (in case you didn´t know) keep in mind that PayPal is a payment option for this program, and with PayPal, you ALWAYS have the right to get your money back on whatever you buy.
How is the support?
I put a lot of weight on support when it comes to programs like this one as it is crucial (especially for beginners) to be able to ask questions and also get the answers fast. So, how is the support on the JVZoo academy?
It is actually very good as it offers 24/7 support by a lot of experts and also very fast.
Important update January 1st, 2018!
After being a member of JvZoo Academy for almost 1 year now I have to say that I am a bit disappointed in the support of the program.
First, they take hours just to see your question, then when you finally get contact with a representative the problem can take weeks (!) to solve… This is not ok and something that takes the overall rating down A LOT.
The good
- Step-by-step training (at your own pace)
- Learn to create a sustainable, long-term business from A-Z
- AWESOME training on how you can create your own digital product and launch it successfully over and over again!
- Owner with great reputation
- 30-day money back guarantee
- Learn to sell both others and even create and sell your own products
- And much MORE
The bad
- Relatively high price (on the other hand… with all the info you got it is worth every penny)
- It will require both time and effort from you (especially if you are a complete newbie)
- The support is SLOW
Why should you (or should NOT) buy it? (NOT For Everybody)
Ok, I know this is told by many to be great both for people who just want a small extra income online or for the ones that are after the BIG money.
However, personally, I would NOT recommend this to someone that is only after making a small side income or someone that is “not sure” about what they want.
Why?
Well, first of all, because of the price and second of all, if that is what you want there are many other alternatives that are even free to get started with so why spend this amount if you aren´t even going to be serious about things later on?
If you need tips or advice on what would suit you I will be glad to send you in the right direction to other things that might suit you better, just leave a comment below this post or send me an email on John@startmakestopwaste.com
Final words and verdict
Verdict: LEGIT
Overall rating: (3.7 / 5)
This is not only legit but also an absolutely awesome opportunity for anyone really too absolutely change their life.
Personally, I love this kind of step-by-step programs that teach you exactly how and what to do to succeed. That is actually the exact same way that I learned myself how to make a living online in the first place and this one should have got a 5 stars out of 5 possible rating IF it wasn´t because of the very SLOW support help.
Your teacher, in this case, is a real pro and there are not many (if any) that can say they know things better than this guy in the “make money online” niche. When JVZoo also goes ahead and gives permission for this product to use their name and standing behind it, you can be sure to a 100% that you got real value in your hands.
No Nonsense Advice
Important to mention: If you are a beginner and maybe also think it is very expensive to buy the program + the 2 upsells, then just buy the main product and take it from there.
Even if I can see HUGE value in both upsells the main products really have all you need, the rest is up to you.
Buy a book on mindset and/or consistency and you should be able to create a full-time income (and ALOT more) from the main product only as it is absolutely packed with all the things you need.
To sum it up:
This is actually the first ever JVZoo endorsed (and approved!) training system and that is also one of the big reasons why this is so interesting. As this is something that has never been done before it makes me, and are sure, many others understand that:
“If JVZoo want to teach you how to become a great seller, then the training must be AWESOME”
Why?
Simple answer, because the more money you make the more money JVZoo makes…
Am absolutely sure that you will do great if you take this seriously and follow the steps and stay consistent in your learning. You are a smart person so I will leave the choice up to you like always 🙂

Thanks for a great comprehensive review. I can understand why you would say it is not recommended for everybody.
I try to keep myself apprised of the latest information out there for growing an online business. There are a lot of scams out there, doesn’t look like this is one them, and could have some viable information.
Might have to check this out.
John says
Yeah if you are serious and dedicated this is absolutely for you!
Thanks for your comment,
All the best

Hi John, that was an extremely thorough review of JVZoo academy. It was very helpful as far as getting me to commit to a program like JVZOO. Even though as you have said that the price is pretty pricy. I for one , like a program that at least has a free trial of some sort. But thank you got this review of JVZOO it gave me alot of clarity now.
John says
Glad you liked the review and found it helpful 🙂
/Best regards

Hey John, I first discovered your site when a friend tried to talk me into the “4 Percent Group”. I did some research and found many red flags, but it was your review that persuaded me it was not the best program (to put it politely). Anyway it created trust.
Is the JV Zoo Academy open to people worldwide. What I mean, is would there be any downsides to people not living in the US?
The price doesn’t seem too steep if this is really a good opportunity.
Thanks
Wendy
John says
Thank you Wendy, am here to Help and nothing makes me more glad than to hear that I Help My readers like yourself out. About your question, this works wherever in the world you are. Thank you Wendy and Please feel free to come back and share your experience with the program later on. /All the best
Jen says
I’m always curious about various online businesses out there and what they have to offer. I’d never heard of JVZoo Academy before reading your post, so this is a new one to me. It sounds like a very similar opportunity to some of the others out there since it offers training, support and a community of other people wanting to learn.
It sounds like it’s definitely something to look into, but I may be hesitant to jump in and pay for it automatically to get started learning about it. I appreciate the honest and helpful review of what this program offers – I’ll be looking into it to see if it has what I need. Thank you for sharing!

Keep in mind that you have a 30 day money back guarantee so if you are curious go for it and give it a try!

Aden says
I want to do this if it really works. I have all day every day to do this but I want to know how wealthy affiliate compares. Should I stop wealthy affiliate and start doing this other program or do both or just WA? What is the best way to make the most money if I have all the time and motivation in the world. What is the optimal solution? I would love to know what you think. Please help me out. Thanks a bunch buddy.
John says
If you are a newbie I would recommend WA as it is (at least in my opinion) alot more newbie friendly and easy to follow step-by-step instructions. Not saying that JVZoo Academy is bad there but not even close to the simplicity to understand and not to mention the super fast support that WA got.
Not sure with what you mean the best way is to stay consistent everyday and you will start to understand more and more that there is no limits here (speaking of earning)
/Hope that helps and make sense?
Monica Bouteiller says
I’m glad this is a not a pyramid or an MLM business. It’s always nice to know something about the owner … it’s important for me to know who I’m doing business with. I have heard of Sam Bakker and I have a lot of respect for him.
I like that 30 day money back guarantee and their 24/7 support. I am that learn step by step person and so I think this could work very well for me.
I’m not a member yet but I’m certainly looking at joining.
Thanks
John says
Thank you! Glad you liked the review. Yeah I absolutely would recommend to give this a shot as I see huge value in the course, especially as it will teach you how to even create your own products.
Keep in mind that the price will increase in 2 days to a monthly cost.

Have you been training with JVZOO? You said you purchased it in May. Do you have anything more to add?? I found them by reading a WA training on articles. Everything on article marketing is dated 2010. The person who wrote the training had a link. I clicked on it and it redirected to JVZOO. Just curious.
John says
Yes am actually taking the training right now, it is A LOT to do and it WILL take time 🙂 I would say after getting to know the course for around a month now that WA would suite a beginner a lot more and I would recommend you (if you are a beginner) to start there instead. Not sure if you are but if you are then look at this instead: https://startmakestopwaste.com/the-wealthy-affiliate-review-2016-insider-information

Hi John
Are you aware of the SFM (sixfigurementors program)? If so how do you think this compares with JVZoo academy and Wealthy Affiliates? as I’ve just joined SFM but since reading your JVZoo review and some others, i’m thinking that i might have chosen the wrong program as a newbie
John says
Have actually not heard of the SFM program before, is it a new one?
To be clear, I think nothing compares to my #1 recommendation when it comes to newbies, it is absolutely free to try and I got some bonuses for you if you join through the link in the WA review on this site.
Hope that helps?
/Sincerely
