False statement! emwsf.com was created on 04/13/2011.
EMW in San Francisco did not exist in 2006.

On 06/16/2011, EMW changed the company name from EMC to EMW on their website.


Before 06/16/2011, emwsf.com's WHO WE ARE section had the company as EMC, Inc instead of EMW, Inc. Was the EMC a typographical error or was the company originally going to be called EMC, Inc but was changed to EMW, Inc? A Google search of EMW, Inc results in 729,000 listings while a search of EMC, Inc results in 20.5 million listings.


EMC, Inc. is the preferred Direct-marketing firm for Fortune 500 companies in several different industries.  Since 2006, EMW has been the top choice for companies with outsourcing needs.

Dzurenda and Associates is a Cydcor ICL (Independently owned Corporate Licensee). Cydcor affiliates advertise entry-level jobs and management training, but in reality they are recruiting for door-to-door commission sales people.

Dzurenda started advertising their "entry level marketing/sales jobs" on Craigslist in spring 2009. In spring 2010, Dzurenda stopped including identifying information (company name, website, corporate e-mail address, and telephone number) in the Craigslist job ads because many job seekers were getting wise to their deceptive job ads and all-day "second interviews".  On their previous website, Dzurenda states they were incorporated in 2006 and they had offices in New England, New York and New Jersey, but no search results were found for "Dzurenda and Associates" except for their office in San Francisco. The domain name dzurendainc.com was created on 04-may-2009.

Both "The East Bay" (formerly East Bay Concepts, eastbayconcepts.com), theeastbay.org, and "Dzurenda and Associates" have used the following paragraph in their Craiglist job ads, but be aware that Cydcor has probably supplied the same training and marketing material to all their ICLs (Independently owned Corporate Licensees).

"Currently we are hiring to train ENTRY LEVEL account reps for management. Our advancement policy is 100% promotion from within, so every candidate begins advancing from the same entry level sales and marketing position. "

Franklin, Inc formerly Franklin Insights Marketing, Inc (St Louis)

Franklin Insights Marketing Inc has changed their name to Franklin, Inc. They have also changed their telephone number, from (314) 241-8803 to (314)361-8630.  Franklin is located in the same office as another Cydcor affiliate, Aspen Concepts, Inc, www.aspenconceptsinc.com. If you interview with this company, ask them why did they change their company name and telephone number. Franklin, Inc is harder to search than Franklin Insights Marketing because Franklin is just a name.

Beware of deceptive job ads which offer entry-level training in management, marketing, and sales especially if the ads state "face-to-face" sales and no experience required.

Do you really want to do door-to-door sales for commission pay with no benefits?
