Attention: work-at-home And all) salespeople!

Do not try to work for mark bott, owner of kidsafe international. I have dealt with this lying piece of *&^%$. Check out the other outscam, reviews, scam notices you can find about him.

He is the epitome of a low life. Read his laughable rebuttal to the former employee - doesn't even have the brains or class to use spellcheck. I have no doubt the report the person wrote is 100% true. It's a shame he/she wasted even a few weeks. And the fact that the scumbag now has the nerve to charge people to work reminds me of this...

Definition of chutzpah: someone who murders their parents and then throws themselves on the mercy of the court because they are an orphan!

Save yourself time and don't go anywhere near mark bott

Operation KidsSafe is a business located in Springfield Illinios. The owner is Mark Bott. I decided to submit a letter to rip off report because I worked for his company doing business to business calls and never got paid. I thought I was doing go work helping to protect children, but I was used by this "man" Here is how his model worked....

I worked as a telemarketer from home. I paid $15x3 to have access to his lead database called FreshSales (https://operationkidsafe.freshsales.io/signin) for three months. I assumed that I would definitly make my initial invesment back within a few weeeks. He will have you calling Credit Unions, Car Dealerships, Dental and Orthodontic offices across the country telemarketing and advetising his business. During my initial training call with him he asked me if I had 5 hrs per day to commit to this job. It all seemed legit when I decided to come on board. He said I would need to make 45-50 calls per day to ensure 3 or more sales per week. You don't call on the

weekends. Well I was sure to make the number of calls per day. I did that 5 days a week for 3 weeks and saw no results. I went into my second month of doing this and still nothing. So I amped up my work output and did 60 calls per day. Towards the end of my second month I called the office and spoke with someone call Mary Anne to ask if I had any sales. She said " No I don't see any email responces from the email you sent. You don't have any sales yet. You know you will send out these emails and the leads are so busy they might open it and not respond or it may go into the spam folder. " Little did I know she was feeding me lies.... I didn't know what to think so I went back to

my past called leads and noticed that some of the ones I called were no longer on my online list in Freshsales! I went to my hard copy list and compared them to what I saw online and I was missing 15 leads that I called! So I decided to call back all of my leads that I spoke to and emailed information. I got in contact with 8 out of the 15 missing leads and they told me they had already picked event dates and submitted contracts!! They said they spoke with someone at the office already and were in the process of preparing for thier upcomming KidSafe event!!! I was beyond livid! That's over $1000 I was not paid! I never saw a dime from all the hard work I put in to this job.

I called the office back to inquire again and was told that I did not have any sales. This company is a big scam because Mark Bott has you pay to work with him. Mark Bott will say you have acces to leads, a messaging system that keeps you connected to overyone in the office, and you will be able to see when a company responds to any emails you send out. Maryanne and MArk BotT will sound very cheery , plesant , and nice over the phone but the are only taking such a tone to make it easier to lie to you! They are dishonest people point blank!

The thing is Mark Bott will have you calling to countless business to advertise his product and have you send out emails using [email protected] but you don't have access to any responce emails. When you initially call to inquire about the job he will tell you that you have acess to email responces but he is flat out lying to you. He will tell you that you will have the ability to message other telemarketers and office personell but after you pay for the acces and do the training he will revoke such acces in the database. All you will be able to do is make calls, send emails, and update contact info that the office personell will use the thier advantage!! You never see any correspondance so you don't know WHAT they are telling these businesses!

I want everyone to know that if you are considering working for Mark Bott as a work from home telemarketer or doing business with him by hosting a KidsSafe event DO NOT DO IT! He is not a honest person. His buisness practices are very shady. He doesn't treat his telemarkerting contracters with any type of respect and uses them for free labor by promessing to pay you when you get a sale but his office personell will take you hot leads and sales and you will never know it because you don't have access to the emails. DON'T WORK FOR HIM HE WILL USE YOU AND NEVER PAY YOU!!!

THE FACT THAT MARK BOTT IS OPERATING BUSINESS UNDER THE GUISE OF HELPING CHILDREN IS PRETTY SICK TO ME!!

A PERSON LIKE MARK BOTT WHO DOES BUSINESS IN SUCH A LOW BROW FASHION SHOULD BE KEPT AWAY FROM CHILDREN!!

Total Scam

I too worked for Mark Bott and Operation Kidssafe, the other reviews are right. Empty promises, never paid. Wants everyone else to do the work so he can cash in. Its all about money to him and he'll say whatever he needs to in order to get it. Fraud.
