LLI to Polaris=the north star=Northstar+UWS

January 6th, 2010 Rusty 2 comments

Many may wonder with the lackluster performance of Polaris Media Group, where have all the high profile advisors gone that all once spoke of this being the opportunity of a lifetime and being so firmly behind it?

If you were familiar at all with Liberty League International then you know all about the meaningless propaganda spewed out to get others to jump on board with you.  It’s no surprise that in time all the negative effects of these worthless and fake testimonials would lose their value.

U.S. based Liberty League International decided to go “International” in Australia and the storm of controversy and joining together of the people scammed out of large sums of money, quickly brought down the rapid take off they seemed to at first enjoy.  Eventually being declared a illegal pyramid scheme they had no choice but to quickly rebrand.

Although rumored to be something longtime coming, that timing and hastiness of the product release showed otherwise.  Registration dates of copyrights and other materials only supported it more.  At any rate, longtime coming or desperate attempt to save the Liberty League people, it seemed to fail terribly.  I predicted it coming, and predicted it failing. When you have all the same high profile people tied to an illegal pyramid scheme, and then tied to a new opportunity that is basically the same thing, it’s bound to meet failure.

Then there is the scientology thing, a Pandora’s box I’m not even gonna open.

It seemed pretty quick that Polaris wasn’t gonna produce the same results Liberty League did when it took Australia by storm.  So it was no surprise either to see people start jumping ship.  Many have left, for all different stated reasons.  Most, if not all, have rejoined some other opportunity, many very similar to what they left.

So what are they doing now?  Many seem to be laying low and not putting themselves all out there, seems obvious why that might be.  One thing I have come across lately is a thing called Northstar Global Marketing.  Northstar…aka  Polaris…  Yeah, so anyway, Northstar Global Marketing.  For $47 bucks a month they will send you the “Entrepreneur Newsletter”.  Guess who is behind this one… Tony Rush, John and Shannon Lavenia, and Gene Braxton and a mention of Unified Wealth Solutions.  Those are familiar names huh.

Being linked now back to the people that were involved with Liberty League doesn’t surprise me they would call it the “underground” newsletter. 

Don’t get me wrong though, Tony and friends know there stuff when it comes to marketing.  No matter what LLI was at its core, it was made successful by those that hung it all out there and marketed it, and all those scummy advisors that lied, cheated, brainwashed and stole from people to get them to join up with big promises of endless income.  But it couldnt have been done without high profile marketing players acting as anchors for the business to tie itself too.

I don’t subscribe to the newsletter so I can’t speak of its contents or value being worth $47 a month.  I wonder if it is a newsletter full of bogus business opportunities like the old LLI or the new and unimproved Polaris and such.  The only thing that would make it of value to me is if it were truly about marketing a business, as I know this is something they can do.  As far as finding your legitimate business opportunity that will last long term and produce constant and stable income, and not require you to constantly jump from business to business to business, I am not convinced this is something they can help you with.

Anybody trying this newsletter?  Reviews and comments welcome…

Polaris Media Group Members Leaving?

December 1st, 2009 Rusty 6 comments

The web is abound with information about Liberty League International, now doing business as Polaris Media Group, as well as the many higher profile people involved with it.  Many people joined but anybody that has much knowledge on them could tell you that there were less than ten big players within the group.

A comment came today that had me revisiting Ozsoapbox.com once again.  It was stated that Tony along with some other had left the hyped Polaris Media Group.  I unfortunately couldn’t find any evidence of that on the site but did go beyond that to just some more reading all across the web.

Tony Rush as most know, is or was one of the high profile figures of LLI and Polaris.  Having visited this site and commenting several times, something I haven’t seen him do on many other places that focused on the bad of these business opportunities.  Usually it seemed he stuck to the member forums and places that promoted this business. 

I do have a particular interest in Tony’s status with Polaris Media Group.  We have had somewhat limited dialogue on several exchanges and his direction with these companies and if he has left, would be important to know.  With the history of comments and things said by him, it would be considered unusual that he suddenly would leave, it would be like me suddenly joining Polaris.  Everyone would be like “WTF?”

Many people are talking and posting things, nothing would be better than hearing it from Tony directly what’s going on right?
