Hey Guys, thanks for taking a look at my Low Hanging System Review!
I recently started getting a lot of emails promoting the Low Hanging System and after checking it out a little bit, it really sounded too good to be true.
So what did I do?
Yep, I went ahead and purchased the program so that i could create a real Low Hanging System Review for you guys!
My preference for building an online business is with affiliate marketing, but many of you would like to sell physical products online.
Here's the problem...
The biggest problem for online sellers of physical products is finding the right products to sell online.
That is exactly the problem that Low Hanging System solves.
I went through the whole program for this Low Hanging System Review.
Here is what I found.
What Is The Low Hanging System?
The Low Hanging System is a training and implementation course which teaches you how to sell print on demand products such as mugs, posters, pillow cases, jewelry, etc., on all of the big internet sales sites, like Amazon, ebay, etsy, without spending any money.
Low Hanging System also includes the software that you will be using to find profitable niches and integrates with GearBubble.
What is GearBubble?
GearBubble is a print on demand business, as well as an online marketplace that will dropship your products and fulfill all of your orders.
Who Created The Low Hanging System?
When doing a Low Hanging System Review, I think it is important to take a look at who created the product and whether or not they have created other successful products and businesses.
The Low Hanging System was created by Don Wilson and Rachel Rofé.
Don Wilson
Rachel Rofé
Don Wilson is the founder of Gearbubble and is responsible for more than 100 million dollars in online sales.
Don has been a successful online entrepreneur for many years and has several online training products and softwares under his belt.
Rachel Rofé is Don's girlfriend that works with him at Gearbubble and has proven that the Low Hanging System works by consistently generating over $5k per month utilizing the very simple system.
According to Rachel's website, she has been featured in Entrepreneur, Fox News, Huffington Post and CNN, but I could not find confirmation of any of those from any other sources.
Low Hanging System Review: Is It A Scam?
You can't do a Low Hanging System Review without answering the question: Is the Low Hanging System a scam?
I think one of the reasons that the Low Hanging System looks like it may be a scam is because it teaches how to use Gearbubble to sell products online and it was created by the founders of Gearbubble.
This doesn't make it a scam.
Many businesses use training to help people create businesses by using their own business as a resource.
According to Wikipedia, a scam is "an attempt to defraud a person or group after first gaining their trust."
There is no attempt to defraud here.
Don and Rachel do not hide the fact that they are involved with Gearbubble and they provide tons of proof that the system works.
Speaking of which...
Let's take a look at how the Low Hanging System works.
How Does The Low Hanging System Work?
The Low Hanging System is a 7 step system designed to teach you how to build a Print on Demand business by selling physical products, like mugs, with text sayings printed on them, on all of the major e-commerce platforms like Amazon, ebay, Etsy, and more.
Let's take a look at the 7 steps.
1. Find Profitable Niches
The Low Hanging System shows you how to find niches that are profitable and already proven to make money and sales. It includes the SpotWins software which can find these niches quickly and efficiently.
2. Find Great Sayings
This part of the training teaches you how to find great sayings to print on the mugs, or whatever physical product you choose.
This part can actually be fun, as you search through different sayings to find something that will make people buy.
I found myself thinking about the different memes I would see on facebook, even coming up with sayings while in the shower, LOL.
The training also includes a Holiday Guide, which is useful, because this is obviously a very big part of this business.
Also included is the "Watch Me Get Sales" case study that is an over the shoulder training that is very helpful.
3. Set Up Your Account On The GearBubble Website
This part of the training shows you exactly how to set up you account on Gearbubble, which is where your products will be printed and shipped from and it is also an e-commerce site that can get you sales.
4. How To Find And Use Keywords
This section will teach you how to find and use keywords on all of the e-commerce sites so that people will find and buy your products.
In my opinion, this is probably the most important training included in the Low Hanging System and one that you should master if you are going to be successful in this business, or any online business, for that matter.
5. Launch Your Business On Amazon
This section teaches how to launch your business on Amazon.
One of the valuable features of the Low Hanging System and working with Gearbubble is that you can get your products on Amazon right away, as opposed to waiting months to have your seller account approved.
The Low Hanging System also includes user friendly mug description templates designed to help you get sales on Amazon.
6. How To Post And Promote On Other Platforms
While Amazon is the biggest platform, you are definitely leaving money on the table if you are not utilizing all of the available platforms.
This section will walk you through how to post and promote your products on ebay, Etsy, Bonanza and more, complete with checklists to make sure that you don't miss any critical steps.
7. How To Use Gearbubble To Process Your Orders
The Low Hanging System includes one year of free access to Gearbubble for processing all of your orders.
Yes, they do all of the work.
You just send them the order and they print and ship it directly to your customer.
It is the perfect system for building a passive income.
That is the 7 step process of how the Low Hanging System works.
Now let's take a look at the Low Hanging System Review of the features and bonuses.
Low Hanging System Review: Features and Bonuses
Here we are going to take a look at exactly what is included in the Low Hanging System.
Seamless Integration
The Low Hanging System integrates seamlessly with all of the top e-commerce platforms, making it very simple to post and promote your products across all venues, including:
- ebay
- Amazon
- Spotify
- GearBubble
- Etsy
This one-click integration allows you to reach millions of potential customers quickly and easily.
SpotWins and SpotNiches Software
Depending on which version of the Low Hanging System you buy (there are different packages that vary in price), you may get access to the SpotWins and SpotNiches software.
While the software can be helpful, it is not necessary and there are manual methods taught for finding the exact same thing that the software finds, it just takes a little longer.
My point here is, you don't need the software to succeed with the Low Hanging System.
Design Forecaster Software
The design forecaster software forecasts how many designs you need to launch each day in order to meet your sales goals.
Again, not a necessary piece of the puzzle for success.
5 Boxes Of Free Mugs
The complete Low Hanging System includes 5 boxes of free mugs to help you get started.
Each box contains 36 mugs, so that is 180 mugs that you can sell for free.
The average profit is around $14 per mug, so that is over $2500 for free!
That's great except...
You have to take the mugs when you first get started and at that point, you really have no idea what is going to be a good seller.
So I think for many people those 5 boxes of free mugs are just wasted unless you get lucky with a popular design right off the bat.
Free Done For You Designs
Speaking of designs, the Low Hanging System includes 100 done for you designs that you can use on any product that you choose, mugs, jewelry, pillow cases, the choices are endless.
This is a nice bonus, but I have to believe that these designs have been pretty heavily marketed already.
Holiday Success Blueprint
As I stated earlier, the Holidays are going to be big producers in this business and the Holiday Success Blueprint is a very effective guide that will help you make the most of the Holidays.
Inventory Management
The Low Hanging System includes an inventory management feature which is very helpful in determining your inventory and helping you to track sales and ordering.
Facebook Group
The Low Hanging System Facebook group is full of members that are all students of the system and it is very helpful to see what others are having success with, as well as what problems are arising in other people's businesses.
Live Weekly Calls
Depending on the package that you purchase, every week you will have access to a live support call with a mentor that will help you by answering any questions that you have and giving you guidance on how to quickly and efficiently build your business.

Low Hanging System Review: Final Thoughts?
When I started to do the research for this Low Hanging System Review, I worked hard to keep an open mind and be objective.
What I found is a system for building an online Print on Demand business that could work, but, like any other business, it is going to require a lot of hard work.
I mean hard work every day.
If you are looking for a get-rich-quick scheme then you are in the wrong place, but just a word of advice before you leave.
There is no such thing as Get Rich Quick.
Any online business that is going to be successful is going to require a lot of hard work.
I still prefer building an affiliate marketing business with Wealthy Affiliate, but if you would rather get into building an online business with physical products, this is one of the best ways to get started that I have seen.

Hi JV, thanks for the breakdown. The system now costs $1500 so do you think it’s still worth it?
Hey Rachelle,
Yes, I think the Low Hanging System is still worth it. It is by far the easiest business to start in 2021 and if you look at all that you get for your money, you will not find a better value for starting a profitable business. There is a lot of buzz about this type of business right now and that is because it flat out works.
Thanks for stopping by Rachelle!

As a potential buyer of the
Low hanging system….I appreciate your educated opinion! As I can’t afford to take a flyer on something that’s not going to give a return for initial investment & labor invested….in a “reasonable “ amount of time….
“within months of purchase “…of program…& a strong support system for a person without a background in technology!
Thank you also…for the lead towards …affiliate selling…
another area….I’d somewhat explored!
Your review was clear…concise..& covered my major questions. I’d like to have answered …if a laptop will work?? If so… what size screen…speed…& capacity???
Thank you
Yvonne
Hi Yvonne,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about my Low Hanging System review!
To answer your question, yes, a laptop is perfect. I use a macbook pro exclusively for all of my online businesses.
Size, speed and capacity are all personal choices, but I would advise to get the best that you can afford.
Thanks again Yvonne!

Hi JV
I’ve watched the webinar this morning. She gives the impression that this business is quite passive but your review mentions a lot of hard work. What hard work are you referring to? I don’t mind hard work at all and have a lot of free time in between running my current business and would like to fill that time with something productive – but does the system tell you how to do that hard work or are you left to figure it out on your own?
Thanks
Lisa
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for reaching out!
As you know, any business is a lot of work. The Low Hanging System is somewhat passive after you get everything set up and running smoothly, But
it is definitely still work.
The system does teach you how to get set up, choose your designs and going live, but you should always be testing your designs and doubling down on the good ones.
Thanks again Lisa, hope this helps.
JV
Do coaches make more money than the people running these businesses? I was wondering why they would coach, if this business was so profitable.
Hey Cynthia,
Thanks for taking the time to reach out!
Yes, it can be very profitable to help other people start a business and succeed following a system that you developed, tested and have proven that it works.
This is the case with the Low hanging System.
It is a proven system that works and if you are willing to work it and work the system, you can be successful with it.
Hope this helps,
John
Thank you. This. Appears to be a one year contract. What happens after the first year? Do they own the rights to your contacts and slogans? Can you renew your license for the same terms and conditions?
I think you should reach out to them directly. Then you are sure that the answers are correct.
Thanks,
John
Hi John – thank you for the review. Why would I not jump straight to Gearbubble and sign up for this. It looks like LHS is basically an integrated service for this platform but that Gearbubble does all the populating and heavy lifting.
Ecom drop ship business – buyer beware
Please be careful and ask questions.
The business purported to be a hands free, drop ship opportunity with 38% profit margins, selling novelty mugs, T-Shirts, etc, on-line. They claim to provide a fool proof system that does all the work. The Seller’s only job would be to come up with about 900 catchy phrases, post them on their program and keep them coming, while waiting for the cash register to ring.
Upon deeper digging, I found unsettling information that could have caused a serious financial setback and a large commitment that I feel was undisclosed during the the promo/proforma meetings and webinars that I attended.
I also found that the numbers as reported, could not be relied upon as each coach had a different set of base line costs and profit percentages, therefor leaving major doubt as to whether or not you would ever be able to recognize a profit with this system.
Meantime, the moderators from each session added more unexpected and hidden costs with each session. The biggest surprise was the slip up when a moderator responded to an email question of mine:
We were told we did not have to buy any inventory. No up front costs.
However, the moderator responded that the Seller’s (us) would have to front all of the costs of sales- including inventory , packaging, handling, shipping, listing fees, etc., virtually as soon as the product was purchased, as it would immediately be charged to the credit card that we are required to keep on file with the company.
This is the first I heard of this.
The kicker is that it appears that you are only paid at the end of a month or 30 day cycle ( unclear)
So, bottom line – if the touted sales projection of 20,000 in gross sales this month actually happened ( per their several claims), the credit card that they require you to keep on file ( which was not disclosed before contract), would automatically be charged as much as 81% of your gross sales- at the point of sale- if you go by their last proforma estimate of a 19% profit margin. Which by the way, dropped significantly from its original starting point at 38% – at the contract signing.
Leaving you potentially holding a fairly large bag- not knowing when you will actually be paid, and what ever else might be deducted, such as charge backs.
It also appears that you are solely responsible for customer service, so if there is a complaint, you may be expected to refund the whole transaction, through no fault of your own- even though you may have only netted 19% or less.
They claim that you are not building a brand, so there is no repeat business, but you must keep your reviews good or it may be grounds for termination. This left me scratching my head.
The way I read that, is that the Sellers ( us) must bear all the responsibility for the expenses and damage to their reputation if Low Hanging Systems, Inc- partner/affiliate, Gearbubble, fails to deliver, deliver on time or sends a shoddy or broken product.
There doesn’t seem to be any incentive on the company’s part, to ensure that the Seller’s reputation and purse is not damaged.
I was quite astonished to find that many of the company’s policies, procedures and required financial and legal commitments were not fully disclosed until after the initial deposit phase, and that the proforma cost and income projections appeared to drop radically.
Thanks a lot Cynthia! These things are not mentioned in the webinar.
Hi Donna sounds like you are saying that my card gets charged upfront for sales made thru their platform before I see any money from the original sales? Is that correct?
Thank you so much, I have been watching these videos for a few years and wondering some of the same stuff you just mentioned. I appreciate you taking the time to do all the research . If it seems to good to be true it usually is.
It seems opinions on the efficacy of this Low Hanging System are varied. What more assurances can you give?
The Low Hanging System is the same as any other money making system. You get out of it, what you put into it.
Many people purchase the system thinking that they are going to make easy money and then they are disappointed when the money doesn’t roll in.
It doesn’t matter what system you use to make money, they all require a lot of hard to work to consistently make money and The Low Hanging System is no different.
If you are looking for fast, easy money, I’m here to tell you there is no such thing.
If you are looking for a system for making money when that system is worked the way it is taught, then the Low Hanging System is one such system.
Hope this helps,
John
What is the best design software one can use in designing these items
Once year one is complete what is the renewal cost for the software for gear bubble. Are there any hidden costs beyond the initial $1500. Sounds like a great program but I want to know what the costs for running after year one.
Thanks,
Gary
LOW HANGING SYSTEMS
What a scam. I sent my money to them $1998. Later they sent me a contract to sign. After looking over the contract, I decided that this program only wants to teach you to learn to sell MUGS, MUGS, AND MORE MUGS (I did not want to sell mugs) and that only if you do their program, to the “T” that. at their discretion, you might get your money back. I did not sign the contract and asked for my money back. NOPE!!! They are going to keep it anyway.
BAD BUSINESS
Hello everyone, I joined Rachel Rofe’s businesses classes in Feb, 2023… I want to share my experience with her LHS system… So, I started last year Feb in joining her POD (Print On Demand) business tool and I payed the 1500 $ fee in order start the “successful” e-commerce business like they promote it… Well after 1,5 year, following their LHS courses, being coached, etc etc, I created about 3000 listings, uploaded on my two stores in Amazon and Etsy and I now (March 2024) finally stopped this bad experience: 3000 listings and 10 units sold till now. It costed me more than the predicted K sales of Rachel… I conclude that only Rachel, Amazon and Etsy are the winners in this story and I often asked them to show me what I did wrong to end failing in my efforts… I never got any decent answer, only to keep on doing what I am doing and one day I would succeed!? I realized that if one wants to succeed on selling in Amazon one has to invest in advertising in order to get it’s listings promoted on Amazon’s or Etsy publishing pages… There is no way at all that even with 10.000 listings one can compete with the more than 10 million ones on Amazon stores. I heard from other similar cases of people who started the same way as I did. I only wanted to share my experience in order to warn good believing people who think that this is an easy business to earn some additional income… I spent days, week, months of intense creating job, more than the 10 minutes per day that Rachel is announcing on her promoting site… Just think twice and be careful not to loose money in this adventure… Good luck to everyone!
