This is the way this company works. It is run by a guy named Art Ramirez, former Soccer
player for Cal State Fullerton and Pro for some teams in third world
countries. Art brings a background of
Marketing to the table and attempts to manage the sales force. More often than not it seems the sales team
manages him. His tax relief back ground
was as
The money behind the
company comes from a guy named Michael Cardone who according to XBIZ.com was
the Vivid
Entertainment Group affiliate manager, at least in 2006. That means that he was involved in internet
porn before he financed a tax relief company.
The company largely
consists of a sales office manned by three to five consultants. Their job is to take inbound calls and close
deals for the company. The staff in the
sales office use names that are different from their actual ones. For purposes of example only, one guys name
on the phone might be Dave X and in reality his name may be John Y, Bob Y or
Steve Y. They only exist in the office
to gather clients and their method of payments.
Clients pay by Credit Card, Direct Deposit, Wire Transfer and the preferred
method, Check by Phone. The sales dept.
knows next to nothing about taxes.
The rest of the
company is contained in the back office.
Last I knew they had 1 attorney, two cpas, one enrolled agent, and 2
clerks. Thats it. Thats all I know.
