Rocky Mountain Marketing Inc is an independent Cydcor affiliate located in Westminster outside of Denver. There was another Cydcor affiliate using the same company name, Rocky Mountain Marketing Inc, located at 6160 S Syracuse Way #230 Englewood, CO 80111, (303) 220-3430, rockymountainmarketinginc.net.
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. Beware of the all-day second "interview". If you go to the second "interview" be prepared to wear very comfortable dress shoes. You will be doing lots of walking. Do you really want to do door-to-door sales for commission pay with no benefits? Do you really want to manage a Cydcor affiliate office? Many independent Cydcor offices close within 1-2 years due to deceptive recruiting practices.

Linked-In Marketing, Inc (Boston, MA)
Beware of attractive, but possibly deceptive job ads which offer entry-level training in management, marketing, and sales especially if the ads state "face to face" and "no experience required". If you decide to interview with such a company, ask many questions before accepting employment. Will you be paid minimum wage or commission? Are there company benefits? Beware of invitations for an all-day second "interview".
Cydcor affiliates are job scams because of their deceptive job ads. Many recent college graduates are enthusiastic to accept the "sales and marketing" commission-only jobs, but many job seekers are only interested in a job with a real hourly wage or salary with real benefits (health insurance, etc), not a commission-only (performance based) job requiring lots of driving, lots of walking, and no benefits.
Linked-In Marketing, Cydcor corporate licensee, has no relation to LinkedIn.com. I would not be surprised if LinkedIn.com takes legal action with Linked-In Marketing to force a company name change. Linked-In Marketing shares the same office and telephone number as Simple Marketing Solutions, simplemarketingma.com. Sometimes you will find two to three Cydcor affiliates sharing the same office space or the same owner has changed company name two or three times which is not unusual.

Big Sky Marketing (Boise, ID)
Beware of attractive, but possibly deceptive job ads which offer entry-level training in management, marketing, and sales especially if the ads state "face to face" and "no experience required".

Beware of invitations for an all-day second "interview".
Beware of invitations for an all-day second "interview". If you decide to go to the second "interview", wear comfortable shoes as you will be doing lots of walking trying to sell door-to-door.
Big Sky's Craigslist job ads (search "entry level") state they are currently working with the nation's third largest telecommunications company (Century Link). Big Sky does not identify itself in the Craigslist ads. Big Sky operates like other Cydcor affliates. Sky's reps would go door-to-door to sell Century Link services to business or residential customers.

Merritt, Inc (Martinez, CA) formerly Accel Marketing (Concord, CA)
Now why do you suppose this Smart Circle affiliate changed its name from Accel Marketing, Inc. (accelsf.com) to Merritt, Incorporated? Why did this affiliate move from Concord, CA to Martinez, CA?
Why are Smart Circle affiliates considered job scams? The job ads are deceptive. The ads say they are hiring for positions in sales, public relations, event marketing, customer service, and management, but they are really hiring sales people. Look at their various job ads on Craigslist, CareerBuilder and Monster. Some affiliates will disclose their company names, but many will only use the initials of their names or not disclose their names at all. Accel Marketing, Inc would always use AMI as their company name in their CareerBuilder ads.
Merritt's Craigslist ads state Gas Reimbursement under Compensation. Really?
This Smart Circle affiliate will pay you to drive to the Costco, Home Depot or Sam's Club?
If you decide to interview with Merritt, ask about the gas reimbursement.
Will you be paid minimum wage plus commission?
How many hours and how many days a week will you be required to work?
What will you really be doing if you are hired by Merritt?

Zirfa Travel Network (San Mateo, CA)
Update March 2012: Zirfa Travel no longer exists. The date of the company shutdown is unknown.
Always do your research. Some advertisers really are scams. If the job ad does not "look right", looks vague or deceptive, or the company website looks cheap with stock photographs, use caution and beware before you send your resume.
The blog entry below was originally published on 04/24/2011.
***
Be cautious of home-based travel business opportunities. Read all the "fine print" in the contract (Terms & Conditions). Zirfa Travel Network may be a legitimate start-up business, but their website is missing some very important information such as company information and management information.
This blog is not intended to defame or libel any legitimate business. The purpose of this blog is to present publicly available information so that job seekers can make informed decisions regarding interviews and job offer acceptance.
Why is the Zirfa Travel Network website called zirfa.net instead of zirfatravel.com?
