Today I attended a webinar (online web seminar) about a company called Seeing Angels Two by Two. I have a few things to point out, suggest, and discuss about this company. It sounds like a great offer. The whole deal with Seeing Angels Two by Two is that they help you get hired with an online work at home company called Arise, which, in turn, assists a wide variety of other companies (inbound selling, outbound calls, chat lines, etc.) in finding great employees. If that doesn't make sense then it's sort of like:
SA2B2 --> Arise -> Many employers > WORK!
How Seeing Angels Two by Two Works:
It's very simple to get some assistance through the SA2B2 company. A quick email with you basic information and declaration of interest will begin a process. They will send you links, help you when you're stuck, guide you through the Arise material, and even can help reduce costs* on getting hired with Arise. Once you've gone through the SA2B2 hoops then you're pretty much in to be hired by a company that goes through Arise--well, after a quick background check that will cost you only $10.
What the Pay is Like:
Pay varies by which company you choose to apply for through Arise. The average pay wage is well above minimum wage and you can expect to earn pretty decent money in you first year of work from these virtual call centers and otherwise. Some companies pay in the teens of dollars while others will pay $9 or so. It varies, is all, and you can easily inquire about each position and the usual pay rates before going through the whole process.
Wait...What's the Catch?
The catch is something that needs to be said right away and very clearly. Seeing Angels Two by Two had a great webinar tonight; however, there were some red flags that make me, personally, uneasy about this opportunity. I will list them out so that you can decide for yourself about this possible home income opportunity:
1. There was a lot of errors on the pages presented during the meeting. Maybe I'm just being picky but some of the lines were absolutely hilarious or just didn't make any sense. I actually took some screen captures of this mess so that I could have a good giggle later about my work at home adventures. I'm talking, horrible spelling, grammar, and punctuation meets Chinglish. There were spaces where spaces didn't belong. Commas were periods should go. Heck, there was even one sentence jumble so clue no suppose that was people (or, rather: that was so jumbled you had no clue what it was suppose to say). My thinking is this: If you can't spend enough time proofreading the material you're about to present me with then why would I expect to be treated professionally by you?
2. I'm not entirely sure how Seeing Angels Two by Two get paid. They mentioned a referral bonus for signing up people under you once you get hired on by Arise. I take this as meaning that SA2B2 also get paid to refer you. Now, it's possible that they're just in it for the referral money. They refer a thousand people and they're sure to get paid some when a few hundred sign-up, if you get what I'm saying. I can't say that's how it works, but it sure seems like it from this angle.
*3. Someone mentioned the decreased cost in going through Seeing Angels Two by Two instead of directly through Arise. At first it sounded like you got a great cost relief from this company, but, later, it sounded like you didn't get any extra-special cost reductions or benefits other than some helpful advice when filling out online forms for Arise. This leads me to think that maybe they're giving answers to people who are filling out assessments on the Arise site so that a person can get hired and they will get a referral fee. I have no idea.
There is also the fact that you are an independent contractor and not an actual employee. This is perfectly fine for most people. I have no problem with this. I'm just kind of confused why I need to be referred to be referred to a legitimate company then, right? I mean, SA2B2 will refer me to Arise who will, then, refer me to a reputable company for employment. I guess if it works then it works. For note, this opportunity is not available to Filipinos to anyone currently residing in the Philippines.
Note: I am not saying Seeing Angels Two by Two is a scam by any means. I am only saying I'm not sure if it's really beneficial to go through this company to get hired by Arise.
