Online Home Business Owners: The Importance of Checking References
As online home business owners, one critical task we undertake is acquiring software tools and services to enhance our operations. With an abundance of options available, making the right choice can be challenging. Some solutions are effective, but many fall short, making it vital to choose wisely.
Recently, I faced this challenge while selecting an auto-responder service. Despite researching thoroughly and feeling confident about my decision, doubts emerged. Although my initial choice was solid, integrating it with one of my websites seemed complex. Another vendor's solution promised easier integration, but I was uncertain about its reliability.
With my confidence shaken, I explored the alternative vendor's website. Although I typically overlook testimonials on websites due to skepticism about their authenticity, this time I decided to investigate. I selected the first reference from their list of successful integrations. Finding the associated website was straightforward using a popular search engine, and I quickly located the email signup section to assess the integration.
To my surprise, when I interacted with the email signup (without entering an email address to trigger a message), the service named was the one I had initially considered. This realization reaffirmed my original choice and dispelled any lingering doubts.
While these steps might seem obvious, it's easy for online business owners, myself included, to get caught up in marketing hype and overlook essential fact-checking.
How to Verify Claims
1. Examine References and Testimonials: As illustrated, don't skip over these in website content. Try to verify them yourself.
2. Peer Recommendations: See what tools other home business owners are using and ask for their insights.
3. Network Inquiries: If you're involved in network marketing, reach out to your sponsors for suggestions.
4. Online Forums and Articles: Engage in work-at-home forums or browse article distribution services like those on Yahoo Groups for more information.
For vendors, maintaining accurate and updated testimonials is crucial. False references can quickly deter potential customers.
Running an online home business is both enjoyable and rewarding, much like managing an offline enterprise. Although decision-making can be tough, one thing is clear: if a vendor offers references, take the time to verify them!
