If I'm starting a business...I think it's unethical. If I'm starting a business I want to know all the details. We have the right to know them. If someone only provides pumped up hype, then they're not at all ethical IMHO. Just my two cents. ;)<br /><br />SamsonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17209363.post-1020301895530871792007-01-16T20:47:00.000-05:002007-01-16T20:47:00.000-05:00Hi all.

In my opinion it is unethical to sell i...Hi Aaron,<br /><br />In my opinion it is unethical to sell it without giving your prospects all the information they deserve. Things shouldn't be sugarcoated or crafty in my opinion.<br /><br />For example, when Joe Blow shares with everyone how he makes $30,000 a month and how "easy" it is, he should ALSO mention that it took him many, many years in order to reach that level of income. But too many don't do that and that leaves the new people with a false sense of excitement and hope. <br /><br />And when they don't reach stellar results immediately they feel bamboozled and throw in the towel. So yeah I think it's unethical. Also down right lame.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17209363.post-1168884364868870932007-01-15T13:06:00.000-05:002007-01-15T13:06:00.000-05:00I think just selling the dream is unethical too.

You have to include the truth and facts also when you're talking to a person about your business or products.<BR/><BR/>If you're not giving them the full skinny and instead trying just to make it look all rosy and millionaire-ish, then that's very unethincal IMHO.<BR/><BR/>Like you said Aaron, truth and full disclosure are VERY important. Otherwise you're setting up your business and your downline for nothing but failure!<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>MonicaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
