Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
All I see is report after report about how integrity sales is this big horrible scam were they beat us and dont pay us and rip people off. THAT IS NOT TRUE ! What you are reading is reports of a few victims that ran into a bad seed, or someone whom used to work for the company and is mad at theyre boss and wants to vent. Just like when a student comes home from school after getting a detention and immedietly claimes theyre a bad teacher and comes up with some excuse as to why things didnt go theyre way. Anyhow you get what im saying. Exaggeration is an amazing thing I know I work for this company. I LOVE MY JOB!!! I dont work for kay or torq. I work for another manager under Robert whom i choose not to say (to save theyre name from you shallow minded idoits) I have nothing but good things to say about my experience with Integrity.

I started in this company living out of a hotel in the ghetto of Detroit selling drugs to get by. When I joined the sales crew my life was turned around. They were there for me started drug testing me, cleaned me up got me some new nice clothes and put me to work. at first it was rough i wasnt used to the rules and structure of the program but after awhile i realized why it was there. I have been working for the company for almost 2 years now and in that short time I've been to 35 states, the company flew me to hawaii for a trip ( I had never been on a plane before ), and also gave me a diamond ring for being a loyal good sales agent. These things you hear of kids getting raped and beat is not what the program is about. I have never in my 2 years of working for this company seen anything even close to the horror storys ive read in some of these reports. I have never seen an agent get beat or forced to sleep outside thats crap. They pay me very well for the work i do. I now have nice things and clothes, my own laptop, a couple thousand dollars in my bank account expensive watches and jewerley and even a car back home in Michigan, and most importantly I am off drugs and alot healthier. All Thanks to this program , my boss is currently looking into me starting college courses to further my education at the same time I'm advanceing in this company. This may or may not be the careror path I choose for the rest of my life but it is deffantly a great starting step in the path I take. Before I just think of were I would be now If it wasnt for magazine crew In the gutter, in jail, on crack, still selling cocaine to eat. NO thats not the life for me and now that I've been exposed to success and now that im told constantly i'm better than that I strive for success, and I will be successfull. So before your so quick to judge by some kids story of a bad experience theyve had, don't be so shallow minded and realize there is alot of good that has come from magazine crew also you only seem to read about the bad side but do realize its not all that you think it is. Granted some kids do lie and say they're neighbors but that is not what I was trained to say from the company I am part of a National Cash Awards program which is a youth incentive program for kids like my self to collect points win a trip , travel the US and raise money for my college books and tuition, thats what I was trained to say. What kids say after that is all on an individual basis, everyone that has ordered from me has recieved theyre products some agents may keep cash orders or lie about what theyre recieveing but in no way does the company support that. If my manager cought someone switching orders or not turning in cash orders they would be fired or forced to pay a large fine. I'm sorry I just had to go off about this I am so sick of people thinking Integrity is full of a bunch of con artist scum bags when really theyre not. your reading a few peoples bad experiences. Why dont you open up and realize the good in this also. They have changed my whole life for the better.

I worked for Integrity sales. I started by calling a number in my local newspaper and the next day i was off to denver CO. I was told that i would have a $500 sign on bonus and be home in a few weeks What a lie that was. I arrived by bus to Denver from Indianapolis and waited to be picked up. They picked me up and were really nice...at first. i got to the hotel were Mark Torq was my manager and filled out some paperwork, NO TAX DOCUMENTATIONS, and was told to head to my room to take a shower and get ready to go eat. They never came to get me. I was tired and went to sleep that night only to be awoken by the smell of Marijuana and alcohol. I was sharing a room with to 18 year old boys and we had One guy that would check in on us kinda like a supervisor..I heard the knok on the door and it was him. he said nothing about the pot or acohol and even smoked some himself! i was in disbelief me being against any form of underage or illegal substance abuse. I asked one of my roommates Dan if he was going to get into trouble and he replied :no man they don't care, they even supply us sometimes." Thats when i had had enough. I wanted to go home and forget this ever happened but i had to go to work. I got dressed and got my Sales book and we headed off in a hot Van with about 8 of us in it. we made periodic stops to drop off a sales person at different various locations and i was the last and paired up with my other roomate who's name was also Dan. As we approached the first house i asked him what we were supposed to say and he said just LIE,make up a sob story or something like a school trip. I don't lie and i was more frustrated than ever because that was the initial part of the job as i was being told. The next morning we were supposed to leave for St. Louis and i wanted to go home. I was overwhelmed with homesickness and disbelief. I walked into Mark Torq's office and told him that the job wasnt for me and began to cry. HE just got angry and started yelling and cursing at me telling me things like "we have spent so much F*ucking money on bringing you out here " and "you only worked for one day." I just agreed and mark sent me to the lobby of the hotel we were at to be picked up by his secretary and be takien back to the bus station. I had no money,No food, and was quite scared. I called Mark when i got to the bus station to get the confirmation code for the bus ticket. he awnsered and told me to find my own effing way home. I then began to plead with him and beg him to send me home. after alot of no's and too bads i got angry and told him i would report him for his unstable work conditions,providingdrugs and acohol to minors, and tax fraud. He then got hesitant and told me to call back in 5 minutes. I waited and then called back He said that i was the biggest pain in the a*s and that he will be sueing me for breaking contract and all this other stuff but i got my ticket and had a 24 hour layover until i could even start to come home. All and all i am the victim and i know there are more out there than just me.. We need to take this company down and Mark torq and family need to go to prision for the rest of their lives.

Ashley I know this is you. LET IT BE KNOWN: THESE MAGAZINE KIDS WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES FOR A SALE! I do not blame the employees. Most are either mislead by the ads in the papers who recruit the poor things, or are on the run from the law. You, Ashley, are wanted in Michigan for theft, among other things. Ken Kanther has 4 children all by different women, and is disregarding them all so he can go door to door and lie to people to get sales. Ken Kanther is a drug addict. He smokes crack cocaine and will do whatever. He was arrested in Boston, MA for stealing over 1,000$ from somebody whose door he knocked on. David Samson has stolen narcotic painkillers from customers' houses while using their' bathroom. I know because he shared them with me. Most of these magazine agents have drug and legal issues. they do not care about you, they do NOT stick to the training, and the managers KNOW IT. they steal from people, they lie and cheat their' way into you giving them money. I worked with Integrity Sales under Jessi Malone (look her up, see what THAT says) and Ryan Atkins (another worth googling). These two are disgusting. They are manipulative and very demanding. They do not care what you do to get your sales, they are the ones making the money!!! Robert Spruiell (the owner of this so called "amazing program to help kids") drives a d**n BENTLEY. He also owns a huge house in Arizona, a place in Hawaii, and he made it all from these kids going out and doing these horrible things to get money to give to HIM!! DO NOT BUY FROM MAGAZINE AGENTS! it ruined it for the REAL neighborhood kids who have to do this and depend on you. these people just go get high and drunk everynight then wake up the next day and find somewhere else to go terrorize and rip off. its REDICULOUS. i want people to help me take this organization down. it is slavery and it is dishonest in many senses of the word. ASHLEY WHITVOE YOU WERE MY TRAINER AND WE TORE THE COUNTRY'S SOUTHSIDE A NEW A-HOLE TOGETHER. GET OUT OF THAT s**t, GO BE A MODEL OR A DANCER OR AN ARTIST OR SOMETHING. THIS WILL BRING YOU STRAIGHT TO HELL.
