You should expect honesty.

When you're trusting someone to help you build your career, you should expect them to be as honest and fair as possible.

Here's what you can expect from this program.

No Suppression Tactics

1. Honest Marketing

I'm not a professional marketer, but I've had to learn a little about marketing to create and launch this program. I have to admit that I'm a little disheartened by what I've learned about traditional "marketing culture".

So I've decided to do things a little differently.

Aiming for total clarity

It's important to tell people the truth.

"Marketing culture" is too comfortable twisting reality into whatever it takes for them to promote and sell their products.

In the BA training space, this often comes in the form of creating false backstories to seem more experienced, credible, and authoritative than they really are. This helps them craft the narrative they know you're looking for when trying to make a decision.

Other marketing tactics include the obscuring/concealment of relevant facts, the promotion of false/toxic positivity to get you in the "buying mood", and the selling of false hope to students.

Here, you will get total clarity.

No underhanded sales tactics

There is no material difference between a product that costs $1,997 and one that costs $2,000.

There is, however, a very significant psychological difference in the way you're likely to perceive these two prices. Most people will subconsciously feel like the first price is significantly better than the 2nd price, even though it's not.

Our minds are wired to take these types of shortcuts in decision-making to reduce fatigue, and many marketers are very comfortable exploiting these shortcuts to sell you their products.

A tactic like this is intentionally designed to trick consumers, and it impedes your ability to foster a voluntary relationship with your mentors.

It may be considered standard practice among traditional marketers, but we're setting a higher standard for how we behave towards you.

 

2. Fair Refund Policies

Just because you've given your money to someone, doesn't mean that you should feel stuck.

In fact, many governments have instituted consumer protection laws to force companies into offering a mandatory "cooling off" period allowing consumers to back out of high-ticket purchases if they have "buyer's remorse".

BA BLOCKS will abide by the spirit of this, even though it's not a legal requirement for the program.

Easy refunds

Everything you purchase from BA BLOCKS is fully refundable, no questions asked.

It can be nearly impossible for you to get a refund from a company, even when they claim to have a "generous refund policy".

Many companies have made it standard practice to impose conditions on their policies that are nearly impossible to satisfy to actually trigger a refund.  Often, this is a strategic decision on their part to allow them to market their refund policies while giving them the latitude to deny refunds at will.

We're here to change that because that kind of refund policy is exactly the opposite of what is needed to foster a voluntary relationship.

Fair for you, and for us

Everything you purchase from BA BLOCKS is fully refundable, no questions asked.

To request a refund, all you need to do is to submit a request within the refund period using the instructions defined in our refund policy.

There is a small minority of people who make it a habit of exploiting refund policies to elicit services without taking on the responsibility of compensating the providers.  Our refund policies are designed to prevent this kind of behavior, but those barriers will never constrain your ability to request and receive a refund.

This is fair for you, and for us.

3. No Suppression Tactics

Lawyers are clever and can come up with very creative ways of pinning consumers into one-sided situations that limit the consumer's ability to maintain free, open, and voluntary relationships.

In many industries this kind of practice is illegal:

Attempting to silence consumers from posting an online review can undermine fair competition. Banks and financial companies that include clauses in form contracts that forbid a consumer from posting an honest review may be engaged in unfair or deceptive practices"

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau - United States Government (Source)

But there are no such protections for the consumers of BA training programs.

This is why we see legal clauses in purchase agreements that are designed to constrain students who may have fair criticism of a training program they have paid for.

Here's an example:

This should help you understand why you never see critical or negative reviews of some BA training programs.  Some businesses are very adept at filtering out fair criticisms using legal constraints called "gag clauses", while simultaneously amplifying any bit of positive news they can find for their programs.

This skews reality.

It distorts the important signals that consumers look for when trying to make a purchasing decision, and leaves students like you entering into a relationship you may not fully understand.

Things don't have to be this way. 

When you're putting your trust in people for something as important as your career, you should expect a base level of honesty.

And it's also a critical ingredient of the career success you're looking to achieve.
