Canoco Publishing

My experience with Canoco Publishing has always been nothing short of stellar. I’ve been dealing with them for years. Makes me wonder if the negative reviews are coming from competitors? There is no person that works for her clients like Taaffe. They let me use quotes from the articles on my website and this has really worked for me. I definitely recommend them to anyone who really wants to grow their business!

Canoco publishing is one of the most reputable business that I have dealt with I don’t know what these other people are taking about! Taffa works so hard to give her clients a quality product in their articles and advertising I know because I have advertised with Taffa for years.

Canoco is Fantastic!!! I don’t know what these people are talking about they sound crazy! I’ve worked with Canoco and Taffa for years they have always given me high quality adds and articles at extremely low prices they work SO hard! I would recommended them to everyone.

I was very happy with my ad with Canoco Publishing. The ad and the writeup I received really helped promote my business and everyone I spoke with loved the directory. Taaffe O’Connell and everyone at Canoco worked very hard to make me happy and succeeded 100%, I will use them again!

I got scammed out of my money exactly like the other two people. Taaffe O’Connell is a con artist. Even though this site shows Canoco Publishing is closed, she is still running her business under it. She came to my office in October, interviewed me, got the money and left. She drafted a version of the interview that was poorly written and that was it. No publication, no advertising, nothing and of course she is no where to be found. I filed a fraud report with WLA Police Department, called my local FBI office and gave a full report on her and also made a complaint with BBB.

Yes, I also made the BIG mistake of placing an Ad in one of Canoco’s publications. Ms. Taaffe O’Connell very quickly took my credit card payment for $ 900. At the top of my contract she wrote” guarantee that I will get clients from my AD or she would «rebate monies»
Well, it has been one year and NOT ONE PHONE CALL OR LEED OR CLIENT WAS EVER GENERATED FROM THE AD I PLACED.
When I attempt to contact or email her now, she will not respond. I even sent certified letters w/​return receipt. I tracked the letters and indeed they did make it to her office but she evidently did not sign, since I never received the receipt back.
I should have NEVER given Ms. O, Connell my credit card payment as she is not honest and gives empty promises and false guarantees.

Never support this business. Never advertise in any of Canoco Publications. If you do, make sure you’re savvy enough to get a thorough and iron clad contract! I made the mistake of advertising my healing business with Canoco and set up a payment plan for the service. I was required to write the total amount of the advertising divided into a number of checks. I should have known there was a problem once all the checks were deposited at the same time even though they were postdated. Having a new practice I felt that Taffe’s guarantee to get response from the ad or my money back was a good bet. I was naïve and too trusting. Once I got a copy of the magazine and saw how unprofessional and poorly executed it was, again, should have raised a red flag for me… but alas, I was confident in Ms. O’Connel and her seemingly honest demeanor. A long story short, not a single response from the ad did I receive. When I reviewed my contract I realized that though a «guarantee» was noted, it had no details congruent with what Ms. O’Connel verbally promised me. When I called to talk to her I only got voice mail, and I called several times. I also emailed but again, I got no response. I had no recourse but to report her and Canoco to the Better Business Bureau which was stated they were a part of. Still, I received no response, no even a courtesy call to say that I was out of luck. I see on the BBB site, there have been a number of complaints about Canoco about similar situations and without any response.
So I urge whoever is thinking of working with Taffe O’Connel and Canoco Publishing to learn from my very expensive mistakes: DON’T ADVERTISE WITH OR SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS IN ANY WAY.
I don’t normally write reviews but I thought this important enough to help someone from being cheated the way I was.
