National Art Association Scam 2nd interview

Author: Anonymous

I had the same issue with the '2nd interview.' After getting to the office, we left, and drove roughly 30 miles before reaching the trainer's 'territory.' There, he set up shop in a business parking lot/ strip mall, while half way blocking the fire lane. Then, we made a mad dash inside all of the businesses, watching him solicit all of them to buy this cheap reproduction art out of the back of his vehicle. This process repeated about 15 times throughout the day..parking lot to parking lot... office building to office building. I worked with the 'top' sales person, so he managed to sell about 25 pieces through haggling with people about the definition of 'No soliciting.' It was not a fun experience to be around him, while calling people a 'Bi**h' if they chose not to buy. I was with him on his best sales day of the quarter, so I can only imagine what most days are like. First, he told me he makes about 100k a year, Yet he drove a beat up vehicle, and lied about what year the vehicle was to sound more impressive. 'I was an auto broker, I can smell BS.' So, If you manage to sell 4-5 paintings, you just paid for the gas it takes to do the job. Also, on a side note, they tell you that you progress through the company on a weekly basis. Becoming a trainer in about 6 weeks, then running a crew in about 12 weeks, then a owner after about a year. My 'trainer' says he's been working for them for 8 years and had the FL license plates to prove it. 8 years, and still a trainer? According to him, you advance beyond a trainer in just 12 weeks or so. 3 months compared to 8 years is a bit of a varying circumstance. His sales pitch also only consisted of lies, because after all, saying, 'I have a crap load of cheap reproduction art sitting in my vehicle and warehouse for sale,' Isn't very appealing. Don't know how these people don't get arrested. Even selling in lawyers offices in a non solicitation building... it seems like the lawyers would do something. He even bragged about selling to a cop through a high degree of BS. This may be a potential good MLM position for someone with a lack of conscience and the willingness to eat whatever BS is thrown at you by your coworkers. If that's not you, pass this business up.
