Consumer Complaint Websites

Many people believe everything they read online- provided that what they are reading is negative in nature. What makes people so negative? Why do people always want to believe the worst?

Many consumer complaints websites take advantage of this in order to make money. That's right, those websites exist to make money. They are NOT there to help consumers.

Most of these websites allow anyone to post a complaint there. They do not require proof of identity. They do not require proof that the person making the complaint is telling the truth. so anyone- a former employee, a disgruntled ex, even the complaints site itself can make up any complaint they want and post it. And all of the negative thinking people on the internet can gather there and agree that yes, this indeed sounds like a ripoff and the big bad business in fact scammed the person complaining.

All the while, the complaint website makes money off of the ads that it has on its site. Or, they may charge businesses who have had complaints posted about them a fee to either take the complaint away or say that the business is good. They don't investigate. They aren't fair. And they DON'T help consumers.

Scam Tip

Another way you can tell whether or not something is a scam is to look at how long the company has been around? How long have they been in business? Do they move around a lot? Do they change names?

Professional Marketing International has been in business since 1996, has always had the same name and has stayed in the same area, only moving when propelled by growth.

PMI Coaching is not a scam.
