Hello and welcome to the American Business Opportunities blog site. Here we will be reporting on all kinds of business opportunities and showing you the good, the bad and the ugly. Not everything you see or read is a bed of roses. What we are going to attempt on this site that will prove to set us apart from all the other sites, is give you a more rounded view of various business opportunities that you normally do not get anywhere else. We will do everything we can to cut through the fluff that you normally find everywhere else.
A great example. Anyone remember SMC? Specialty Merchandise Corporation? Sounded good when they were plugging themselves on TV. Well their own sales force who opted in through those commercials have filed numerous complaints about the parent company. We personally saw a number of people selling SMC merchandise at local flea markets and asked them about their own experiences with the company. None had anything memorable to say and none ever stayed around long as they could not sell the majority of their goods.
The merchandise was fine, but it was all stuff you saw on TV and you had an idea in the back of your mind what that flea market vendor paid for the item and so you had an idea of what you were willing to pay for the goods and it usually did not match what the vendor was willing to accept for the goods. What that told us at that time is that SMC was shooting themselves and everyone else in the foot with the way they were campaigning.
CLICK HERE for a business review of SMC. This review is not at all pretty. There are a large number of bad reviews on line as well as BBB listing issues. We have also learned that SMC has changed their name to Smart Living Company. The issues were to overwhelming for them to maintain their old name. CLICK HERE for the article about the company name change. But have their business practices changed? We just reviewed numerous complaints about the company so it looks like it has just made itself over to get rid of the issues it had created for itself under SMC.
This is the Smart Living Company intro video on You Tube. CLICK HERE for a complaint on the Smart Living Company on Ripoff Report's website. CLICK HERE for the really ugly. Numerous complaints filed against Smart Living Company.
Now is this what will be typical of our coverage? That is both a yes and a no. We will be looking for the best business opportunities out there, however, when we run across issues like this, we want you to be aware. We will look at as many angles as we can about every company we cover. Once again, welcome.
