where to begin about Ira Cohen a.k.a. Ronald Johnson...this guy is one of the worst kinds of scammers, he preys on peoples dreams of becoming a signed recording artist, soliciting $500-$1000's a pop to "produce" an artists album and get it exposed to "30 record companies in 30 days" this sounds vaguely like those modeling agencies that want to charge you to...

Makeitorbreakit.com Beware of this marketing scam

This complaint is regarding Ron Johnson, owner of Makeitorbreakit.com, who operates his business from his home in Las Vegas. He and his employees spend the majority of their 10 to 12-hour work day sending spam to hundreds of people on myspace, youtube, craigslist, etc. promising them a career in the music industry for a small fee starting at $500 for the least expensive starter package. If someone responds, they extract as much personal information from that person leaving them with very little information about the company. They will request personal contact information such as your email, home address, and phone numbers. Be careful disclosing your personal information as this company will send you lots of spam and will constantly make telemarketing calls to your phone, even if you express disinterest in their offers. The owner/ main producer, Ron Johnson, made me beats that came out sounding generic and homemade. My cd's were produced 2 weeks after I was promised them and I didn't get any media exposure for the $1, 000 package I ordered with this company. It all sounds great, but trust me, you can do what they do at home for free, if you have a computer, music software, a mic, and internet. Not to mention, Ron Johnson seems to have "issues"- I'm not trying to speak badly of him, but he is slightly odd and extremely verbally abusive to his staff and some clients. If you're interested in doing business with makeitorbreakit, I would strongly recommend thoroughly investigating the company before handing over your cash. I'm sure you will feel the same once you see the real thing behind all the fancy advertising and false promises that this company will get you "seen and heard" by the world.

Makeitorbreakit.com Mistreatment of Employees

This complaint is regarding Ron Johnson, owner of Makeitorbreakit.com, who operates his business from his home in Las Vegas (or was at the time of my observations) and pays his employees under-the-table. I speculate he is operating this business without a license. He is extremely verbally abusive to his employees including constant violent threats, sexist comments, insults, and sexual harassment of female employees for lengths of time as long as entire 12-hour shifts. He generally keeps 3 to 4 people employed for a few weeks to a couple of months and then fires everyone for not being as skilled as him notwithstanding his lack of ability to adequately train. Due to the the "under-the-table" status and no official contract, records, or paperwork, employees choose not to fight it and just move on. He then hires a whole new group of people and this cycle goes on and on. His employees do work that he could easily do himself, but he enjoys telling someone else to do the work, then break them down with insults of incompetence only to end up doing everything himself anyway. He and his employees spend the majority of the 10 to 12-hour work day sending spam to hundreds of teens on myspace, youtube, etc. promising them a career in the music industry for a small fee starting at $500 for the least expensive starter package. If they're able to contact someone directly, they extract as much personal information from that person as possible, leaving them with very little information about the company. His favorite place to find potential future employees is the Las Vegas Craigslist job section under Admin/Office and Customer Service. He used to advertise under the name of his business, makeitorbreakit.com, but due to recent complaints, he has been soliciting people from behind amateur recording artists' homepages and vague posts targeting people interested in working in the music business (these ads and homepages always look similar as they're generally designed with a simple template). I'm reporting this because Mr. Johnson is toying with peoples' lives under the guise of an alleged illegitimate business while getting a rise out of verbally abusing, threatening, intimidating, and sexually harassing people that are looking for legitimate work in a very difficult economic time.

Makeitorbreakit.com CON GAME!!!!!

Ira (Ron) Cohen runs makeitorbreakit.com. This is what you have to look forward to.
1. $500 a month for the first month.
2. over $1000 the next month to print up 30 packages at approximately $17.00 per package.
3. You will pay for all of your marketing at prices that may or may not be accurate.
4. Phone calls from supposed record executives. unfortunately none of these contacts will be able to be verified. they probably don't even work for the record companies.
5. Mr. Cohen's pompous attitude, huge ego and his tendency to be contrary.
6.

Mr. Cohen - who won't tell me his first name, address, or give a photo almost suckered me into a personal assistant position. He is located around W Craig's Road in Las Vegas, Nevada.Spoke with this man personally on the phone. Very condescending, egotistical, and asks inappropriate and unprofessional questions during the interview. He name drops celebrities that he's worked with, says he's a lawyer with multiple degrees and been in the entertainment industry for 30-40 years! All talk and no credentials. His posting is currently on Craigslist at http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/ats/4528510825.html. His current website is http://whatdidtheydo.org/. He has multiple and similar websites attempting to sell advertising for commercials. According to this website here is his other attempts at websites associated with the gmail account mrcohenthemanager@gmail.com: http://www.ipaddressden.com/email/mrcohenthemanager@gmail.com.html. He is linked to this singer http://www.reverbnation.com/tiffanytatum as her manager. Uses multiple phone numbers for his businesses. He also posted for an A&R position 3 years back. http://www.pandahi.com/1005151198.html Makes me sick that a guy would take advantage of people. His posting said that he's looking for light office work but on the phone said I would be making business deals with executives, going to conventions, working in video and music production. "Mr.Cohen" thinks he knows it all -- NOT! Other websites: http://mrcohenthemanager.com/1/ Someone needs to shut this guy down from scamming honest, legitimate people. He knows nothing about the music business. He is a poser!

Makeitorbreakit.com Scam

I would not recommend Make It Or Break It recording studio services. The main producer/ Director made me beats that came out sounding generic and homemade. My cd's were produced 2 weeks after I was promised them and I didn't get any media exposure for the $1, 000 package I ordered with this company. It all sounds great, but trust me, you can do what they do at home for free, if you have a computer, music software, a mic, and internet.
