False advertising is the quickest way to lose good clients for ever


Even if some may think otherwise, false advertising could be considered one of the worst inventions of marketing. Certainly there are many ways to sell a pig in a poke, this can be very tempting for many. The desire to get profits on the short term may blur your mind.

False advertising turns clients away and destroys the trust they had in your company. You might get some profits while the charm is working, but sooner or later they will see your bad practices and it is unlikely they will ever buy anything from you again, you will get a reputation that cannot be cleaned up.

Think of when you have been deceived, sometimes you have even got truly angry. Now put yourself in the shoes of a client. Feel some empathy? Then you are human. Do you feel absolute indifference? Then you are unscrupulous. To make business without scruples is a double-edged sword. Think of it carefully, as acting this way can catch up with you, and we assure you it will not be cheap or nice.
