 I joined because Mr. Powell offered a special program for Chambers plus a non-dues revenue system.  It was my full understanding he had been doing this and had a proven track record for his offering.

I was  told to help the chambers get the reviews by getting their permission to contact their members and ask them to give a review/feedback.

Later I found out the claims were full of false promises and misleading statements and claims. “By doing this, you should have between 30-40 four star and five star reviews on Google in the next 30 days.”  https://www.screencast.com/t/2PYZc2ALb

After further digging, this is what I found to be true.

Knights Dale Chamber this is a short video of what I discovered. A far cry from 30-40 member reviews:  http://www.screencast.com/users/IleanaKane/folders/Jing/media/0fba5785-3ab3-4ba3-937d-7841dc44dedf

At first glance the chamber shows 39 reviews Here is the truth: 9+ have 5 stars but no actual review -which does not help the chamber at all. 6+ reviews are 2-5 years ago – You will notice 7+ reviews are from the GiveAway Masters Group who do not belong to the Chamber.

Snowflake Arizona Chamber of Commerce - Shows 24 reviews - Several are from  GiveAway Masters Members and or Epi Digital. For example Marcus Kohl lives in North Carolina and is a member of a chamber there.The reviews are written from a period of 1-6 months - Nowhere close to 30 -40 in 30 days

Oconee Chamber shows as a participant on Mr. Powel’s Online Review Machine and  Epi website Both addresses Zero reviews https://www.screencast.com/t/Lcelh8fMTatX

 Pikesville Chamber of Commerce 2-4 months 13 reviews - 2-4 months - 13 reviews – Most of the members of GiveAway  Master (and or EPI) people wrote the reviews. One person who gave a review Mohamed Ali Aouled Amer lives in Europe. https://www.screencast.com/t/9efvot2Cbs

Mr. Powell even gave himself reviews which is against TOS and Google removed two of his Google My Business Pages (Online Review Machine and Epi Digital Shift)
