The Deception Perception: Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain
The Deception Perception
Without a doubt, people would rather do business with someone
they know, like, and trust. Credibility is critical. This is
especially true conducting business on the internet where people
never actually meet face to face. Building a sense of trust with
your customers takes time. And, it's one of your most valuable
assets.
Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain
I recently had the opportunity to hear a well known internet
marketer speak. It was a great presentation, chock full of all
sorts of useful tips. I was very impressed with all he had to
say so I went to his website and signed up for his newsletter.
He sent me an email (by autoresponder, of course) saying he had
set up a special call for his newest subscribers to give us more
great tips. All we had to do was dial in at a certain time for a
teleseminar. He sent me a followup email reminding me and saying
again how much he appreciated having me on his list. He looked
forward to having me on the call.
So Far, So Good.
Last night, I dialed in at the scheduled time (after rearranging
my schedule to do so). The gentleman came on and said he'd be
with us in just a few moments, he was gathering up his notes.
Then, he came back on, told us because of the number of people
on the call, he had us all muted and
there wouldn't be time for
any questions. He went on to deliver some great information
followed by a sales pitch.
The Problem.
One small, tiny, little problem. He wasn't really there. It was
a recording. Now, if I had known it would be a recording, it
wouldn't have bothered me a bit because the information was
good. But, being led to believe it was live, being given a bit
of a smoke and mirror show, changed my perception of the man and
his products. If this teleseminar was smoke and mirrors, are his
products smoke and mirrors, too? Is it all just a slick
manipulation to sell products that don't work?
I certainly don't want to spend money on a product that teaches
me how to be slick and deceptive.
The Moral of the Story
Seemingly harmless deceptions create a lack of trust for
customers who are quick to look elsewhere for more trustworthy
solutions.
