Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I am glad to hear about the complaints posted on this website. I was contacted for a second interview and will gracefully decline. I think that the insight that Mark from Austraila provided was intelligent, articulate and funny. In my first initial interview, it was eery to hear the simularities that other former employees mentioned. The speed of interviewer was lightening fast, as if he didn't want me to interrupt him. He also did not mention that the second interview would be an observation of door to door sales. Also in the advertisement placed in the local paper it posted a contact name of a woman that you were supposed to ask for, but upon entering the office there was no sign of her existence. Red Flags. If you work for this company or a subsidiary of it and love your job, than cudos to you. To each his or her own, although it seems that all the cydcor supporters regergitate the same sentiment. I have money and you don't. If equivicating success with money is all one wants out of life there are many things a person can do. Mark was making the point that a buisness based on the foundation of deceit and lies is morally bankrupt and robs people of thier soul. The world is not an easy place to live in and bills have to be paid. We at point do you sacrafice your dignity? I would rather be a mailman and make just enough to live than have to cheat and lie for a living even if it afforded me a good living. You can write rubbutals all you want online but one thing you can't escape is yourself. Be honest with yourself and by the way, Imma or Irma or whatever your name is. Your writing is truley the worst I have ever seen. Please take the money that you have earned and invest it in a writing class. Your points and insults are impossible to understand. Also has anyone ever had an car radio installed at Circuit City in the past 3 years and wondered what that micellaneous 3 dollar charge was ? I asked once and the installer told me that it was for a plug, but he never used it. Hmmm....Food for thought...

I appreciate the fact that you had a good experiance working at Peak Performance in Az, but the reason that I posted the message in the first place was this. Every job isn't for everyone, and of course you should keep an open mind to things. I'm not blind to this. The reason that I said is as follows: If one person doesn't like his or her job, there may be many facors involved. It would be a leap of logic to conclude or to make correlations about the stature of the company. Agreed? Ok, but how about this. What if a statistically large amount of people complained about the company and it's practices. Even many successful current and ex-employees? What would you say then? If I make one three point shot in a game it could be deemed as luck right? What if I made 14 three point shots in 5 consecutive games? Isn't worth investigating the factors of my success? ALl I'm saying is this. THere have been way too many complaints from this company and many like it to ignore. If you had a good experiance there good, great. But you cannot ignore the fact that nationwide, excuse me, world wide complaints continue to ciruclate about these companies and there buisness practices. There are some universal truths here. Sure some of the offices are run legitamately but is that the norm? Something is wrong. Be honest, you sound like someone who has been somewhat successful. Ask yourself this, when the mention the name DS Max, and others like it, what are peoples reactions? DO they make a face? Do they sniker? Why is that?

Dear Khang, It is unfortunate that you read about the bad experiences of other people before you had a chance to make up your mind about the company Peak Performance in Santa Clara, CA. It is very true that several companies that are affiliated with Granton Marketing/DS-Max/Cydcor have bad business practices and bad people working there, but for every bad office there are exceptions to the rule. I was with the company (DS-Max) for 4 and a half years, through out that time I worked as a distributer in about 10 different office in many divisions, I also have personally managed several offices in several states, and trained several manager.(I left to start a new business) With all of my time and experience within this company I can tell you one thing. Peak Performance is a great example of what is GOOD within DS-Max. I don't think I would have responded to your report if it hadn't made poor depictions of the people involved. Your comments express that your understanding of the people who work there are money grubbing and deceitfull, nothing could be farther from the truth. The people who work there are extreamly dedicated to there goals, they have integrity, and expect the people who come through the doors have some too. DS-Max has several problem offices and obviosly has several discruntled former employees, but DS-Max does provide people with an excellent proram to learn self discovery/growth and mental fortatude. If you or anyone else want a bias outlook of DS-Max and more importantly Peak Performance, My advise would be to actually work there for a couple of weeks,(I'm assuming your not working) most office offer a paid training program. (some better than others) That program would enable you to see the business for what it really is. Your perception becomes your reality!! You might see it for the scam you have been told it is our maybe your optimistic side would take over and you would realize the valuable learning experiance it could offer. I'm not trying to be the DS-Max defender, God knows DS-Max has many down side to it, but the ups side can far out way them if they are looked at in the right light. Your Friendly, DS-Max Advacate
