It was a great idea, but managed and excuted poorly. This little joke here probably describes what happened in Agloco:

There was an important job to be done and Everybody (in Agloco) was sure that Somebody would do it.

Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.

Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody’s job.

Everybody thought that Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.

It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

i agree that it could’ve been something really great. i attribute it to poor project leadership. everyone knew how it was supposed to operate, and i think it could’ve been possible to get the range of advertisers they were looking for. tsk tsk…..

As I said on Stephen’s blog, this program was destined for failure. All they had was an idea for all these people to MAKE MONEY, but no actual product. They focused so much on the marketing program, that they totally forgot about the END USER.

Contrary to what they and their biggest 2 or 3 affiliates told you, the end user is YOU. If you weren’t on the top 2 tiers (the top being the owners, the 2nd tier being the big affiliates like John) there was no way you were going to make anything whatsoever. Instead, you would be viewing ads, for NOTHING. Well, if anything, for those 2 top tiers.

How would it sound if you bypassed all the hype and marketing crap, and offered it strictly as a product. This is what you get!

-A toolbar that displays ads
-Also, displays some other crap

And that’s it!

Would you pay for that? Would you even bother downloading it?

Nope. And nobody else did either. Hence, Agloco was a failure to begin with.
