Carbon Copy Pro Scam? Business Review

By Joe Marquez

If you've seen Carbon Copy Pro and you're considering it as a potential business venture, I hope you understand what you're getting into. On the other hand, if you know very little about Carbon Copy Pro and you're trying to find out just exactly what it is, you can read this quick review of their opportunity and avoid paying the $49 they charge for the same information.

Assuming you didn't pay that $49, you probably didn't know that Carbon Copy Pro is NOT the actual business or product that members deal with. Carbon Copy Pro is simply a "system" that aids members in making money with a separate opportunity called Wealth Masters International. Wealth Masters international is a mlm company that specializes in financial education. Their products include asset protection, financial planning, tax minimization, and more. Furthermore, they offer a referral program for individuals that would like to hire advisors to aid them with financial management. These "advisors" are known as their "alliances"

Joining carbon copy pro at their price of $8,995 buys you all of this financial material. However, you don't HAVE to pay this much to gain access to Wealth Masters International's products. They have lower price points. The least expensive of their 3 memberships costs $1,995 and it buys you ALL of the financial education material that is offered with the program. It is known as their M1 package. Their second membership (M2) costs $8,995 and it buys you the M1 package along with a ticket to their 3 day "wealth" conference that further expands on the principles taught in their financial program. The third and final membership (M3) costs $12,995 and it buys you the M1 package plus a ticket to their another conference that lasts 5 days.

Most of this information isn't mentioned when you become a Carbon Copy Pro member. The only price they mention is $8,995, which is the cost to become a Carbon Copy Pro member at the M2 level. Furthermore, they suggest that you have an additional $2,000 to $5,000 in extra money for your advertisement budget. That brings the total cost of joining to a minimum of $11,000. And that's not all, there is a $150 monthly fee. That makes Carbon Copy Pro the MOST expensive online opportunity available today. It is approximately 4 to 5 times more expensive than most other online businesses. That is very costly, especially with the average American household income being less than $40,000 a year. Spending more than $10,000 is simply too much for the majority of people. That means that the people who can afford Carbon Copy Pro either have a lot of money saved up or their part of the higher income class, and everyone knows that you're marketing to a much smaller percentage of the population when you deal with higher income individuals. You've got to wonder how long it is before this market becomes saturated and sales come less frequently.

Also, how useful is all of this financial wealth information? If the cost to join is more than $10k then chances are that the people who CAN afford the business already have people taking care of their finances. And god forbid if someone pulls funds from their savings to join, in which case they don't even need the information because they have no money to organize or protect.

These are all things you must think about in your evaluation of the business. If the products have a place in the market and people ACTUALLY have a reason to join other than hoping for riches, then maybe Carbon Copy Pro has something going for them. But it's a tough call to make, and one you have to make yourself. If their claims of making "$250,000 your first year" or "100 new millionaires by 2012" weren't so heavily marketed would you still have an interest?

If you're looking to spend less but don't want to give up the potential to make six figures a month, I'd like to talk about a different opportunity known as the Wealth Funnel System. Its creator, Derrick Harper, is a seasoned veteran in the world of internet marketing. He has 13 years experience and has made millions online working with big companies such as MTV, CMT, Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson, and more. The Wealth Funnel System provides 7 different streams of income, with the first stream being focused on teaching you how to properly market online. It's the type of education you can take and be successful with any online business venture. Not only that, but it is one of the very few businesses available that offers a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. Visit www.wealthfunnelsuccess.com for more details.

It is up to you to decide which route you take. I hope this information was valuable, and more importantly I hope you came across it before forking over that $49.

Wishing you the best success, Joe Marquez
