For those of you doing extensive research on Jay Kubasseks’ business opportunity and are reluctant to pay that $49 application fee to see more details, I’d like to save you the trouble and provide you with some details on what their business is all about.

If you’re still early in your research, you probably didn’t know that Carbon Copy Pro is NOT the actual business. Carbon Copy Pro is simply the “system”, or method that helps individuals be successful with a separate opportunity called Wealth Masters International. Wealth Masters International is a mlm company that specializes in financial education. They offer a range of products from asset protection to financial planning, tax minimization and more. Also, for members that seek professional help and would like someone else to manage their finances, Wealth Masters International has a list of referrals known as “alliances.”

When you join Carbon Copy Pro you gain access to WMI’s products. However, Carbon Copy Pro charges more than necessary. Wealth Masters International has 3 different levels at which you can join. The first is known as M1, and it buys you all of the financial material. It costs $1,995. The second level, known as M2, costs $8,995 and it buys you the M1 package along with a ticket to their 3 day conference that further expands on the financial principles taught in M1. The third and final product (M3) is a ticket to another conference that lasts 5 days, and it also buys you the M1 products. It costs $12,995.

Most of this information is left out when you join carbon copy pro. The only price point they mention is the $8,995, which is the M2 level. Furthermore, Carbon Copy Pro suggests that you have an extra $2,000 to $5,000 in addition to the start up fee. This is meant for advertisement costs. That brings the total start up cost to a minimum of $11,000. And that’s not all; there is a monthly recurring fee of $150. That makes Carbon Copy Pro the MOST expensive online opportunity available today. It is well over 4 to 5 times more expensive than the average internet business. With the average American household income being less than $40k a year, a business that is over $10k is simply out of reach for the majority. Clearly, the people who DO join are already financially set, and most likely look at these types of opportunities as a way to increase their riches, not make them. You got to wonder how long it will be before the market of high income earners will be saturated and Carbon Copy Pro has no one else to market to.

Exactly how useful is the financial information that Wealth Masters International provides? If an individual can afford to invest more than $10,000 towards an online business that has no guarantee, chances are that they already have their money being protected and managed by someone already; which makes Wealth Master’s products of little use. On the other hand, if someone barely comes up with the money, they most likely are more concerned with creating their wealth, not protecting it.

These are all things you must think about in your evaluation of the business. If the products have a place in the market and people ACTUALLY have a reason to join other than hoping for riches, then maybe Carbon Copy Pro has something going for them. But it’s a tough call to make, and one you have to make yourself. If their claims of making “$250,000 your first year” or “100 new millionaires by 2012″ weren’t so heavily marketed would you still have an interest?

If it’s simply the opportunity to make money that interests you, allow me to mention a different business that costs a fourth of what Carbon Copy Pro does, but can easily be just as profitable. It is called the Wealth Funnel System. Its creator, Derrick Harper, is an internet marketing pro and has been working online for 13 years. His resume boasts some big names like MTV, CMT, Pfizer, Weber Grills, Johnson and Johnson, and more. He has made millions online and he put together the Wealth Funnel System to teach and train individuals how to properly market online. Not only does it offer seven different streams of income, but it is one of the only businesses that offers a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. Visit www.wealthfunnelsuccess.com for more details.

It is up to you to decide which route you take. I hope this information was valuable, and more importantly I hope you came across it before forking over that $49.

Wishing you the best success, Joe Marquez
