World Ventures is a travel company that offers "dream trips" to people looking to experience travel. They also provide an income opportunity to people looking to start a travel business. The company is controversial, and many have questioned whether it is a legit opportunity. We blow away the smoke and review what this business is all about.
World Ventures - At A Glance
As a travel company, world ventures provides vacations (called "dream trips") to clients. They book these trips online, and by doing so, claim to have "combined the power of the Internet with network marketing".
The company was started by Wayne Nugent and Mike Azcue, who have ties to another company called GTT. World Ventures launched December 10, 2005, and claims to generate sales of just under $150,000,000 in revenue, and it costs $400 to join the company.
World Ventures Dream Trips - A Closer Look
The first controversy starts with the connection of the owners to GTT. This company has come under significant criticism for it's marketing practices. The executive board has some interesting titles as well, such as "Chief Strategy Officer" and "Chief Visionary Officer". How unique.
The Bottom Line
The real issue with the company is the marketing that is advocated and taught. The old MLM model of recruiting "friends and family" is still alive and well there, and for all the lip-service, they do not encourage the use of the Internet (beyond email) to grow your business. They do have pretty graphics and fancy java-script on their website, but their marketing strategies are strongly rooted in the 1950's.
To sum up, this COULD be a good opportunity is a marketer that had skills stepped in and applied those skills. The average person looking to cash in on the travel industry will find some significant lacking in the actual marketing system that drives sales.
