I needed a cup of coffee so i hit the local Starbucks, and the place was absolutely filled to the gills. The line was a mile long, and every chair and table was taken. People were crammed in at booths, packed in at window benches, and crowded in ten to a table, everyone hunkering over their laptops banging away at the keyboard. And would you believe it? They were all network marketers! I overheard some of them talking, and quickly realized that not only were they all marketers, they all worked for the same company - Carbon Copy Pro! And it only got weirder. As the line wound its way forward, I got bored and started peeping in at what people were writing, and holy smokes! They were all writing the exact same letter! Literally every computer screen had the identical screaming headline about the "death of MLM" and how they were going to reveal "special secrets" about a mysterious concept called G.P.T. And every letter on every screen led off with the exact same byline: Location: Starbucks, 1:47 P.M. Subject: "The Painful Truth" I'm telling you, it was totally odd. Half way through I decided to split. There was obviously something funky in that coffee, some kind of Jim Jones Kool-Aid - and I wasn't drinking it! So I got out of line and escaped that stuffy little Starbucks to the clean fresh air and sunlight outside! ... Okay, so none of thisactually happened. I'm just having a laugh here about Carbon Copy Pro and Wealth Masters International and their "cookie cutter" approach to marketing... If you've been looking at Carbon Copy Pro and reading various carboncopypro reviews, you already know that I'm poking a bit of fun at the infamous "Coffee House Letter" that every Carbon Copy Pro distributor uses early on in their sales funnel. Fact is, if you were to sign up with 5 different carboncopypro sites and get on their mailing list, you'd get the identical "Coffee House Letter" in your in-box from all of them on the same exact day. Because they preach exact duplication in marketing, and just like the name of the company itself, Carbon Copy Pro - every piece of marketing is an exact replica. The problem is: this kind of marketing just doesn't work! Take a step back and look at this objectively. It's the exact opposite of personal branding, and contradicts everything Mike Dillard himself teaches with Magnetic Sponsoring, etc. So before you spend $19,995 on the M3, $8,995 on the M2, or $1,995 on the M1 so you can start promoting Wealth Masters International - get the full story they're not telling you! Bottom Line: to be successful in ANY network marketing opportunity, you have to roll up your sleeves and do a little work. You have to create unique content. You have to brand yourself. And you have to separate yurself form the crowd. When you're checking out at carboncopypro reviews, the company leaders will tell you how "easy" their system makes everything. How it "removes the human element". And you don't have to do any selling or telling. Sounds perfect. Except it's just not true. They'd have you believe that you just plug into their system and voila - money starts falling off trees. NEWSFLASH! Things don't work like that... And all the top earners in carboncopypro know this. They don't use the generic videos of Jay Kubassek to promote their business. They don't simply copy & paste the ad copy from the back office templates. And they don't use replica websites and capture pages. For their own business they do it the right way. But they don't give you the whole story from jump. And that's why so many "newbies" feel tricked or lied to, which is how the whole "carboncopypro scam" thing got started. To be fair, I have associates who are involved with carboncopy pro, and I know some folks that have left carboncopy pro for various reasons. And I can tell you that there's not acarboncopypro scam. It's a legitimate company and some people earn a living with that opportunity. On the flip-side, it is accurate to say that they're definitely a bit sneaky in how they bring people on board. They're very secretive about sharing info, starting with the $50 application fee on through the BiB presentation. There's no real transparency or full disclosure, and most new members don't even understand that Carbon Copy pro is really just a sales funnel designed to promote Wealth Masters International. As far as marketing goes, they get you to sign up believing that it's much less work intensive than it really is. It's only after you've paid your money that you realize how much work you have to put in Now, that may be fine for the super alpha self-starter go getter types. But most folks need help, some real hands-on coaching and 1-on1 training, especially when they're just getting started. And that's another area where carboncopypro just comes up short. See, there's no financial incentive built into their com plan to encourage a sponsor to spend time training you. In fact, you'll be competing with your sponsor (and everyone else using the exact same marketing materials you are) for leads and sales. The straight truth is there are more lucrative business opportunities available online where you can get higher level training and earn a lot more money with a more ethical business model... without having to pay a fortune just to find out... Choosing the right business is critical to your success online. Before you make a impulsive decision, it's up to you to do your research and get all the facts so you can make an educated business decision. To summarize: Carbon Copy Pro is a legit company and there's no carboncopypro scam. But they don't give you the whole story up front, and it's only after you've spent $2k - $20K that you realize their replicated marketing system is way overpriced, that copy-cat marketing doesn't work, and that you'll have to put in some real effort to actually make the money you want to make and live the lifestyle you want to live. And when it comes to getting trained properly, your carboncopy pro sponsor is most likely nowhere to be found.
