Global Advertising Inc Addison Illinois Creepy Scam Addison Illinois

the description of the interview process and the inner workings are all true. I have read every report on this company (Hybrid, Midwest Marketing, GQ Imports, Global Advertising, etc.) and they all are very similar to what i experienced. It was this website and my suspicions that led me to confront these scam artists. I am an ex-employee who has documents and information on their home depot operation and a real hatred for this company. I left the company earlier this year and checked back recently to see if anymore people were taken in by this company. I believe we can move forward and take legal action against this company with the proper motivation. I have notified the Department of Labor, The BBB, and the Attourney General Lisa Madigan. I would like to get some media attention on this company, also. Please, if you are interested in doing something about this, write me a response so we can get in contact. Lets all combine our efforts so no one else has to go through this ever again. I want nothing more then to see Mike Kriss, Manny F., and Ed out of a job, behind bars, or in a dark alley. JUICE!

So i joined the buisness when I was about 5 months pregnant...worse mistake of my life. Like Clint, I was also one of the top people in the business.

They kept putting me in the feild til 2 days before I gave birth. You try standing on your feet, in the hot summer for 8 hours a day..oh yeah not just that, but I worked there in the winter so I froze my body off...DUDE IM PREGNANT YOU DONT DO THAT. I wound up in huge debt and I had to sell my car because they don't remburse you for gas.

Oh yeah, and those leaders meetings?? They MADE me bring my newborn daughter there because I went back to the company . My 8 week old daughter had to be in a room where it was loud and crazy. Poor thing. I just got so sick of it...working 14 hour days and never seeing my baby...NOT happening. Im ssooo glad I got out of there!

Everyone thats been there for 2 months knows who I am (so that tells me you dont know what youre talking about) or you just dont pay attention. Listen Terrance when I have more hundreds of dollars in sales for that company than you have munutes in the field. I speak from facts, you are the young ambitious NEW GUY and are trying to protect something you know nothing about. I know what goes on in that company, I have been on the Dallas trips, The Owners weekend trips all the glamorous crap that they try to do to take your mind off of the fact that you do work that you dont get paid for.

Terrance you are a very confused little man but you will realize that I am telling you the facts of whats going on because I have seen the "behind the scenes" ethics that they don not have. Continue to work there because you are an employee and in a year when you are in debt, have no money, and cant pay your rent, look back on this and understand that when you try to explain the facts of what goes on there you too will be trying to explain it to another person who has no idea what goes on and the will be just as naive and frankly dumb as you are.

Thanks
Clint

But if we did, we would call you out for telling bold-faced lies. We come from a door to door background, but other companies have sought us out because we are quite effective. Now, if you truly were an asst manager, then you should've known several examples of people who have come up through this company and opened up their own offices. 2 new offices have happened within the last 6 mo or so. So we are such a scam that we are adding new offices and expanding even while some huge companies are closing their doors? Lehman brothers was a shocker, wamu was, thankfully, saved by a larger bank or else they would've closed. In the midst of our bad economy WE PROVIDE OPPORTUNITY. It's funny that all of our detractors on here post anonymously, what does that say about the validity of their comments? Or at least about the quality of their character. Seems unbecoming of a business owner, doesn't it?

Well you sir are just as brainwashed as the other morons at this company. 70% of the people dont make it because they get payed nothing, have to use their own car, are refused days off, pay for all of their own gas to the "field" and are treated like they are not on the same level as the "managers". I too was with that company as an Assistant Manager and when I found out what that company is really about from the business side of things (which you should have found out if you really were an Asst.) you would know just how crooked they really are. They prey on young inexperienced people trying to get into the "marketing field" while they degrade them and force them to work through sickness and family emergencies, If you like going door to door for 13 hours a day using your own car and gas money (somedays making no money) than this is for you, but if you really want an opportunity than this Cult is not for you trust me stay as far away from this place as you can I was there for a year and It is by far the most crooked and fake "companies" I have ever been a part of. Anyone that has a question about this can give me a call and I will explain whatever you wanna know. If you have an interview do go if youre already there leave and if you have bought into the "Youre not wating on us, were waiting on you to become a manger B.S. SNAP OUT OF IT and leave. This company is under federal investigation for unethical business practice and is going down. Dont go down with it

I can totally see where some people find the company misleading. I, as a former empolee had worked under the D.A.R.E. America side of the buisness. If any of you guys had went through the 2nd round interview, you'd understand its a manager-training program. Once you hit manager, you're able to run your own buisness. Mike Kriss, his company is Global Advertising. GQ Imports was once run by someone at the office, but they are no longer there, so the buisness went away. Ellen Winter runs Midwest Marketing. She was once under Mike Kriss, compleated the program and wanted to run an event-based business instead of going Buisness to Buisness like Mike Kriss' company.

It's a direct marketing company that basically pushes out Fourtune 500 Companies products out a lot faster then a Walmart or Target. Managers make a 6 figure income, believe me. It's an annoying process to get through, I know, but managers make a whole lot of money. I had made it through it Assisant Manager. I had to leave the company because my family had to move away. I had called Ellen Winter and found out theres another branch out by me and Im going to start up again. Sure, i'll start from ground zero all over again, but it's a fun company where you learn the marketing system and apply it. It's no scam. 70% of people don't make it through the feild, so thats why so many people complain.
