I ordered a "webinar" outlined business information package which mentioned a month long trial program called the "Inner Cirlce". The Inner Circle was to be a special program that included extra information and coaching. Upon receipt of the package I was quite disappointed at the poor quality of the copied material as it was hazy images and mostly redundant information that had been presented in the webinar.
Here, below is the issue of my report
Bonus #2 A Free 30 Day Trial Membership to the:
"Government Contractors Inner Circle"
As an Inner Circle Member you will receive a weekly email from me with important profit building tips on running your Government Contracting Business. You will also receive access to my live monthly Question and Answer teleconference call so you can get your questions answered and hear from other members from all across the country.
Your first 30 days is 100% on me. If you decide to stay in (and you will want to) just do nothing and you'll be renewed at our charter members rate of $47/mo. (a $50 dollar a month discount off our normal rate)
I received no notices of teleconference calls, nor did I receive any weekly emails of any real information that was not already known,i.e
To be eligable to bid on Government Contracting Projects you will be required to carry workers compensation insurance. If your new to the business and you have no employees you might run into some challenges obtaining an affordable policy.You can get your workers compensation policy for less than $1,000 by opting out (principals can opt out of coverage) both yourself and a partner or spouse can opt out and greatly reduce premiums.For further savings and if your business model allows the policy should be based on 1 part time employee with an annual salary of $5,000. This will result in a WC policy in the $850 range.Keep in mind that your workers compensation carrier will conduct and annual policy audit and if your payments to employees are more than $5,000 you will owe them additional money for your premium. We prefer to work with Sub Contractors who have their own workers compensation policy for this very reason.
To your success!

This "inner circle" information had been explained to me by my insurance agent when i set up my business.
Here is another "Inner Circle Secret":
One way to increase your profit on a project is to obtain better (lower) pricing from your sub contractors. Now don't get me wrong, I want them to make money, after all it must be a win win situation for us both. So here is how I do it: Whenever possible I like to offer multiple pieces of the same project to one sub contractor in exchange for a discount. For example, if a project included a roof, windows, doors and siding I could "package up" the windows, doors and siding and offer it to one of my subs who in exchange for a larger portion of the project would give me a discount. Many of the sub contractors that I work with would be happy to give me a 10% discount in exchange for a larger portion of the project. This results in steady work for the sub contractor and larger net profits for me.
To your success!

Please do not make me take legal action. This is the second time I have told you to cancel this subscription. I am beginning to think I have been scammed by you.
