AKA Chic Enterprises rip-off! I sold 50 bottles in less than a week and still didn't get the "promotion" as promised

I fell for the ad too. I was there for a week and half and I realized it was a scam. They tell you the so called rules in the first 2 days of training and they broke alot of them on my 7th and 8th day of training. They tell you in the first 2 days of training that if you sell 50 bottles the first week that you will get a promotion and then your second week you'll start getting a pay check between $300 and $600 a week until training is over, then you will have your own office and make $35,000 a year and at the end of your first year you have the option to own it. I found out on my second Monday there it was a scam. I missed Saturday (promotion day) because I had a sick child. I sold 50 bottles of fragrances before the ending of my first week and I (along with others in my training group) did not get our promotions.

They also show you a video to intice you more but if you look closely at the woman in the video it looks alot like Louise with short hair and I was told the guy with her was Dirk. I never once even met Dirk, although I heard alot about him from Chris and Louis and how he owns 2 Hummers, houses, boats, etc. I guess when you have hundreds of people out on the streets selling your fragrances, you can own alot of things.

The Trainers that they send you out with, supposedly has their own offices but in training they tell you that as a manager, you can't have your assistant run your office for more than 1 week, but they were still out of their office for part of the second week I was there. Another thing that had me suspicious was that if the managers are making at the least $35,000 a year, then how come none of them have a car and the trainees are expected to drive them around and are not reimbursed for gas. Every time one of the members of my group left the job, Chris would always say "well, we got rid of more trash today", which I did'nt think that was fair at all.

They also tell you that you are allowed to sell business to business even if the business tells you there is no solicitation because they have a business to business liscense. That is not true, if a business has a no solicitation policy you are not allowed to be in there or on their premises and I know that because I had made a few calls to The Better Business Bureau. Please, everyone who has been scammed by Dirk, Louise, Chris and Johnny Wentworth report them so they can be shut down.
