Hello,

The ACP # is your Arise Certified Professional number. If you have already signed up and started the process you will find this number under your profile.

Will they still give the $50.00 off?

Thanks again

I tell you, i seen some of the post myself before i started the process, and i am glad i made my own decision. I took the plunge and do not regret it one bit. You will always have some people that will have a lot of negative things to say, but what i looked at is, those people are still there, so hmmmm. You will have so much freedom and get to service fortune 500 clients, just wait you will see.

Well, a debit card won't work, I even called them. She gave me the number of the place that does the check, I called, left a msg, they haven't called back.

I am new here. I just found this forum right in time because I was actually looking for an established VSC. And I am so glad I went to this site. I recently passed ACP 101 but can't afford to be incorporated at this time. So I chose ti be under Lexsine's corporation and I would say that she does really help me. I really do appreciate her. I need to wait after Dec. 9 to start client's classes b/c we are going out of town and we can't missed trainings. I am excited about it, though. I hope everything works fine for everybody. Best wishes.

Kathi,

Were you able to move forward with the process?

I would like to know exactly how much money I'm going to have to come up with. I know the ACP101 is $99.00, because that's where I took a step back on the process. I do not mean this to be negative in anyway. But when your looking for a job and the next thing you know your being asked to pay out money it just concerns me. I don't have money to be putting out. Thank you to anyone that can address this question.

I got ACP 101 for free. It was a promo that lasted 'till Nov. 6. I am not sure if they have the same promo again. Arise is not an employer. It is stated clearly on their site. You will form and establish your own business through them. In every business, there is investment.

I understand they are not an employer. That's nice you were able to do your ACP for free, however that is not the case now. How great is the investment??? That's what I need to know. After the 99.00 what other certifications are going to be charged for. Can anyone give me an approximate amount of out of pocket and how long did it take anyone working with them to recover the fees.

Google it. Search "Arise reviews" and you will find plenty of reviews and comments about them. Mostly positive. And they also mention how much money they are getting and how long 'till they get the investment back. I am new to Arise myself but I research everything about them before I continue and get this far. They are A+ rating by BBB. Best wishes.

Thank you, I did my research. I will not be following through with this venture. To many fees without enough substance. It would appear agents that have been there a long time (3 plus years) are not to thrilled anymore. Not to mention 200.00 a pop training everytime you want to get on with a new or different client.
To RICH for my blood. But good luck to all that can afford it.
