Has this company gone out of business? I see nothing on their job board and haven't for some time. I contacted Mary from the company but no response.

They have lost a lot of their major clients, but they still have shops in my area. I get frequent emails about shops, and I have one scheduled for later this month.

I did 2 shops for them last month but the pickings have seemed a little slim.

I just did a shop yesterday for a haircut. Those were the only shops I saw posted.

I just got another email from Mary yesterday. Try this. Log in and when you click on Open Opportunities, look for the orange line at the top that says "The postal code and distance below are set according to your profile. Click here to reset and show all opportunities." Click and see if there are opportunities available to you in other areas. Shops are available in several different states.

Thanks for the information. Roflwofl I tried what you mentioned and I got nothing. I did email Mary last week but have heard nothing from her.

I logged in the QAMS from southeast Texas and there were zero opportunities around me.

I haven't seen jobs this year but keep looking.

I get shops on a quarterly basis from one client in my area.

I’ve noticed something is definitely up with this company

Most of the shops for March have been assigned, but I am still seeing open shops in California, Louisiana, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, Oregon, Alaska, and Michigan.

I'm showing a total of 8 shops nationwide.

QAMS posted about 400 shops nationwide a week ago. Most were almost immediately assigned. There are currently 93 shops on their Job Board nationwide.

What do you think is up? I just got a shop for April and did one in March.

I've noticed no difference. They lost a couple of my favorites, but they still have many low-paying shops, all with fast payment. I'm not crazy about the low pay but I like the fast payment and I enjoy some of their clients. QAMS posts most of their shops toward the end of the month for the next month, and, by the time the month starts, almost all of those shops have been assigned. That's what happened this month: about 400 April shops were posted last week. Several generic "shops available" emails went out, and in addition Mary sent at least 2 emails herself notifying shoppers of April shops. 93 nationwide remain.

QAMS tends to deactivate shoppers without telling them they have been deactivated. They can still log in, but they can no longer see any shops, not in their location or nationwide, they don't receive emails notices, and Mary no longer responds to their emails. I think the posters who are asking "what's up with QAMS?" are no longer being offered shops and simply don't realize it. Some companies, like Market Force, make it very clear to shoppers when shops are not available to them any more; other companies like QAMS simply block the shopper from seeing any shops. I'm guessing they find it easier to just cut the shopper off and never respond to him than to be up front about it and risk the shopper's anger, complaints, angry posts on forums, and misguided BBB and MSPA complaints.

QAMS does have shops in my area (Washington)... I just haven't ever done any of them - they simply are not what I generally seek to do....

Not everybody will see the same number of shops posted nationwide. It depends on demographics and qualifications.

The closest one to me is in the next state to the east.

I think they blackballed some shoppers. The shops I used to.do for them are still there but not on my board. I don't see a thing and haven't for months. But friends in the same area see plenty. I keep wondering what I did as I was never told of anything I did wrong with any of my shops.
