Well, here is yet another PMG Un-successful story.

PMG came to me after I bought a information DVD. They came to me, proposing a huge success story by building an online website. Their performance in "selling" their package was top notch I must say....Too bad it all ended there.

Jason Conklin was the director that sold me the package for $7,660. It included:

1) Wholesale marketplace membership - Which was a complete joke. Their prices were higher extremely higher than I could buy the same merchandise elsewhere on the internet.

2) An Internet Business Manual - Which was a)accessible to anyone on the web b)A re-word manual of the "Vermotion web builder manual"

3) Financial Tool Kit - 1 word "worthless"

4) Success Team Membership - Whatever that is

5) Internet Business Coaching Checklist - To check off my work as I complete it

6) Business Solutions Corporate Software - To set up all the legal Business things. However, it did not correctly work for "my application" so I ended up printing all the forms from the Secretary of State's Website.

7) HammerTap Online Auction Software - Decent 3 out of 10. To analyize eBay auctions.

8) Secure Offer Site Promoter Tools - Probably the best thing they offered. It generated Key words and anaylized websites

9) Weekly Internet Coaching Support/Mentor - On a scale of 1 to 10, I rate it a 1. Basically, they were re-wording everything in the Free Online Manual. They had no idea of what I was doing on my website. I think my coach spent a whole minute looking at it before he called. The calls were to be 30 minutes each week. They were late and ended early.

10) Search Engine Optimization - Charged me a $1000 bucks for, and then optimized the wrong site! I have been hounding them to re-submit the correct site for SEO.

11) ECHO Merchant Account - That I never could get to work properly. Since then I have changed merchant accounts. I will say that the did pay for the switch.

12) Access to Vermotion Website Builder that was very clunky and did not include the $40 per month fees that were billed to me. I ended up canceling that and switching to somebody else.

I felt the vermotion system was clunky and I needed a degree in HTML programming to get it the way I wanted. I also felt it was very limited in the front side designs.


I spent a fortune...and I mean several thousand dollars, and I'm not pleased at all. They have positioned themselves in such a way that we cant really do anything to get our money back. I believe this all borderlines on fraud. I found out recently what this stuff really costs...such as search engine
optimization. I had coaching sessions and to say the least they didn't do much for me at all.

I don't know if any of us will ever see our money back, unless some big civil law suit is filed. But I want to get these people in the public eye, to let them know they are frauds. I find it really funny that they continue to do the bare minimum now, that they have no customer care and their customer support consists of a kid name Dallan age 17. I have also noticed they haven't called me once since they got my money, as to even make a follow up call.

I know I am one of at least several people who have literally been ripped off by this company. I have contacted the site owners of the websites that PMG (www.pmgtech.com) promotes through their program and all of them came back with complaints about PMG. So I know that I'm not the only one in this mess.

Going Broke,
