Conflict or interest or competing?
Basically the money has went the wrong way even though my skills have vastly improved.
Through all of this I still wish to stay here and make this job work for me.
I signed a non compete agreement when I started here to not sell now or in the future the same product group we offer for up to 3 years after I leave. I have no plans to sell a competing product.
I had an idea to make a website of my own and promote our products and use the Amazon affiliate program. I could review the products from a personal perspective and send people to Amazon for a small commission of likely 4%.
I would ONLY promote our products. I believe we have the best products in our industry. I could offer a perspective not coming from a cooperate view that might could help customers make a choice.
I am on the fence on this one. I have insider knowledge of keywords we use and data that could help me sell the product. I use this information for my job here as well but the only difference is I would be coming to the customers in a different perspective with my own website.
Is it wrong to use my knowledge to promote the business in a different way and make money on the side?
