Frequently Asked Questions
About Marketing for More
What can I reasonably expect and not expect from Marketing for More?
You can expect to encounter stimulating possibilities for
launching or growing your business, useful how-to information, helpful resources and thorough, prompt,
respectful advice from head mentor Marcia Yudkin and other members.
On the other hand, please don't expect Marcia or anyone else
to actually rewrite your web site or create a detailed marketing plan as a benefit of membership. For one-on-one consulting
or copywriting, you receive more than 40% off regular rates.
See complete details on Basic
and Elite member plans.
Will membership
benefit me if I live and do business outside of North America?
Most definitely. Consulting clients in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Canada, and Australia have told
Marcia repeatedly that her advice and ideas apply in Europe, Asia, Africa and elsewhere. As a member from outside of North America, your insights
might be especially valuable to other members and vice versa. Please join us!
Am
I eligible for membership and Feedback FeastsTM
if I don't have my own
business?
Yes. We welcome anyone eager to learn more about business
marketing and promotional strategies, whether you work
for an organization, have a business or professional
practice of your own or plan to launch a business
soon. On the other hand, if you're trying to get
ahead in the corporate world and need help on resumes and
promotion strategies, this is not the right milieu for
you.
When
will the Feedback FeastsTM
take place?
For the first
month or so, they'll be scheduled for Thursdays, 5-6 p.m.
Eastern time and Tuesdays 1-2 p.m. Eastern time.
These times enable people in most time zones, from the
Pacific to Europe, to participate. As membership
grows, additional days and times will be added - only
on weekdays, however, and usually between noon and 7 p.m.
Eastern time. We'll be canvassing members so as to
accommodate as many people's preferences as possible.
Do
you need any special software or Internet connection to
participate in the Feedback FeastsTM?
No. In
fact, you join these conference calls using only your
telephone. We highly recommend you call in using a
land-line rather than a cell phone or Internet phone
service (like Vonage or Skype) to ensure the highest
possible phone quality not only for you but for others on
the call.
Do you expect most of the other members to be at my level of success, or lower or higher?
After we launch,
you'll be able to see the roster of Elite members to judge
this for yourself. Basic members may have less
experience than Elite members, but not necessarily.
And what we've seen in the past is that sometimes the most
insightful feedback comes from unexpected quarters,
because of a member's life experience, intuition,
on-the-job savvy or who
they know.
Is
there confidentiality in this program?
Anything you share on the members-only
discussion board is not open to public view and not
indexable by search engines. In addition, members
are encouraged not to repeat anything they'd learned about
another member to others outside the program. For
the Feedback FeastsTM, normally we do not dissect
your business in detail but rather shower you with
solutions. In most cases, there's just a sketchy
introduction of the business at hand and its challenge or goal,
and then the suggestions begin to fly from all directions.
If confidentiality
nevertheless remains a serious concern, you are welcome to become one of our
lurking members (Basic or Elite), who learn silently and
anonymously while taking advantage of the discounted consulting
fees for members, which features complete confidentiality.
I've never used a discussion board before. Is it difficult?
It may take you up to two minutes to get the hang of it. Our team will be working hard to keep the whole site functioning well and as easy to use as possible. If you're ever having trouble adding your comments to the discussion board, simply let
us know and you'll get help.
Are certain topics OK and others out of bounds at Marketing for More?
It's best to put aside highly charged topics like religion and politics except insofar as these have to do with your target market or the content of your business or professional practice. Please keep in mind that we have a diversity of members, and so long as we all remain focused on challenges, obstacles and solutions for growth, people with divergent views and lifestyles can learn well from one another.
How big do you intend the
program to get? Are you sure it will work with tons of members?
We'll be keeping tabs on this, and
cut off the Charter Membership period when a certain level of
popularity is reached. At that point, member fees will
rise, but not for those who had already joined. So it's in
your interest to join now to lock in today's low fees.
What's
the refund policy if I don't find the membership valuable?
If you join, give Marketing for More an honest try, and decide during your first month that it was not what you expected, then
simply cancel your membership and receive back that initial month's
fee or the whole annual fee, if that's how you joined.
If you paid the annual fee and wish to cancel during a
later month, you receive a pro-rated refund.
If I'm on automatic billing, will I have to jump through hoops to quit
the program?
Nope! Simply send us an email or give us a call before the end of a month saying that you won't be renewing. If there is ever a mistake in billing, please let us know and we will straighten it out for you.
Likewise, if you would like to switch from Basic membership to
Elite or vice versa, just let us know and we'll make the needed
adjustments.
What
forms of payment do you accept for people who prefer not to
use a credit card?
We
accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express for monthly or annual fees. If paying the annual fee, you may also
make arrangements to pay by check, money order, bank wire or
Paypal: Just ask.
