Reputations Have a Trickle Down Impact
I want to open up a discussion about something I am just now noticing in my own business. Something to be aware of and cautious about...
I recently promoted a marketer's product. I love the marketer. I love the product. No problem there.
So now my subscribers are also on this person's list.
That marketer starts promoting a marketer who has a tarnished reputation. So MY subscribers start emailing me saying, "Hey that guy you promoted is telling me to buy from this other crappy guy, so you shouldn't promote the original marketer anymore because his ethics aren't solid."
Whoops!
Now how I just handled it is to notify my subscribers that I'm not a blank check kinda girl. When I promote someone and their something, I'm ONLY promoting that someone's something, not their entire line of products, not their entire future affiliate promotion emails, etc.
Be aware that when you promote someone, you're telling people they can TRUST this marketer too, NOT just that this one product is good, so from now on, I'm going to be specifically reminding people about this.
Many of my customers got burned because they bought the item this guy was promoting from another marketer and it was trash (so they emailed the original source - me).
