Is Carbon Copy Pro a Scam?
Table of contents for Carbon Copy Pro
The first thing that gets your attention when looking at Carbon Copy Pro is a bold statement that this system provides a "realistic $250K first year income potential."
This may cause many people to think that this is yet another internet marketing scam.
Upon closer examination I discovered that this system was co-created by a successful entrepreneur named Jay Kubassek and Mike Dillard, the founder of Magnetic Sponsoring.
While I had not heard much about Jay, I was certainly very familiar with [tag]Mike Dillard[/tag] and consider him to be a reputable and knowledgeable marketer.
So I decided to take a closer look at Carbon Copy Pro.
Here is what I found:
1. Carbon Copy Pro is a marketing system that promotes a direct sales opportunity.
The potential to build a lucrative income is more realistic in network marketing with a direct sales approach as opposed to a "traditional" mlm compensation plan.
The reasons for this are:
- attrition rates are very high in the mlm and network marketing industries
- the cost to acquire a new distributor or rep keeps rising
It is difficult to build a decent residual income when the average new person in your organization only sticks around for approximately 3 months.
In a direct sales approach, this has much less impact on your bottom line since your commissions are paid "up front".
Carbon Copy Pro appears to be promoting the "right" type of business for today's market.

2. You are required to generate traffic.
First of all, the users of this system must generate traffic to the lead capture page that looks like this.
Generating traffic is one of the major challenges faced by many network marketers.
Users of Carbon Copy Pro are provided with quite an impressive variety of training on internet marketing strategies.
Everything from pay per click, ezine and solo ads, paid leads, postcards, and classified ads are given ample coverage.
Also, there is a members forum where results from various forms of marketing are discussed and shared.
The focus in the traffic generation training seems to be on tracking and metrics to ensure that members are receiving a return on their investment.
3. What does the Carbon Copy Pro system do?
It sorts, qualifies, and closes your prospects for you.
Let's examine how this works:
- through your marketing efforts you drive traffic to the lead capture page
- a visitor who is interested fills out the form and becomes a lead
- the lead is added to your autoresponder which sends them messages intended to get them to fill out an application
- when someone fills out an application and pays the $49 fee they are given access to a business overview page and sent a copy of "INSIDEOUT", a marketing DVD and workbook put together by Jay Kubassek and Mike Dillard
- they will also be called twice by Carbon Copy Pro marketing professionals who will answer questions and invite them to a live system overview call
- if they decide to join, you get paid through an automated payment processor you set up with Carbon Copy Pro
Note: members also receive a $30 commission for paid applications.
This is a funded proposal that serves to filter out the "tire kickers" and provide a cash flow to offset advertising costs.
4. Observations of the Carbon Copy Pro system.
It does appear to provide the following solutions for network marketers:
- high converting lead capture pages
- well-written autoresponder series
- leads are personally called for you by professionals
- access to a complete system that can take a visitor right through to a purchase
- allows marketers to totally focus on traffic generation
5. Conclusions: Is Carbon Copy Pro a Scam?
No, it is not a scam. It is a marketing system that provides solutions for network marketers.
It offers the potential to earn a substantial income.
The one key ingredient required for success is the ability to drive traffic to the sales page.
