Website & Marketing Advice
Hey, business is risky. And while we love using our experiences and those of countless other entrepreneurs we know and have worked with, business is still risky. Any advice provided in the resources within this website, including material delivered via email, live events including webinars and screencasts, and video tutorials are for educational and informational purposes only and should not take the place of hiring a professional consultant (or us) for personalized advice. We cannot guarantee any particular results, as such outcomes are based on subjective factors that are not within our control.
Affiliates
Guess what? If you click on a link that we’ve provided, it might be a link to someone who will give us a commission if you buy something from their site. That means that we might get paid if you click on that link. And the reason why we’re telling you this is because we want to be upfront with you, and because it’s illegal not to. (So, you know, right side of the law and all.) However, we only recommend products and services that we know or trust to be of high quality, whether an affiliate relationship is in place or not. All that said, we promise to use any affiliate commissions earned for good causes: like reinvesting in this business to bring you even better resources.
Our Training Products
We love the products we offer on our Training Site, and we hope you do, too. That said, sometimes we might slip up, and sometimes, errors happen. Things like pricing or product descriptions get mixed up…after all, we’re only human. While that stinks, what’s most important to us is that you’re happy. So while we can’t guarantee that all information on the site is always 100% accurate at any given time, we’ll do our best to ensure it is as accurate as humanly possible. If you do notice a mistake, please don’t hesitate to contact us and let us know. We’ll also try to give you the best customer service we can to remedy the situation.
