HEAT Marketing Group changed their company title many times before. One up was KSW Marketing, and who knows how many other titles it used. Perhaps for evasive tax purposes?
The company uses job-seeking out-of-work people to work for FREE. FREE LABOR ANYONE???? I have read many other reports exactly like my own experience. They said it all.
I "worked," or should I say I "labored" there for 3 days. I didn't get my money. I knew it was shady, but I thought I would give it a try for a week to see and give it a chance to, maybe, convince me they were not shady. I couldn't do another long hour day and not have anything to show for it.
They want you to "work" from 10 in the morning, to 8 at night, Monday through Saturday, even Sunday if you can. Go door-to door and solicit Home Improvement Power Windows and Siding free estimates in conjunction with SMART CIRCLE MARKETING.
You had to get a LEAD. First, they told me I would get 50 bucks per LEAD. Then, they told two other people that they would get 45 dollars per lead, and the other 40. Conflicting commissions. Then, they said it had to be an absolute DATE OF APPOINTMENT for the estimate. Then they said it had to be within 4 DAYS. If you ask me, a lead is a lead, no matter what-appointment or no appointment.
You have to drive your own car, use your own gas, use your own toll money, use your own cell phone to call the call center to put in for your appointment. Stand around for hours approaching everyone soliciting free estimates in a store and get shrugged at. Or, go door-to-door and solicit people in their own homes. You are lucky if you get three leads in one day, and an appointment within 4 days.
I had three leads in one day with an appointment, and I had two leads the other day, but no appointment within the 4 day mark--one week the customer wanted. That doesn't count???
I didn't get my money but I just didn't care. I do not like to work for unethical, evasive people and frankly, I do not want anything from those people who run this scam crap. I don't know how these people can stay in business and keep on doing what they are doing???
