This company is a scam! The office is located on 24th St. And Thomas however they tell callers that they are calling from Las Vegas, NV. They use a Vonage phone system with 702 area codes to appear to callers that they are calling from Vegas. They claim to provide business owners the opportunity to receive grant monies that are being awarded by public and private foundations.
Here's the truth, they make outbound calls to unsuspecting business owners and claim to be able to secure a minimum of 100K in grant money for them. If they can't secure the 100K in grant money for the business owner within a 12 month period they will give them another year of their service for free and forego the balance of the retainer while they continue to work towards the 100K.
The entire cost of this service is $7500 and is disguiesed as a retainer fee. They tell the business owners they will take half of the retainer fee ($3750) upfront and the balance of the retainer ($3750) once they have secure them the company minimum of 100K. Where GBF really makes its money is from the so called "retainer" they secure from hopeful business owners.
They will even lower the upfront cost of the retainer to give off the impression that it's really not the money that they are concerned with. The truth is, this is just another ploy to extract whatever they can get out of the business owner. Beware of Robert Ponce, Christopher Cole and Marco Esparaza. It's only a matter of time before the Fed's kick in the door.
