FSC Marketing Communications & Rege Sabol & Ed Flaherty

I guess that when things get a little tight over at FSC Marketing (a Pittsburgh Advertising Agency)  Rege Sabol just decides which vendor he just isn’t going to pay.  It doesn’t seem to matter how good a job the vendor did, it just matters that they not complain too loudly when they never get paid for their work.  I might very well be wrong about all this, and this is just my opinion, but I know of myself and one other person that was never paid by Rege Sabol and FSC Marketing, for a job well done.  I also have an email from Rege, admitting that he owed the money and that he promised to pay it.  Well, he still owes most of the money and now he won’t return my emails or phone calls.

So what does this have to do with anything?  Maybe it does and maybe it doesn’t.  But you might want to ask yourself,  “Is this the type of person and company that I want to do business with?”

If you too have not been paid by FSC Marketing and Rege Sabol, after doing a job for them, I’d love to hear from you.  Please leave a comment below.  From what I’ve heard through the grape vine, I’m not the only one this has happened to…

I look at this blog post as sort of a “public service announcement” to any future clients or vendors of FSC Marketing, Rege Sabol and Ed Flaherty.

I almost forgot to mention Ed Flaherty. Ed, who is supposed to be in charge of Accounts Paypable at FSC Marketing, also doesn’t bother to return emails or telephone calls.  I guess that priorities are priorities, and paying faithful vendors must not be one of them.  It’s amazing to me that Pittsburgh Advertising Agencies that refuse to pay their bills,  can survive in this day and age of rapid communication..  You would think that their reputation would proceed them.  Maybe someone should write a blog post or something?

EVERYTHING written above is my personal opinion.  If you’d like to discuss the details of this statement, you can reach me at 412-232-4444.

4/1/15 – And there’s been another update to this never-ending saga.  After sharing this post with the wonderful people at FSC, I was promised payment by the “end of the month”, but guess what?  You got it!  Another promise was broken.  I wonder if they’re that way with client deadlines?  I would assume so…

Here’s our email exchange…
