We’ve all experienced a sales page that made us feel uncomfortable, or read some copy that explained to us why we’re failing as a business owner, in an attempt to make us feel bad enough to get us to purchase something! This is the exact reason that ethical marketing has developed – making your potential clients feel inspired to buy from you from a positive place rather than a negative one. I’m glad to see that ethical marketing is becoming much more popular, but if you’ve still got a few marketing tactics that make you feel bad, you’ll want to listen to today’s episode!
