Nice PR. I hope they are for real. A national certification, non-company sponsored, would be nice. And of course, a background check is a good idea. rn I’m not sure, but I didn’t see educational requirements. Lot’s of luck, guys.

admin and dduck12,

This is a for profit company that claims to be a lead generator. The cost of a company membership is $175; additional employees can join for $40 per employee. “Professional agents” can join for $125. It does not say if they are lifetime or annual costs.

Per the website members come from a broad spectrum of businesses. The management team is not small. They claim to have a “rigorous review and verification process” but in comparison to what? They apparently started last year.

Many people believe that by affiliation or association, their credibility immediately rises. When you consider “The Oprah Effect” as documented by CNBC, there is some truth to that premise.

It will be interesting to hear about the rate of return on this $175 investment over the next few years.
