If you're in the process of the seeking a home based business to either leave your job or simply make more money, I'm willing to bet that you have become quite familiar with Ty Coughlin's Reverse Funnel System. It seems to be everywhere. If that name doesn't ring a bell, perhaps you're more familiar with the capture page with the shirtless, long haired beach bum lounging in a chair with a laptop. It's really picked up some steam over the past year or so and they've made some very bold claims as to how much money members are making. I'm sure you asked yourself if "$5,000-$10,000 per week" and "6 and 7 figure returns" were really possible. Well, it's not really a question of whether or not it is possible but if it is ORDINARY for most members. I'd like to shed some light on these claims and propose an alternative choice that may change your mind about the Reverse Funnel System.
First of all, let's break down Ty Coughlin's Reverse Funnel System. You MUST pay $50 for an "application" to get details on the system. You THEN realize that the source of all this supposed revenue stems from another opportunity known as Global Resorts Network. The information that follows is quite similar to what you originally read before forking over $50, which is colorful vocabulary that beautifully paints a "you're going to be rich" picture; and you're left with the decision of whether or not $5,000+ is worth this opportunity. If you didn't have a dispensable $5k in your pocket, I'm sure you went looking for answers and consequently stumbled across this article.
Now, one thing to immediately consider in your evaluation of the Reverse Funnel System is the COST. It costs $3,000 to join, around $2,000 to $5,000 in startup advertisement costs, and then a $300 monthly recurring fee. That rings up for a total of $5,000-$8,000 up front, then $300 a month..That's a LOT! Especially for a middle income class individual. The only person who can look at those figures and say "Let's do this now!" are people who already have money to invest and most likely look at these types of opportunities to further INCREASE their riches, not MAKE them. So what does this mean? It means that if you join, a large majority of the people you are marketing to are people WITH money. The little guy is pretty much left out of the picture, and that's a lot of potential prospects thrown out of the window.
Furthermore, what can we learn from knowing the suggested advertisement budget? We can determine that the Reverse Funnel System relies heavily on paid advertisement. So those who have more money to invest have a higher probability of success. Sounds like an unfair advantage to me.
There are tons of ways to drive traffic to a website, which in essence is the name of the game with most programs like this. You are given a page that converts visitors into buyers, which leaves you one job: send visitors to your page. If you join the Reverse Funnel System, it's obvious that the preferred method of acquiring these visitors is advertisement. What about the countless types of free traffic? I doubt that the Reverse Funnel System devotes much time to these.
Also, what if you can't afford the Reverse Funnel System? Does that mean that other less expensive opportunities don't size up to RFS? Some would think so; but the cost of a program doesn't necessarily justify how much success you'll have with it.
This brings me to my next subject. Provided you had all of the skills and training to be profitable with any business, could you do it? Theoretically, yes. You always find successful individuals with any company. This is usually because they know what they're doing, and they have experience and the knowledge. If you're new to internet marketing, unfortunately this isn't you. But it doesn't have to be that way. If you know how control internet traffic and direct it to a website of your choice, the options are truly limitless.
What am I getting at? If you have all the skills necessary to market a product online and can find people looking to buy exactly what you're selling, you can be profitable with any affiliate program out there. Go and Google "home based business" and pick a random program. The experienced internet marketer can make money with it, which means you should switch your thinking. Don't ask "Will this opportunity make me money?", but instead ask "Will this opportunity teach me to make money?" There's a big difference between those two questions.
The only affiliate program that I have seen with a vested interest in teaching its members how to properly market online is Derrick Harper's Wealth Funnel System. Similar to other programs available today, it allows its member's to provide a product that people want. But more importantly, it not only provides access to high yielding ads but it properly educates people how to market online, PERIOD. It doesn't just teach blind advertisement, like other competitors. This ensures your success with not only the Wealth Funnel System, but any other online business you encounter. The fortune is in the skill set.
This concludes my article on the Reverse Funnel System. I hope it'll be of assistance in your evaluation of Ty Coughlin's opportunity. Whether you decide on the Reverse Funnel System or any other program, understand that your success isn't dependent on one key skill but many. Try to find the program that will teach you ALL of those skills.
Wishing you the best, Joe Marquez
