JVs: How to gracefully handle it when they don't email as promised?
Any ideas on how to handle that gracefully? I do 2 things, though I still run into the occasional person who "says they're going to email, but doesn't":
1) I do tell people ahead of time, that I'm considering working with (for example for jv webinars, co-promoted to both peoples' lists), that I have anonymous 'seed' emails opted in ahead of time, which I do, to verify compliance.
2) Making it as appealing as possible to their self-interest for "reasons why" to email, such as commisshes for all sales, helps.
any other ideas? mostly if someone says they'll email but doesn't, I just don't work with them anymore, as there's plenty of people who want to work together. Trying to figure out how to prevent the fail-to-email-as-promised issue. I've had that happen in seminars, product launches, jv webinars, you name it; sometimes people say they will do something, but don't honor their promises. Whenever I say I'll email, I do, 100% of the time and always have. But not everyone else is like that.
thx,
k
