Is reciprocity bad for business?
Hi WA family
I thought deeply about the principle of reciprocity that is socially practiced in our various communities. I realised that taking this same principle in business may help especially the WA community at large since we are so many and having various niches we specialise in. Why would one of us then fail to realise some income when we are dealing with a variety of different human needs that some of us here could be desperately looking for? Is it a crime that one of us buys a product or service through another's website? If it's not, why are we not sharing our sites to open up such avenues of income?
In addition, I think that beyond this kind of reciprocity there is also sharing of ideas even by people in the same niche on how best to write quality content that generates and converts leads. Also, sharing info on the most lucrative affiliate programs that one can join will help others stand on their feet.
I believe if we rise together we will be able to look after our families well and also it will be much easier to help the needy in our communities. Remember we are blessed to bless others.
Regards

Here's the thing TeeMan, my niche is woodworking, but if I can't post content that gets me found when someone goes in search of that topic (key words) then that is on me. A few clicks or even sales here and there from within the community will not generate the level of success that I hope to achieve.
So we go after our target market. Trying to sell your gnarly knobby overgrown summer squash to your next door neighbor instead of sharing it while it was tender will not make you a successful farmer. (and yes that really happened to me, and I always bought it too, just to be a good neighbor)
Nice one, thanks for the lesson.

Not saying your squash is gnarly. lol But unless you are promoting an mlm your neighbor is not likely to be your warm market,
