Now Grip is not the only marketing company. Business Needs For Less. Creates beautiful quality material and gets your mailers out on time. I found them at the Nashville show. The produce a better product for less. They can be reached at 813-758-0722.
Grip creates great material, however they take way to long to complete a job and they don't get your mailers out when promised. Now you have a choice. |

I use a guy who is awesome with design work. You give him the ideas, point him to something online or just tell him a concept and he works fast and for a very affordable price.

Just used grip for new sales presentation sheets and I am blown away with how nice they are.
I have never had a problem with them in all the years that I have done business with them. In fact I feel they have helped open my eyes to better way of presenting my prices and I know it looks more professional than what I was doing before. I worked with Drew and now I make more money per tan and give away less than I did before. Call and check around and see waht works best for your needs. |

Stephen,
Can't find business needs for less anywhere on the internet. Is there anywhere i can read up on them and their services and their portfolio's before i contact them for pricing to do a job? I just like to know about their services and work they do before i call them and inquire. Thanks Dean

Sunsally, didn't you post on another website that he's your brother in law or nephew or something?
If so, you really should disclose that on every plug you make. Tsk tsk.

Tony G -
As a general rule, I don't post here, and only made this one to answer a direct question from Din. If you considered this a "plug", and found that somehow unseemly for this forum, then please ignore my post with my heartfelt apologies and mea culpa for incurring the wrath of your "tsk, tsk". |

I don't think anyone can be too busy....to solve the problem would be to hire more consultants in the company. That might just show that the company is not functioning properly, i don't think anyone had any issues with his work just how he goes about it.
If Gary was to solve the delay issues, which wouldn't be too hard either deny people what they want for the time they want it, or hire more people to complete the tasks.....then he would have a very fine gig going.

I had a HUGE problem with Grip Marketing. I even contacted the BBB and Grip Marketing responded. I would like for everyone to know their policy and the way they choose to do business! I waited over TWO months for a proof that was terrible. The second one was just as bad if not worse!
The following are two direct quotes from a letter Gary, the president of Grip Marketing, wrote to the Atlanta BBB on 11/14/2006. I wanted to upload the letter, but it is to large of a file. "We require payment in advance for any Work. Grip's Terms and Conditions include "All Sales Final. No refunds. No cancellations. No partial refunds for work not completed by clients. Grip takes no responsibility, assumes no liability, nor incurs any penalty of any kind for any failure to meet any requestes delivery dates or for any delays. The customer assumes this responsibility at its own risk." "Also, we cannot guatantee or warranty satisfaction. Obviously, Mrs. Poole received her Work. Her mischaracterization of the Work as, 'joke in an email' and 'cookie cutter gift card' is her opinion, and she is entitled to it, is proof positive she received the Work." |
