BusinessGhost is run by a ghostwriter who will charge you professional rates and put less experienced non-professional writers on your project for low rates, while likely pocketing most of your money. This is the case with most of these large ghostwriting companies.

It's like eating in a posh restaurant and having the food coming in from a fast food place.

This company is more deceiving because the owner touts himself all over the place as if he's doing most of the work, which he is not. Perhaps he's a "tad" narcissistic?

The website looks good, the idea isn't bad, but the execution? Whoever came up with it should be executed. Those of us who are in business get to spend money to send out quotes. $1.67 per credit - I thought that meant $1.67 per quote - fair enough, even $3 might be okay, but NO I've seen listings asking for 8, 10, 12 and even 14 credits just to send a number to a client (that's $23.38). Really?

Why would anyone spend $23 to send a blind quote to someone whom they don't know anything about? Thumbtack is a joke. 168 one-star reviews isn't a good thing, considering that employees and the owner and their family usually post a lot of the good reviews.

I tried to unsubscribe and it went to a page that said "welcome back" Seriously! Couldn't make this stuff up. I emailed them to no reply of course.
STAY AWAY, STAY FAR AWAY
