Mix It Up With Marc

I’m sorry for the delay in posting. Stay with me though, I will be back soon! And have I got stuff I’ll be uncovering for you! You won’t want to miss what’s coming next!

I have been writing about how to research for finding the very best online business. So far my research has always paid off. But sometimes no matter how careful I am I still get stung.

The other day I had a 6:00 p.m. telephone conference with a company that I just started up with. They were supposed to be calling for some one on one mentoring. I was fully expecting them to teach my wife and I better ways of getting my business up and running and I was looking forward to learning more information to start making some serious money.

When the guy called he started talking about the company. I won’t give their name yet unless they haven’t given me a refund - and if they don’t look out, I will write a scathing blog about them and pursue getting my money back directly. That truly is the beauty of a blog. It really gives you some power to fight back. I know that the last thing this company wants is scathing reviews going out to thousands of readers every month. Like I said I won’t give their name out but part of it is “The work at home_” and the last word rhymes with billionaire.

Well when the man started talking to us we were expecting some good teaching on how to market their products. Instead he said that what we needed to do was buy $15,000 worth of their products(!!!) and then we would have thirty days to sell them to make our money back and a good profit to boot.  He called this O.P.M. or other peoples money and said that banks do it all the time.

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. This guy wanted us to charge $15,000 of their product at our expense and at out risk on the hope that we would be able to sell enough of their product to be able to pay off the credit card in thirty days. Well let me tell you something fifteen thousand dollars buy a lot of e-books and the chance of out selling then all before thirty day was up was probably almost impossible.

Upon hearing this, my wife who is and accountant laughed and got up and left the room. What a load of B.S. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I asked the guy if he was serious and he said absolutely. I said do you think that we could sell that much product in less than thirty days and he said  yes. Well at this point I knew I was dealing with a scam artist. I fully intend on asking for a refund today. They said they have a 100% money back guarantee if you are not completely satisfied. And I can tell you that we are not at all satisfied. If they don’t give us our money back I will write a scathing blog about them to say just what I think about them.

Hmmmm

Maybe I should start a web sit reviewing online businesses. I wonder if there is any money in that?

Well anyway. I just wanted to write this blog about what happened just to let everyone out there know that you can never be too careful even when you do your home work and research a company you can still get burned. Oh well live and learn I’ll just have to be even more careful the next time.
