I too have been a victim of this company. I invested 199 intially, and then paid 19.99 amonth for site maint fees. These things I did with out objections and did not step into this with big dreams. I knew and was told by Shawn H...(not sure if it is the same Shawn on here) that it would take time and it required work. He instructed me how to submit my site to search engines, and google ad words. I did this faithfully everyday. Results were dismal. The 3 sales my site had in just under a year were friends of mine that I directed to my site. They all had issues with getting the correct items and with the huge lag in delivery time. Contacting anyone in the company after that was a joke. I hade to email daily for a week and get nasty in order to receive any kind of answer. When I finally reached someone the response was to upgrade my site from the medium level to the largest package they offered. Needless to say I did not throw good money after bad. When I express a desire to close my site I was offered to have the site fee waived for 3 months and with the "coaching" I was going to receive I should see a signifigant increase in profits. That may have been the case had I received the coaching or even a call back from my sponsor Shawn. After the 3 free months and continued SEO and Google. I still had not made a sale. It took 2 additional months to reach anyone back to close my site permanately. The way I finnally reached someone was to go to the site I began at and act as if I was interested in starting up. I was then able to reach the right people to shut it down. That was 6 months ago. I though that I was done, but since then my site has mysteriously been brought back online twice and my card charged. Each time it took an angry email to get my money refunded and the site shut down again. I think if the support that was shown in the begining was there through out, things would have been different. I am just suprised that a company that wants to make money does not do everything in thier power to help develop the franchisee. After all, if we are profitable they are too. Isn't that why we all started this to begin with?
