Aras Promotions, LLC Aras, LLC dissolved business still providing services Milwaukee, Fox Valley, Waukesha, Wisconsin

6th of Mar, 2011 by User536426

The original company (Aras Promotions) was started about 4 years ago. In that time period, the owner failed to file the State mandated annual reports 2 out of the 4 years in business. The owner dissolved that business in March of 2010; yet continues to run her website as well as her business under Aras Promotions, LLC. Her husband since started a 'new' agency under a similar name in January of 2010 (Aras LLC). He has also failed to file his state required annual report for this year. There is no other information or website associated with Aras LLC. Neither of these "agencies" have their models sign any contractor agreements or contracts, which legally make all their talent their employees, and not independent contractors. They pay no unemployment or worker's compensation to any of their talent when they are not working events. With them running business in this manner, they threaten every other legitimate modeling agency in the State of Wisconsin who do have their talent work as contractors and do have them under contract. Numerous former Aras models have complained about being contacted for one or two jobs, waiting forever to be paid for those jobs, and then never being contacted again for additional work. These same models then receive no unemployment benefits. The owner and her husband reap all the benefits (money) from this agency without taking heed of the legalities of running such a business; caring about the State requirements when it comes to promotional samplings; or caring about the State requirements for running/owning a business.
