Which of these two things is a Scam, A College or Carbon Copy Pro?

Got your attention now didn't I? I did some in depth comparisons of a college and Carbon Copy Pro and came to a conclusion, but before I get to my conclusion I would like to educate you on my findings!

Time Spent in Classes

In college you normally have 2 or 3 courses during a semester (and if you don't take any you aren't enrolled) which these courses are very in depth but extremely fast paced. They normally meet 1-2 days a week and last anywhere from 1-2 hours per session, resulting in 6-12 hours a week, so it's easy to miss things. If you take less than 12 hours a semester you are considered a part time student which will take you much longer to obtain your goal or end result. In doing the math you can see that in college you could spend much less time in the classroom than you did in high school, which could give you more freedom, sometimes good sometimes not so good.

You get out of it what you put into it

This is an age old philosophy that still holds so true today. If you go to college and spend 26,000.00+ for an education at a private college, it could cost you roughly 541.00 a month, many of college individuals take out school loans for these costs which manifest interest so it could cost you much more in the long run. If the college student goes to every class, studies when others do not, surround them with positive and highly educated people in that field there is a much stronger possibility for success. If the individual goes above and beyond the traditional content provided to them by seeking out additional content in their specific field this enhances the success possibility. On the other hand if they start missing classes, go out and party every night, don't reach out to obtain additional information and valuable content, they may not do as well as others, but you are still expected to pay for the service provided for you (the education). We all know that paying for college does not guarantee specific results; you are paying for the content provided for you and the individual providing the content.

The definition of a Scam

The Definition of a Scam is to cheat or defraud; or a confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially to make a quick profit. So I ask you, do you feel college is a scam? You pay for someone to educate you; you invest your time, energy and money to get this education. You make the conscious decision on what to do with this service; embrace it or not.

Compare this to the Carbon Copy Pro opportunity

Carbon Copy Pro is an educational platform; it is a platform that teaches you how to market any product or service online. You are provided weekly training that consists of webinars, conference calls and inspirational calls. You learn new skills, meet new people and have complete control over you educational experience just as you do in college. If you follow the training, ask the questions, and focus in on the content provided to you, this allows you to learn new skills and become more valuable as a marketer. If you set goals to learn something new every day, surround yourself with likeminded people, and embrace the content this makes for a very successful recipe. So just like college, Carbon Copy Pro you get out of it what you put into it.

Comparison Time

Here is a quick comparison for you to answer the question of which of these two things is a Scam, A College or Carbon Copy Pro?

College Carbon Copy Pro

Can it be educational yes yes

Is there staff support yes yes

Are there fees yes yes

Can you learn new skills yes yes

Can you build relationships yes yes

Can you learn in one night no no

Do people give up yes yes

Do people blame others

For their results yes yes

Are there benefits yes yes

Are there guaranteed results no no

Final Thoughts to ponder

If you are one of the few that believe that Carbon Copy Pro is a Scam you must also believe that a college is a Scam, they really are one in the same; an educational platform. For those that have tired Carbon Copy Pro and not succeeded I ask them how well they did in college, did they finish, did they pay for an education that they did not embrace? In my opinion neither a college nor Carbon Copy Pro are a scam since you are provided an education for you to learn a trade, you just have to make the decision to use the content, guidance and training or not to. They both provide a service for a fee; there are only two things in this world that moves money, a service or merchandise. Next time you hear anyone us the word scam about a company or person, remember this article and think of what the company or individual is providing that they are being compensated for.

Re: Profiles on Infamous Entrepreneurs? - Hi Kevin, I guess the point about running a "Scam" thread would be to attract those different opinions so they can be aired on an open forum and responded to fairly. Both sides of the argument could then be seen in one place (here!).

As GT pointed out, forums in general are great for learning and finding out new things that we never would have known otherwise. I've learned so much here in the past year, and I look forward to what this year will bring.

Securing Financing - This is a short article that a friend of mine put together. He's a business banker and it seems that he would be the right person to put the info together. He compiled it for inclusion in a book about opening a pizza shop. There could be some useful info here - In order for a bank to even consider financing for a business loan such as a pizza restaurant, the first step is to have good personal credit. If you have previous credit issues that have lowered your credit scores, make sure you are prepared to either hear, “No”, or “Please explain this (these) credit marks.” If you have not demonstrated the ability to manage your own personal finances then most likely you will not have the opportunity to manage the financing from a bank for a business. When you make the initial contact with a bank, ask to speak to a commercial loan officer. Other types of loan officers include consumer (think car loans) and mortgage (think home purchases and home equity loans). The commercial loan officer will be able to provide a list of things you will need to give him/her in order to consider the restaurant financing. Information required for a new business most likely will include the following: Personal financial statement (Assets – Liabilities = Net Worth) Personal tax returns (two years) Business Plan If leasing property, copy of the lease agreement If purchasing property, copy of the sales contract Personal History / Resume (may not be required but is very helpful) If an existing business, add the following to the list above: Business tax returns (two years) Copy of State Corporation Commission Certificate Copy of Federal Tax Identification Number or Employer Identification Number (EIN) Copy of Articles of Incorporation (if corporation) Copy of Operating Agreement (if partnership) One common mistake a new business owner often makes with regard to financing is that one loan will cover all the financing needs. This is typically not the case and can lead to cash flow problems that could result in default on the loan, which is not what the lender or borrower want. In most cases, either two or sometimes three separate loans would be appropriate. For instance, if one is purchasing real estate then a long-term mortgage loan would be appropriate to finance that purchase. However, the pizza restaurant may need to purchase equipment and have cash available monthly to meet payroll and purchase rolling inventory. An equipment loan could take the form of a five or seven year loan with a fixed monthly payment much like a car loan. A line of credit, on which one would pay interest monthly on the outstanding balance, may be prudent for short-term cash flow purposes. All three should be addressed in the business plan and discussed with the commercial loan officer. Chris
