Complaint Review: Tower Of Power Sales - Washington Washington

To start with how i was lured into the company, i should first explain the circumstances that made me want to believe in the promises. basically, i was kicked out of my home 6 months ago when i was 17, and have been homeless, in a group home, or in jail ever since. i had finally made it to las vegas, only to b scammed by the property managers taking the rental assistance money from homeless people turning to social services. after being wrongfully evicted, i was once again homeless in las vegas. i needed some place to go, so i responded to a so called "cool travel job" listed in the paper, that promised; paid training, lodging and transportation provided. when i called the number i spoke with a hiring coordinater that said the avg magazine went for 60 and i would make about half in comission. but she neglected to tell me that i made anywheres from 30-40% of the front, which is about half of the total cost before processing and handling. so in reality u make about 10-15 dollars per sale. of course that i found out after i had took the greyhound to michigan.

in michigan i was picked up from the greyhound, told to remember my first 5 and rip. also they then explained that i had a curfew for my first to weeks, and that if i smoked or drank i would not be able to during that time. later i realized that my curfew was to keep me from associated with any1 other than the crew. i found out that meetings were at 9 in the morning, could last up to an hour, and that from there we would have 5 drops or a 6th commando and stay out from 9 to 10 at night. at the door we were to try and sell this contest and the points for a trip, and 5000 dollars, and we were supposed to get inspired. thats what really made me realize it was a scam, esspecially since the points had nothing to do with the 5000, u get 5000 in 500 dollar increments every time u sell 10000 dollars of subscriptions in cash. the points have nothing to do with anything.

once i was out of my training i had found out that its common for agents to canvas a jones for weed, alcohol, or sex. and when i was able to knock doors myself i knew i was going to quit, so i tried to get just one cuz i fealt bad about scamming people, i didnt know if they would actually get their magazines or not. but, i was in the midwest so i wanted to not get fired at least until i made it to colorado, cuz i wasnt sure u would get a ticket. i made it to colorad in a van with 6 people, we had no airbags and it was a tornado lightning storm, our tire blew out and we were told by the tower or power boss, matt parker to push through and make it on a donut,so we drove 150 miles on it.

the best part is, the hotel and transportation isnt even free, they charge u 15 dollars a day for the hotel, 5 for gas and receipts. and with a 15 dollar a day draw u have to sell at least 3 a day to stay even. and thats working 12 hours a day 6 days a week, with a day to drive to another state and do laundry, clean the vans. apparently u can make money if u get 10 a day, which people very rarely do, and all the money u "make" goes to ur books. which u cant even take off of, they make u keep at least 400 on ur books, and they wont let u take off more than 150 at a time if they do let u at all. they also never tell u where ur going to be sent to until ur in the van driving for 8 hours, and most drivers dont even have valid licensces. half the reason i signed on was cuz they said they were going to spend a few weeks in chicago, when it was 2 hours into our "hop" that the car handler said we were going to iowa.

the final straw was everyone came off of spur for the first time (spur being groups of one van that split up from the 50 main crew) in quad cities, it was my first time seeing the whole crew, and everyone made a point of saying this is ur new family. also, the whole company goes to mexico for four days including christmas day once a year, which to me made it seem like an intentional attempt to separate a mag agent from his real family, friends and home.

the bottom line is anyone in tower of power is not only scammin u, they sometimes dont even realize it, and in reality whatever they get u for, just be glad ur not them. if one of them ever comes to ur door and claims to be in a National Career Award contest, show them this website.
