It Pays to Provide Honest Reviews

Yes, of course there is a LOT of junk products out there on the internet that are being offered by popular marketing websites.
And, I’m sure that those platforms were initially simply intended as a means of offering vendors with an easy-to-use method of selling their products online.
However, now the Big 3 most popular platforms today are being accused of offering nothing but junk, and that is not the whole truth.
There are the hidden gems that are being offered on all of them.
It is up to buyers to be aware, right?
So, then be sure that when you find those hidden gems that you provide them with an honest review, and not “paint them with the same brush” as many of the other vendors on those platforms.
To provide a dishonest review for a great product is being as dishonest as many of the vendors who are knowingly offering crap products.
This is why it is so vital that we, as honest affiliate marketers, MUST provide honest reviews.
In most cases, this would mean that when beginning your new online business, you will need to actually purchase the products that you want to review. Else, how would it be possible for you to be honest about your reviews if you have no access to the product.
I’ve seen some reviewers suggesting that you can copy other’s reviews and offer them as your own. And personally, I believe that is being dishonest.
In a recent course I am just finishing up on, I learned a very valuable lesson.

Even those products that cost us a mere $10 US funds… those that you and I may simply shrug our shoulders at purchasing… they can be very costly purchases to some buyers in other parts of the world. You know, in countries where $10 might be more like a week’s wages.
So, you don’t need to spend a lot of money to start learning to review products that are being sold online. Honest reviews that will help other potential buyers to NOT waste their money.
It truly takes TIME to build up an honest reputation online, so don’t go squandering yours by providing phony reviews.
Those hidden gems really do deserve great reviews so to encourage honest vendors to continue offering honest to goodness products, right?
As I’m sure that you will see for yourself that those hidden gems do NOT promise their buyers great riches, but rather they simply offer to teach you something new.
And, wouldn’t YOU want to learn something new for a mere $17 to $47 US funds?
Back when direct mail was the “in” marketing system for making money from home, it was said that if you spent $1,000 Canadian (of course, because that’s where I live) on a course, and only learned ONE new thing that you actually got what you paid for.
Not sure about your experience with courses nowadays, but sometimes I’ve had the good fortune to have been able to learn more than one new thing from courses that have only cost me $17 US funds.
Given the cost of a college and/or university degree, or a night-school course for that matter… those hidden gems really can become useful to you and your reviewers, once you provide your review on them.
By providing honest reviews you can gain a reputation for honesty (PRICELESS!) and… as you BECOME known for your honesty, you could easily gain a small but quality email list of followers who trust your judgement.
It is said that the money is in the list. But… having a LARGE email list that needs replenishing with new email addresses of potential buyers on a regular basis can become exhausting quickly. So, don’t be so quick to sneer at a QUALITY list of 100 potential buyers who TRUST you.
This is why I say that it pays to provide honest reviews.
Wouldn’t you agree?
