Rip-off Report Investigation:

Editors UPDATE: Positive Rating and Recognition has been given to GW Equity for its Commitment to Excellence in customer service.

Rip-off Reports investigation of GW Equity uncovers an ongoing commitment to total client satisfaction. This means that clients can expect the company will always work towards finding a mutually satisfactory resolution to any complaints or concerns. GW Equity listens carefully to client concerns and views them as an opportunity to learn from past experiences and become more efficient as a company.

In spite of the false Reports posted by ex-employees, GW Equity recognizes the need to provide for receptive and open communication with its clients. GW Equity strives to be proactive and avoid potential issues with its clients. To this end, GW Equity has streamlined its customer service department and added new processes in an attempt to identify and resolve issues that arise with its clients more quickly.

Because of our investigation and the sincere efforts put forth by GW Equity, LLC, Rip-off Report is is confident in giving GW Equity, LLC a positive rating. GW Equity is committed to making the strategic changes to its customer service department that are necessary to reach its goal of achieving total customer satisfaction through excellent service. GW Equity expects that this goal will be achieved by taking good care of its clients.

GW Equity understands that in order to grow as a company it must reflect on any past shortcomings and work to remedy those in the future. GW Equity has allocated necessary resources to work through these and is determined to emerge a stronger organization and create value for its clients.

In spite of all such situations, Rip-off Report is confident you have a company that is ready to serve those who need more assistance and is willing to make things right if they seem to have fallen apart.

In summary, after our investigation, which included discussions with GW Equity, Rip-off Report is convinced that the company has been and is committed to quality delivery of services resulting in total client satisfaction.

NOTE: In 2009 GW Equity rebranded their name to Generational Equity, LLC. Although rebranding is not uncommon in the financial industry, the company felt like for sake of clarity and ease-of-use, that Generational Equity is a more appropriate corporate moniker. With a new emphasis on exit strategies, as well as financial evaluations and merger and acquisitions advisory services this brand is more descriptive of their new strategies for low to middle market private companies.

We used to use initials, but initials didnt register with prospective clients, explained Tom, an Executive Vice President of Generational Equity. Then we decided to write everything out, but our name was too much for clients to get to our website. Generational Equity represents exactly the right balance for our clients. GW Equity is still in operation, however, Generational Equity better represents our goal of expediting the transfer of generational wealth and equity that is in every business for the highest and best use of each business owner.

Whatever name they use, this is truly a company we feel that can be trusted by any business.. Rip-off Report personally met with the owners and top executives of the company, and we know after a long Investigation on the company, we feel they received a bad rap for nothing.

===================== NOW TO THE ORIGINAL REPORT THAT WAS FILED

=====================

//

EDITORIAL EXPLANATIONRipoff Report has found the party making this post used the Ripoff Report site to make multiple false Reports against this company and to have repeatedly harassed this company.  In addition, Ripoff Report was also abused and harassed by the posting party. Ripoff Report does not tolerate the use of its site to harass, torment, or abuse individuals and/or a business.  This company has been with Ripoff Report for almost a decade with no actual substantive complaints.  In accordance with Ripoff Report’s current Terms of Service and new policies, this harassing and abusive post has been redacted. 

PERCEIVED HARASSMENT / CYBERSTALKING / CYBERBULLYING / REVENGE POST

EDITOR’S COMMENT:  Ripoff Report strongly believes in the First Amendment, especially when consumers are truthfully warning other consumers about potential frauds, scams, rip-offs or the like by shady individuals or businesses.  Ripoff Report is by consumers, for consumers…and we want to keep it that way!  Unfortunately this Report was posted and, upon additional information, appears to have been primarily for the purpose of bullying or harassment.  In many instances Ripoff Report will reach out to the author of the Report to obtain further information.  In other instances, enough information is provided to Ripoff Report to warrant redactions without reaching out to the author.  Ripoff Report is working to combat tactics that are perceived to be cyberharassment, cyberstalking, cyberbullying and/or what is generally considered a “revenge post” as we do not condone such behavior. 

The Report was brought to our attention and, upon review of compiled information (which will be done on a case by case basis without any obligation as resources allow), and at Ripoff Report’s sole discretion, Ripoff Report made the decision to update this Report because it did not conform to our current policies and/or current Terms of Service. Under normal circumstances when applying this new Policy to other Reports, Ripoff Report would simply redact the identifying information from the subject Reports and leave the remainder of the Report content.  In this instance, because this Company is an existing CAP Member Businesses, and given the unique way that Ripoff Report has serviced its customer with advertising and other benefits and services, ROR has agreed to redact from the this Report the original author posting content and replace that original author content with this Editorial Comment.

CONSUMERS:  Be kind.  Keep it honest.  Keep it fair.  Stick to the facts.  Do your research.  Keep the dirty laundry in the laundry hamper…not on Ripoff Report.

PLEASED TO SEE SUCH EFFORTS?  YOU CAN HELP RIPOFF REPORT COMBAT THOSE WHO ABUSE THE SYSTEM:  Ripoff Report, as resources allow, is working towards combatting Cyberharassment, Cyberstalking, Cyberbullying and/or other problems such as what is generically called “revenge posts” that can be riddled with nasty personal allegations that can be serious.   Ripoff Report would love to be able to timely address each and every review request we receive, however, this takes resources.  If you think this is a worth-while endeavor, we encourage you to make a donation so that we can expand the resources that we can devote to this project.  You can make a non-tax deductible donation by clicking on the PayPal icon at the bottom of the page located at the following URL:  http://www.ripoffreport.com/ConsumersSayThankYou/Donate.aspx.  The more resources we have, the more resources we can devote to this project in general and other forward thinking and positive initiatives like it.

Thank you!

Dave, I'm sorry you had a bad experience with this firm. On the other hand, my brother went to one of this firms seminars in Vienna, Virginia recently and told me that it was very informative and very professional. He said he was not pressured at all, and he learned some things that made him think about his business and personal financial picture in a whole new way. He did say that there is a fairly substantial fee that a company pays this firm to help sell their business, but he did not pay the fee and decided to consult with his attorney and estate planner instead as to whether or not he should sell his business right now. He did say one of the partnares at the firm wanted to set up a meeting after the seminar, but he thought it was just a sales pitch so he did not meet with the partner. By the way, my brother owns a 30 employee, 8 million yearly sales janitorial business that is very profitable. I'm not sure why you are so upset about the firm, other than it seems you weren't diligent enough in getting your questions answered about the seminar you went to. As a small business owner myself, I make darn sure that I ask all the questions I need to about any 'firm' that wants to take some of my time or gives me some fluffy sales pitch that they can do things for my business that I cannot already do. And if you are 'paying' yourself $5,000 per day, I would think that you are smart enough to know how to ask the right questions. By what you wrote and how you wrote it, I'm not convinced that you are. Sounds more like sour grapes to me. Either way, good luck to you.
