GBTax responsibility not factored into profits Not a scam but just keep in mind they don’t include your tax responsibilities when presenting potential profits. Shopify reports all sales to the IRS. You’ll be responsible for sales tax on all sales and federal taxes on all profits. Once factored in, the profits are very minimal, if any. Company is legit and their people are very professional, just not worth it when everything is factored in.

GBHighly recommend!! I just want to say that this ecommerce agency rocks! I worked with them for three months, in the beginning sales were a bit slow and I was a bit worried, but they told me that the store was still in the testing phase and I should be patient. I'm in the 3rd month and they've totally transformed the store, sales went up in the middle of the second month and i'm making more than i could imagine, they've totally nailed it! The team was friendly and patient with me, which I really appreciated. If you're looking for help with your online business or you're looking to start, these guys are the real deal!

GBVery Expensive, Not Worth It, and Low Success I feel strongly that the fee this business charges for store setup is way too high, and not worth it. There are many other companies out there charging much less for the same services. After discontinuing my business with this company and receiving a partial refund of $2k, which was all they were willing to offer, I still feel I vastly overpaid. I have been working with Shopify store managers I hired directly at a low hourly rate, since they're based abroad, and have already found their work to be of higher quality. We have researched many more quality products as well. I wish I had saved my money and tried this out myself. I do not feel like The Leading Group was doing anything that special or value-add for me with such a high startup cost, and then such a high monthly fee. Thankfully I quit before the monthly fee started. I would amend my review if the startup cost had been lower. Now that I see what these services entail and what they are worth, I really did overpay for a store template that was cloned for me, and for a store with minimal success, which mostly only offered one single product, and had typos and bad styling throughout.

ECI wish I'd bought 7k in toilet paper The 2nd week after hiring this company I was contacted by the website starter. She spoke broken English and it was difficult to communicate. Took about 2 or 3 weeks for the first item and the site to be completed. It made 0 sales. Took about 3 weeks longer to build a new site and new product which didn't make enough revenue to cover the advertisements (600+mo). The company also charges minimal $500 monthly. So your sales after tax, shipping, cost, and ads needs to be around 2k to make a profit. Its a head ache at best, but you are looking for a quick way to spend 7k of Savings, give it a shot

GBI started working with the leading… I started working with the leading group abt 8 months ago. I only have good things to say, I think this was a good investment. Before them, I worked with some other agency to do this with, but I finally fired them. I decided to come work with the leading group and my sales are actually really good. I wish I came here first rather than going to the other one. So far I’m very happy and I love the team here! AMAZING because they actually care.
