Making Changes In Business

7
900 followers

When running a business, a lot of times, there are a lot of changes that are made. When changes that effect other workers, arise, they all must be notified so they can be made aware. This goes for online businesses too. When changes are being made, the members of your site, should be made aware in advance so they won't be surprised when coming on the site. If businesses can send email promotions, email on what others are doing, why can't they send emails to let their members know what is going on. Everybody is not on a site 24 hours a day.

I understand that there are a lot of spammers on the internet, a lot of hackers, etc. There should be programs, that can protect the servers from crashing, or keep spammers away. It is not fare that every person that is doing right has to suffer the consequences because of immature people, and then not be notified of changes that were made. It's a sad shame that grown people can't act their age and not their shoe size. What are they getting out of being childish. I don't understand it. Doing business on line has to be better than what it is. I hope it gets better.

Sorry I made a mistake, I only see $5.00 for one of my trainings when it should be 10 because another one of my trainings has been on level 2 for the longest and I only see $5.00 for one.

Payments only go to Premium members. :)

We make changes here at WA to benefit members, to make the community better, and to make our service better. This was a case of "improvement", whether it negatively impacted you or not, it vastly improved the quality of our community not allowing free members to post websites.

Why? It harboured spam and lots of it. You need to understand that what you are getting for FREE as a Starter, took us millions of dollar to develop and over 7 years and counting to refine and improve upon. On any given week we make 20+ improvements and adjustments to the technology that drives this community, interface improvements, and we are ALWAYS working on new improvements and evolutions to make this place better.

If you want to showcase your sites within your profile, it is simple. Go Premium. We would rather have a few unhappy people that are behaving respectively within the Starter membership (like yourself) than have many others diluting the community and the experience here at WA from the spam and promos that are being pushed. That is our logic and this update to profiles was derived from months of member feedback. We don't make unilateral decisions, on any given day we get 100's of emails/private messages and take part in an equal amount of discussions.

If you feel we are under delivering and you feel that the support you have received, the technology we have offered, the websites we have provided you with, the personal interactions that you have had, and the personal relationships you have built are not with the price tag of FREE, which you have paid as a starter, than I fully encourage you to look for an better solution elsewhere.

Plain and simple. We care about WA. We are invested in WA. We continually improve WA. We know we are never going to be perfect, but that gives us something to continually work towards.

I do appreciate your feedback.

I understand what you are saying Kyle, when i came back on the site, I didnt know how to get to my trainings all of a sudden because it was removed off my profile and i didnt know how to get to them. this blog was not even about Wa it was a general blog. Rich made my blog about Wa. No one said i was dissatisfied and I do plan on upgrading, so my blog was taken out of context.

And I was never credited for one of my trainings. I was only credited for one, when there should be 2 credited.

OK, no problem. Just do know that we make decisions with our members in our best interest. That is why we created WA and that is why we continue to improve and evolve WA beyond anything else that is offered in the industry.

We just rolled out classrooms yesterday, you may want to have a look when you get a chance:

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/classrooms/

As a Starter, you get access to the Getting Started and the The WA Platform classrooms.

I based my comments on the ones YOU made in chat just prior to posting this. I also explained clearly in chat how you could access your training here: http://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/eward/training

can you please check my trainings and credit me for what I didn't get credit for. There is another one of my trainings that is on level 2

Credits are actually only supposed to be assigned to premium members in respect to training.

Sorry I made a mistake, I only see $5.00 for one of my trainings when it should be 10 because another one of my trainings has been on level 2 for the longest and I only see $5.00 for one.

What I was saying is that in order to receive credits, one must be a Premium member within the community. This has always been the case and I accidentally released the initial earnings. In order to receive commission for training, you must be premium. Hope this clarifies for you.

Then i feel lied to, because when i first spoke to you, you told me you get credits for referring people here and for the trainings $5.00 for every level passed. I have 1 credit and $5.00 commission for one training when I should have 10. you never said free members were not entitled to it.

if its for only premiums then I am waisting my time referring people here if I am not receiving credit until I upgrade. I might as well stop promoting

I was referring to training credits. You can still refer people and get credit for this. As a Premium you will get paid for any outstanding training credits, you will get access to the system in it's entirety, and Premium members also receive higher commissions through our affiliate program.

Very well said Kyle. You are more composed than I might have been in your shoes and my hats off to you for that but what you said and the way you guys run this place is dead on in my opinion and that's coming from a guy that is a leader and follows very little of what others are doing but in WA's case I follow because I like where it leads.

Keep it up my friend, as a premium member You have no idea how much I appreciate you protecting me from spam and guiding me in the right direction. WA has been an amazing experience for me and I'm happy you are not letting the complaints of a very few disrupt the majority who love what's going on here.

Change is good. Hang on. Things will change. :-)

The only sure thing is that things will change! Hope you come right!

Hey Ebony,

WAU is constantly evolving, it's changed a HUGE amount since I first joined 8 months ago and will be changing again next week. You couldn't try out WAU for free when I signed up, you had to splash-the-cash just to get through the door.

I think it's fantastic that now anyone can try WAU for free and decide whether or not it's for them. If they find it's what they're looking for, then an annual subscription is less than a $1 a day, which in my opinion is an absolute bargain. I pay more for my Lynda (http://www.lynda.com) subscription and use it a lot less. I also don't *learn-to-earn* from Lynda but simply view that training as an investment in myself.

Kyle and Carson are running a business. It's unrealistic to expect them to notify everyone who has ever signed up about each and every *tweak* to the site. I appreciate you're not happy about being unable to list websites or training but that's the price you pay for having free access. If you want more, then simply go premium.

Rich.






In the real business world, its not unrealistic. because, when businesses make changes to policies, they have to make their customers or clients aware. As for Wa, being a free member or not, if they can email promotions, they can do so for changes as well.

when you run a business you have to do the same. You cannot keep people in the dark of what is going in the business. It's bad business to not say anything. You will lose people if you do.

Exactly. If you become a customer of WAU you'll have those facilities. However, as you're trying it out for free you don't. I can't recall any business that sends me emails asking me as a *potential* or *actual* customer whether I mind if they *tweak* their site or not! As for the *real business world* I don't remember my local shop asking my permission to change their window display and I am definitely a paying customer of theirs!

It doesn't matter if a person is trying it out. If there are changes to the site, everybody should be made known, not just premium members knowing. It is still not right. If you want the free members to become premium, keep a good relationship with them too.

WAU doesn't announce *tweaks* to premium members either. It isn't realistic to expect them to. They'd never get anything done!

I hope it gets better for you and for me

Nice Blog eward!. It makes sense to always keep your email list informed in what's happening with your business and website. I foresee a positive change in the future of internet business, but as technology improves to help us succeed, so does the technology for criminal activity...

thats true. they will always be one step ahead.
