I received a PM that has me a little irritated. Without mentioning the author, I would like to post a response - just to clarify my intentions.

I haven't been on this site for very long, and I don't really know any of you. Still, I find it hard to believe that this simple conversational post could bring up such a serious question of my integrity.

Regarding this "NEW ad practice":
First thing to note- it is a sales program, not an ad practice. Advertising is marketing employed to discover prospective clients - sales is what you do to convert that prospect to an actual client.

Also, if anyone thinks that I have been less than 100% honest in any comment I've posted, they are sorely mistaken. My integrity is above reproach.

I do not see my thread as being any different than those posted by people asking, "What do you do to find work?" or, "What's the best advertising that you do?" At least I stated up front that I also have thoughts and information to share - that I'm not just some leech looking for free business coaching.

I love dealing with customers, and helping them understand the value of quality tree care; I simply thought that it would be fun to share a conversation about sales with you guys.
