WOW!!! I went on an interview yesterday at this place and had mixed feelings about it...sure I was really excited at first, I need a job. There were a LOT of flags though!!! First I did a reverse phone lookup and the address didn't match....growing business had to expand...logical thought. Second, the office I went to in Norcross was barely marked with one small sign...`uuuh they dont deal with the public @ their office...logical enough.
Upon entering there is a young lady about 22 that was at the desk and the office was adorned with numerous awards and trophies and some really crappy decorating and paint. Music is bumping in the back and I meet Seth...the "owner". He tells me they are looking for someone to install or hang artwork in hotel lobbies, Dr.'s offices etc. for a decorator...but the real money is in sales. The office I met the "owner" in was also festooned with plaques and awards, but had only a desk...no computer or phone or anything.
He tells me that this artwork sells its self...with little effort I could easily become branch manager within a year making 100k++, and that would put more money in his pocket too..pyramid scam?? As soon as I leave I get a call from Seth wanting me to come back on Monday for a second interview and to ride with his top producer to learn how to become a successful salesman of fine artwork.
I get home and google the company and all I find is this Ripoff Report...no company website or any other mention anywhere. Needless to say, I won't be at my second interview on Monday. Thank you folks for sharing your stories and saving me a wasted day!! I HATE SCAMMERS...ALL SCAMMERS!!!

i worked in the atlanta office for one year. the branch owner craig was on food stamps.
this company only made one dude rich. the owner is a scammer from orlando named rob kibler. he told me i would make lots of money and get my own office. i later found out that he lied and cheated everyone. this guy drives fancy cars and lives the life while kids in their 20s go broke trying to sell his crap. dont believe the hype. they are all just trying to get you to sell art so they dont have to. i spoke to some of the old guys and i heard that they are all almost out of business. he told me rob kibler had more girlfriends than tiger woods and his wife found out and divorced his lying butt. get a job with a good company and never work for the national art association or landmark art and frame.
