I made this ethical move because I think the fear and scarcity mindset is harmful for us, and should be unnecessary to market truly valuable products and services. I’d like to see fear-based marketing become, instead of the accepted norm, a red flag to make people suspicious of the true value of a product.

I am making the ethical move because I want everyone who buys my services to have 100% clarity about their investment. I want clients to know they can trust me and my fee structure without any need to haggle or bargain or have difficult conversations.

I aim to introduce a store to my site in the near future and I don’t believe in the manipulation that seems common nowadays to make a quick sale. I want to focus on providing value and authenticity over misleading my audience with the aim of a sale.

I am making the pledge because I teach these concepts as a conscious business coach, and have been so saddened to see people be manipulated by unethical marketing tactics. We can do better as an industry, and it starts with us!
