Default Arise.com

It seems like you have to fork out a lot of money to work for them. Has anyone forked out the money only to find they couldn't get into a position they liked or with the hours they were looking for? I am looking to work appr 10 - 20 hours/week. I don't want to sell anything or upsell. Is this a comapny I should bother with? Thanks.

I've never worked for Arise, but I've read a lot of posts here and on other work-at-home forums about them. I think it depends on the person. Some people seem very satisfied, and some people hate it. You might want to try working under someone who already has their LLC first, before you invest the money.

Do you know if it costs money, and if so, about how much, to work under someone else's LLC? Thanks.

Smile Arise Open Door Super VSC

Hi! I would be happy to send you some information about Arise and our Super VSC. We have hundreds of agents servicing the Arise clients under our corporation. The Arise Facebook page has a lot of good information. You have to pass a background check and ACP101. You choose what client you want to train for and training last about 4 weeks 4 hours a day Mon-Fri. Once you certify you start working and making your own schedule every week. They have LOTS of clients but currently Int*it, AT*T and T*me are open for training. They have customer service, Sales or Tech clients available.

Please email me at mbrown@opendoormultiservices.com

Unhappy failed my assessment :(

hi,

i had my certification test today for Intuit/TurboTax. I didnt pass. I was given 2 chances.

i was under somone's corporation and as far as i know it didnt cost anything to sign under her.

i did have to pay the background check which was 13$....and i did have to pay for the ACP 101 test....i paid 19.99....ITS NORMALLY 100$!!....but from time to time they run a sale.

i also had to pay for the client training course....i paid 19$.....it was actually 49$ but they were giving you a 30$ credit voucher......

so how much you have to put out really depends on numerous things....first will you have to go and buy a computer? do you have high speed internet? a telephone with very basic service (i.e. no features on the phone)? a headset?

assuming the above meets the arise requirements then you take the following into consideration.......the background check and ACP 101 test and if you sign under someone or bring your own llc and the client you will work (AT&T, Intuit, Staples, Barnes & Nobles, Walgreens, Royal Caribbean, Carnival Cruise, Apple, Disney Cruise, Time,etc....THERE ARE SO MANY TO LIST)

for me----13$ + 20$ + 20$ = $53 (that's how much it cost me to get started)

i think i will try another client, but i want a client that i can do strictly mon-fri no weekends or something better like a chat/email agent only they are hard to find....

Very few of the Arise clients require selling. AT&* has a few different departments that Arise uses ACPs for and one of them pays a flat $9-14/hr depending on metrics and the other pays 19cents-28cents per minute based on metrics. My ACPs usually make between $10-13/hr. There are some startup costs such as their ACP101 course which is normally $99 but they have specials at times where it goes down to $19 and some VSCs such as mine will refund half of it after you service for 120 days. AT&*'s classes are only $79 up front which is about the lowest that they have but again, we'll refund half after you service for 120 days. Other then that, you can make up those costs if your first check if you work enough. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to email me at spoland@spolandsolutions.com.

I agree with you Lisa. The one thing I've definitely noticed though is that just people just don't have the work at home mentality. I'm not sure if it's because they expect it to be easy because it's work at home. I've serviced with a few different work at home companies though and I definitely like Arise the best.
