The last year has seen an unprecedented 20-50% increase in provider hourly rates and yet the same pitiful $25-$50 discounts for reviews are being offered. Every newbie provider in the welcome wagon acts like $250 is a rock bottom special.
It's time for the clients to be properly compensated for 1) the length of time it takes to write a review, the risk and headaches you take on in seeing newbies, and 3) the thousands of dollars you help her generate with your advertising/review.
Grab a hold of your balls guys and vow that: 1) only "No" reviews that help warn clients of bad providers will be done for free, 2) you will get a $150 discount for any positive review, and 3) all WW newbies looking for reviews to get verified and build credibility require a $200 discount for the risk of TOFTT.
Over to you Janice.....

I sent Texas Roadhouse a letter and told them it was time for a 16 oz ribeye for $5.
I sent GE a letter and told them it was time for a brand new washer/dryer combo for $250.
I sent Brighton homes a letter and told them it was time for a brand new 3,000 sq ft house for $150,000.
I sent the electric providers a letter and told them it was time for .02 a kilowatt.
Lastly I sent Beretta a letter and told them it was time for a brand new 9mm pistol for $125.
None replied. I guess they have their business model and can charge what the market demands, and it was their business model and their choice.
Then again, I could take my business and money elsewhere. I could buy the same model Taurus as the Beretta and save money if I chose to. If I don't have the money for either the Taurus or Beretta, then I should realize that sport is expensive and I need to find another sport, or go a different direction in the same sport.
At the end of the day, it's my money and my choice. The lady has her price and it is what it is, her choice.
