A nice black guy came to my door and explained how he was selling books/magz to earn points for his schooling in Alabama. I thought it sounded ok because in school i had to do that to go to prom. I ordered 2 magazines for my daughter and my self. He talked to us like we knew him and we held a conversation for about 30 mins. Today i decided to cancell the order and come to find out you cant. tried the phone line and you cant do anything on it, website doesnt work. I then went to google and gooled the company and found that it was a big frod. I am out of that money that need to go to rent. THIS IS BULL (Inappropriate Content Removed)!!!!!!!!!!!

I do understand to an extent that the company bares certain responsibility for their employee's behaviors but when a person is acting negative they will tend to react in a reckless manner with no regards to anyone but themselves they try to blame everyone even society for their failures rather than checking themselves.
Many people have gone to be successful out of this industry bought homes started other businesses made enough money to go back to school etc.
Many are still in the industry or learned from the industry to where their experience helped them launched other careers in their home towns and then there are those who didn't make it or failed or didn't pan out
but over all the out door direct sales marketing industry is still a respectful successful lucrative industry
So hopefully this personal story presentation will help our readers better understand the life of a traveling sales person and or our industry and hopefully not judge us because of the stupidity of a few.
Many of us are hard working law abiding tax paying loving Godly people many with families as well who are just trying to progress succeed and excel in our lives because like I always say"
FAILURE IS MIND OVER MATTER-IF YOU DON'T MIND FAILING THEN IT WON'T MATTER" -

When the company finds out they give warnings but these problematic agents now begin to partake in inappropriate activities while still on the crew like drinking smoking weed or taking other drugs getting into fights with their peers so since they were walking a type rope they now get fired and sent home so many leave with no money because they were already in the red squandering their earnings with bad habits and choices or screwing up receiving complaints and cancellations etc so rather than blaming themselves for their downfalls setbacks or failures they blame the company or organization because in many cases they are ashamed of going back home to their families without nothing to show for .
Now the company took a loss by providing room & board and even though they were not producing they would still receive monetary draws and week end advances so when they finally leave the company took a loss but over all it is an investment and a write off and many reps turn out to be great sales people and a benefit to the industry and themselves.
But again when these failing agents are sent home or fired rather than taking responsibility for their screw ups they blame the company or organization by saying they didn't pay them or treated them unfair or worked them like slaves or anything to plead their case or pass the blame -

- We gotta remember that this type of industry is a world within a world and while living traveling and working together in a close family like community type environment people's true colors will soon begin to show their likes habits true personalities etc while thinking of that let's look at this matter a little further:Our sales reps are independent contractors they make their income by commission only with daily and weekly cash bonuses set up as an incentive to help people progress and do better and also an opportunity to win company cash awards. Now even though we teach daily seminars for free on how to handle rejections or keep a positive attitude some people still can't handle rejections they cave in to peer pressure others have or may develop bad habits and some may result into lying to the customer to make the sales or misrepresentation stealing etc.

- So YES many companies should take responsibility for the actions of their employee's and often times they may implement new rules strict business practices do background checks etc but if a person is a ticking time bomb and they for what ever reason in their personal private lives plan to become reckless or destructive there's really nothing anyone can really do and I'm saying all this because the outdoor direct sales marketing industry even though has been around for over 100 years has taken a beating and it's reputation tarnished by shady companies or individuals that have no regards for anyone but themselves but again PLEASE do not throw out the whole bushel over a few bad apples" I'm not trying to find excuses for them all I'm saying is that in many cases people have done well with the company while in many households nationwide families have enjoyed several popular periodicals and publications by which they have used to educate their children and for that reason kept buying from the company but as generation passes and these fast paced times changes people begin to try and reinvent the wheel and change the basics because they believe it is better or quicker to their advantage and when one begins to try and change the process by where the company or organization was founded on trouble follows
