ASTA (American Society of Travel Agents), the foremost expert on “card mills” has published a white paper entitled “Travel Industry Card Mills: What Consumers and Consumer Protection Agencies Should Know about Travel Industry Card Mills.” ASTA defines card mills as businesses that sell deceptive identification cards and packages that falsely identify the purchaser as a “travel agent” and offer these purchasers the chance to pass themselves off as sellers of travel services and thereby obtain discounts, upgrades, and courtesies.

WorldVentures is a marketing company.

WorldVentures is a marketing company. All products are provided by and supported by Rovia, WorldVentures’ exclusive travel partner. Neither company issues identification cards nor credentials of any kind. Moreover, WorldVentures does not promote that a Leisure Travel Consultant (LTC) will or could receive travel industry discounts or benefits of any nature. The company does not make any claims that prospects can “travel like a travel agent” or in any way qualify for rates that they have not specifically earned. Thus, WorldVentures should never be confused with a card mill. In fact, the name “Leisure Travel Consultant” was chosen to help further delineate WorldVentures’ Representatives from traditional travel agents and to avoid any misunderstanding by travel vendors or the public at large.

Airline Reporting Corporation/International Airlines Travel Agent Network

Rovia is an Airline Reporting Corporation/International Airlines Travel Agent Network (ARC/IATAN) travel agency that provides the technology and operational support for WorldVentures’ LTCs. Training is also provided to help LTCs market and sell travel in order to earn travel commissions. Commissions are based on the level of accreditation an LTC has achieved.

Rovia has a robust training program that allows a novice to move through different levels of achievement and accreditation to attain privileges and skill sets comparable to members of the traditional travel community. This includes completing Cruise Line Industry Association (CLIA) accreditation as well as travel training and testing developed by Education Systems, a travel industry-recognized educational development company, leading all the way through full Global Distribution System (GDS) proficiency. Further, the education program provided by Education Systems is the same content used in post-secondary travel schools, travel textbooks, and travel training software utilized by many travel industry associations.

WorldVentures:

Is WorldVentures a card mil?

The next question is a huge question! But I have to admit I am empressed by the co-founders of WorldVenturs Mike Azcue and Wayne Nugent for publicly coming forward on the WorldVentures Truth website. As you will read, yes they were part of another company called GT Trends formerly PRT, but they never had a ownership role in this company. I guess it’s just like anyone of us, sometimes people make a choice that haunts them for awhile. What can you say… It is what it is…

Have WorldVentures executives previously been involved in companies with less than stellar reputations?

WorldVentures’ co-founders, Mike Azcue and Wayne Nugent

WorldVentures’ co-founders, Mike Azcue and Wayne Nugent, were in fact involved in GT Trends (formerly PRT) as independent sales representatives, but were never part of the ownership or management of the company. After a short involvement, they disagreed with the business methods practiced by GTT and both men voluntarily resigned. From their experiences, Mike and Wayne made the decision to launch WorldVentures based on a very different set of principles and values.

Director of Training, Marc Accetta

WorldVentures’ Director of Training, Marc Accetta, was an independent representative with Equinox (again, not part of the ownership or management). His story is similar to that of Wayne and Mike. Marc voluntarily resigned from Equinox approximately a year and a half before its closure by the Federal Trade Commission. Marc is a world-class trainer and educator, who has achieved industry-wide respect, and has been an invaluable asset to WorldVentures.

WorldVentures has made substantial investments

WorldVentures has made substantial investments in compliance efforts. The company retains some of the best attorneys in the country in the specific areas of network marketing and travel to ensure business is conducted with the highest standards of integrity and compliance. WorldVentures has successfully operated since 2005, and operations are now global.

I guess in todays world would be “why isn’t WorldVentures active on social media?”. I mean really if World Ventures wasn’t on the social media sites, that would kind of scare me off a little.

Through WorldVentures Training at WorldVenturesLive.com, you will find that not only do I promote SEO, but social media like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube cannot be ignored.

In 2008, WorldVentures moved into brand new 38,000 sq. ft. corporate offices in the business hub of Plano, Texas (a suburb just north of Dallas). The physical address is 5360 Legacy Dr., Building 1, Suite 300, Plano, TX 75024 (Google Maps).

Does WorldVentures have a Corporate Office?…

It’s really funny  “Does WordVentures Have a Corporate Office?”, sounds funny but I guess it needs to be answered… Obviously the answer is “Yes!” World Ventures does have a corporate office. They actually invite there represenitive to stop by and take a tour from what I have heard. I am sure you would have to maybe call ahead and let them know your stopping by for a visit. I mean really just because they’re one of the worlds largest and most successful travel memberships in America doesn’t mean they wouldn’t like a little heads up…

Where’s Waldo… LOL

It really isn’t a cas of “Where’s Waldo” to find out where World Ventures is located. (LOL). Just simply go over to Google Maps and search for WorldVentures Plano, Tx and you will find them just the way I did…

WorldVentures publishes an Income Disclosure Statement

WorldVentures publishes an Income Disclosure Statement which shows that just under 30% of Representatives make any money–is it still a good opportunity?

WorldVentures offers…

WorldVentures offers the opportunity for people to plug into a program where they receive training on leveraging their time and efforts to generate an income stream. But, like any business, there are no guarantees–you get out of it what you put into it.

irresponsible to claims about World Ventures…

It would be irresponsible to claim that someone could be successful with WorldVentures simply by enrolling as a Representative. No one can make such a claim about any business opportunity. WorldVentures makes no such claim. The company endeavors, through the Income Disclosure Statement and compliance-related training, to train all Representatives to present a balanced, accurate portrayal of the WorldVentures opportunity. The data is provided on the WorldVentures’ Income Disclosure Statement to help people fully understand the opportunity being offered.

At the core of WorldVentures…

At the core of the company’s foundation (World Ventures) is the commitment to provide an honest and fair opportunity. WorldVentures acknowledges the program is not right for everyone, so anyone who is considering the opportunity should have the data needed to get an accurate picture of what the WorldVentures program offers.

WorldVentures: Is World Ventures still a good opportunity?

WorldVentures is not a pyramid scheme. WorldVentures is a legitimate network marketing (also known as direct selling) business focused on travel and lifestyle products. Pyramid schemes are illegal, do not deliver on any product or service being sold, and are a form of fraud. This article by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) offers a very comprehensive explanation.

WorldVentures passes the “pyramid test”…

WorldVentures passes the “pyramid test” primarily because the company does not pay commissions based on recruiting new Representatives. Rather, commissions are paid solely on the sale of retail products: the DreamTrips Memberships, Luxury DreamTrips Memberships, and the Leisure Travel Consultant package. These products are not sold at inflated prices and since they are not physically tangible items, Representatives do not carry any inventory.

World Ventures DreamTrips Membership…

In 2009, WorldVentures launched a new B2B division that markets the DreamTrips Membership as an employee benefit directly to companies, with no mention of the Leisure Travel Consultant opportunity. To date, thousands of customers have already enrolled as members through this employee benefit program.

What WorldVentures is not…

WorldVentures is not an opportunity where you make millions of dollars in income overnight. It’s a viable business similar to other direct selling companies such as Mary Kay, Pre-Paid Legal, Tupperware, Avon, and many other successful companies utilizing a home-based business distribution model. In fact, noted industrialists and corporations utilize the network marketing model as well. For example: Warren Buffet (Berkshire Hathaway) owns The Pampered Chef; Sir Richard Branson, of Virgin fame, also owned Virgin Vie, which distributes cosmetics and skincare products in Europe; and banking giant CitiGroup owns Primerica Insurance Company. Even clothing giant Jockey owns and operates Jockey Person-to-Person.

You see what happen was this early this year a good friend of mine was telling me all about World Ventures and what a great company they have become. You couldn’t stop him with all his excitement. Personally I was a little leery, no I was really leery. I mean really… Another MLM Opportunity? Another Network Marketing Opportunity? I didn’t want anything to do with it, I thought to myself. But then I started to see the light…

Chaz Key – World Ventures

World Ventures Training by WordVenturesLive.com

It’s all starts with the title… “World Ventures or WorldVentures? That is the Question! The Answer is…” Interesting enough your reading this because I put it here for your to find. You see I am kind of an expert at one thing or at least that’s what they say. I am really good at putting just about anything I want in the search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo and many others. This called Search Engine Optimization or as most like to call it SEO.

World Ventures or WorldVentures… It’s all about the SEO

You see there are thousands of people and I mean literally thousands of people search for answers. Some are searching “World Ventures” or “WorldVentures”. They’re looking for answers. They are searching for solutions. This is where Search Engine Optimization plays a vital role in your marketing. If you do this correctly, you might get some visitors to your website. If you do this incorrectly, well your website just became another business card. What I mean by business card is that the only way people will ever find your website is by you telling them how to find it. That is not good! What’s good is when people find their own answers without having to tell them about your website. They just find it and get that warm and fuzzy “Ah Ha feeling”. That “Ah Ha Warm and Fuzzy Feeling” brings a lot of trust, I mean a lot…

World Ventures or WorldVentures… (the “keyword/phrase”)

Notice how I took both words/phrases, each keyword/phrase has a different meaning to search engines. This is due to how website owners optimized their content. Some will optimize for “World Ventures” and others will optimize for “WorldVentures”.

Research, Research, Research…

Did I say it enough? Let me say it again “Research”. Do your keyword research and find out what people may be looking for. Like I said in the beginning thousands of people are searching for World Ventures and WorldVentures. When I first started doing my keyword research, I went straight to Google and searched “World Ventures”. Why? Because this was the natural way, at least for me. While at the same time I found that thousands of others were searching for “WorldVentures”.

I Like To Teach…

Look I really enjoy teaching and if you enjoy learning, you should really put your email in the “Join My Newsletter” box. I am really good at what I do and you can be too. Over the next several weeks I am going to be posting free content here on “World Ventures Live“. I created WorldVenturesLive.com as a resource for people like yourself to get the help you need.
