Was this mean?
So I forwarded a link to a free ebook that she can opt in and download with a note:
"Read this through twice, take notes and then we'll talk about the direction to help you take." (It was longer than that, of course, but that was the main part.)
I got a very curt email back saying "if you didn't want to help, just say so."
*sighs*
To me, what I did was the best course to take.
- There are 112 pages of info in the book. Free. And I can't say it any better than the author does.
- I'm asking for her to put forth a little effort before I invest my time to help her.
- She is a complete newbie. She doesn't know enough to even get started at this point.
- I want her to have an idea of where she wants to go before I sit down with her.
So.....was my approach wrong? Insensitive?
How have you handled situations like this?
