This company sent a rep in who was a public figure with now a criminal background, and known in this area to be unethical. She had me sign what she said was a 'hold" for a deal, until I could hear back from the owner, who is in charge of making the final decision. She had me initial and sign to say she had written my email correctly, and that I had given her a check to hold the offer. I had a customer that I had to help, so she left, after leaving me a copy of what I had signed. When I was finished, I saw that it was a non-cancellable contract, with all the details filled in, that were not there when I signed...including 50% advertising that I had said I didn't think we could do. I had to wait on the owner to get back to me. She left the building and immediately mailed it in. I called her and asked 7 times if she had tricked me into signing a noncancelable contract, and she refused to answer me each time.
So, she scammed us, probably to make her quota. And cartvertising is not doing anything to fix the situation. I put a different name on the hold form which I use for privacy, but i turns out to be the legal binding contract, because I didn't know I was signing a legal contract. The rep was fully aware that I was not the decision maker. So now cartvertising is calling their legal department. I have witnesses to what occurred and audio cameral footage of the reps conversation, however, they are still pushing forward. And they waited to give me an answer until 2 days before we get billed a huge amount for what is probably not worth the money.
They could have easily solved this by ripping it up, especially since I called an hour after the rep left. Do not deal with this company.
We signed an agreement on 9/7/11. Sales rep told us how they were going to start working on graphics and marketing campaign for us the minute he submits the app to the corporate. 3 weeks later we were supposed to receive graphics for an approval, so they could start our campaign. Everything sounded so unbelievably great that we ended up paying $1,710 believing that these guys would really give us the exposure we so badly need.
Month later I called their office. It turns out we're not even in the system. So I left my contact information, but did not receive a call. For several weeks it's the same routine. I finally called and asked for our money back, but was told that (even though we're not in the system) they were going to start our campaign in December.
We never sent any business information, graphics so the idea of someone advertising my business without any information about the business or an approval is unacceptable. I've called about 5 more times asking for our money back, left contact info, but nothing's been done about it still. Not sure whether the product works or not, but I refuse to deal with this company ever again. It's middle of November and I'm still on the phone trying to put an end to all this.
Cartvertising via Rob Roseman took $4,650 on December 22, 2010 in exchange for 20% advertising in three grocery stores on their buggies to commence March 1, 2011.
When March 1, 2011 came around, only one store had advertising on it's buggies.
Numerous efforts to contact the agent I had dealt with, Rob Roseman, resulted in only one response, "Don't worry about it".
Rob goes by "Sunny Roseman" who has worked in broadcasting over a period of years.0
When headquarters was called, a person named "Yolanda" answered and said there was nothing on the contract indicating "when" the advertising was to begin!
"Yolanda" then referred me to a "Tonisha" who is supposedly in charge of everything. The typical run-around.
This group is a joke and a supreme rip off!
Rob Roseman lacks self respect for failing to answer my calls and telling me "not to worry about it". I'd like to see if he'd have the same reaction if it were his own money! Rob can be contacted at [email protected] or 303-909-1301.
This company hires you for straight commission, then tells you that you have to find all your own leads by visiting all the churches in a given neighborhood, to look for all the ads that companies put in the Sunday church bulletin. Then you have to pull all the ads that are in the mail, to obtain potentiai customers. They tell you that you have to make hundreds of calls and you have to do this when you are parked in the neighborhood you are working, just in case you actually get someone who doesn't hang up on you and maybe is interested in your product, so you can be there in five minutes so they don't change their mind. You ram an avertising program down their throats with a high pressure sales pitch, and tell them you are NOT coming back a second time.
You can't submit deals to the company until you get 5 deals in an area, so you end up driving back day after day to the same area to try to get that 1 last deal, but most small businesses are not interested in having their names on shopping carts. In my area they do not even have a program with the biggest grocery chain, so everyone says unless they can advertise there, they are not interested.
Even when you submit paperwork to them, they find a reason to not pay you, like"oh they had a bad check" or "the artwork is not any good" so you end up giving up and losing all the money they owe you. Forget these people, they suck!
I was hired by Cartvertsing for a work-from-home appointment setter position just a week ago. My first day of work was 9/18/12. If I had read the above reports just one day sooner, I would not have signed on with this company! The original job I applied for was supposed to be 6 hours a day. 29 hours per week. I'm supposed to be getting paid $8.00 per hour and receive $50.00 commission for every sale my salesman makes on the appointments I set for him. In reality, I am asked to spend countless hours online hunting down my own leads. And at least six+ hours per day on the phone making a MINIMUM of 25 calls per hour to schedule appointments for a salesman, who has very poor communication skills, tells me "it's just you and me baby" "you are in complete command of my schedule from 9-4 Monday through Friday" because I am the ONLY appointment setter he has! Then he Emails me asking me NOT to schedule any appointments. I am expected to put in countless hours each day searching for my own leads in an area that I am unfamiliar with, and spend countless more hours on the phone, yet I am supposedly only going to be paid for 29 hours per week.
The regional manger Ron Rasmussen who hired me was at first very friendly on the phone during my initial interview. Now he is extremely rude on the phone and in Email. I'm very concerned that I will not get paid for the time I have wasted and may even have money stolen from my bank account! I simply cannot represent a company that rips people off! I will put in my letter of resignation today.
