Worried about the Ethics....
So I haven't "started" yet. I am waiting to meet with a CPA to talk about the tax consequences of an online business and what I should have ahead of time to protect myself. (but that's a question for another thread)
My biggest problem with internet marketing is the ethics, or moral, side of it. Whenever I think about me promoting Clickbank products, I shudder. I have this horrifying fear that if I promote a product that I haven't personally used, then someone in trouble will buy it and get screwed. I couldn't sleep at night if there was a hint of doubt that I could have ripped someone off.
So my current plan is to go with Amazon alone, at least for now. Of course I hear all about how bad Amazon can be and their restrictions, but I don't think I really have an option.
One option would be to buy the e-book/course beforehand so I could give it a real review. One warrior suggesting being such an awesome affiliate that I could get a trail copy of ebooks to review ahead of time, but I'm not sure how I would get that.
Another option that I thought of would be to use the War Room once I make a little money and buy the membership. From what I understand people post ebooks on there for free right? I could see the ebook there, give it a real review, and then promote the clickbank version after obtaining permissiom from the author. But then I'd be limited to the IM niche.
So what can I do? CB seems to be the main IM money source, and the way I think it works seems like lying....... Do I not understand? Is there some way to see the product you are promoting BEFORE promoting it?
Sorry, I don't mean to say that all e-books are bad or a scam or rip-off, but I have gotten ripped off before. And I just can't promote something I don't really know about. HELP!
