Reverse Funnel System Review: Scam Or Not?
If you’ve looked to the Google search engines gods to show you the perfect online business, I’m betting you came across the Reverse Funnel System more than a few times. You’ve seen it before, the shirtless “beach bum” with a lap top sitting between his legs, lounging in a chair outside. It looks pretty cool, but the heart of the matter is whether or not their claims are legitimate. I’m sure you were excited to read about making “$5,000-$10,000 per week” and “6 and 7 figure returns”, but the thing that brought it all to a screeching halt was the unusually high start up cost. Am I right? Before you stress over it anymore, I’d like to divert your attention to another program that costs less than half as much, but can be equally as profitable. But first, let’s break down the Reverse Funnel System and put it under the microscope.
First, let’s pick apart the process and examine each piece. Everyone starts out by filling out an “application” which costs $50. Once that is finished, you are provided with all of the details on the system. You then learn that the Reverse Funnel System actually promotes another company known as Global Resorts Network. It’s a travel membership club that offers discounted stays at high end resorts, and the $3,000 start up cost is ACTUALLY a fee for signing up with Global Resorts Network. So basically, you have to put your confidence in the Reverse Funnel System and decide if they are the best program to help you earn profits with Global Resorts Network.
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 does the suggested advertisement budget tell us? It says that advertisement determines the amount of profit; which means that people who join the Reverse Funnel System and have more to invest, make more money; assuming that the system works as it says it does.
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 the price tag that the Reverse Funnel System carries is outside of your budget? Does that mean that the less expensive options won’t be as good? Some would think so; but the cost of a program doesn’t exactly determine how successful you’ll be with it.
This brings me to my next point. Given the right information, and the proper training, do you think you could become profitable with any program simply because you know how it ALL works? If you’re new to internet marketing, I’ll just answer that for you…NO. I hope that isn’t a slap in the face to you, but it’s true. Whether a program sucks or not, you can theoretically make money no matter what. It’s just a numbers game, as is anything else. If you can get a million visitors to any given page that sells something, some people are going to buy. If a buyer can tell themselves that the product is worth its price tag, transaction over. That holds true if the product is a piece of gum, or a million dollar house.
What am I getting at? If you know how to properly market online and you can find people looking to buy what you have, you can literally sell anything. It’s an invaluable skill. Choose any search engine, type in “home based business” and have your pick of the litter; the experienced marketer can turn a profit from that program. So instead of asking “will this opportunity make me money?”, ask “will this opportunity TEACH me to make money.” A small difference in wording completely changes the question.
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. No matter what business you decide to pursue, make sure that your success is dependent on your own efforts and not just the promises of the company.
Wishing you the best, Joe Marquez
