If you're typing away at Google with hopes that it'll spit out the right online business for you, chances are you've been at it for a long time. It isn't easy sifting through the limitless options. Well if this sounds like you, I wouldn't be surprised if you came across team 16k, with the picture of those two dudes standing next to each other. I would imagine that you stumbled across this article because you're researching Chris Campbell's and Matt Sunderland's home business, and hopefully I'll be able to reason with you to help you decide whether team 16k is a suitable business for you.
One thing you should realize is that team 16k is simply the "face" of their business, kind of like a mascot for a team. They use Team 16k as a way to brand themselves among competitors in the ACTUAL business they promote, which is the Reverse Funnel System. Reverse Funnel System has become a big player in the game of online marketing most recently. I'm positive that you've come across the trademark of a Reverse Funnel System page, which is the guy in board shorts, lounging in a chair with a laptop in front of him. If you're not familiar with the Reverse Funnel System, let me break it down for you real quick. It's a "system" geared towards helping individuals make money with a travel membership club called Global Resorts Network. Similar to Team 16k, the Reverse Funnel System is a team that markets Global Resorts Network. As confusing as that sounds, it means that Team 16k is a team that markets the Reverse Funnel System, and the Reverse Funnel System is a team that markets Global Resorts Network. However, the real focus is Global Resorts Network. They offer great discounts to members who want to stay in high end resorts but not pay the high prices. I'll spare you the details, but the heart of the matter is really the cost of becoming a Team 16k member, which by default is a Reverse Funnel System member. It is a whopping $3,000 to join, and on top of that it is suggested that you have an additional $5,000 available for advertisement costs. That is a total of $8,000 to start your business. This is not a reasonable price for your average American. To really top things off, it also costs $300 a month to maintain a Reverse Funnel System membership. They are really targeting a very specific income demographic.
Now, I don't want to imply that Team 16k and Reverse Funnel System are bad businesses. There are individuals who have seen a lot of success with them. However, if you can't afford such a high entrance fee, does that mean that all of the other options aren't as good? Not at all. The Reverse Funnel System simply teaches members where to place ads and how to generate traffic through online advertisement. Little instruction is involved. What you really need to ask yourself is whether or not this puts you in a position to truly be a professional in your area of expertise. To be honest, with these programs you can't say that. If you walked away, the knowledge you'd be left with is how to put pre-written ads in specific areas. Try taking that and being successful elsewhere. You can't.
It would be more beneficial to find a business that will do the same as Team 16k and Reverse Funnel system and provide you with tools that have proven to be effective, but also teach you how to become an internet marketer. That way, you can be creative in the promotion of your business and not just do what everyone else is doing. When you have the necessary skills to market ANYTHING online, you can be successful with any program or product, period.
The System I'm hinting to is Derrick Harper's Wealth Funnel System. Similar to the Reverse Funnel System, it gives you access to products that buyers want, and it even shows you how to advertise to the right demographic. But one major difference between the Wealth Funnel System and other programs is the education. Derrick Harper has 13 years of experience in the realm of internet marketing. He has worked with big companies such as Pfizer, Wyeth, Merk, Johnson & Johnson, MTV Networks, Weber Grills, and many other highly recognized brands. The man knows his stuff, and he has not only put together a very profitable business opportunity, but he teaches you the ins and outs of properly marketing online. With what his system teaches you, you can find success with any business venture you take on with the internet. Very similar to the "teach a man to fish" analogy, the Wealth Funnel System teaches you how to market online, where as other simply teach you how to advertise their specific products.
So if you've been on the fence with whether to pursue the Reverse Funnel System, or maybe you're saving up for it and in the meantime you've been looking for other options (and I wouldn't blame you), I urge you to look for the business that is the right cost for you and the one that will educate you on how to market online like a pro.
Wishing you the best in your home based business, Joe Marquez
