Magic Kids And Company where's the honesty where's the Profits?? Canoga Park California
I ordered the Magic Kids business all excited to make a lot of money refering people to their web sight. I put alot of energy into this knowing my money worrys woud soon be over. This caused me to put less attention on my current business. I read pretty much all the info got business cards made. Mind you this was the last little bit of money I had. Luckly I wasn't in it long before finding out about others downfall with the business. I planned to spend more $ upgrading to a higher percent and even asked my father for a loan but he wouldn't. If I would of had money I would of deffinately put a lot more into it. They offer you sales leads, higher commissions, door flyers, etc. etc.which could of run several hundred or a few thousand.dollars. Most which would be refunded after you sales reached a certain amount. (Would they ever reach that amount??)
I was gung h*o and handed out 90 cards the first day, the next 3 days or so I gave out about 50 business cards a day. Several people seemed very interested and some even blessed me for the great deals I offered. On the fourth day I posted 2 on line classifieds and ran into some negative info on the company Magic Kids. I read it but know there's always going to be someone that says something negative about everything. I decided to really search on the internet to find anything positive anyone making good money on this business. I found nothing. One lady even said they have an F with the Better Business Bureau with 70 some unresolved issues. I also remembered there was no personal success storys on there advertisements like pretty much all other businesses. It was a week or so ago I gave out the cards and posted the adds. I called yesterday and asked and I have 0 sales. Ya right> Anyone notice a trend here. Luckly I can still return my package so that's what I'm doing.

Falsely Accusing Magic Kids with out giving it a Earnest Try!!!
#2UPDATE Employee
Tue, January 20, 2009
We at Magic Kids are aware that people do try to make something of our program, working from home. There for we provide a staff ready and willing to do their best to help our customers and dealers. After reading this complaint I checked to see when Kim had received her kit to start working the program. As per UPS her package was delivered on July 29th, 2008, and she issued her complaint on Rip Off report on August 14th, 2008. When someone really wants to give a business an earnest try, they know that to see any response(s), it should take more then 2 weeks. On average, it takes a person about 2 days to know how they want to work the program and producing business cards takes a few days as well.
Overall Kim passed out 140 cards, that she produced, saw some negative information about our company which like she said, it does not take much to issue a negative claim, and panicked. She was obviously worried and returned the kit, based on other people(s) opinion(s). To find successful dealers isn't so simple because the people that are making money, aren't sitting on the computer advertising this program which makes sense. Had dealer(s) advertised this program. it would lead to more potential dealers, which than result in competition for them. So don't expect to find dealers advertising this program. As for Kim falsely claiming that we have "70 unresolved issues" at the BBB, try taking another look. Over the past 36 months (3 years) we 7 unanswered complaints. Unfortunately anyone can issue a complaint whether they are correct or not, valid or not, it does not matter, and there for some complaints were issued for no good reason. As for the other issues, All have been answered, resolved, and closed. I decided to do a little research as to what happened with her 140 cards. She did have 1 person that signed up under her id code, but did not order. She did not give Magic Kids an fair chance, and decided to return the kit which is fine and should be her decision. Its not fair or right to be so quick to judge and falsely claim that we are doing something wrong, when she obviously did not test the program, and she did not research our company enough.
