Is the Reverse Funnel System a scam or a new business model? Well, let’s see.

Ty Coughlin’s Reverse Funnel System is an automated online marketing sytem that is used to promote a high-ticket travel product, Global Resorts Network. It is an unusual system in that what it promotes is the ability to run a serious global online business with tremendous automation…no telephone prospecting or follow-up, no explaining, no convincing, no closing, no sales background or internet marketing experience needed.

Beyond your own product purchase, the reality is that the only thing that is required for the system itself is the financial capital to get the system up and running, and either pay for traffic generation to the site or learn to do it yourself. Other than that, there is none of what is traditionally considered to be required in order to build a global network marketing business. No hotel meetings, no long hours on the phone when you wish you were with your family or out with the guys…

Wherever you go with your laptop, anywhere in the world where there’s a good internet connection, the Reverse Funnel System can work for you. Individuals are paid for product purchases, not for signing up. So it’s a clean money trail…no scam involved…disappointing I know for the scam-busters out there, but they will have to look elsewhere for a good scam to shoot down.

OK, what about the “revolutionary new business model” I mentioned? Just some hype? I don’t think so. Just stay with me for a moment…

In today’s fast paced information exchange facilitated by the internet, network marketing companies are launched with amazing (frightening, actually!) frequency. These new network marketing companies frequently find a “heavy hitter”, someone well known in the industry, to start recruiting distributors to form their distributor base for a big launch. A big media announcement is blasted out and they are “cleared to launch!”

Here’s what happens then! Hundreds of people already involved in a network marketing opportunity, smelling the sweet smell of greener grass on the “other side of the fence,” jump from one company to another, taking hundreds of teams from one company, leaving “high-and-dry” leaders who have worked hard to build a solid foundation.

There are only 2 things that can stop this from happening to you.

1. Results…if you can assist your new business partners/associates/whatever you call them in your company, to get their financial investment back ASAP, and then grow their businesses with big checks that can help them escape that nasty cubicle they’ve been stuck in for years within 90-120 days, you have a much better chance of developing and retaining a solid network of business associates on your team.

2. A different business model…what if it wasn’t really about the great product (I love our product!). What if it wasn’t about the company? (It’s a great company!) What if it wasn’t even about the marketing system?!!! (What?!!!)

What if it was about the team? What if you had a team that produced such great results no matter what they promoted that you had an incentive to go where they went? But what if this next time, when timing, science or technology develop the latest, greatest product and your team decides to jump on board with the best-opportunity-ever…this time…no one “jumps ship”…no one quits the first opportunity…everyone keeps promoting the first top-tier opportunity and doesn’t even get qualified to join in the next one until they’re making at least $10K-$20K/month.

What if it was about multiple streams of income, done together, as a team? Now that could be powerful! It has been done on a small scale, but not successfully. Heck, until the and its influence as a new paradigm in network marketing, it’s been a challenge just to build Reverse Funnel Systemone stream of income, let alone multiple streams of income!

Well, I’ve given you a few hints of things to come with the Reverse Funnel System. It’s up to you to judge now. Check out my site. Pay the application fee and find out what it’s really all about. When you get “behind that curtain,” you won’t find a Wizard of Oz, but you just might find a revolutionary new business model for network marketing.

UPDATE: While I have great regard for Global Resorts Network and still promote its excellent value, I no longer recommend the Reverse Funnel System. While people DO fail and some systems succeed (the tag-line of RFS), real leadership in the direct sales/network marketing industry involves real personal growth and learning specific skills. Systems are secondary. Good systems that encourage leadership, growth and personal responsibility are rare. Contact me for specific recommendations.

Continued from Part 1…

So here are the 5 big mistakes people make with the Reverse Funnel System:

1. Starting without adequate funding.

Read the website. It advises having $2K-$5K to begin for startup and marketing costs. There aren’t any requirements that people must begin with that, but it would be wise.

Depending on one’s internet marketing experience, it can take time to “fill your funnel” with qualified prospects. Be optimistic, but be realistic. Any skill takes time to learn. You just can’t stick your head on your computer screen and get an “instant internet marketer” download!

2. Believing that all types of marketing are equal or that purchasing massive quantities of “biz-opp seekers” is a solid marketing plan. It’s not. A good sponsor should be willing to talk to you about your budget and your goals and assist you in developing a solid pro-active marketing plan to achieve those goals in the shortest time possible. Additionally, a team forum can provide great opportunities for brainstorming and creating the right plan of action for you.

3. Believing that NO personal support will be needed by those you bring into the Reverse Funnel System.

Honestly, Ty Coughlin’s Inner Circle has some of the best training calls I’ve ever heard. There are 3 live advertising training calls a week, most lasting 1 1/2 to 2 hours. There are 8 other live training calls a week, many of which allow a Q &A time. Ty Coughlin himself opens up some of these calls to speak with team members 2 or 3 times a week. So that’s great.

And we also have email support and live online chat support throughout the day in our backoffice.

But the reality is that some people will need a little personal assistance from you. They may just want to connect with you personally, hear the voice of their sponsor, be assured they haven’t joined some “pyramid scheme” and may just need a gentle nudge in the direction of all those great Reverse Funnel System team member resources.

Our Global Mentors Team has great additional resources as well…another great reason to take a look at this through my Reverse Funnel System (hint, hint).

The Reverse Funnel System has been around now for a little over 20 weeks. In that time, it has generated almost 6 million (oh my gosh!) dollars in commissions for those using the system. That’s simply incredible!

Those kinds of results in that short period of time have created a real buzz on the internet, with people throwing out positive and negative experiences with the Reverse Funnel System.

While I sure understand the positive results, what I’ve been amazed at is the “whining” I see by grownups who “can’t make it work!”. The Reverse Funnel System is not for everyone! It’s just not. The Reverse Funnel System does all of the explaining, telling, selling, follow-up, converting to sales, etc… But it does not drive traffic to itself. That’s the marketing system member’s job. That’s our main job. It’s pretty much our only job with this system! But signing up for the Reverse Funnel System and activating the site does not bring traffic by the site. It’s not a mall!

Sometimes I think people see the dollar signs (I did!) but don’t take the time to really consider the work it will take to get those dollar signs out of their imagination into their bank account! The Reverse Funnel System is a real business! It’s not a money game. You don’t get paid just for signing people up and you don’t get paid for getting business cards, rearranging your desk or talking on the phone.

You get paid when you drive large amounts of targeted traffic to the site and they apply to work with you and pay you for the very cool product! Then those $1000 commissions start coming your way (see the payplan here). From there, things start multiplying because of a really unique compensation plan. That’s why almost $6 million dollars have been paid to our Inner Circle team members! (Inner Circle is the name of the team that Reverse Funnel System members are on. Global Mentors is the specific team I’m involved with…more on teams in a follow-up post…)

The Reverse Funnel System is a new automated marketing system. It is the promotion, explanation and sales vehicle for an international high-ticket product.

Online marketing systems have been around since “Al Gore invented the internet”! hahaha Well, you know it’s not true that Gore had anything to do with the origins of the internet, but what is true is that this marketing system is unique. Its success has actually spawned copycat systems (currently getting cease-and-desist “requests” from Reverse Funnel System attorneys!) already!

This blog is a new resource (including audio podcasts and video trainings) for those checking out the Reverse Funnel System, trying to find out if the buzz is fact or fiction, and if this system has the staying and converting power required by serious online entrepreneurs.

It is also a place for others seeking to establish multiple $10K-$100K-a-month streams of online income to find the best tools and additional legitimate opportunities to add to their portfolios.

The final focus of this blog is the coaching on the mindset needed for success at this level in the online marketing game.

If you’re afraid of big money and don’t want to know about accelerated paths to success, this blog is not for you. I don’t review ponzi schemes or illegitimate get-rich-quick schemes. I only teach what works.
