Client Review on Yurz

Feedback:

At first I really didn't want to take the time to write this review after coming across Yurz, but as a former sales person for them, I think it's my duty to spend a few minutes here and possibly save one person from getting ripped off when I so masterfully convinced hundreds of people to sign up with this garbage company. I worked for them under a few of their many previous different DBAs, back when the actual Corporation (to my knowledge) was called LinkTech Worldwide. Of course, I never used that name on the phone during my cold calls, we were always using a DBA for cover (all ridiculous names - rarely, when time to change the DBA again because the bad online reviews had stacked up as always, would the new name not be some embarrassingly generic-yet-hyperbolic nonsense like Premier Global Media. Reminds me of a certain scene from Step Brothers).It was only after I left the company for an agency that actually did this type of work correctly that I realized just how much of a scam these guys are running. If you're a prospect of theirs, run. If they already got your credit card, cancel it. The good reviews here? One is from Dominick Whelton, quick Google search shows he's a Yurz employee. Another customer review is from a Savannah Lee, when not much farther down the page another review from an actual customer says that she was his salesperson. After all these years, they can't even get the simple parts of running a sham company convincingly right. The shame is, if they put half as much effort into just having a team that does the work properly for their customers (I can't bring myself to call those conned into signing up for the service "clients") as they're forced to put into constantly running from their own bad reputation for worthless services, they'd have a decent business on their hands.If you're thinking about working there, don't do it. The money is ok, but it's less than you'd make at a serious SEM/SEO/Design agency (the kind you can work at and sleep at night knowing you're doing good work for clients you're proud to work with,, not scraping broke realtors from the bottom of a lead barrel and convincing them to spend the last of their budget for a scam).And the way employees are treated by management and executive teams is toxic. Lookup LinkTech, it's all out there for your reading pleasure. The one confusing thing about working there comes in the form of a guy named Dave Solonika (pretty sure that's his last name). Where everyone else at his level or above in the corp structure obviously knows they're running a scam and don't care (seriously, the "disgusting human being" vibe is thick), Dave actually always seemed like a genuinely decent, relatively smart dude who believed in the company and its service. How it was possible, I'm not sure. There's just no way he's stupid enough to not see what's going on. He's either a great actor willfully ripping people off like the rest, or a fascinating example of denial/cognitive dissonance like I've never seen. Might be worth working there a week, keeping a bag of popcorn with you and just watching the confusing spectacle that is this guy living in his bubble.
