Does Anyone Belong To Remodelers Advantage?

[Ed The Roofer]

It sounds like they have some worthwhile meetings and topics.

Good with companies $1,000,000 and up in sales.

Takes time and money to attend meetings.

Ed I have thought about it twice and never committed myself to calling I don't know why.

I spoke to one of the reps at the last nari meeting and made it a priority to at least call and hear them out.

I sent an email to Victoria Downing about this forum I hope she pops in or some one on her staff and give us some information about the group.

I know a remodeler that is a member and he swears by their services.

Are they similar to the services offered by Roofers Success International and the other legs of that group?

Well, a thread I started, but no one responded to, from about 5-6 weeks ago on CT, was just answered today by a slough of 1st time posters from RA.

Multiple shills or same user with different IP's?

Just too much of a coincidence for all of them to post on the same day on a 5-6 week old thread.

Ed I know two remodelers that are members and they both have nothing but good things to say about the group.

They both run very successful companies and do well.

Hopefully we can get some more information about the company. I will see what we can do.

I just found out about the other remodeler today speaking to him on the phone and he was very vocal on the success he has since being a member

I posted this same topic on Contractor Talk 5-6 weeks ago with NO response, until yesterday, when the RA members received an e-mail from Victoria Downing to add their views and comments to the thread topic.

Although they all see glowingly pleased, if you look at the content of their admiration of the organization, it seems like canned rehearsed and cloned commentary, as if parroting what they had been entranced to state if anyone asks.

Jokingly, does anyone remember Heavens Gate and their membership?

Ed, I read all the recent posts over there and I also got a weird feeling. The comments about it seemingly like a cult and scientology are eerie. I have a family member who got trapped in a cult years ago and I and others helped get her out. The way the posters responded rang very familiar. I won't say they are a cult because I know nothing about them and the characterization would not be appropriate, but it is still weird.

That said, I find it strange that this group and its methods are not more visible and well known. Who actually started it? How come more of the well-known guys on CT are not members or not responding? I know of Linda Case from Case Remodeling and have met her once. Seems very knowledgeable and sincere but of course she is only part of the group.

I get the same vibes too.

All of the responses seem scripted.

Don't they all have the exact same familiar tone to them to you too? Not just the Cult analogy, but the words chosen, in some cases, are verbatim from one poster to another.
