If you've been searching numerous pages of Google, trying to find the PERFECT online business, I'm sure you're a bit exhausted by the number of options you have to consider. Even if you've only been at it for a day, I'm sure at one point you've seen Chris Campbell's and Matt Sunderland's team 16k program. If you're reading this article right now, I would imagine that you're probably looking to get some information about their program, and it is my hope that I can assist you in deciding whether Team 16k is a worthwhile business for you.

Now, team 16k is really just the face of the business they promote. It's really just a branding gimmick to hide what they're truly promoting, which is the Reverse Funnel System. Most recently, the Reverse Funnel System has been a dominant player in the realm of online marketing, and I don't doubt that you've seen more than one advertisement flaunting the "beach bum" with his laptop in a lounge chair. Now, if you aren't familiar with the Reverse Funnel System, it promotes a travel membership club called GRN or Global Resorts Network. It allows its members to stay in high end resorts for discounted prices, similar to a timeshare network system. It's a great opportunity. However, the downside is the high cost of becoming a Reverse Funnel System associate. The program costs $3,000 to join and on top of that it is suggested that you also have an additional $5,000 in start up costs for advertisement. ON TOP OF THAT, it costs $300 a month to subscribe to the system and even more money if you intend to buy any other software to help automate your business. THAT'S EXPENSIVE, or at least it is for most people. They're targeting a very specific demographic, and consequently leaving out the little guy, so to speak.

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.

You are MUCH better off finding a system that will do the same as Team 16k and Reverse Funnel System,which is walk you through the motions and show you where to place ads and what websites to use. But it is better to find a program that will take things a step further and teach you as you make money, so that you understand the marketing strategy. If you are educated and taught how to use the internet as a means of driving potential buyers you your product, you can succeed in any business venture.

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.

I hope this article is somewhat helpful in your evaluation of Team 16k and The Reverse Funnel System. If you're still unsure about what online business to pursue, make sure to place as much emphasis on whether the program will educate you, just as you would with any other criteria.

Wishing you the best, Joe Marquez
