My wife and I attended their "seminar" together. Upon hearing the initial block of information, that was pretty useless. I decided I didn't want to do this business but my wife thought otherwise. She felt since they build the sites for you (what a lie!) that the business would run itself with little to minimal work on the franchisee's part. I tried correcting her thinking on this but Jim basically told her she was right and that everyone he has ever worked with on their sites had been successful.
Well I managed to get us to buy only 3 sites and guess what. Everything Jim said turned out to not be true. We were supposed to build the websites. This business has become a huge nightmare and an even worse one is trying to get our money back. I am so glad to see there is a ruling against them.

I have read a bunch about franchises but I thought this one woudl be different because I haven't seen anything about it. Well of course I was wrong these guys are just as bad if not worse than the others out there. Plus whenever you try to get a hold of someone who can help you with a refund they put you back to the people lower on the food chain, who bounce you around. I bet they get a lot of people to go away with this method.

wanted to start a small, no frills business, that needed little attention or start-up cost. Did some research and came across found http://www.storesonline.com I emailed them, the responded with a sales brochure and a call. Jack, the sales guy explained everything I could think to ask, I have very little knowledge about web site development. He assured “they” would handle everything. After sending the franchise money, $1500, and signing a contract for monthly dues, $300 for an on-line class, if you could call it that. 7 months later, I QUIT, you win. Our experience is this is a internet scam, we have gotten no help or anything that was promised. SCAM SCM SCAM, makes you wonder how they sleep at night.
