Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I received a phone call in late April 2008. The man was pushing an investment opportunity called Modern Marketing Systems. This is a company that builds micro websites that are supposed to generate revenue. The man told me the investment was for a package of micro sites. He told me I would make anywhere from $4500 and $7500 every month after about 6 months if I purchased 50 micro sites. That's $3.00 to $5.00 dollars per site. They also have a written guarantee that states Modern Marketing Systems will pay the difference between the purchaser's price and any shortfall in earnings up to a full maximum of 120% of the original staring purchase price not to include additional promotion. I purchased 50 sites for $11,242.50. The man made it clear that I was paying for 12 months of hosting up front. He said I would not be required to make a payment for 12 months. After the 12 months I would be required to make a monthly payment for the hosting of each website. The monthly payment would be $19.95 per site. I called the company several times to see if there was anything I could do to ensure that I was getting the most for my investment dollar. They said I should not attempt to improve the sites in order for them to satisfy the contract. They optimized my sites every month per my request and did not say anything about a monthly payment. There was also no bill, late charge, or attempt to collect any monthly payment. The 12 months past and I had earned $10.00 from the micro sites. I received a phone call from Jim Ford, the quality management supervisor. He informed me that the reason I was not making as much money as they said I would, was because I had failed to make the 29.95, per month, per site, as it was stated on the bottom of the invoice. This by the way would have come out to $1497.50 per month on top of my original investment. I told him I had called several times, and was in contact with Celeste Wills trying to see why I wasn't making as much as I was told. She never mentioned any payment. I think she would have noticed $1497.50. He told me I had a victim's mentality. He would like to help me but I need to sign the new contract stating I would be required to pay $29.95 per month for the whole package. But the invoice for the new contract states the monthly payment of $7.95 per month, per site and a maximum of $29.95. I did not sign the new contract. Modern Marketing Systems will not refund my money.
