International Profit Associates I was almost sucked in by their speedy & sleazy sales techniques ripoff Buffalo Grove Illinois*UPDATE: Rip-off Report Investigation - International Profit Associates recognized by Rip-off Report as a safe business service - IPA pledges to resolve all complaints, 100% commitment to customer service and satisfaction, feel confident and secure when doing business with IPA
I want to warn small business owners who are solicited by International Profit Associates about their sales techniques.
First they call and before you know it (one day later) a "senior business analyst" is in your business. Mine talked down to me, until I put him in his place. But he was intelligent, my business has its challenges and I'm always keen to learn more. Isn't this was business analysts are supposed to provide?
He was convincing, pointed out what he said were problems with my taxes and accouning (which have since turned out not to be as he stated) and promised a 3 to 1 return on our investment which he estimated at $15,000 to $20,000. We did not do our due diligence or we would never have gotten this far! So we signed up to have their their team come in and start the analysis. Upon their arrival, which was a day earlier than scheduled and only the next business day after we had met with the "senior business analyst" (the rush you forward) I learn that the price is probably going to be double what the "senior business analyst" had quoted, and then it was very open ended.
There is no need to go any farther. Fortunately I called my financial advisor and he investigated the company and warned me. I only lost time, $300 and got a reality check on the dishonesty of people.
I had a bad feeling about these people from the start. International Profit Associates and International Tax Associates profit on business owners that feel vulnerable and/or are looking for easy ways to make their business better.
Always check out anyone you do business with.
