JVGenie Review – Find JV Partners and Affiliates
December 14th, 2010

Author: I had the pleasure of getting to test drive and do a JVGenie review and I was happy with what this tool does, so I wanted to share it with you.
Today was one of those days when I got a JV request, glanced over it – and DIDN’T delete it. Most of the time they’re not even worth reviewing. But what always sticks out to me is when someone presents me with a useful resource that solves a question many of YOU ask me about for which I have no good answer.
Those of you who have products or services of your own always ask me where to get affiliates or JV partners. All I could say to date was, “try the JV section of Warrior Forum or start hunting and pecking on Google.”
Not really good solutions. So Chris sent me a basic rundown of what his tool does, gave me a link to the sales page, and offered to set me up a dummy account to test drive it. I watched the video and it was a COOL tool! The video has the wrong price in it, though, but otherwise, it was great!
I logged into my dummy account and made a quick video of me doing it for you so you can see how easy it is to use. Now I did a quick and sloppy test (the one on the sales page is better), but you can see it here:
The tool is called JV Genie – and it goes out with your keywords, grabs the right affiliates/JV partners for you, tells you their traffic and more, gives you their contact info (including profiles to their social sites), and it allows you to email them right from the system or print out a mass snail mail letter using a template like the one you use in an email autoresponder system so you write one letter and it inputs everyone’s name and site.
If you want to watch the official demo – which is better than mine, then you can do that here – but remember his pricing is WAY wrong on the video.
Worth it? Yes – I’m going to test it out for my new Ghostwriting Cash product to find freelance ghostwriting sites and try to secure some JVs with people.
Should you buy JVGenie? NOT if you’re unable to make your mortgage, pay the electric bill or put food on the table! It’s a luxury tool, not a must have – but it’s cool when you an afford it and need it.

Hey Tiff,
Thanks for the heads up on JV Genie! It looks pretty slick, time saving tool for finding JV partners. I’ve used the Warrior forum as well. I’ve also outsourced folks to find potential JV’s and put a spreadsheet for me in different niches which can be a hit/miss thing. So it’s exciting to see someone create a software tool to do it.
I agree Alan – it’s a neat tool
Thanks for the lovely video and the awesome review since it was something I was considering anyway – so perfect timing!
This is the kind of review I like Tiffany. Honest, and even has a ‘Don’t Buy’ caveat. 8)
I’m not looking for affiliates or joint partners, but if I was I would prefer to do it myself, not have an automated system. Having a direct mail background, I would also prefer to ‘mail merge’ the letters myself.
Someone under time pressure may find this software useful though.

Can someone help me with configuring my email settings using gmail for JVGenie? The help link for gmail does not work in the software. Thanks
Hi John,
Yes you can always do it manually, nothing wrong with that approach, but if you want to find the ebst one’s FAST – there’s no other way to do it without JVGenie.
Going one by one is how I used to do it. I timed it and to getht eh full info that JVGenie gets in about 1.2 seconds use to take me 7 minutes to get manually.
So if you were to find 100 affiliates, their traffic, alexa, pr, full contact, and social media profiles plan on spending AT LEAST 7 x 100 = 700 minutes (11.6 hours) doing it.
John, our system has a “mail merge” feature as well so you can merge in the website owners first name, email, address, whatever info you want into the email or direct mail letter.
Check out our demo video and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
Thanks,
Chris
