Today I ran into something that annoyed me. I joined a site and they gave free prizes, one was a free reading by a medium whom of course I would not have heard of in another way . I clicked on it to receive it. Within the hour I got an e-mail from her thanking me. It said said she would send my confidential completely free reading within 48 hours, thanking me for my confidence and signed "your friend 'X'" (name withheld).
Then I went out to dinner and came home to find a new e-mail a few hours later, saying that she has had many requests and has had to make a difficult decison and respond to/read only for those who have ordered a Study from her. And that she will contact me if I am a client. She says as soon as she receives my request and payment she will send me a new e-mail address that she uses for clients. And once I write her at the other address she will answer as soon as possible.
Again signed "your devoted friend" and sending her full support and friendship. What a way to treat a friend!
What a way to do business! Why would I trust someone for advice on my life when they can't even keep their own word? The idea that she has a separate e-mail for "real" clients makes it look premeditated. To me the whole thing is irresponsible. If I promised something I would do it, even if I had to have a waiting list of a few months. And if I did not have time I would remove myself from the free bonuses of that site.
It just struck me as really not the best way to get new clients. It sure does not inspire trust right from the start. Wonder if people actually take her up on it. To me it looks like another one of those things that give readers a bad name.
What do you all think?
