On Gery Carson's Strong Future International (SFI) webpage, you see a photograph of a nice one-story brick building. The photo caption indicates that it's SFI's "corporate headquarters."
Strong Future International tries to give an impression that they are doing very well. They are doing "so well" that they have a nice, brick building with plenty of surrounding space. Not only did Gery Carson have plenty of space inside, but he had plenty of space surrounding his corporate headquarters building.
You have grass on one side and a large parking lot on the other side. The photo gives an impression of a multi staffed operation.
However, a Google search of 8251 Northwoods Drive, Lincoln, NE 68505, SFI corporate address, shows something different. Google maps showed two buildings, side-by-side, that look similar to the one shown on Gery Carson's Strong Future International website.
In the same area, three additional buildings stand on the opposite side of the parking lot. A roundabout separates these rows of buildings.
The three buildings on the other side are larger versions of the one listed for SFI's address. This looks similar to a shopping district. In fact, a real estate listing on loopnet.com lists this as "Northwoods Plaza."
Loopnet.com listed one of the bigger buildings, in Northwoods Plaza, as being up for sale for well over $1 million. In the description, the building is described as having a high-quality tenant base.
In other words, multiple tenants occupy different suites in those buildings.
SFI's address had a Suite 200 listed. Loopnet.com had a listing for the building, but not up for sale. 8251 is the number listed on the building. Strong Future International listed a Suite 200 as their address. It's obvious that the building in SFI's photo isn't entirely Strong Future International's.
Instead, Gery Carson's SFI is renting one of the suites inside of building 8251. Even if the window, to SFI's suite, is visible in the SFI photo, it's not detailed or identified. Strong Future International leaves that information out. Most viewers will think that the entire building is SFI's corporate headquarters.
That's not true.
So, if Strong Future International had any business ethics in them, they would not try to claim an entire building as their headquarters. Instead, they would've posted a picture featuring Suite 200 as their corporate headquarters.
If Gery Carson's Strong Future International is being deceptive about its headquarters, what else is it being deceptive about?
