So what is Big Ticket to Wealth (BTTW) and is it a genuine

business opportunity? BTTW makes some big claims,

such as: "Discover An Amazing Internet Marketing Program

That Will Explode Your Ability To Make Money Online."

Does it live up to them?

Overview of BTTW

BTTW was founded in 2007 by Gerald Van Yerxa, from

Canada. It provides its members with a home-based

Internet Marketing business. There are two sides to

the business:

* teaching you all about Internet Marketing;
* by encouraging other people to join the company.

Whilst it is not an MLM company there is leverage, which

helps you to build your business faster.

BTTW's Training Material

The company claims to have what is probably the biggest

collection of Internet Marketing Training Articles and videos

available online. The Training Material is split into the

following categories:

* For Beginners;
* For Intermediates;
* For Advanced Marketers.
* Free and Low-Cost Marketing Strategies;
* Paid and Advanced Marketing Strategies.

and new material is being added every week.

So the Training is graduated and takes you through from

"Jump Start" to cover all aspects of Internet Marketing

including Finding Keywords, Banners, Article Marketing,

Autoresponders and much more. A lot of the training is

done by video and by webinars and there is some very

comprehensive documentation also. For example the "$10K

Per Month Handbook" comprises more than 450 pages.

The Compensation Plan

Gerald Van Yerxa, the CEO, seems to have a genuine and

sincere desire to help other people succeed. This is apparent

from BTTW's Compensation Plan, which is extremely

generous and possibly the richest in the world for a

legitimate business.

The Compensation Plan has:

* large up-front commissions;
* residual income;
* leveraged income.

What I don't like about BTTW:

BTTW has four Entry Levels. These are:

* Presidential package
* Executive package
* National package
* Direct Sale Hobby Pack package.

Anyone who can afford to join at Presidential Level and is

good at Marketing and recruiting can earn a lot of money.

But you don't earn the very high commission rates until

you reach Presidential level.

However, it is possible to come in at a lower level, say

Executive Level, where the Commission rate is still

generous, and apply for Presidential Level later. To succeed

at "Big Ticket To Wealth" you need to apply yourself, be

consistent and have a good work ethic. But then that's

the same for any good business and what's good about

this one is that your sponsor earns the same as you do

so he or she has a very good reason to help you succeed.
