It only takes a few of us to hire a lawyer in Colorado and freeze these guys assets. If they really went out of business, then other individuals are looking to collect on them, we should act fast. They promised us lifetime coaching and we are not getting that. We need to find a lawyer in Colorado and take action.
Has anyone tried contacting the company that makes the mints in Canada to see if we can get product from them? We should at least be able too continue our franchise until we make these guys pay!
Does anyone know the company which makes the Mints in Canada? I would love to kknow that info.
I think we should pursue them legally , I'm on board, long way from Denver here in Canada but whatever it takes to make them pay. I have some info that might help , I have filed reports with FBI and locall police but class action is what we need to do Logans real name is Colin Erdman also look at reviveright.com
I think most of us like the product and can see it's value in the market place. I'm most interested in having access to the product , the logos, trademarks... which is what I paid for. I don't know who the manufacturer is but would be real interested in contacting them. If the product could be made available without the middleman mark up it its a step in the right direction.
According to the current Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) for Revive Franchising LLC, a number of management changes took place within the past 6-8
months.
Chris Robertson, the former COO of the defunct Kacey Fine Furniture, was named Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer of Revive Franchising LLC in January, 2011.
The same month, Mike Kelty was named Chief Marketing Officer & Chief Strategy Officer. Prior to that he was a VP of Sales for Summit Brick & Tile.
William Wotochek was promoted to President of Revive Franchising LLC last December.
Paul Haverstick served as Business Coach and Marketing Manager of Revive Franchising LLC.
I am on board with hiring a lawyer as well. I too live in Canada. I have filed a complaint with the ics.gov site. Paul haverstick told me the mints were made in vancouver bc. I don't know anything else about that.
Cant believe this is hapoening, After 1 year of the business I finally started placing the machines and landed a huge retailer. Does anyone know what is going on?
I too believe the manufacturer is located in Vancouver, it would be great if we could get the product for ourselves and cut out the markup. The new franchise document also says the previous management sold 100% interest in the company in January. It appears this is when the new management changes took place. These guys at a very minimum should be required to provide us with where we can still get the product. Has any one found a lawyer in Colorado?
