EDITORIAL EXPLANATION: Ripoff Report has found the party making this post used the Ripoff Report site to make multiple false Reports against this company and to have repeatedly harassed this company. In addition, Ripoff Report was also abused and harassed by the posting party. Ripoff Report does not tolerate the use of its site to harass, torment, or abuse individuals and/or a business. This company has been with Ripoff Report for almost a decade with no actual substantive complaints. In accordance with Ripoff Report’s current Terms of Service and new policies, this harassing and abusive post has been redacted.
PERCEIVED HARASSMENT / CYBERSTALKING / CYBERBULLYING / REVENGE POST
EDITOR’S COMMENT: Ripoff Report strongly believes in the First Amendment, especially when consumers are truthfully warning other consumers about potential frauds, scams, rip-offs or the like by shady individuals or businesses. Ripoff Report is by consumers, for consumers…and we want to keep it that way! Unfortunately this Report was posted and, upon additional information, appears to have been primarily for the purpose of bullying or harassment. In many instances Ripoff Report will reach out to the author of the Report to obtain further information. In other instances, enough information is provided to Ripoff Report to warrant redactions without reaching out to the author. Ripoff Report is working to combat tactics that are perceived to be cyberharassment, cyberstalking, cyberbullying and/or what is generally considered a “revenge post” as we do not condone such behavior.
The Report was brought to our attention and, upon review of compiled information (which will be done on a case by case basis without any obligation as resources allow), and at Ripoff Report’s sole discretion, Ripoff Report made the decision to update this Report because it did not conform to our current policies and/or current Terms of Service. Under normal circumstances when applying this new Policy to other Reports, Ripoff Report would simply redact the identifying information from the subject Reports and leave the remainder of the Report content. In this instance, because this Company is an existing CAP Member Businesses, and given the unique way that Ripoff Report has serviced its customer with advertising and other benefits and services, ROR has agreed to redact from the this Report the original author posting content and replace that original author content with this Editorial Comment.
CONSUMERS: Be kind. Keep it honest. Keep it fair. Stick to the facts. Do your research. Keep the dirty laundry in the laundry hamper…not on Ripoff Report.
PLEASED TO SEE SUCH EFFORTS? YOU CAN HELP RIPOFF REPORT COMBAT THOSE WHO ABUSE THE SYSTEM: Ripoff Report, as resources allow, is working towards combatting Cyberharassment, Cyberstalking, Cyberbullying and/or other problems such as what is generically called “revenge posts” that can be riddled with nasty personal allegations that can be serious. Ripoff Report would love to be able to timely address each and every review request we receive, however, this takes resources. If you think this is a worth-while endeavor, we encourage you to make a donation so that we can expand the resources that we can devote to this project. You can make a non-tax deductible donation by clicking on the PayPal icon at the bottom of the page located at the following URL: http://www.ripoffreport.com/ConsumersSayThankYou/Donate.aspx. The more resources we have, the more resources we can devote to this project in general and other forward thinking and positive initiatives like it.
Thank you!

NBCS, Transition Companies, Ted Solomon, Strick Hullender, (((REDACTED))) are all involved in the same antics As you have no doubt already read in this referenced article, the US Department of Justice has been notified that business owners do not seem to get what they have bargained for when they contract for services with a company associated with Ted Solomon, Strick Hullender, and company. (((REDACTED))) NBCS and now Transition Companies have too much in common, namely, the same cast of characters have been involved in all of them. Hullender bought (((REDACTED))) (((REDACTED))) worked for (((REDACTED))) and was an executive at (((REDACTED))) . Ted Solomon has been involved in all of them. He trained most of the NBCS independent representatives and is listed on the company organizational chart for Transition Companies. These guys look smooth, dress smooth and talk smooth. Make sure if you are approached to do business with NBCS, (((REDACTED))) or the Transition Companies, that you look very, very, did I say very long and hard at their list of promises. Make sure that the time line of their existence makes sense. Carefully check the references for exactly their involvement in any transaction. Transition Companies seems to be the latest and greatest addition to list list of Dallas Companies who are experts in the sale of privately held small to medium companies. Their website and collateral materials indicate that they have been around for many years. The BBB in greater Dallas represents that Transition Companies has been a member since October of 08, WHEN THEY WERE FORMED. Further investigation has connected, Succel, Inc. and a Mergers and Acquisition company as combining to form The Transition Companies. The time line on this places (((REDACTED))) who is the listed principal of Succel, in a position of being Sales Manager of (((REDACTED))) , while at the same time actively running Succel. If they seem too smooth, if it sounds too good to be true, and they want you to write a check on the spot- be extra, extra did I say extra careful. Anonymous Shadow Hills, California

TRUTH ABOUT THE TRANSITION COMPANIES & GENE SARTIN
AUTHOR: Gene Sartin - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, March 05, 2009
Freedom of the press and free expression are truly one of the many foundations that make America a great country. Often, when something is published, the public takes the information as fact without any verification. Moreover, websites like this one, which may have some benefit to the public, do not verify or make any attempt to verify, the factual accuracy of what they publish.
It's truly disheartening to see these freedoms abused with incorrect information, published and posted, without any attempt to verify the truth by the publisher; written by an anonymous source and posted from Shadow, Hills, California.
We believe this report was probably written by a competitor or a former employee that was not up to The Transition Companies LLC (TTC or The Transition Companies) professional, ethical or performance standards.
TTC was forced to part ways with underperforming employee from the east coast. This former employee is attempting to extort an undeserved legal settlement from TTC. He has made many threats and, in fact, mentioned the exact threat of posting erroneous information on this very site. This former employee from the east coast has a son / daughter in Southern California where the anonymous posting claims to be made.
Let's set the record straight. The information on The Transition Companies LLC on our website www.transitioncompanies.com is true and accurate. Neither of TTC's preceding entities ever had any negative claims made in the media, public or published anywhere.
The Transition Companies LLC is not related in anyway to any of the entities or individuals mentioned in the Anonymous, Shadow Hills, California report. The Anonymous, Shadow Hills, California report is simply not factually accurate.
TTC's business model is built on integrity and delivering value to our clients. If we feel we cannot deliver value to a client, we will not accept that client.
In a market where our competitors are suffering badly, The Transition Companies is growing and thriving based on our unique business model that adds value for our clients.
If anyone has any doubts or would like more information, please accept my personal invitation to visit our corporate headquarters in Addison, Texas or call me personally at 972.450.3100.

Reference : Project 0725
Dear Mr. Sartin,
I have been requested to write a letter to basically review the reason for requesting your help and I am doing so gladly.
Upon meeting you in Houston, I listened intently as I am a newcomer being in business for myself. I had thought I was very successful until I listened to you and your associates. Soon I saw that I needed to do several things to get my company ready to sell knowing that the process might take some time. I knew that I would make a grave mistake if I did not get the help that I needed.
During our initial meeting, it became very clear that I was facing challenges. Your representative and I had a very candid conversation and both agreed that I needed to get deeper into the organization structure and daily operation of my business. The suggestions all made sense, were extremely enlightening and I felt that I was going to get the help I needed. When I say help, I really mean guidance as I was not getting it from those whom I was relying on at that time.
Upon your analyst arrival, the project as explained to me, was to get me moving in the correct direction while maximizing my current abilities and give me the instructions that I needed to move forward in a most positive manner. Issues we covered in detail, some more that others were :
Structuring the functional organization Very Helpful
Financial organization/reorganization Desperately needed
Responsibility and accountability Very Helpful
Employee handbook development A Work in Process
Goal setting and Planning Cleared the path to glory
Delegation of Authority A work in Process
Labor Burden determination Basic
Setting Policy and Written Procedures A Work in Process
Job Costing and Pricing Basic
Determining Overhead Rate Very Helpful
Breakeven Point Very Helpful
Employee Incentive Programs A Work in Process
Develop comprehensive company policies A Work in Process
Profit and Expense Controls Very Helpful
Company Safety Policy Will have ISO certification next month
Cash Flow/Cash Management Very Helpful
Company Drug & Alcohol Policy Already doing
Financial Forecasting and Analysis Extremely Helpful
Job Descriptions I like Randy's better than mine
Profit Planning and Engineering A work in Process
Employee Training & Development A work in Process
Purchasing Controls Very Helpful
All of the above became very clear to your analyst once he heard my history. This is when I studied the 80-20" rule and realized I was 99-1". After the first week I started to really take a look at what had happened and then started to understand what needed to happen. Every day it became clearer and clearer once I understood that I should not take my challenges out on myself. The summary pages and the documents given to me were easy to read and easy to understand. Any question that I had was answered directly or with an analogy which is the way I understand the best.
Having stated all of this, I believe that staying on the plan laid out to me, my company will operate much more efficiently as well as more profitable. I have the guidelines to refer to, and with time will be able to teach my subordinates as well. This will make my life much easier.
Gene, as we discussed on the phone, I was in shock with regard to the investment I was about to make; however after time spent with your analyst, I would recommend your services to anyone who gave me the opportunity. Further, I would recommend your company to whoever asks. Please feel free to use this letter of recommendation with any potential client you may have. I do not think it is the size of the business or the type of business, we all have our own goals and dreams. Most companies I am sure just need a little tweaking and proper planning to get to where they want to go quicker and with fewer problems.
Again, anything I can do to assist you in achieving your goals, please contact me.
Very truly yours.

TTC, For Companies In Transition, For The Transition Companies, And Gene Sartin, With Offices in Dallas Texas. And Offices in New Jersey.
For The Transition Companies, And Gene Sartin, I would recommend your company to whoever asks. Please feel free to use this letter of recommendation with any potential client you may have. The Transition Companies is in Dallas Texas, Assisting Companies in Transition. Also Offices in Mendham New Jersey.
To: The Transition Companies and Gene Sartin
From: Flow Products International Management, Inc.
Reference : Project 0725
Dear Mr. Sartin,
I have been requested to write a letter to basically review the reason for requesting your help and I am doing so gladly.
Upon meeting you in Houston, I listened intently as I am a newcomer being in business for myself. I had thought I was very successful until I listened to you and your associates. Soon I saw that I needed to do several things to get my company ready to sell knowing that the process might take some time. I knew that I would make a grave mistake if I did not get the help that I needed.
During our initial meeting, it became very clear that I was facing challenges. Your representative and I had a very candid conversation and both agreed that I needed to get deeper into the organization structure and daily operation of my business. The suggestions all made sense, were extremely enlightening and I felt that I was going to get the help I needed. When I say help, I really mean guidance as I was not getting it from those whom I was relying on at that time.
Upon your analyst arrival, the project as explained to me, was to get me moving in the correct direction while maximizing my current abilities and give me the instructions that I needed to move forward in a most positive manner. Issues we covered in detail, some more that others were :
Structuring the functional organization Very Helpful
Financial organization/reorganization Desperately needed
Responsibility and accountability Very Helpful
Employee handbook development A Work in Process
Goal setting and Planning Cleared the path to glory
Delegation of Authority A work in Process
Labor Burden determination Basic
Setting Policy and Written Procedures A Work in Process
Job Costing and Pricing Basic
Determining Overhead Rate Very Helpful
Breakeven Point Very Helpful
Employee Incentive Programs A Work in Process
Develop comprehensive company policies A Work in Process
Profit and Expense Controls Very Helpful
Company Safety Policy Will have ISO certification next month
Cash Flow/Cash Management Very Helpful
Company Drug & Alcohol Policy Already doing
Financial Forecasting and Analysis Extremely Helpful
Job Descriptions I like Randy's better than mine
Profit Planning and Engineering A work in Process
Employee Training & Development A work in Process
Purchasing Controls Very Helpful
All of the above became very clear to your analyst once he heard my history. This is when I studied the 80-20" rule and realized I was 99-1". After the first week I started to really take a look at what had happened and then started to understand what needed to happen. Every day it became clearer and clearer once I understood that I should not take my challenges out on myself. The summary pages and the documents given to me were easy to read and easy to understand. Any question that I had was answered directly or with an analogy which is the way I understand the best.
Having stated all of this, I believe that staying on the plan laid out to me, my company will operate much more efficiently as well as more profitable. I have the guidelines to refer to, and with time will be able to teach my subordinates as well. This will make my life much easier.
Gene, as we discussed on the phone, I was in shock with regard to the investment I was about to make; however after time spent with your analyst, I would recommend your services to anyone who gave me the opportunity. Further, I would recommend your company to whoever asks. Please feel free to use this letter of recommendation with any potential client you may have. I do not think it is the size of the business or the type of business, we all have our own goals and dreams. Most companies I am sure just need a little tweaking and proper planning to get to where they want to go quicker and with fewer problems.
Again, anything I can do to assist you in achieving your goals, please contact me.
Very truly yours.
