I have known in my life a lot of people who can't go through normal daily motions without complaining about something and never see themselves accountable for their misfortunes. I have been very informed always as to my account status and place in the smc world , I have never even been approached with a dollar amt as high as some of the posts above , and lastly I had the startup kit mailed to me for $9.95 (shipping and handling only) and have paid $99.95 full membership fee and $114.00 in catalogs and gift cards.If you listen carefully and read thoroughly you will know that the free website included in the startup fees is only for gift card customers (the first time they make a purchase ) , after they register at your site they can buy products at their leisure gift card or not. If you chose to upgrade to a search engine friendly ecomerce website offered through smc you will be paying somewhere between 500 and 1200 for that website to be created , set up with paypal , and avail for customers to make purchases immediately , you are in control of the pricing , the deals / sales / promotions what products are featured etc.... (you should be comfortable on a computer if you intend on managing a website) THE KEY<<<< you must promote yourself , as with websites , if a tree falls in the middle of the forest it may make a sound but who will hear it ? answer: only those who happened to be around .. If you are gonna start a website get people to notice it or it will go unnoticed.. with that being said you can go through smc to promote your website with an expense (not the route i chose) , or you can research ways to promote on your own , or you can go through an independent source. "be resourceful" NO BUSINESS IS GUARANTEED TO SUCCEED out of every success there are 99 failures due to various causes. If you failed , accept it and move on. LASTLY if you want to contact smc and you are a member you have their contact info.. there is a fraud alert that they post warning of those posing to be affiliated and if someone is contacting you ... you should be leery of who it really is , agreeing to all these extra charges over and over again for these various services and upgrades before you have even tested the waters to see if you can sell the product seems ,,, well ,,, ignorant and naive... My condolences to all who have spent more than they should and have buyers remorse and all who have been mislead by a fraudulent "affiliate" of smc.... of all the people who complain I see a few who have a positive comment in every blog of this topic.

I'm very surprised that Tom Bosley has his name associated with this outfit. I have thought about joining in the past and so has my brother. After seeing all of these negative posts, I'm sure glad we didn't. I don't know if there is anyone out there who is legitimately interested in helping the not so fortunate get just a little bit ahead.
