I discovered "How To STOP Refunds"!

A small percentage of refunds is part of doing business no matter hard goods or egoods...

Quality products in my opinion and experience are never a problem worth worrying about... Figure in a 2-5% possibility of returns and/or refunds and you'll do just fine on your bottom line...

Of course you can always Create a need for any Problem out there...

Everyone tells us we need to worry about the problem of theft and losing affiliate commission so there are all kinds of products/software with solutions for it... But many will tell you it's only the Smart marketers that have Created the Problem... If it's a minimal problem, is it really worth worrying about?

Anyhow that's just my 2 cents on stuff...

And nothing against Don's idea... This is for Everyone's ideas...

Back to the original thread...

If you're going to create a product, any product, you may want to research... read and make sure that you can Make yours Better than the Competition...

And in this case it's Harvey Segal's...

Thanks for responding.

I'm hearing from some of my fellow "Info Marketers" that the percentage of people who request refunds is rising and I have NOT seen any "Info Reports" on "Techniques To Stop or Limit Refunds".

With your vast research capabilities have you seen anything on this topic?

Thanks,
Don Alm

Your BookMarks must be like the "SmithSonian of the Net".

There used to be a gal on the Forums who went by the initials "TLC". She was in the East somewhere and was a Yellow Page salesgal. She posted mostly on Tony Blake's board and Bill Myer's when he had his going from Hot Springs Ark.

In fact, she was invited to be a presenter in one of the first BIG "Internet Marketing Seminars" in the UK....back about '96 or '97.

You'd ask a question and she'd have the answer and research back, in a flash.

You should consider putting your "BookMarks" on a CD and selling it as a "Internet Resource Directory".

Thanks for your response,
