ScamTelegraph reports that Wealth Masters International (WMI) will cease accepting orders from Carbon Copy Pro (CCP) systems effective December 10, marking the end of their long-standing partnership. WMI plans to replace CCP with its proprietary in-house marketing platform, "WMI Marketing."
For an extended period, Carbon Copy Pro had been closely associated with Wealth Masters International, serving as the primary marketing platform for WMI's business operations. Despite functioning as distinct entities, the two companies maintained what appeared to be a mutually beneficial relationship. However, this collaboration is set to conclude, as WMI announced its discontinuation of orders originating from Carbon Copy Pro systems.
In place of Carbon Copy Pro, Wealth Masters International is preparing to launch its own marketing solution, simply named "WMI Marketing." This new platform is intended to fully replicate and replace the functionalities previously provided by Carbon Copy Pro. Although WMI Marketing has not yet been formally released, WMI has provided a preliminary list of features that consultants can anticipate.
One announced feature is a new Contact Management System, described as the most detailed lead system to date, capable of identifying a lead's IP address and other detailed prospect information. While IP addresses are routinely captured when a lead interacts with a capture page or leaves a comment on a blog, the practical marketing utility of this information, beyond basic location verification, has been questioned. The nature of the "detailed information about your prospect" beyond common technical data like browser or operating system has not been specified.
Another feature listed is new Internet marketing sales funnels. Specific details regarding this functionality have not been disclosed, but the general concept involves prospects arriving at a capture page and then deciding whether to provide their contact information. This fundamental process is a standard component of online marketing.
WMI Marketing also promises video-based training from "conversion experts," aiming to teach strategies for closing prospects, geo-targeted marketing, and converting leads into customers. The effectiveness of such training can vary, with the quality of production and presentation significantly influencing its impact, especially in the context of multi-level marketing (MLM) materials.
Finally, the new system is set to offer free educational courses, allowing consultants to become "certified" in SEO, affiliate marketing, and Direct Sales, complete with "letters of endorsement and recommendations by industry experts." The exact meaning and industry recognition of "certification" in areas like SEO, which stands for search engine optimization and involves the process of optimizing web content, remain to be clarified.
