What Is Your Word Worth?

When doing business offline, you can read a person by looking in their eyes, watching their body language, and the handshake tells you a lot about the person.

Online however, all you have is your word.

What is your word worth?

How reliable are you?

Do you keep your promises?

Unfortunately I have found almost no one who actually is trust worthy.

I have found very few who keep their word.

I could name names of people who have not kept their word with me, or flaked out on a deal made in good faith, but what's the use?

Maybe you have experienced this for yourself?

Maybe you make a deal with another person and you trade services.

Do you keep you end of the deal or do you flake out?

Did they flake out on you?

Doing business is difficult enough without having to deal with lies, deception, and the cheaters who infest the Internet, after all 98% of everything being promoted is an outright scam.

Do you ever consider what that does to your reputation, trust, and credibility?

Promoting fast cash, one ups, two ups, three ups, cyclers, gifting, money games will quickly mark you as a con artist and a thief.

Is this how you want people to see you?  Is this something good people will ignore and still do business with you?  Not likely.

The worst part is, if you are one of the 2% who are trustworthy, if you do a deal with someone who isn't, not only do you get hurt, you end up hurting others unintentionally.

Plus it does put a ding in your credibility.

If you are reading this and still owe me anything, maybe it's time you shape up and do your part like you said you would.

It's up to you to decide if you are a flake, or are worthy of doing business with.

Be sure to do your homework before you choose the next big thing that comes along, there is something to be said about choosing a program with age.

Good luck in your endeavors.
