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.

Team 16k isn't the business you're buying into when you join. You're actually joining the Reverse Funnel System, which is a whole other topic in itself. Team 16k is simply a "capture page" that leads you into the Reverse Funnel System opportunity. Now, the Reverse Funnel System is another "system" that teaches you how to market another opportunity called Global Resorts Network. So essentially it works like this, team 16k is a team that recruits individuals into the Reverse Funnel System, and the Reverse Funnel Systems trains you on how to make money with Global Resorts Network. The real prize is Global Resorts Network. It's a very popular travel membership club that allows its members to visit high end resorts for discounted prices. Now, that's a lot to swallow but the real matter at hand is the buy in price of becoming a Team 16k/Reverse Funnel System Member. It will cost you $3,000 to become a Reverse Funnel System Member. On top of that, it is suggested that you also have $5,000 in start up costs for advertisement. Furthermore, there is a monthly fee of $300 a month to maintain your membership. So before you consider Team16k or the Reverse Funnel System, you will need $8,000 to start up and enough money to pay $300 a month. That's a lot for the average American.

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 that embodies these characteristics is Derrick Harper's Wealth Funnel System. Like the Reverse Funnel System, it provides you a product and shows you how to advertise online to get people to purchase it. But one major difference is that Derrick Harper strongly encourages his members to find other avenues of advertisement and to be an online marketer. The Wealth Funnel System provides a platform to start off with in your advertising methods, but it teaches you the basics in properly marketing ANY product or business online, so that you can go off and independently work with your own methods. Content is continually added to the database so you are constantly learning. No other affiliate program does this, none. Why is this education material valuable? Derrick Harper is an internet marketing pro. He has been making money online since the internet first gained popularity, and has worked with big companies like Pfizer, Wyeth, Merk, Johnson & Johnson, MTV Networks, Weber Grills, and many other highly recognized brands. He knows his stuff, and to be able to learn his methods is of great value.

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 success in any business you pursue, Joe Marquez
