Several months ago I put a video up on the tube with that
title. Once I did this it opened up the flood gates about business ethics. I
have had the opportunity on many occasions to experience some very interesting
ethical code by some companies on the net. I really was pissed off about a
situation that I encountered with company that advertised that they could help
me get traffic to my website. Not!!!! Now, I am fully responsible for the
results of my life. “You are today where your thoughts have brought you, you
will be tomorrow where your thoughts can take you.” Pizam
The point is that even though the sales people mislead you
based on the words and the semantics they use to sell their product, you must
learn to ask the correct questions. This experience was a very expensive one.
It cost me over $4000.00 to learn this lesson. What I have come to find out
after several years of building a very successful online/offline business, is
that you do not need SEO and advertising companies to help you generate traffic
and grow your business. What I found even more enlightening, was the ethical
structure that one of the companies I worked with would build your site for you,
but would not add audio and amazingly NO Video’s. This is totally contrary to
all the current popular web 2.0 techniques for drive massive traffic. Now I
realize that these companies have no clue what they are doing and that they are
scamming their customers, not to mention the ethics of their whole process.
I will use my pulpit to speak out about companies and
situation like this. I will not discuss the specific companies here, although I
will do that in person or on the phone, so I can provide proof. There still is
far to much miscommunication and I will not perpetuate this unethical behavior.
I am trying to stop this behavior. Eventually, these companies will find that
the internet is a very small place. It will even become smaller when people
like you and I speak out and conduct ourselves ethically.
I look forward to speaking with you soon.
