Client requesting detailed information

[krikri]

I am sorry I have to write again if it is against the rules but you dont have to give him the details. It is your property legally. You dont know how he will use it - he may be giving away something you have woirked hard to develop or produce to many people and maybe make it less efective. A technique works best if it is known to a few people.

It's funny you mention that. It always cracks me up when I see offers from the "gurus" where they promise to tell you their secrets for making $xxxx/day with Adsense/Adwords/Wordpress/Clickbank/or whatever the platform of the day is.

If it worked so well, and you are making that much money off of it, why in the world would you want to sell your step by step plan to a thousand people and create all that competition for yourself?

Actually I know why you might sell your step by step plan to millions.

Less than 5 percent of the people who buy it will actually implement it. Therefore, you're really not risking much, especially if you're selling the plan.

But give it away. I don't think so.

I suppose you are right there.

90+% of people are looking for a program that all they have to do is push a few buttons and they be a millionaire. When they figure out it actually takes time and work, they give up.

Hi: When you see these offers, there is usually a disclaimer that says that the results you obtain may be actually different from what is advertised. It tells you indirectly that you may not be able to achieve the target that has been mentioned. The point is, none of these gurus are giving you their secrets. Please you may realize that followers or adherents of these gurus find it difficult to make it the same way the experts are doing because there is a secret that have kept from you. I will not want to mention names here but a top internet marketing guru has been reportedly known to be using a sneaky html in his links to take his affiliates’ traffic. So they will promise you millions of dollars in profits if you follow a plan but they are actually using your curiosity to market their products.

With reference to this thread, it is only a matter of legal right that she does not give her secrets to the client. It was not part of the contract. According to the post, the service provider has a NDA with the client so the provider is not obliged to offer secrets. By asking for such details, she has violated the terms of the contract.

In all fairness, the client is not entitled to such disclosures because the client has not mentioned what she needs the information for, why not earlier but now and what she intends to do with it.

And as from 1st December, according to the new FTC regulations, there more or less has to be. And they can no longer tell you about the guy who "made $50,000" without telling you what the "average guy" made too, I think? Which will be interesting.

Yes, that may be the enforcement that will finally make gurus minimize the magnitude of their claims. If the law had demanded tough answers from experts who promised "six figure income within three weeks", many people may not have lost productivity hours and money. In some instances, after you buy an ebook or subscribe to an affiliate and did not make the money, the seller will say you did not follow the rules that should have made you rich and then you cannot get a refund because you did not read some obscure, ill written Terms of Sale. It happens. So let’s see what the rule can do.
