Other Added - The Deception Perception - Pay No Attention To The Man Behind The Curtain
In any type of business whether it be a daycare, or a billion dollar retail franchise, one thing is common throughout. In each business, the owner is delivering a product or service to a customer. Many companies focus solely on the value and profitability of the product itself. T
Have you ever started something and not completed it? Or maybe there’s something that you know that you should do but you just don’t seem to get around to it? Or perhaps there’s something that you know would benefit from more attention / more focus but you just don’t give it the
Without a doubt, people would rather do business with someone they know, like, and trust. Credibility is critical. This is especially true conducting business on the internet where people never actually meet face to face. Building a sense of trust with your customers takes time.

Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain
I recently had the opportunity to hear a well known internet marketer speak. It was a great presentation, chock full of all sorts of useful tips. I was very impressed with all he had to say so I went to his website and signed up for his newsletter.
He sent me an email (by autoresponder, of course)saying he had set up a special call for his newest subscribers to give us more great tips. All we had to do was dial in at a certain time for a teleseminar. He sent me a followup email reminding me and saying again how much he appreciated having me on his list. He looked forward to having me on the call.
So Far, So Good.
Last night, I dialed in at the scheduled time (after rearranging my schedule to do so). The gentleman came on and said he’d be with us in just a few moments, he was gathering up his notes. Then, he came back on, told us because of the number of people on the call, he had us all muted and there wouldn’t be time for any questions. He went on to deliver some great information followed by a sales pitch.

One small, tiny, little problem. He wasn't really there. It was a recording. Now, if I had known it would be a recording, it wouldn’t have bothered me a bit because the information was good. But, being led to believe it was live, being given a bit of a smoke and mirror show, changed my perception of the man and his products. If this teleseminar was smoke and mirrors, are his products smoke and mirrors, too? Is it all just a sl
Last week I went to a local pharmacy to have a prescription filled. As I approached the prescription counter I noticed a sign beside the cash register that said, “ Let’s Talk.” Considering it an invitation I said in a friendly, cheery voice, “ OK let’s talk.” and proceeded to say

Seemingly harmless deceptions create a lack of trust for customers who are quick to look elsewhere for more trustworthy solutions.
