Latashia Glover, founder and owner of Girl on Fire and Girl on Fire International hired The BLI Group on April 28, 2014 for the services of graphic design, rebranding and public relations for her event Girl on Fire Awards which was to be held on Sept. 13, 2014 in Euclid, OH.
She willingly and knowingly signed a contract with the terms and conditions for the following public relations services, which totaled 25 hours at a rate of $50 per hour for a total of $1,250:
Develop, plan, execute and promote messaging campaigns
Be responsible for all communications, developing and executing a distribution plan including press releases
Contact and secure individuals from all media mediums and outlets who are in the target and demographic of any events and within reason as well as affordable for the client
Plan, develop, execute and measure communications regarding overall brand messaging
Prioritize, schedule and meet deadlines for distribution for any media opportunities such as press conferences or media junkets
Develop various communications strategies, including delivery methods for various audiences and varying means of access to communications
Direct and confirm communications are being dispersed to various media outlets effectively
Write/edit content, as needed, for article placement for magazine
Create a media/press kit for distribution
We will manage all social media accounts
Create sponsor, vendor and volunteer packages
Our design rates were contracted for $150 per design. We performed two logo designs for marketing, promotional, publications and products which totaled $300. She approved the designs on May 5, 2014 via email.
We also revamped her website at www.girlonfireawards.com for $950 which included copywriting, photo additions and product design. She requested the redesign on May 7, 2014 via phone and text message and then sent the password to us on May 8, 2014 via email. We began working on the website.
She failed to pay her retainer of $500 when she signed her contract. We invoiced her on May 18, 2014 for $1,550, she asked for an itemized receipt which we provided for her of the hours worked. When we called to ask her if she would be able to pay her invoice she said she was waiting on money and told us to keep going. On May 30, 2014 we invoiced her for the website in the amount of $950 and then launched the site on June 1, 2014. We maintained her social media accounts as well.
In June it quickly turned nasty as we asked her repeatedly for payment and she made excuses about not receiving payments and that she was in the hospital. She made several promises to pay verbally, in text and email. She even gave us an account number and authorized the payment verbally and through text.
We attempted to collect the debt and agreed to installment payments of $625 ever two weeks until the balance was paid off. She became belligerent and filed a false report with the Ohio State Attorney General's Office stating that we did not provide her proof of the work that was completed which we did via email on June 30, 2014.
On Sept. 18 we received a notice that a payment the bank paid through Intuit processed but was insufficient on Ms. Glover's end and that we were responsible. We thought it was a phony and disregarded it. We received an email notification and phone call on Nov. 11 for a final collection on the payment of $635 and when we called our accountant we were informed that it was true. We made payment arrangements with Inuit for the next three months. We reached out to Ms. Glover and told her the issue and she refused to pay for the fees we were charged for her stopping the payment.
Girl on Fire, Girl on Firel International and Latashia Glover has consistently performed fraudelent activities.
