Granton Marketing is now hiding behind the names Smart Circle, Innovage and others. I went into an Innovage office as people kept coming into my office looking for it and I wanted to know what they were. I went in and found out that these are the guys who carry around the knife sets, toys, etc. I told them about Granton Marketing and CV Marketing (under Christina Versosa) and they said they were NOT part of Granton. I also had some guys from Smart Circle come in try to sell me some Quizno's "merch". The guy had a "day of O" guy with him and as soon as I started asking questions he started getting nervous. I told him if he liked having to pay for his "retrains" salary in order to build his team. He went on to say he was getting overides from his team members but that he had only been in the business for 2 months. I told him I knew that wasn't true as he was just a team leader and not and owner. I asked him what his strokes were on the $24.00 cert and he said they get 30%. I asked him again what he made on each certificate and he said, quite nervously with his "day of O" listening intently that he got $13. I pointed out that he just told me he got 30% and that was only $8. He then tried to cover his mistake by saying he got overides. I laughed at him and told him to enter Granton Marketing in his search engine and read up about it. He said he was with Smart Circle which was a different company but mentioned all the usual suspects, Mike Teranoni, Paul Gudrieu (sp?) and all the others. I told him I knew it was the same company and told him exactly how they operate from the opportunity meetings and pep rallies to exactly what would happen at the end of the day. His "day of O" looked a bit irritated as he had obviously been told other things. As they left I heard him trying to make excuses for me knowing how they operate. I had a good laugh with my receptionist as I showed her this website.
Granton is trying to hide behind new names so I posted here to get them to show up in search engines.
